Horses and Oceans.
Posted: Thu Dec 06, 2012 5:31 pm
Some things that would make a fun MUD even better:
Whaling, shipbuilding, scrimshaw carving, player owned ships and fishing boats- for whenever you all get around to building the ocean!
Maybe some of those elemancer Aeromancy/Hydromancy skills could aid in altering currents and winds for sailing ships.
I love that Clok has horses! Horses would be even better if you could train them for different purposes and breed them for desirable traits. I don’t know how doable that is in this game, but it would be fun to have player owned stables and training pens. I suppose you would have to speed up their aging like you did with the crop growth. Equine gestation is 11 months, and you shouldn’t start riding a horse until maturity at 2-3 years or you damage their bone structure.
It would also be nice if you added gender into a horse’s description. All warhorses should be stallions, standard riding horses should be mares or geldings.
I’m new to this game, but I’m enjoying it quite a bit. I’ve played GS on and off since 2001 (mostly off, due to the price), and haven’t seen another MUD that interested me until this one. I think I read most of the previous suggestions; hopefully I’m not repeating what other people have already requested.
