The New Player Experience
-
Literally no clue what HellzYeah is referring to when he says "everthing that is written down about the setting points toward these two factions having a major conflict". Nothing in-game suggests this.
-
I think Hellz brings up a good point that the "New Player Experience" (NPE) should also teach a player about the setting. Starter quests should have dialogue that refers to the houses and other such factions in both positive and negative lights so that when a player is given the option to join one of them at the end of the quest chain, they already have some idea as to which sound like a good fit for their character.
-
This is a neat idea. Anyone volunteering to take this on?
-
I'd be happy to write down some dialogue and submit it for review. Someone else would have to copy-paste it into the module, though.
-
Perfect. If you want to string together an interesting quest progression and some IC guidance from a new player POV we can flesh out the details (if you are unsure) and add it to the module as we can.
-
Sounds good. I'll try to write something up over the next few days and PM you on Discord.

Went ahead and updated the dialogues since it was taking a while.

the real bench mark for success is if you seduce a puffy pc or npc

Since it seems I’m back for the time being, I’d like to take a crack at this again, unless anyone has objections.

Puffy said she updated stuff, granted that was in July and maybe things have changed some.
Players still have the option of spawning in the Faceless where there is a fetch quest that gets the player to explore parts of the city.
There are "Help Wanted" signs in the middle of the first area players encounter after leaving the Faceless for the first time. There are also "Help Wanted" signs outside the north gate.
Several other quests say in their dialogue things like Lana (Potion Shop Quest): "Well, I can fix that up in a jiffy! Here's your reward! If you need more work, there is a nervous halfling just to the South of here needing some help."So I think most of your idea has been implemented already.

Yep, there is a little merry go-around of hints where to go

Missed that comment, lovely to see.
