        ngl, 10/10 would play Norwood again.

        But I agree, it would feel šŸ˜ž if some people could play their characters again and others could.

        Am very interested in old men.

        Not like that you freaking weirdos.

            I actually would prefer folks who played the first one to not have any special cookies at all.

            yeah, this is def what I meant specifically by ā€œweird dynamic.ā€ doesn’t even matter if it’s true or not, there would probably be a perception that old players are being favored in ways newer players couldn’t have access to, which breeds resentment and bad feels all around. like, I get that you’re not going to avoid that being a thing anyway to whatever degree no matter what you do, but imho it’s better to head the visible stuff off at the pass.

              Not to be that guy but I wonder whether this would not be better placed in the Game Gab section rather than the advertising section.

                Depends on the region. Arx doesn’t have nobility any longer, and hasn’t for quite a long time. Luxen is a republic, and recently overthrew their nobility as a counter-revolution to a coup attempt. One very significant NPC polity is a mercantile oligarchy. Arx 1 was the entire PC population underneath a single crown, which was held by a PC. This is very much not the case here, as the different regions are very much divided and separate states, and no PCs are in control of them. But even for the feudal other states, they each have some quirks that probably aren’t quite how people would think of feudal, like in terms of succession.

                I like that no PCs are in charge of any of the states. Leave room for people to be movers and shakers, but don’t create a reliance on waiting for a PC to make a decision that impacts an entire nation. Big šŸ‘ from me here.

                    All this talk about connections between Arx 1 and Arx 2 makes me wonder if an archaeologist type character would work in Arx 2.

                      boo to the idea of any characters from the first game being player characters in the second. big boo

                      I’m not going to begrudge anyone if that’s the route they want to take, but probably not something I would do.

                      In this case, it probably might make it very clear from the jump that it’s not going to be an option for returning players.

                        @Pavel I agree. Is there a way to branch the discussion over there or would someone need to make a specific thread for Arx 2?

                          Yeah branching would be good.

                          NGL I get hives at this much input about a new thing when the thing hasn’t launched but
                          maybe Apos doesn’t care.

                          Also @apos I wish you well, some cool stuff here.

                          I want something else to get me through this
                          Semi-charmed kinda life, baby, baby
                          I want something else, I’m not listening when you say good-bye

                              @Third-Eye For what it’s worth, from what I’ve seen, this is basically all setting and premise, the stuff that’s just going to be on the website once the game opens. No real spoilers, since the non-Arx powers are open for player characters right off the bat.
