| Summary | 0008056: Fame! | ||||
| Description | Scores and multipliers are great. You could almost certainly pivot other things on that core idea too. Some sort of system of fame within the world would be brilliant, for example - where you start off as a relative unknown (with an appropriate title and reactions from NPCs/enemies/etc.) but become increasingly well known throughout the world. You might even then have enemies react to you based on that level of fame, making the game harder. At which point you definitely COULD give the player bonuses for their longevity to offset the heat you've generated. ... That would let us build in a system of: 1. Named ranks for hero fame, as you noted (which people would love). 2. Extra monster agression and difficulty arising from increased fame (thus making death truly inevitable and keeping a character around for a really long time a tricky proposition -- and yet more reason for the Retirement scrolls mentioned elsewhere). 3. Some minor benefits from fame for your character, so that you feel more powerful and special from the fame even if the world is ganging up on you because of that fame. | ||||

I'd want some way to "diminish" my fame if this was the case (not directly tied to my score as per the linked suggestion.) Off the top of my head, the most probable way of doing this would be some way to "mask" yourself (and maybe throw in a "who was that masked man / woman?" NPC conversation line if you rescue someone while masked and then talk to them unmasked :P). Faking your death might be a good way to get rid of fame while keeping the same character too, though you might find some NPC's finding you suspisciously similar... |
