If there are going to be fantasy metals, limit it to the familiar, please: mithril. All dwarves should approve of that. (note: we should also get dwarves to be able to mine and work with it.)

I mean, don't we already have meteorite iron? That's kinda almost mythical imo.

I'd rather see "mythical" items that alloy with regular metals. Rather than mythril being an ore, make it an iron + magic fairy farts alloy instead. I think the concept of imbuement suits this world better than just more ores.

Just don't call it mythril please. I love H&H for standing off the beaten track. ^.^
And here I should apologize for my spelling... But I won't! Deal with it :P

...this is a good point.
Total misplay.

Yeah, I really don't like the idea of simply borrowing metals from already existing fictional universes (some of them might even be copyrighted I assume? idk).
But I'm all for a new rare ore or two. And also would make sense to see some of the stones that are already in the game to become ore of according metals.
Like microlite > tantal, zincspar > zinc.

The number of zelda items in this game is just...

And then there's the "Starcraft menu"...

Nothing staying off the beaten path here, just a unique mashup of things that has made a great game.

Would it cause your character to shrink and grow copious amounts of facial hair?
