Inheriting Kinlist

Postby DaniAngione » Fri Jan 06, 2017 8:05 pm

"I do not know you, but I knew your father and he was a friend of mine. So are you now."

A simple suggestion;
Allow us to inherit the dead character's kinlist as well when creating a new character. Have all of them indescriptible until we meet them in person - but at least added.
Would save a lot of annoying work but - most importantly - would allow us to keep ties with people we've met more randomly.

Memorized only characters should be wiped, since they're only in the memory of the dead and were not their kinsmen.

What we have can only with mental gymnastics be called permadeath, I don't think more nerfing would be nice.

I agree, then again the "punishment" of permadeath should be gameplay oriented, not spamming-everyone-in-skype-with-"what-was-your-hs-again?" oriented.
This is just unecessary dumb work.

I second. Or they could add something of the likes of material account, that you can prepare when your character is still alive and would have to update as you meet new people.

I have sympathy for both of these arguments.
