Comunity Repo

[xTrainx]

From jorb stream and from loftar answer in forum, i have noticed something. Many of the things that they would like to work on are not sure to have a inmidiate payback, or are too much for them to handle constantly and so they dont bring them to life.

This is one of the issue jorb have stated he have with the cosmetics. And when asked about events and such, loftar answered he would need a lot of personal working on it constantly.

Given the 2 man team intends to stay as such, i would like to propose a solution to this problem in the form of this: Open a repository for people to work on projects for haven and hearth, and if possible the tools the dev use to work on those projects. That way an user could for example, work on an ingame hat he would wish to buy, or see ingame, and upload it to the repo, and when he has free time in his hand, jorb would come take a look at it, refine and change it as he see fit, and then use it for the shop or whatever.

However, it would not be limited by a repo only for the hats, but also for example, creatures for events, maybe special quest systems, structures that can be pasted into the map (for example dungeons), and all kind of mesh that could be used.

All this would be made for free for users that wants to contribute, and it has the objective of more or less "aliviating" the workload of jorb and loftar, and make things that were previusly imposible, have a shot at getting introduced into the game

So like steam workshop but for HnH and the devs can approve/fix it before it goes live.
I am not opposed to this. Many MMO Private servers have done things like this to great success.

IMVU and (2nd life shivers) are the king of this, idea, people pay to get there mesh in game... people pay to give them texture (to the company and the dev that made the mesh), then people buy it.... but thats there whole business model past perks....


Haven & hearth adopted some of that might be fun, but idk how effective it could be given the amount of control are lovely deving set would love to do have.
