Worship +

Postby Zentetsuken » Tue Mar 30, 2021 2:35 pm

There are already a lot of worship themes in this game, namely the ancestral worship and prayer system and its coinciding buildable objects.

I would like to suggest that we extend this theme atleast a little bit with the following;

- a prayer emote.
- simple wooden pulpits and lecterns
- an altar table with an inventory like a dining table for a table cloth and various decorative items of our choosing
- fancy ciboriums and chalices
- more generic statues and effigies
- cassock robes, or atleast a more proper looking robe
- crosiers, maybe both wooden and ornate precious metal


the big ask

- a temple building

I understand that freeform building has been on the table as a potential future addition for a while now, but I suspect that a pre-existing building like a stone mansion could get reskinned with a simple temple design for this purpose while we wait for OCO and its respective additions.

Haven Hearth is a game with a world inspired by Slavic and Germanic myths. I'm not an expert in that, but I know that Slavs doesn't fold they hands and pray in a temple. They are dancing, celebrating together in nature.
I don't feel like it is something really fit in Haven and Hearth realities.

Agreed.
jorb: I don't want *your* money. You are rude and boring. Go away.
Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

You are both simply incorrect and the "It doesn't fit the theme" is a tired, old response. We have oodles of content that is relative to the time period beyond pagans dancing in the forest. Realms with crown-bearing royalty is a pretty easy example. If you wouldn't like to use content like this you don't have to vote against it you know, you could just not use it if it gets added?

The Christianisation of Slavic and Germanic culture sees a massive overlap of many centuries where both their own highly spiritual beliefs as well as Abrahamic ones were widely spread. Pagan, Indo-European belief systems and Christianity all had gods, spirits, temples, iconography and pretty much everything I suggested. I didn't specify that any of these things needed to have a Christian cross on them, just that having these objects in any form would be a fun addition to the larp.
