@ morbo -> well guilds i believe can still play a vital role in DD2 though ultimately how much it can affect the character(s) & main plot will have to be larians' decision. as for disguises, well that's where charisma-related skills can play at its most relevance. imagine u're already a member of say assasins guild & wanted to infiltrate the thieves guild, which happens to be the opposing guild. u can make use of diplomacy/charisma skills to get yourself through without raising alarms or suspicions. much like the idea of Arch-Priest who's at the same time Chairman.

@ kiya -> that's impressive lineup with racial emphasis! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> u know, the way i see it, the whole faction thing can be summed up using venn's diagram. that means one can belong to a faction, a race, & a guild all at the same time.

will post more on this. i have something to do now. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
