Know what would be nice in future games like Divine <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> 2? The choice to be one of the 7 races! Each one could have its own specialty. It doesn't even have to replace the classes either (so there could be Imp Warriors, Orc Warriors, etcetera).

It would also be nice if the dialogue and way people react to you will be affected by your race. There could even be racisms (like an Elf in a Dwaven area and vise versa, or an Orc in a Human area and vise versa, etcetera). People could say nicer or meaner things to you. People could have a much lower or higher friendliness level. Many things. Much fun! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" /> Even more, if you prove yourself to someone who was racist against your race, and you work with/for him/her and gain trust, they could say something like <Dwarf: "I guess I missjudged you, Elf. You're not so bad after all!">.

Oh, the possibilities! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> All the wonderful possibilities!

There could even be a specialized race quest line (you know, a groupe of quests only for a certain race - for example: "You are an Orc, and the Humans are attacking one of your encampments. Go help them!" or "An Orc again, why is your race at war with the Humans? Why has your chieftian suddenly taken on a bloodlust? You should investigate at what his motives really are and see if the humans really attacked first. They didn't have any reason to, and he (your chieftiean) has been acting very oddly lately..."

You can't see it, but I have a nice line of drool leaking down my chin. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Thinking about these ideas, possibilities... its... magical <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mage.gif" alt="" />.

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

So, Larian Studios, I submit this idea for the future. Think of the possibilities... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/idea.gif" alt="" />

Killerzzz

P.S.: Think about it...

Your right...i made a post simliar to that..but i agree its a good idea. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

yes if i do think back... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> (OUCH thinking hurts the brain) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ouch.gif" alt="" /> i can recall that someone did post something simalar to this topic.

Oh, really? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohh.gif" alt="" />

My bad then man. I didn't know... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

Killerzzz

P.S.: And I was soooo pumped about it... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Well at least you have a sharp brain <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Thank you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Killerzzz

I totally agree- I didn't like the fact that you were forced to be called pigskin all the time.. I mean, think of all the mean names the races could call one another, and we were stuck being the piggy humans that everyone looked down on!

Pigs. I hate pigs. Pidgeons would have made more sense. They can reproduce at any time in the year- we're the only other species that does that. >_> After all, that is why in most fantasy games the humans outnumber other races.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ohh.gif" alt="" /> Urm.. anyway.

What race would you be? I know I'd be an elf.. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" /> I'm always an elf. They're so puuuurdy..

Elves? They're gay! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

It depends on what I'm playing. I usually pick human, but as said, it depends on the game (differenses between races) and on what I'm going to play (an orc rouge?). I take elf too sometimes <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />.

Übereil

Yea it depends

Paladin-Human
Barbarian- Orc/human
Rogue- Human/Elf
Fighter- Dwarf/Human/Orc
Mage- Human
Necromacer- Orc/Imp
Assassin- Imp/human/Elf
Cleric- Human/Dwarf

Roughe=halfling! Preferrablly a girl named Charlotte the Harlot <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> (after the Iron Maiden song, yes). Apart from that, as said, it depends on the game.

Übereil

Will we have halfings in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> 2?

Elves gay? You say that as though it's a bad thing. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kitty.gif" alt="" /> Not that they are. They're just prettier than pigskin humans. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shhh.gif" alt="" />

I bet they'd make the best mages- all those years of practicing.. And a halfling thief would be formidable. You can't catch the freakin' guy!

I wonder what it would be like though if you got the choice of being a Deathknight too?

Yes, theft would suit a halfling well, or a goblin. In other rpgs that I've played the max of a skill that one can reach is really determined by the class only. It would be nice if the race was taken into accound also. That would make the character more unique <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />.



I think it would depend on the story. I'd imagine, that if the players say, got the choice of being good or evil, like in "Might and Mgic 7", evil being a deathknight, maybe one of the the main goal would be to save the baby or something. Then, afterwards, carry the baby safely to a "secret" place where it can be raised and summoned. Plus, as a deathknight we'd get to explore places other than the Rivellon (including the Wastelands) as we know it, and vise versa. That would just be awesome.

Acually, I think that would only limit the caracter, since then you can't make that dwarf thief you allways wanted, since dwarves has limited thievingskills etc. Remove the classlimitations instead, only add bonuses for race and class, THAT would give you allmost full freedom of your character <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />.

Übereil

Very true <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thats what I was saying <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

The attitude of different races could be raised similar to the way its in WoW, maybe...
If you do certain quests for certain races, theyre attitude towards you will be better, or other races will disslike you even more.

I think we should only make different playeble races if its good in the plot...
but i would surely like it more then without the races.

grttz

dude i have never ever even thought about that man that would be cool!!! and yes i hope so!!!

Maybe the halflings will mostly be imps...after all the are small...and in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> they seem to be very trickey and love pranks.

Imps Rule!!!!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mage.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

Aren't Imps magical pretty much at the beginning?

Come again?

i think imps sck and that they should all be burneddd...mwahahahahahah...

They are kind of annoying, aren't they?

They are very annoying. And they become worse when you find an imp army.

With The Sword of Gods in your hand though, you can really make them suffer <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />

*cough* an imp here is also very anoying <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> heh mr T-spam?

Hehe, that's why he's an imp I guess <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> Flix flax, my [nocando] <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

I dont know but i think the best thing in divine divinity are the many possibilities and choices and... you know. I hope that div2 wont be a failure

In fact the previous topic about that is on the same page... its called ..'wid suggestion' you can look at t if ya want
