/hug! Kitten it! I kitten people all the time iRL and in-game. So do lots of other RPers. How could this have been left out to begin with?

I support your enthusiasm but I don’t like /hug (or any other emote that forces you to accept ‘touchy stuff’) unless you can toggle acceptance. Some people I just don’t want hugging me!

I respect your desire to not be touched. Give the player a “Don’t touch me!” option.

I agree. That’s what I meant by ‘toggle acceptance’.

Not to harp on about chairs, which I think are a basic in any game, I found it strange there was no “thanks” or “goodbye” emotes? I would think those would be kind of basic, too.

Had some gear in my bank from a character who had dyed it Sapphire blue. That character was deleted and started another, who has equipped that stored gear. Now.. can’t change the color of anything. Everything I have her equip ends up Sapphire Blue, even if I remove all color and start over. I don’t even have Sapphire Blue in the current palette of colors!

Someone mentioned barber shops. Loved that in WoW. The abundance of dye colors is awesome in the game but would love to see something like the clothing system in LotRO. Best I’ve seen to date.

I’d throw those into the request too, but heck chairs and darts would still be an excellent first start!

To the poster that is afraid of RP elements. You don’t have to use them but why deny them from those of us that feel it enhances the game. Hack and slash, though fun, gets old fast. The more interactive, the better.

Unfortunately, things like that only strengthen the community if the community is RP-minded. Personally, I’d love to see stuff like that; pragmatically, I’m happy to accept that it’ll be a low priority & we’re unlikely to see any of it any time soon.

Rp-minded or not, the ability to interact with the environment has always been a plus in an RPG, MMO or not. It adds dimension to the game, regardless of ability or willingness to RP. Clearly you would want that ability should housing come to fruition. It seems like a natural to me.

Title says it. The world of Tyria is so beautiful, and I’d like to be able to enjoy it in more ways than just action and combat. The game seems almost too fast paced at times, and I’d really love some downtime.

A major improvement in my mind would be if chairs were interactive, so we could sit in them. There are interiors in the game that are so breathtakingly beautiful and I feel it a shame that players are unable to utilize such environments. The hunting lodge for instance, in Queensdale.

Other things I would like to see perhaps, are the ability to play an instrument, or play a game of darts, or maybe checkers… be able to smoke a pipe, or sit down and have a drink. Things of that nature. Things that will implore us to gather and bond in a different way. I believe role-playing elements like these, really strengthen a game’s community.

Thanks!

Brilliant! Sit-able chairs would be great! Just last evening I was thinking it would be very nice to have something like chairs so you could sit around the taverns. The idea of music, games you could play with other players, smoking, all lend to deepening the game experience and a sense of community. I couldn’t agree more with this post.
