I guess we’ll have to be really Devoted to those factions then
I’d assume there’ll be some new NPCs added to the game, plus they might make it like on Diablo games, where a few random NPCs can spawn on random locations near a certain dungeon entrances or just around the map, whenever you enter the game with your characters, and they can offer you quests to do some random work for them, like kill a Hero monster, kill a few members of x faction, etc…
One request, please, don’t forget about scrollbars in faction’s description. I already see that for example Russian translation requires more space that is presented here.
This Faction system sounds like its going to open up Grim Dawn in profound ways once it gets going… it sounds like it may be the very thing I hoped it might possibly be. And it also sounds like the sort of hugely ambitious stretch goal you talented developers might pursue if everything worked out correctly (which it has!).
Will there be any overhaul tweaks to how Faction Relationships are increased/decreased? As it stands, every kill in an enemy Faction, be it a common enemy, an infrequent, or a hero, results in only one reputation point. It’d be neat if different enemy types gave different amounts of reputation for slaying.
I wonder if there is a possibility B24 come out on Valentine’s Day. Something in my head tells me its possible. As I translated the texts, there already are many game characters done by now…
One thing that’s been bugging me, though, since I started playing is that your relationship with enemy factions (Aetherials & Cthonians) will worsen over time and you can do nothing about it. So it’s basically a matter of time before it gets to the nemesis level. I don’t see the point here, as there is no choice.
Doing special good faction-given quests to get to unique gear, get special recognition, stuff like that, is absolutely wonderful! For an ARPG especially! But I just don’t see how the enemy factions play into this.
I would see that if you could do some quests that favour the bad guys. But that’s not planned, to my understanding.
