Anyone who says it takes away the fun to have directions towards the obscure but necessary aspects of the game clearly has forgotten what it is to be a newbie and wholly mystified that woodsman doesn't work on some items and does on others, or that sorcerors cannot wield pickaxes, or that warriors can't hunt as effectively as wizards, or that swords are sodding useless on wolves, or that you need to be at least level 5 or peaceful to enter a dungeon, or that you need keys and a superhigh level to get through a haunted house, or that overall levels boost your hitpoints, or that all scrolls and potions are temporary unless it's a special kind of icon, or that poison food can be uncursed, or that teeth can be identified and sold.........
Kingdoms = unfriendly to newbies. There are two solutions. One is you can direct newbies along the path to midbieism. The other is that you can be no systemic help at all, and just live with the constant masses of "WHERE DO I MAKE MONEY FAST?!?" |
