Starting scenarios

[Marcuss2]

The idea is that you can choose if you start as Leader of big faction, man/woman captured by slavers, n00b (like its starting now), hero, bandit squad leader...

I think you know rest!

No heroes remember?

No heroes remember?

I mean you start as hero who dont have any special abilities, so hero will be good in fighting for example. I dont mean heroes from Da Melder Papers V: Kenshirm, or Goablo III.
You start for example with stats on 50.

That sounds pretty much hero to me.

I have been working hard with only one squad member and my skills are between 40 and 49. (Expect for katana that is 50 and strength that is enormous.) So that's not very easy to achieve and after that he will be pretty much kicking ass.

Then what's the point? That would only really be for starting off being a superhuman killing machine to goof off with, I do like the idea of having starting occupations, but i still say start at the bottom. If a trader, start with a small backpack. Captured by slaves, you start in a slave convoy. You get the idea

Also I have no idea what you're trying to allude to with the Skyrim and Diablo off-names.

Yeah, that'd be awesome! You could start off in the middle of nowhere surrounded by angry bandits, or in an abandoned hospital with amnesia. Amnesia... ooohooohoohoo

No heroes - noted, still starting scenario - captured by slavers sounds awesome, and starting with stats on 20 will be better (if you play demo, you could only start as n00b)

Im still pretty new with kenshi, but at least i got full version and squad with stats on 20

I like the starting scenarios as in a rpg element so you can choose your origin, but not as in "here have some skills bro!", maybe a menu where you serect some of yor character story and those options slightly change your skills, exemple: ex-bandit:+2 strenght +2 sabre +4 attack skill -4 engeneering -4 field medic - "x" in some determined factions relations and - "x" in the honor/moral system to come.

I like the idea but you always have to start with base stats. You dont start games like Skyrim with all skills level 50. I takes away gameplay. It also makes it too easy. I think maybe starting with something like the guy above me suggested would be fine; +2 attack and defend and -4 engineer/medic. Or even just starting out in the middle of nowhere instead of the starting city would be neat. But never even level 20 stats.

Starting out as a bandit would be neat because you would start with different standings (mostly bad standings) which would act as a sort of hardcore mode. Anyways - just dont mess with the stats unless you're talking less than 5 stat point change. And even that's a lot. Training dummies only train up to 10 so that would sort of ruin the point of then existing... I know i'm rambling but i hope you can make sense of this.
