Magic / Demonology?

[Lexxy]

Just to clarify, by magic I mean pew pew fireball
and by Demonology I mean resurrecting the dead, summoning demons etc

as someone who enjoys capturing townsfolk, I would definitely enjoy tearing out their souls or watching them set ablaze
also cooking marshmallows on banditos would be sexc
thoughts?
also if anyones got a mod for this gimme gimme pls

its already confirmed , Magic will not be in the game.

maybe you might be able to Mod it in for yourself though, not sure how hard that will be since there is no animations, or area effect, and dead in Kenshi stays dead since the body is removed from the game over time. and believe that is hard coded into the game.

Though with skins you should be able to add in a new race.

[Lexxy]

eh, could give it a go.

i've been working on a shield mod for a bit but i got unmotivated with the whole thing when my hard drive exploded and deleted half of the things in it, including the mod files for Kenshi

modding maeks my cri

Whenever ranged weapons are introduced, perhaps one could model a different texture on to missiles and add particle effects to them or make bows to take on the appearance of staves and such. Could possibly try that with turrets now to have them fling firy arrows, or something else entirely.

Just a thought...

Why did you choose black as your text colour? Makes it really hard to read

The only problem with PnzrNorm's idea would be the lack of animations, but I also can't think of a different way. Maybe don't raise your hopes too high or you might get dissapointed.

Yea, if we aren't going to get magic I would def like some kind of ranged weaponry aside from the wall defences. If there's ever an implemention of thievery and key opened chests etc, using some form of torture would be cool (one of the aspects from demonology I was thinking) but less demony, just chop their nob off or something

[Hatsune_Neko]

thievery is already planned and being worked on.
we already have lockpicking and i already had my front gate lock picked by a sand ninja.
Wildlife now sleeps, shops close at night and many more features.

a ranged hand crossbow is planned as well

Cannibals will be able to chop off parts of you and eat it. which leads to the possible limb replacement system thats planned.

this is all shown in the main web site.

i can't really see this idea fitting in with the Kenshi universe too well. I guess you are wanting more Shadowrun than Kenshi?

I could see it in a mod, but it wouldn't be easy to make. It probably wouldn't be worth making until the game is better developed anyhow.

No kidding! Black on dark gray?

Re. magic, I much prefer a SF game. Does every game have to be fantasy, complete with magic? Of course, these days, we're seeing lots of SF games. (I'm loving it!) And your preferences don't have to match with mine.

But one of the neat things about Kenshi is how different it is, how unique. I've never played anything quite like it. IMHO, adding magic would be a terrible idea. But with the support for mods, you can probably add magic, if you want it. Or zombies, or anything else.

Could you explain what a SF game is?

First thing that came to mind was.... *shivers*... can't say it.. I'm pretty sure he wasn't meaning that though..

[Tolwrath]

Street Fighter? Are they still making those?

Sorry, my mistake. I spend a lot of time with the Classic Science Fiction Yahoo group, so I just automatically used the abbreviation, I guess. That was dumb of me.

Anyway, SF = science fiction. Kenshi seems to be set on another planet, with alien creatures, and I haven't seen any fantasy elements to the game. I like that.
