What do you think the game would be like with life bars and attacks?

[lugailover]

I agree with this, at some point;
but I would want an option to turn it off, example; trolls would come up and attack everybody, also with what Emily and Kaharu said, FeralHeart is a roleplaying game and life bars I wouldn't like.

If there WAS PvP in the game, I would certainly turn it off to chat with my friends instead of trying hard to avoid people who want to attack people untill they are dead and/or pissed off.

Very nice idea, but I don't think this would be possible.

It most likely could Silver, it would take a long time though.

I know XD. When I learn coding fully, then something like this may come out (but it'll be years). (Yes, I am going to be a software/website developer)

I think FeralHeart is a game where people can chat with each other and make roleplays. They can do different things, create different characters, and the only barrier is imagination. But life bars... I don't think they will make the game better. Simply running around and killing people isn't wery good, but if they add something like experience bars and awards, it would be better, I think.

What do you mean by "Experience bars?"

[varvorn]

I mean if they will add life bars and fighting, they must add experience. If someone kills prey or another user's character, he/she gets some experience. This experience can be used to increase your skills and even "buy" items

Seems worthy

Indeed.

Example: the experience bar demands you get 2000 experience points to be able to further enhance your skills and 'buy' items. To achieve this, the player would go out and kill creatures to receive said experience points. Each creature would give you a different amount of experience points (e.g. a rabbit gives you 50 experience points). It's pretty similar to the experience systems MMO(RPG)s apply to their games (e.g. World of Warcraft, Guild Wars, RIFT, ...).

I do think, however, that experience bars should not be applied if we go with this idea. It would immediatly defeat the purpose of the game and turn it into an entirely new one; people would be more focused on enhancing their skills and getting items rather than roleplaying.

I think life bars and attacks are a great idea, but they should either limit it to attacks like the ones in Impressive Title or the ones OP stated. Perhaps they should add a little bar that sinks into the bottom of the screen when dismissed and can be brought up again when the player feels the urge to hunt that contains abilties much like the ones the OP stated.

Yeah. You're right
It's a very good idea and I hope that game creators will apply it and bring this system in game.
