- Phasmatis forcing you to do some stuff Downtown seems fubar, he wants Trestkon to visit Kashue and start helping PDX ASAP.
- I don't think I really like the idea about an insult contest. It's funny, but it's a little out there (okay, the whole mod is, but I think this may be even further out there ).
- Personally, I think Revenge of the Llamas and Apartment Adventure would be the quests to use. The Downtown sector has no sewers, I haven't the faintest idea where you picked up that notion, Shane.
- A gatekeeper could work, but I prefer making the ticket REALLY ridiculously expensive and changing it to a one-month pass instead of a day pass. Something like 1000 credits would make sure the player has to explore most of the map and handle all of the missions.
- Random idea: We shouldn't rule out the option of just asking people for money. A few lines of conversation could enable the player to convince somebody to loan him money, and this might have some small neat consequence in mission 22, where he can choose to pay back the loan or not. jimmycracker comes to mind, right now he's just a random NPC with some barks, we could use him for anything.
It is made clear that Deus Diablo is not invulnerable anymore because he is no longer within the atmosphere of Forumplanet (he is on the space station). In space, his moderator protection does not apply, this is the reason Trestkon needs to get up there and save him, because PDX believes WorldCorp already sent Kylie up to kill him while he is vulnerable. If you work for WC, Scara informs you that you must kill DD while he is on the space station, because if he returns to the surface, it will no longer be possible. In other words, yesWhy isn?t Deus Diablo invincible when we meet him? Is the player told why?
Hm... I wonder this myself. I distinctly remember taking this into account, but I don't recall what I decided or whether I implemented it. I gotta look into that. Off the top of my head, I'd say the staff can grant a user access to leave the atmosphere, and this is done when you bring the staff back to Kashue / Scara. After that, it won't matter if you throw the staff away.What happens if the player doesn?t bring the Firestaff along with him?
Thanks a lot for all your great ideas guys, hopefully we'll definitively figure something out tomorrow
