Dark0ne Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I'm finding myself with more free-time to think about what I want to do with TESSource as the release of Oblivion looms (namely during my lectures) and am thinking of coding a player-profiling site, or addition to TESSource that will enable people to make a profile of their character. I'm thinking they'll be able to add pictures of their character, give the name of their character, their official forum name etc etc. What sort of things would you like other people to read-up on about your character, supposing you'd use the system? What sort of features would this system need? Should it be a part of TESSource, or linked to TESSource but a seperate site (ala The Mod Site Creator). Help me out here ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampede Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I think this is an excellent idea Robin. I am positive from what I have seen in the Stinking Barfly it would be very popular amongst the users. Personally, I would include a bio with my character.

Dark0ne Posted October 13, 2005 Author Share Posted October 13, 2005 Just to clarify, this won't be for the role-players as such, but for actual player profiles of people's characters in Oblivion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaanicOne Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 The Idea sounds very good to me! Go for it boss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if you look through the Barfly posts, you will see that many users are acting out their PC and Xbox personas. They put a lot of effort in characterisation and background.

loveme4whoiam Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Indeed Stampede, the brief forays I used to make into the Barfly (narrowly escaping with my identity intake I might add) the amount of characterisation is intense. Since the detail of the graphics has gone up so much as customisation of looks is alot higher people will love the chance to show off themselves. Including a bio with character pics and stuff is a good idea Stampede. Maybe you could include an area to fill in detailing the accomplishments of that character in the game, which can be updated as people play; you know, level in a Guild, number of deer (or whatever) killed... that kind of thing. It'll also save on the bragging posts that you just know will pop up saying "Well I've got the male without a father Sword of 1110ness, beat that". Snazzy idea Dark0ne, like it alot. I can see your lecture time is being used to its best :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KzinistZerg Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 Most definetly an aweosme idea- i'd sure put my stuff up. Maybe a place to enter stats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povuholo Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 would be cool to be able to "upload" your character to the site. Make a little background story, your biggest acomplishments... And there should be a bar saying: I used a cheat!!! when someone used cheats to get strong :D Information about your character, how he/she looks like, being able to identify all the items the person is wearing.. Just some wild ideas... Good idea anyway, hold on to that idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabbemaster Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Sounds great =) It would be nice if you could make a place where we can brag about our unique items to :-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveme4whoiam Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Who new that in reality all MW and (soon) Oblvion players were really hyper-competitive ego-maniacs? :P Well, I guess we all did really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
