Nyhilisa Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Need some advice. Hoping people will actually answer, so here goes. (opinions are what l want, really.) First, the basic idea behind what l'm asking: l'm building a housing mod thats a bit different than the ones l normally see. It's a crypt that was taken over by the previous owner, and customized to his/her/it's own specifications. Furniture, display, worktables etc. Thing is,w hen the player gets it (still need to figure out possession, but anyway), there are hints of the owners less than appetizing activities. Specifically, experiments. Some of them still happen to be alive, but are non-sentient. Given that they would (theoretically) be different than the normal versions in game, would you find it immersion breaking to see different names? Or would the visual differences speak for themselves? At this point they obviously wouldn't be people names, but would descriptive names be immersive, or break it for you? Also, how much would human remains put you off in terms of a house you use, if you had the mod? consider necromancer type stuff. (l'm leaning towards a different type of experiment, but it's something l want to consider.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaptrixie Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I don't personally think it would break immersion to have more descriptive names for them. Also for me personally, I'm not sure I would have my character live in a house with human remains scattered about. There would need to be a way to clean it up first.

Nyhilisa Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Kinda what l was thinking. I did start thinking about using journals to detail some of the experiments tho. Probably going to stick to live animals etc, rather than human remains - l have no talent what so ever with scripting, so thats probably for the best. Lol.
