(dan comstock is a nerd) so i think we should all try our best to lean towards fighting in such a manner as to provide a more immersive environment. without losing our effectiveness. | ||

  Registered Member #10 Joined: Mon Aug 08 2011, 03:45AMPosts: 270 | Up in the Northeast, I've noticed a gradual shift over the last few years. People used to say "got it" every time they got hit, now they tend to say "Ouch" or wince or something to that effect. Nobody's winning an oscar for acting like they just got slashed, but it's nice to see combat RP slowly winning out. The more you do this, the more people around you will do it too.

Maybe try looking at it this way: in the fictional world of Tyrra, "ultra light" weapons are the result of modern metallurgy techniques - swords actually do weigh less than three pounds! Tyrrans have arteries running all over the surfaces of their bodies (except their heads, hands, neck, and groins), and most knockouts's are actually caused by blood loss. So on Tyrra, stabbing somebody in the foot is just as likely to kill them as stabbing them in the chest. This amused me. | ||
