Thoughts on Shartak

• There is no ability to experience playing as another class unless you create a new character (This isn't at all uncommon in MMORPGs, though a noticeable change of pace from Urban Dead)
  • Allowing reincarnation as a different type or class?
    • Only you lose all your items and earned skills.
    • Will ultimately lead into some players requesting that their character be reverted.
  • Allowing ascension as a different type or class?
    • Will ultimately lead into some players requesting that their character be reverted.

• The leveling requirements increase over time, rather than a flat rate for skills (This isn't at all uncommon in MMORPGs, though a noticeable change of pace from Urban Dead)
  • This causes players to think carefully about the skills they invest in and the roles they want to play.

• There are NPC characters and animals
  • As someone that tends to avoid participating on PvP servers, I like having the option to attack something that is not player controlled.

• There are fixed respawn and starting locations (unverified)
  • If there is ever a population imbalance, one type may succeed at repeatedly spawn-killing the other.

• Limited information
  • Everything is new! I truly feel like an explorer.
  • I am unable to plan ahead my moves. I am heedlessly plowing straight through the jungle.
