Greetings, /tg/.
I wish to run a Civ Thread with a slight twist. Let us commence.

And suddenly, you were.
You're sure you weren't before.
Yet here you are, all with skills gained without practice, adults without childhood. You are capable of bending reality itself with your collective willpower.
You all lack a body, though. You all form the one that comes most natural to the group.
Upon completion, you look at each other and yourselves. You are:
>Humans, creative and adaptive.
>Elves, magical and graceful.
>Dwarves, unyielding and strong.
>Other (Specify. Anything is possible, but evil races, Demons especially, wouldn't make a lot of sense.)
This intro is just to tell the story of the Universe's creation and to make some decisions on the creation and starting build of your Civ and isn't going to be that influential, race aside.

(My phone says the full Civ chart is too large, other half coming up.)

>>30547629

>>30547683
>>30547731
Humans - 2
Dwarves - 1
Dragons - 1 (Not sure how to run that, but I'll give it a shot if the votes decide so.)
Humans are in the lead, definitive votecount when I finally find the other half.

Finally found it, and Humans it is.
Tad useless since race has just been determined, but fuck it.

As you realize you must band together to thrive and utilize the collective willpower, you decide upon a government. You choose:
>A King. One man is not in conflict, and unification is key.
>A Democracy. All people are important and must be represented.
>A Theocracy. You accidentally create a Deity, through sheer force of will, and upon discovering it worship it, with its priests guiding the group. (Create the Deity).
>Other (Please specify)

Okay, cool, but you are required to speak with an Internet-Russian accent, komrads.

You decide that, as all men are equal, each should take care of all.
You produce goods according to skills and take according to needs, ensuring a decent life for all.
(Tell me if this is not communism, I've got this from Wikipedia as I'm not that great at specifics of political systems.)

You now realize that you are in nothing, and decide to bend the universe to your will, so that you may have a place to stay.
You form huge city in which to dwell, surrounded by:
>Forest, with a ready supply of lumber and lots of food.
>Plains, easy to build and farm on.
>Mountains, with stone and minerals.
>Other (Please Specify).
>>

Oops, I'll fix that, my bad.

You live and thrive for ages, although your ability to manipulate the universe weakened with the generations, devolving into Magic.
Then they came.
You're not sure where they came from, but they arrived and devastated your city.

It's the filthy capitalists!
As none of you can fight and the city's surrounded, you duck into the secret cellar of the tavern, built to hide expensive, but empty at the moment.
Miraculously, you are left alone. When you emerge, the city is in ruins. You look around, but the enemy is nowhere to be seen.
You poke around in the rubble a bit, and find something useful! You find:
>Ten swords and ten sets of leather armour on dead soldiers.
>A bunch of tools and some seeds, in a destroyed collective warehouse.
>A bunch of scrolls, instructions on how to cast a lowtier spell of your choice, found in the razed wizard's tower.
>A set of scrolls, instructions on a lowtier technology of your choice, found near the Inventor's guildhall.

Disregarding that one is free and one is subscription, Wakfu has better animations and quality. And our Ecaflips are cuter.

Technically they are also different mechanically.
>>
Make that around 15:00- my friend just told me a meeting was scheduled without my knowledge, sorry.
>>
>>30550506
Aren't they both subscription based ? I haven't played those two in such a long time...

Fuck you now I wanna re install them.
>>
>>30550711
Apparently it is sub based as well. I can thank my friends for that information then.
What do you play?
>>
>>30550812
Xelor, before they started nerfing the shit out of them... again

Never got into wakfu much, was still in beta when I stopped playing.
>>
>>30550929
Does it have balance issues?

I hate trying to get people to play this game with me, because they don't want to pay for it, don't want to level a bunch before the better parts of the game come into play, and then they may not even like it at that point.
>>
>>30551110
>Does it have balance issues?
When I left dofus was nothing but a giant ball of balance issues. They kept changing classes entirely and it never seemed to work out.

It's always hard to get peeps to play MMOs, that and Ankama only seem to develop grindfests
>>
>>30551281
Huh. Well. There's a couple classes that have the short end of the stick, and the two solo grind kings got hit by the nerf bat recently, but I don't think Wakfu has any glaring problems with it.

If nothing else, I'd like summon osa's to have an easier time early on, because all the cool low level monsters are locked from use, yet for some fucking reason you are allowed to have a Black Wabbit or an Okushu (shushu) at level 100, and then buff the fuck out of them.
>>
>>30551411
God dammit. Fine. I'll install it. Serv ?

Are summons the least bit useful at high level ? I remember no one using them because they made combats last far too long;
>>
>>30551582
I'm not Nox. I am planned to try the SEA server, Because its free and in english, I don't fucking understand why, but I have no idea what the community is like, and community in wakfu is kinda important.

Considering this dragon osa in my guild is doing superb damage using a single summon in place of dragon form, I'd say they are pretty damn good. Only issue is that summons are stupid, you CAN control one of them at least though, but they love to run over the difficult area tiles for no reason, and also leave enemies alive in favor of attacking a different one.

On the other hand, 5 Black Wabbits.
>>
>>30551681
>I'm not Nox.
Freudian slipped so bad, I derped a whole word. Go me.
I'm ON Nox.
>>
>>30551681
>community in wakfu is kinda important.
Welp, then I'm avoiding the french side like the plague.

Is Nox international ? I forgot that game had region locks all over the place.
>>
>>30551890
Its NA afaik. I don't know just how different Dofus is, but in wakfu theres a shitload of benefits for being in a guild, which goes in hand with needing at least 3 people to competently level at the standard pace. The ecosystem would also suffer if there wasn't people to replant after greifers go clearcut jungles and such, much like Wakfu Island ironically.

I don't really give a fuck for the politics, but its part of the game.
>>
>>30552066
That's pretty similar, dofus doesn't have an ecosystem to ravage or replant tho.
