A new structure called taverns that can be built in player cities, hamlets and villages and also added to existing racial cities and wilderness banks.

Inside we can have a bulletin board that has a random quest generator that sends people out on quests that use the local npcs in the area as quest givers (kill, delivery etc).

Also there can be a bounty board that tracks the top 20 notorious criminals for the area based on how many racial enemies they have killed. Murderers that are red won't be left out and can be tracked and bounties set on them as well. All bounties reset after death of person holding bounty.

Also inside we can have social mini games like beer drinking, liars dice, dwarf tossing, chess, checkers, arm wrestling etc. and the ability to place wagers on said games by the players.

Food and drink would also be served. It would be a place to sit and chill with your friends to and make new ones after a long day of fighting, grinding etc.

I think this will give players more ways to interact with each other in the game when they need a break from gathering, crafting and pvp.

Also the local random quest generator would add to the pvp in the area.

 Not a bad suggestion it would add something the game lacks in ways and thats something to do in the downtimes.

I think every MMO I've ever played has seen this suggestion and I'm all for it. I don't think Darkfall will be the one to successfully put it in the game though.

It's PvP oriented, and RP repellent for the most part. I think there are probably ways to implement the tavern idea in a winning game, but it takes dev resources to do right and I'm not sure the payback are there for them to do the work.

AV actually made a thread requesting suggestions about how to add RP elements to the game so perhaps in a future patchxion we might see something interesting (Not talking about the november patchxion)

P.S: Patchxion= Patch and Expansion, because people are actually arguing about which one it is.

If we go with Patchxion it actually saves us a lot of trouble.

Patchxion it is.
