[Rejected] Leave realm now - be rogue
« Topic Start: August 02, 2019, 12:17:07 PM »
Why no can say, "No more this realm. No more this lord"? If is oath, oath is said thing. Break oath also said thing.

Why must always travel for other place, give sword?

Feature Request: "Quit realm button". Makes rogue now.

That everything.

The game is designed with the explicit expectation and intention that nobles will belong to realms as the default. It is not desirable to make it easier to be a random rogue running around.

If you want to play a lone wolf or ronin samurai, then your options are a) play an adventurer, b) belong to a realm and do stuff on your own as long as they'll let you, or c) go play Dark Souls or something, because BattleMaster is a team game.

The problem is, that's an extremely niche situation to be in, while people wanting to be a lone wolf ninja are a dime a dozen. It invites abuse, and is not a generally helpful feature.

It's not something I'm going to say I would absolutely never ever do, but even if I approved it now (which I won't), it wouldn't be implemented and sent live in time for it to help you if you actually want to leave a realm right the hell now.

I don't see why this would be necessary at all. What kind of situation do you find yourself in that you need to vacate a realm that very turn? Most of the geography of BM lets you reach another realm within a day or so of traveling.

This sounds like it would be used for the sole purpose of dodging bans.
Admit nothing, deny everything, make counter-accusations.

Don't really see any point of this feature. Can be abused while doing very little.
