Sewers shortcuts, extra content.
« on: September 07, 2014, 11:01:03 am »
It crossed my mind today that it may be nice to have some hidden (sewers)
tunnels which can be spotted with high (investigation,perception), they can serve as shortcuts to the
areas or links between different city parts.
It can be dangerous to walk those tunnels but when you defeat guards ( some tzimisce constructs ) which not every time gonna be there , it can speed up your game much.

First i think that will benefit Nosferatu and make them more interesting to play and secondly it will be just a nice
kind of expansion for current sewers concept.

Another thing will be to have places full of rats (  but like 30-50 of them in one place  )
Other purpose than a free food is to have some feel of obscure and unpleasant areas.
Those rat colonies can actually,  when you feed , harm you as well so it can be kind of a fun to feed on them .

What you think ?

It sounds cool, especially because Nossies shouldn't be able to just catch any old cab anyway. :D

It would be cool if it was designed so you would be able to quickly enter the sewer and jump to another map, or if you wanted to - to scout around for rats to eat and other secrets. I say this because many games initially make you work for these pathways you use, but then they make them annoyingly long every time you slogged through them, it would be a shame if the new sewers became tedious if you have to run through a labyrinth every time you wanted to go to Downtown.

I would love to see Nosferatu maintaining their network in the sewers by the way. Right now they just sit around and look important.

There was a cool saying I heard once - " If you look ahead and see nothing, there is a 50% chance you are looking at a Nosferatu straight in the eye"
