Re: New Infinite Apocalpytic Procedural Ascii Game "The Wastes"
I agree with Catfish on this one, keep the modding.
That being said, I did rather like the idea of starter kits for the game such as starting with slightly better gear or slightly worse, or modding yourself a starter weapon, which could be noted in the graveyard file, indeed it'd be nice if the graveyard file could note the starting weapon as well as the one you died with just for comparrison, eg "insert player name entered the wastes wielding a (insert name of starter weapon), and when they died they were swinging around a (insert name of weapon they died with)"
That way it would also be possible for players to track their progress and for others to see if they'd used a mod or one of the starter weapons, and how, sinse a graveyard file which shows someone who started with no weapon or with a bent spoon doing 2 damage would be viewed differently to someone who started with the almighty boomstick of blagging doing six million damage with six million durability.
I will also confess myself, I'm not a fan of modding myself an uba weapon for the same reason I stopped grind mining, sinse I just like seeing what weapon comes up and how lucky I get and find that the game is less interesting without that aspect, ---- but hay that's me, and if someone ones to start with the ultimate sword of power fare enough to them, it's not as if there is a competitive scoreboard or anything.
