As we go into A19 planning, we have some questions for you. Aside from the usual big items (Mac, PC, Multiplayer), what could we add to Stonehearth that would most improve your enjoyment of the game? Let us know!
To be honest, I’m so distracted today with how bogged down the AI gets in the late game (idleness, weird pathing problems, etc), that I have a hard time focusing on new features and functionality that might further enhance gameplay.
But… as I sit here typing, these things come to mind:
-
Mining:
** Improved digging capabilities like a stair tool for mining that allows for upward digging.
** Procedurally generated caverns to discover, uncommon/rare loot, rare mining ores/gems and game uses for those items (socketable items, fancy late game capabilities etc). -
Procedural ruins to discover/explore/loot.
-
Water
-
Weather
-
Docile but Agro-able wildlife
** Defense of the young when you get too close
** Defense of home territory (think critters living in ruins, etc) -
Evolving flora and fauna so the region changes organically as it ages.
