#3900, "Thank Goodness."
|
Most of the points you have made in this thread are not discussed in the helpfiles, so I am glad you set the record straight.
And, of course, I apologise for equating Outlander with Sylvan II; many of us as players assume that they are revamped Sylvans, when it's an entirely different concept in its own right. It's only natural, since our first reaction is to compare it to Sylvan. I hated the idea of categorically being labelled a defiler on the basis of race, with no regard to what the character actually does.
The reason I am so bent on understanding these fine lines is that I suspect many player characters in Outlander will still adopt race-based philosophies -- and that effectively, it could be played as Sylvan II (which sounds like what you do not want). Am I correct in assuming that Outlander is NOT Sylvan II?
All the same, I am happy that you have shifted the emphasis more toward actions, instead of race. I also like how Outlaw is more expansive, allowing them to be more contemplative naturalists -- not necessarily anti-"defiler" drones in chameleon suits. It sounds like a much deeper concept that should add more RP layers on top of the senseless PK that we enjoy.
Oops, I said "defiler" again!
I suppose the next step is to try it out!
