Posted February 3, 2021 A small info box on what that skill does is enough. Maybe an example or short line of what to expect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 3, 2021 +1 If not just for the lore factor, I think it's a worthwhile idea that'll help newer players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 9, 2021 +1 For example, meditating isn't the most self explanatory skill. You know it probably involves meditation, but not that it's essentially a skill tree that comes with important abilities like faith. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 9, 2021 skills used to have the mini wiki taking care of this... and that had more than 1 line of text... it was very useful.. and didn't require constant opening of browsers.. to read a wiki.. you could learn the basics from a small dialog with summed up text, for the full version.. there's the wiki rip that useful feature this is only going to give another cryptic sentence.. making new players ask more questions in ca-help or google details about what they have just read Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) -1 There is already way too much unnecessary hover text mucking up the view and creating irritating visual noise. Those who want info on skills can and should go to the wiki. Edited February 9, 2021 by Minnie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 12, 2021 Many games have optional newbie tutorials and explanatory text that can be turned off when the player advances far enough to not want it any more. The wiki is great - I'm constantly looking things up there - but I've often wished there was some kind of minimal in-game information about things. This seems like a good idea to me. But I do think Minnie has a point - it would have to be done in a way so that people who don't want or need it anymore aren't bothered by it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
