Proposed mod - universally persistent player bodies

Post by InconsolableCellist »

I thought it'd be neat and add some creepiness to the game if when you died the location of your body persisted not just in your game, but any version of DFU that's opted into a universally accessible bones file.

You'd be adventuring in some dungeon and see another player's corpse, perhaps as one of the creepy dungeon sprites (a hanging body, skeleton in a cage, etc.)

I suppose loot shouldn't persist, or maybe it should, but only if the player is playing in a permadeath mode?

The next step would be to create a shared graveyard file online where users automatically upload and download bones. Maybe with some limit on places like Privateer's Hold.

Ooh, or maybe they should appear near castle Daggerfall as headstones?
