the_logos will become famous soon enough
Well, again, I'm not interesting in discussing the details of light systems, as they're not relevant to my point. There are enough MERC players out there that I'm sure the system has its fans, and that's all the justification one needs really.

Same with food, and yet I know that I, personally, always enjoyed having to eat, regardless of whether my fellow players did or not. So while it may not add to the gameplay, it adds to the experience (for me, and for others one presumes), of which the gameplay is only part.


And that's your preference. I haven't played your game, but that aspect of it would turn me off as it sounds overly-tedious to me. That's my preference. I enjoy being equipped for dungeoneering, but I really don't want to worry about unwielding and unwielding constantly anymore than I want to worry about wielding/unwielding whenever I want to eat something or whenever I want to do an emote that couldn't "realistically" be done with a sword and shield in hand.

It's all just preference.
