Flavor text to guess wolf's personality in Befriend
Posted 2020-12-14 23:50:56
@Spear - The fight and befriend sometimes come in different orders? :O I didn't know that! Anyway, I agree, flavor text was just the best I could think of. It could be based on a visual hint when seeing the wolf, but you can encounter wolves by other ways in Explore that don't show the wolf's image.. Hm. I don't know. |

@speedyscout Yeah! I have no idea why. It doesn't seem tied to level or personality but I've seen the order as both "Fight or Befriend" and "Befriend or Fight" I was really disappointed when I went for when my hypothesis failed. Anyway that's off topic |

Maybe have it be something that unlocks as a purchasable optionat level 10, or 15 successfully befriended wolves. Something like: Having encountered many wolves, you hear tales of one who could teach you to better read new wolves, at a price, of course. Do you wish to seek them out? and have it cost 250-500sc to unlock the ability to gauge a wolf, with multiple flavor texts, such as As you move to greet the other wolf, they seem to be judging you or Greeting the other wolf, they seem distracted by a butterfly or The other wolf's fur seems to poof up slightly as you greet them or Approaching the other wolf, they appear to preen a bit under your gaze. Maybe have four different flavor texts per personality category, with one being rather obvious and others a bit more open to interpretation |

@ Orias -- I really like the flavor text you suggested :O However, I'd prefer that this feature, if implemented, wasn't locked behind a paywall, even if only costing SC. But I definitely like the texts and the idea for having 4 per personality category. :) |

Yeah I agree with this! You can make it into a puzzle and keep the element of challenge without making it entirely based on luck and chance. The one time I saw a NBW that I really liked, I lost her because my first move was incorrect - one mistake and that's it. I've also had an encounter just yesterday where I technically made all the right moves but apparently didn't choose all the most effective ones each turn, because the NBW still refused to join my pack and left. That is especially frustrating. |

@Cucheallaigh -- Exactly, really annoying! That's why I think that this would be a good solution, while still being vague enough that it's not got a 100% success rate. :) |

I play a bit different from others My reactions are based on how my own main wolf would be realistically Sha is territorial and warns other wolves, often a loner that you can befriend, to watch themselves. She's seen as picky and protective. Wolves who are somewhat respectful, submissive and/or just avoid her are let be while others who threaten her or try to attack are fought and possibly killed Having a flavor text could give enough of a hint for Sha and my other future wolves to better decide on how to handle a loner XP But that's my end tbh |
