Hamlet - Dynamic and Immersive NPCs?

[firepixiedarien]

Will the new Hamlet Defense have NPCs that actually run away from the hamlet yelling for help as one of the indicators that the event is happening?

Seeing a mother running away while carrying a child in her arms would compel adventurers to take part in the event more than seeing text on a screen like Behests.

On that note, will the Battle Wardens from Behests be dynamic as well? These are events that only happen at specific times, they're supposed to be a break from the monotonous grind. Yet the NPCs that give them have no sense of urgency, they just stand there lifeless yelling text on the screen. Make them wave their arms, give them voice acting that you can hear if you're close to them.... something!

Agree, behest should be more like a hunting commission that can be undertaken at any time.

I'm getting kind of fed up with the timer and limitation nonsense.

I really don't see hamlet being as dynamic as that, NPC's in this game are extremely boring but agree that they should add some life to NPC's in general not just for behest and hamlet but in cities also.

I just hope the duties for DoH and DoL are meaningful in hamlet defence because we need something to break the monotony of crafting, something like a mini game to fix NPC's gear.

Who are the NPCs in Hamlet? Rosencrantz and Guildenstern? The Ghost?

Yea, it will be really immersive when you see the exact same mother carrying the exact same child running away from the exact same threat x100 times a day. Oh, and the voice acting would be so good because they will eventually cycle back to "...then I got an arrow in the knee!".

Wow. me and you agree on something.
