Subject: Re: Gems!


Ya, I knew that. Actually, you don't even have to click to pause it,
you can just click done and come back. But, once you log, you have
to start a new game. But why would multiplayer be pointless? In my
mind, they would just make it so you have to start a new game with
another player so that both are starting fresh. I think that it
would be fun :)

I'm glad that they added Gems. I know a while back, many players
were requesting casinos in towns so that they can gamble and play
games. They said that it would be too buggy and exploitable
possibly, but I think that Gems (and other possible future games) is
a good compromise. The best things I can see about it are... Camps
will become much less boring, when you still have to stare at the
spell books with pre-35 casters, waiting for group
assignments/buffing on raids, etc. Although, like you said. People
can die if they aren't paying attention and just playing Gems.
