I'm creating a game with quests but no combat. It's gonna be strange.

Oh, and the quests have no rewards, because there's no gold and there's no XP.

Are you sure it's a game?

It's maybe probably a game. It might actually be a game OK I'M NOT SURE.

Prey did immortality very well in my opinion, so that's something to consider. as for the lack of standard rewards, any for that matter, what would be their purpose then?

Edit: Since I have you on skype, we can bounce around ideas on that one some more.
Sounds interesting. Although no rewards whatsoever sounds disappointing ..
Good dialogue would be reward enough, though. If done properly, of course.

What genre are you shooting for? I've loved a few games which passed on those standard battles and rewards (almost) completely

Sounds like something I would be interested in playing. o:
I don't think all games need to "reward" their players as long as the experience itself is interesting/fun.
Sounds like your average point and click adventure game.

Yup! Except there's no pointing and clicking, and you can do the quests in non-linear order I guess are the differences. Plus you have no inventory.

I'm not shooting for any genre, lol. It's just a random thing I guess.

It's probably going to be weird haha.

That was the idea. Why does gold and XP always have to be the motivator? Why not something else? Then again... what else? Hahaha

Personal satisfaction.

Actually achievements, nice shiny achievements are good.

I was thinking of adding puzzles but then I thought "wouldn't that just make it like all the other games"... this one is going to be weird and different and possibly terrible. It might have puzzles but we'll see.
