| | | Black dye - am I imagining things? I have a problem that’s been bothering me for a while - at the very beginning of my adventure with TQ I spotted a black dye in one of the shops, and I remember it was so expensive I had no chances to buy it. Weeks have passed, I'm filthy rich but since that one event I have never encountered a black dye in shop again.
So, does it exist but is very rare, or is it just my imagination of a newbie player setting me up with false images?  |

| | | It probably does exist, but it has no real purpose other than changing the look of your character, which has never mattered in video games IMO. |

| | | I'm pretty sure you can buy black dye from that shopkeeper you get the quest to find. Maybe that's the only place it's available.

Shilpa, I'm a guy and my character's look matters... I just wish that the dye affected the look more. |

| | | My $0.02 I also noticed it early in the game and have not seen it sense. I have not really looked for it since. Glad to see someone else noticed it.
Avatar appearance, IMO, does matter. Many game designers know this an incorporate it into game play. I know people who spend a great deal of time looking for an item for that reason. It's like reiteration...it can be an important part of making a statement whether that statement is aesthetic or content driven, where reiteration counts for incremental validation or to build on a theme. Some people need to hear a message embedded in a strong theme rather than what they might perceive as an idiosyncratic rogue comment  Ok, sorry about the overkill  | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
