[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 9504471, member: 93670"] A hypothetical way of mitigating that power creep through the use of timeskips & [I]extraordinarily[/I] long periods of rest/downtime. There were misunderstandings or bad expectations that hooked onto discussion about the wider impact of how doing that would make shorter lived races potentially take the form of multigenerational things with slight[I](or significant)[/I] changes individually feel a bit mayfly-like while the longer lived races might stick around through a few generations but feel the inverse with the world itself moving on during those [I]extraordinarily[/I] long periods of rest/downtime. That kind of mitigation would also carry a goldskink along with that mitigation by making things like wands/potions/etc for healing & whatnot massively bulk purchases capable of recovering in hours/days at great cost. Someone felt that was somehow infringing on their (hypothetical?) character concept (and should not join a game where such a method is used or should be expected to adapt to it if they do join) [/QUOTE]
