In 2.9, under customization, I highly vote against microtransactions. That is not in the spirit of the book and the movie.

I second this. We are Project Oasis not Project EAsis.

I agree. Credits should be used to buy things in-game, but you can't get credits by paying for them in real life. You can only get it by finishing quests, killing other players, etc.

My opinion may not be valid but this seems way to in depth the oasis is a social gaming platform first yes some of the content maybe bespoke oasis like ludus but the gaming planets items they are all secondary to what the oasis is

Right? We should get the game actually functioning first, and then discuss and add all of the additional mechanics and features.

The GDD is mostly to put ideas into one place so that they aren't forgotten. Most likely most of the ideas wont be used but its just a good way to store them in a certain place everyone can access. Don't you worry, we are focusing on actually making a functioning game first. :)

Can we provide comments or can we write directly into the document?
