One of my character's ran a kitchen, but also had stores and rooms available for rent. Things were going nicely, for a time, but there was a problem with the key/lock system that granted someone access to all the rooms. My character was a nice guy on the outside, but being a fox, he had his scheming side as well. When it became apparent that someone had a master key to the entire burrow, he jumped at the opportunity and robbed all his shops and rooms blind. No one ever suspected him, because he seemed so nice. Really, though, he was a swindling thief. To his credit, he didn't intend to rip off all of his renters, it just so happened that an opportunity came along he couldn't resist.

Fooxer: Honest occifer, THEY were begging to be robbed!

Yeah, HrH could really have benefitted from a maximum inventory capacity to prevent thieves from looting places blind. Since, you know, just about every character was a thief as long as no one knew about it. :P

But if we're going to discuss characters, I'm still a big fan of my uber warrior-rat who lived in a secret room he discovered in an old abandoned burrow. He had a few misadvantures during his stay at HrH, such as the time when he followed a "thief" into "his" burrow and knocked him out as he attempted to "rob" the occupant, only to be attacked by the occupant and promptly knocking him out too... Well, unsure what to do after that, he stole their keys, looted the storage room, and locked them both inside. Fun.

Although, after that, he started being followed around be so-called "bounty hunters" looking for a black-furred rat. My rat clearly had brown fur, as I always told them, and therefore couldn't have been responsible for that particular robbery.

In the end, most of his misadventures consisted of taking out "thieves" and looting them, although I really don't think that most of his victims were as thiefishly inclined as he thought they were... Oh well!

But he was a pretty uber rat. He knocked out two bounty hunters attacking him simultaniously, knocked the stockings off an obnoxious disarming bunny, and eventually saved up his loot and exchanged it for enough supplies to move far to the west and start a mining community. However, over-trusting his miners, he left the supplies open for them to use and returned later to find that his vast array of supplies had been emptied over night. Hrmm...

Ah, but we'd be Xoomer, not Fooxer. ;P And what do you mean horrid? Think of the icons we'd create, if our mutual lack of motivation didn't do us in. >.>

How do you expect to duplicate it if you didn't get it?

I don't think you understand just how complex a game like that was. It was a great game, and had a lot of hard systems, like weather, cold, heat sources, magic systems, a smithing, scrounging and climbing system, it was incredible.

This isn't a personal insult, but I've seen your work, and it's nowhere near the calibre of producing anything remotely resembing a blatant rehash of HrH, nonetheless a bastardized imitation with no foresight or guidance, not to mention original thought.

Can you even name two of the species in the game?

You asked a hypothetical question in another post recently that hinted you were doing so.

Who uses hypothetical questions really intending them to be hypothetical?

Look around on the forums, how you answer code help questions, how you post code that doesn't work. That's where I drew this from.

Yes, I've been there all day searching around..but I cant find any screenshots anywhere.

Ermm....Ok.

No, not even remotely, and there is an edit button.
