Wouldn't it be sweet if musicians could craft CD's to sell?


There could be so many factors... the CD's could be used to repair mind wounds, or to increase stats (as food does), or just as a way for the player to hear music while they're traveling. I think the 'just to hear music' purpose would be the best, as it does get lonely running around the forest all alone.


Novice Musicians couldcraft basic solosingles, with strings of flourishes over a simple tune. As you get higher up Musician, you could craft multi-track albums, with the number of parts allowed on each trackalso increasing as you went up in level. Just as songs sound cooler when there's a whole bunch of musicians playing, the CD's would sound better with more artists in each song.


The CD's might have charges, like stimpacks, that get used up each time you play it. Or they could be permanently reusable, and cost a heck of a lot to buy. Or they might just have a time decay so one CD would last you 7 days from first useor something.


I think this would open up an entire new way for musicians and others toenjoy the game. What do you think?

I like your idea... and I also do not like it.


NO one will ever visit a Cantina anymore if they can carry cd's with them

What if the CD'swore out quickly, or wouldn't heal Battle Fatigue, or wouldn't heal at all and were just for the purpose of hearing music while you play?

wow that would be fun. I think the "charge" idea works the best. and maybe limiting it to wounds or battle fatigue but not both. or maybe just have it for fun. I'd love to record some of my songs. and maybe it would display the lyrics as well.
