Marketing - Githubissues

Liareth commented 5 years ago

If we want this project to succeed, we need an audience - the only way to build one is to spread the word. We have a lot of time to do this - we're a long way away from release. Some ideas:

Dev blog. This might be particularly alluring because our code is going to be very different to any other server out there.
Promotional material. Screenshots, videos, descriptions, etc - this might also be appealing because our mechanics are very unique. The closest server to ours, SWLOR, is much closer to the base game than we are - we're revamping almost every core mechanic and the combat engine. We should sell this.
Spreading the word - this might involve a presence in all of the major discords, and a post on BD forums / the subreddit / arelith forum / etc.

Something I could do in this regard is drawing sketches of creatures that are unique to our setting once we come up with them and make bio profiles of them, nothing extremely detailed, but a nice picture of a creature with the climate where it lives, its habits, diet, etc is a good way to hype a setting
