WHAT YOU WANT TO SUGGEST OR MENTION:

Have you ever thought about charging your phone? Introducing a phone charger and battery system! It will make the game super realistic and add a challenge to your roleplay. Everyone now would have to remember to charge their phones just like in real life. If you forget, your phone battery would run out, and you won't be able to call someone if your character have an emergency. To charge your phone, you look for a charger, and plug your phone by right clicking the charger and it will be fully charged for few hours (just like waterguns.)



HOW WILL THIS BENEFIT THE SERVER/COMMUNITY?:

It would make the roleplay more realistic and teach us to be responsible with our phones. What do you think?

Phone signal is already a thing and adding battery would probably be even more of an inconvenience, not really much of a need to add.

Inconvenience.

Realism is nice, but when you add too much of it, gets tedious.

Nylu makes a wonderful point. Yes we want a good amount of realism in the server but adding too much would make things just annoying and tedious

Also it would be a proceeds to add this into the game. I mean think about it, you would have to charge it which would require a charger and an outlet to be added + plug in that allows you to use the charger. It’s just inconvenient and wouldn’t be enjoyable for players to have to deal with

Greenies who don't have a house yet: "guess I'll die then!" Joking aside, no, enjoyability over realism, like Nylu said.

The amount of things that would need to go behind this would take a while. Repeating what Nylu said, the amount of realism being brought forth could eventually annoy players. The modeling would also take time and possibly end as useless to everyone. As Enderbubs said, chargers and plugs would be a nuisance, as well as reroute the point of the game. (Love the idea though!)

-1 down with realism (to a degree) I don't think we should implement something to make things "more realistic" when we know it'd be annoying and detrimental to QoL. It's an interesting idea.. but it's better suited for survival games than it is a roleplay.

I think the best degree of realism for SRP is ... sort of like more grounded and rational slice of life anime logic. (Yes I know you can Devil's advocate this and do a bunch of examples of where this statement would be wrong.)

Personally, I would just carry an inventory full of phones so that I could have basically unlimited charge and almost never have to worry about charging my phone (except for the hour long charging session I would have to go through every week or so)

Annoying. Only good side to this is I can get out of an ICly call that I don't wanna be in by simply saying "Oh, my phones about to run out of batteries, got-to-go-lol-bye"

If you want this, just say "Oh sorry, my phone is dead" or, for lore purposes "Sorry, my phone is almost dead and I need to walk to (insert location) alone. People are after me too so it's for my safety" (make sure ur oc knows someone is after them if it is true). Y'know? Add lore to it, ITEMRP THE CHARGERS.

-1 WAYY too much of an inconvenience to players who dont have access to a charging port. Even so, that'll be so much work just to implement this one, tiny, tedious detail to life.
