This one of the reasons character generation I won't claim that CF is the most newbie-friendly
discourages newbies from rolling up any class
that requires empowerment. Of course, we also
expect people playing priests to be familiar
enough with the game to have a basic understanding
of Theran mythology/theology, but the suggestion
also exists that players choosing to play
those classes know what they're getting into.
MUD out there, however, I have noticed that the
newbies at the biggest disadvantage are those
who don't read. Through character generation,
basic help files, and the Academy newbies are
well-informed enough to get by without hitting
any insurrmountable obstacles.
