Pubs/Taverns
« on: October 22, 2012, 10:37:50 am »

I'm sure this has been mentioned before but wouldn't it be good if Dorfs drank booze in a Pub or Tavern
with music, general drunkenness & fighting?
Being from Britain it's where I spend most of my drinking hours anyway!

It's planned to happen in the near future, together with other visitors, like heroes, adventurers, non caravan traders and such like.

Fighting of both the lethal and non-lethal kind has been planned, I hear :)

Dwarves don't get drunk, and there are both instruments and musicality traits already in the game, so I assume those will be used.

Yes, soon we'll be able to have a good punch up in a pub, without it involving a lot of "x has been struck down!"

Unless we feel like having it involve "Human McPeasant has been struck down!" Without which, honestly, I think would be less amusing.

There's a whole development arch focusing on player made inns/taverns.

You may want to read this. It's interesting stuff about the subject.

IIRC there were taverns in some human towns in some previous versions of the game but like goblin fortresses they were removed for revision.
