2022-01-13 FYI

I've been away for a loong time, but Hazeron still has a place in my heart, so I'd like to throw out some of my cents:

Firstly, I hope there will be more payment options than just PayPal, as I would rather go without online play than send money through that company! :(

I wasn't around for the Patreon days, but I like the idea of giving money via Patreon to support a game, better than the idea of paying a monthly subscription to play. For example, I haven't played Dwarf Fortress in perhaps a decade, but I'm still happy to send some cash to those lunatics every month through Patreon!
I understand that it's extremely difficult for such a niche game to be self-sustaining only via Patreon though, and I'm not sure how well having additional payments would gel with the "donation" concept of Patreon. :-/

I second this idea. I've long thought that Hazeron could be well suited to a tiered pricing model, whereby free/guest players could play the game as citizens and crew to get a taste, but not hold any governorship or captaincy.


And since we're on the subject, it might also be possible that similarly limited/guest roles could be used instead of berth-a-porting? That is, rather than the player's avatar getting teleported to a faraway ship, inventory and all, the player instead would "possess" and take control of an AI crewmember already on the ship. They would only have access to things that crew member would have access to, and the player's regular avatar would be "offline" back wherever they were, waiting for the return of the player consciousness.
It's likely not a full solution to all the problems berth-a-porting is intended to address, but something to think about?

Glad to see Haxus is back and Hazeron still has a future! :)
