hit lists and faction missions

[xhuggels]

Would anyone else like to see hit lists in the game. It would work something along the line of the bounties, but as bounties are set forth by the police, hit lists would be set by different factions. Factions who are enemies would have bounties and rep for killing officials (Samurai Lord, Police chief, Mercenary captain, Police Sergeant, Traders and the works) and other lists for killing say 5 of another factions guards or such.
It would also be cool to have black market item traders that would buy stolen weapons from you. The price would fluctuate depending on who the weapon belonged to.
I know a mafia of sorts has been suggested, and the hit lists would work well with alongside such a faction.

Another idea would be faction missions. Hit lists could fit in with them too, but i would suggest that factions such as dust bandits, hungry bandits, cannibals and sand ninja also have faction missions. For instance if you bring the cannibals people to eat it would help with faction relations.
You would be able to make allies and enemies at the same time by choosing a side(or more than one side) to ally with.

I would love hit lists!!!!!

Though, there is an assassin skill that will be implemented, a climbing skill(walls are going to be harder to defend in the future), and then in the faction screen, some factions will have squads.

So i think assassination missions will be a thing.

Keep in mind, that there are MULTIPLE factions of ninja's planned. So when the game is finished, it will be like a cross between Naruto and berserk...

Hit lists like in missions assigned by a faction sound good. I know that faction missions are scheduled for the future. I'm guessing that some of those are going to be assassination style.

But in keeping with the idea that the Npcs can do anything that we can, I'm hoping that rival factions can put out bounties and "hits" on us. and that the sand ninja's are hirable by ours and other factions to carry out said attacks.

It would also be cool that if we did the deed while disguised as another faction, that other faction would get the blame instead of us.

As for cannibals, I don't think that you can befriend them very easily. I see them as a ultra cult. You bring them a captive for dinner they see two courses.
Unless you are willing to sit down and have a meal with them they would have nothing to do with you. Even though there are conversations that hint at them being willing to talk I'm thinking they would eat you afterward.
I wonder if there are ways to bait them into attacking towns or trade routes without becoming part of the dinner yourself. But befriend them? No don't think so.

Is it gonna be weird when i say that in the 90 odd hours ive spent with this game ive not once had the urge to even see what cannibals look like. ive just never gone anywhere near the place...have no desire...nope...

only time that I have been able to talk to them is after I catch them and put them in a cage.
And they still want to eat me. But I don't think they mean that in a sexual way.

"if you don't eat me, you don't have to spend the night alone"....
