Starter wolf tokens

My suggestion is to add some sort of ”starter wolf token” to the game.

The token would let you create another starter wolf, in addition to your original two.

To avoid flooding the game with starter wolves, there should definitely have to be some limitations to the token:

  • Each player would only be allowed to purchase one (or maybe two) tokens per year. The token would not be tradeable.
  • Only starter breeds and patterns would be available to choose from. (Of course it would be possible to use breed changes etc later like on other wolves)
  • A wolf created with the token would have the same limitations as a normal starter wolf: no option to sell or stud the wolf.

I imagine this token would be sold in the mole market for moonstones. A token like this would be a great motivator to buy moonstones and support the game, and players who don’t have the option to buy moonstones would have a long term goal to save up to.

While spending time on breeding projects, or hunting for nice wild wolves, are fun for a lot of players, some players prefer to play around in the demo and then have the option to create their dream wolf to play dress up with. I think a limited starter wolf token would be a nice compromise that would let players create custom wolves, without making custom wolves take over the game.

Honestly? Support for this or something like this, especially with such a long cooldown! I do think that maybe these wolves should be considered normal wolves, not starter wolves, and allowed to be sold/studded, but I do see how that could be easily abused so maybe not? Either way though I do like this idea a lot, I think it would be nice to have the option to get some more fully custom wolves besides your starters in the future, and if the tokens were very expensive + could only be obtained 1-2 times a year like you said, I don't think it would be too easily abused overall! (I may be wrong haha, but I like the idea in any case.)

Ohhhhhh I really like this idea! Especially because I always felt something lacking on other petsites was the ability to make further customs…I think Felisfire had an option to spawn a new pet with some custom markings if you bought an egg of one in the shop but my memory is rusty and the game from what I've seen is basically dead LOL. I may be biased though, because I'm always one to regret my choices in making my customs haha. But having a strict limit with a long cooldown could make it so that the feature doesn't end up getting abused!

Personally I think there are arguments both for and against the customs being able to be traded. Arguing for, there won't be too much flooding the market if you could only make 2 a year (2 I think is a good limit). Arguing against though, it might also depreciate the value of any coat color/pattern that would be popular in some way because then people would just make popular wolves to sell them for expensive prices. I am confused as to why you can't stud your custom wolves though, so maybe all custom wolves (including progens) could be studded in the future? Just a thought.

I say support. Lorwolf's wolves are super hard to work with when generated randomly since you've forced to work with all four pelt colors. If there was any sort of basic or “this color doesn't show up” gene, I'd say it's something that wouldn't be needed early on in the game. So, I'd say either add this or single-color besprinklers to give some control over the colors of the randomly generated wolves.

Please yes. As much as I love my progen… I was in a rush to get in the game and well, I'm not gonna lie I'm not super happy with them. I'll even take 1 a year. Or just a general item to get us recolor our progen without it being random.

this is actually a pretty cool idea, support! i know that a lot of people made their wolves randomized in favor of lower ID wolves so hopefully thisll help with that atleast a little

@Ganymede I'm neutral on this suggestions, but I'm just gonna say if there's anything related to birthdays it should be account creation birthdays, since some people don't know their birthdays.

I would rather an item that lets you recolour your progens

Neutral on the suggestion itself
