Something I feel is lacking from this game is a sense of connection with the other players. Something I think that would improve that is an in game chat system whereby players can 1) be automatically placed into a community chat room. 2) create their own chat rooms 3) add friends and 'whisper' them directly
This is a current feature on The-West, another Innogame some people may be familiar with. I have provided an example of what the chat system is like there. Although there are currently no alliances or similar groups in place in Elvenar, I think it would be good to implement such a system where players can form groups or 'clans' where they can chat, whisper other players and even join large community groups where new players could seek immediate help and others can use as a place to hang out
1) In The-West, there are a few chat room called "Saloon #" where at any given time there are usually 30-40 players. Now if you notice there are only 10 people in Saloon 4 above despite there likely being far more than 10 players online, the reason for this is that as there are less players online (notice this screencap was taken at 2am game time) any players that log in will be placed into fewer rooms in order to maintain the 30-40 players in one room. Of course 30-40 is a just a number that can be changed, but it seems to work on The-West and at any given time you can usually find people willing to answer your questions, talk about TV, sports, you name it
2) The room called SuperSecretRoom above is an option available on The-West where you can make your own room by typing "/join room_name_here" and you can then tell others the room name and they can join by typing the same /join command.
3) Another feature offered by The-West chat system is the ability to add friends and chat with them directly.
TL;DR: It's nice to feel like part of a community when playing a game, and a chat system accomplishes that.
