Jiglu: The Blind Mudders information and discussion center: Discussion: Re: elaborate descriptions yes or no?

I agree that elaborate descriptions add a lot to a game. I would much rather see, say for a newly promoted Starfleet Lieutenant,

"A hansome-looking man in his early thirties stands proudly before you, admiring the extra pip on his collar."

instead of something like

"A proud Starfleet Lieutenant is here" That is more for the ldesc that appears when you walk in the room. Something even more elaborate than my example might even be appropriate. If you are worried about it being a problem, put a toggleable feature there like brief mode for room descs but make it a brief mode for mob and obj descs.
