Belief in God in U.S. Dips to 81%, a new Low
Realm of the Mad God offers 18 playable classes, each with their own unique ability. The incorporeality or spirituality of God refers to him being a Spirit. Polytheistic peoples from many cultures have postulated a thunder god, the personification or source of the forces of thunder and lightning; a lightning god does not have a typical depiction, and will vary based on the culture. The groups with the largest declines are also the groups that are currently least likely to believe in God, including liberals (62%), young adults (68%) and Democrats (72%). Belief in God is highest among political conservatives (94%) and Republicans (92%), reflecting that religiosity is a major determinant of political divisions in the U.S. Contemporary estimates put the dead at 100,000. It was Europe’s largest and most widespread popular uprising before the 1789 French Revolution. Experience is converted into fame at a 2000:1 ratio and is stored individually for each character a player has. Upon reaching level 20, experience gained that would be used for leveling up is instead stored and converted into fame. Players unlock other classes by leveling up or reaching level 20 with previously unlocked classes. Players can upgrade their pets to the next rarity by fusing two pets of the same rarity to produce one pet of the next rarity stage.
There are ten tiers of bags in the game (in order of increasing rarity): brown, pink, purple, egg baskets, cyan, blue, golden, orange, red, and white. Pets of higher rarity will have more abilities as well as a higher level cap for their abilities. Depending on the class or item equipped, abilities can deal damage, inflict debuffs on enemies, buff or heal allies, or otherwise perform a defensive function. Some of these rare items may prove more useful to the player depending on their preferences or the type of item. Upon a member’s death, guild fame is earned proportionally to the amount of fame that the player earned. A guild costs the founding player 1000 fame to name and create and has a guild hall that can be accessed by members of the guild through the nexus. Players can only hatch eggs from the Pet Yard, which is accessed through the nexus. To level up pets, players must have an item to feed their pet, as well as sufficient fame. Fame gain is also further increased for all fame gained before hitting the limit of 650, after which it reverts to the 2000:1 ratio. All items in the game have a certain amount of feed power, dubbed “FP”, which denotes how much experience a pet will gain if it is fed the item and can be viewed in the item’s description.
The difficulty of each dungeon is determined by a 1-10 ranking system represented by tombstones, which can be viewed by hovering the mouse on the dungeon in the hud. The difficulty of the dungeon often corresponds with how valued the stat potions that can drop from it are; Speed, a relatively easy stat to max, is easy to obtain, while Life, the hardest stat to max, drops from the harder dungeons in the game. Stat potions can drop from gods in the godlands, from event bosses, and from dungeon bosses. Occasionally, gods or dungeon bosses will drop egg baskets which contain pet eggs. Every tier of bag from purple onwards are “soulbound” and will only been seen by the player for whom it dropped. Brown and pink bags often contain potions of health or mana as well as lower tier gear, and can be seen by everyone when dropped. The rarest items tend to drop in white bags and are frequently referred to in the community as “white bag items” or “whites”. Many of these white bag items can completely change the way a class is played and are highly sought after by players. To help fund the game’s development, optional microtransactions were added to the game, drawing a mixed response from players.
While this sometimes creates controversy within the game’s forums, it provides rapid and constructive feedback to help shape the direction the game takes. The game’s developers still use this method devs are active in releasing blog posts to communicate with the player base about where the game stands. Pets will have three abilities which are randomly chosen from a larger pool of possible abilities which the player can gradually level up to increase their usefulness. Most mid-to-high-level dungeons will provide the player with stat boost potions, some even guaranteeing such potions in certain conditions. Every class in the game each has unique max values for each stat as well as average levels for each stat upon reaching level 20, meaning that it can take up to consuming 40 potions of a particular stat on one class, and around 10 of the same stat on another. At the same time, the state is also introducing institutional measures to ensure that it remains at the center of the religious field, able to control religious mobilization in the future. Although much of the population eventually became Muslim, the region retained its Orthodox heritage, and the patriarchate was restored from 1557 to 1766. The lack of religious tension during much of the Ottoman period may be explained in part by the concessions offered to Muslim converts and in part by the attitude of many peasants, who welcomed diverse forms of religious ritual as means to ward off evil.
