Common Sense Corner

[Ahzoh]

But wouldn't it mean that at some point before or right at the item purchase the player should have learned about that myth so they can connect the dots and thus start recalling your new weapon or item is a gun or a potion or anything else related to that specific myth? If so that would force you to spend a lot of time adding such content to your game that at the end would be even more non sensical than just naming them after things and myths people can find anywhere on books or all over the internet. I mean it, people would just get totally lost and hitting their heads against the wall or the table trying to figure out what the hell that item was supposed to be or to represent in such world. OK, most people would just be lazy enough that they would just skip all the mythos and would go straight forward to kill the monsters and the bossy badasses.

And I don't want those lazy players who can't appreciate good creative mythology...
If I want to incorporate the elements of my constructed world's culture, mythos and all, I should do it in a fashion... understandable and approachable.
