I agree that an Inn or Tavern providing passive replenishment of fatigue / hunger / thirst provides a very eloquent and simple way to provide in-game mechanical reason for players to congregate in traditionally a very RP-centric locale. It very naturally fulfills that familiar scene of a populated and busy tavern, but instead of nameless copy-paste NPCs, its filled with players.

Most MMO's have some version of "bank watching" when you're logged in but just talking on VOIP, reading something out of game, or organizing yourself, and players need a place to idle.

I could easily see players of all kinds traveling into a new city and immediately seeking out the nearest tavern to sit down and idle at while their stats replenish and they afk to grab a beer or a snack.

OhOh are you talking of that place around the corner with the red lantern hanging over the door ? sure it's comfortable but not sure you recover from your fatigue... you sure get relieved.

As for will there be nudity in game, last I heard, no, there will not be. Which I disagree with, but get. I like all the realism I can get, but it would seriously limit the player base, so damage profits.

Or you can just add a tavern as the first floor of your lab/home. Then every visitor of the tavern can taste your latest invention / poison ; )

I guess I know where to place my "help wanted" posters now.
