An idea sparked by the whole language thing... what if, at the begining of the game, you had to choose between cultures and the races available within them.. and thus the language you start with, the resources available...such a thing could later lead to alliances, or even building your own kingdom if you can't stand any of the cultures... put all of that skill to work, -and- kill a monster or ten once in awhile while you're trying to get up that Great Wall of Furna.
Clan associations could -mean- something... alliances would actually be something important to know.. learning a language would take more than five seconds of desc-writing... You'd have a culture to go with or rebel against, a style of clothing you start with, a tone all your own in a world where something exotic actually exists beyond your home; not just a variant of the same. Just an idea.
