I would very much like a mage guild to go with the wizard that I intend on making. But how will the guild affect your gameplay? Let's say you go up the ranks and eventually get your own alchemy lab/shop that brings in some income, and improves your crafting. Over time, as you do guild missions or generally follow a gameplay style, you get promoted.
At some point, you begin to interact with headquarters more. For those who like things to go on while they're adventuring, this would keep things interesting; when I played Baldur's Gate, I liked coming back to Athkatla after a good week of adventuring, only for something to pop up!
As for inter-guild warfare, how would they implement this? Would you occasionally see conflicting factions fighting in the streets? Or get a newsletter tabulating the going-ons ("Alchemy Lab destroyed near the docks, pushing back guild territory" ? )
