Your suggestions have been given by several players in the past. I understand your viewpoint.Love this game. Thanks noobtrain for everything you had done and love your work. And thank you skybarbie for keeping it going.
That said.
Request:
Because this game is advertised as a completely free, sandbox, choose your own choice game, I would love it if a truly free sandbox version/option was available. The family storyline is good but I would like the option to start the game with family already available and to avoid ALL story. A true sandbox experience. Also you might get this criticism a lot but the whole family arch comes way too late in the game. By the time I started that story, I was already emperor of the world, and felt like "why are these plebs even a problem?"
Also the story forces/horse shoes you into being a criminal even if you weren't or didn't want to. Which is contrary to a sandbox game. I had a certain game playthrough where I chose to become a boxing champion and used that money to buy legit property, stores, factories, etc. Unfortunately, I had to eventually corrupt the police and deal with drug lords to progress the story.
Thank you.
The game is a sandbox game but not a 100% sandbox only game. There are 5 random events and the family trouble story. jessicajones did most (maybe all) of the 5 random events and noobtrain did the family story. I've added two small scenes/events so far (to complement the family story) and a bunch of enhancements with one major new feature in versions 0.60 and 0.61 (as well as a ton of bug fixes).
The family story does come late in the game you are right. noobtrain said that he put it there as a reward for those who have succeeded in the game. I understand that you have to be evil to get some of the later random events and the family story. Out of professional curtesy, I won't change another author's work unless it's for bug fixes.
There is a cheat code that you can use to start the family story so technically you don't "have" to be evil if you are willing to use cheats.
Thank you for your support and feedback!
