The line was "you must be joking, very well then, I could say this was a pleasure, king Norwyn". I had 11 points and the marriage deal cost 10.
edit: I met Ursa before reaching 4 weeks after the deal, does it affect the progression of the elf queen?

Oh, I messed up. Sorry. I lowered it on the text but not the code. You need 12. You could just write a command for it. wildVar = 12.
No, Ursa doesn't affect it.

Would the one like the video suffice? Or should I go for a different style for the guides?
You could just add quests tab and inbuild walkthrough type of thing.
There's a video? Personal preference for me is a old fashioned gamefaqs style guide (ASCII art optional), where you list out the various events at the top and I ctrl+f to find what I'm looking for. But if you're doubtful, this might be the kind of thing to make a poll for.

Anything but video would be my preference. Have no patience for sitting through videos when I could just skim through a written document. But of course you're under no obligation to cater to our preferences.
I took this out for another turn, got to the bit where the Elves show up (new to me), picked some of the more confrontational options during the conversation and ran into some buggery.

Hahaha they wouldn't be long videos. The one to get the elven queen is less than one minute. I probably should give the written guide a try. I just wouldn't know how to go about it or where to publish it.
I think I just went crazy hahaha. I made the button for that character but forgot to put it in the files apparently. At least almost no one decided to be a contrarian haha.

Yeah, I think variable side content can be less frustrating in a linear game where the player can just ctrl-skip through to get the events again and try different options. In a slightly more fiddly management-ish game like this, playing through the game again just to try a new approach to an event can feel more like a chore. Just my opinion of course.

That surprises me. They're a bunch of arseholes encroaching on your territory, anything else seemed counterintuitive.

I don't think I really want to compromise with the side events. Not only because it would become a headache to try and balance a timeline that doesn't extend for gods know how many in-game years, but also because the player might end up having to skip through a lot to get a character they want.
What I could do however is basically put some training wheels on the baron mode, and pretty much make it impossible to lose and even faster to gain skills. That way it might become more ctrl-skip.

They are, but right now that's the only path to get the elven queen haha. One day when I implement the conquest mechanic you'll probably be able to go and kick them a bit before striking a marriage alliance as a peace treaty.

Just to be clear, I wasn't suggesting you change anything in the game play. This is not a linear vn-style game, and I don't think there's much to be gained from trying to force it into that mould. I was just trying to suggest why having side content that's fairly easy to miss/screw up can be frustrating to the player in a game of this type.

I don't really see it as messing with the gameplay. I think at this stage is important to have an option for those that only want to see the new content, rather than play. That is mostly what the easy mode was intended for. I would only be making it easier.
