Thanks for the save; I'll check it out tomorrow morning! (I had friends over for a long party, and any coding I do now is less suspect, and more guilty by definition).

It depends a little on my ability to work on it. At the moment, it's about 4 weeks / act (Elsewhere sucked up a lot of time, so Act 1-2 took a while). Book one (The Crown) is 5 acts. Book 2 (The War) and Book 3 (The Return) likely the same. So another year+ to finish it sounds about reasonable. After that I'd look at game+, I love references, hidden endings, that kind of thing.Fair enough and it may well work with your design setup while the game is in development, now I know it is likely well over a year or years away, but such a feature could also work for a new game+ if want to do something like that.
Would it be unrealistic if Chloe/Sorcerers had a second ability that influence the chance of what kind of loot you get from the monster you're currently fighting?
I bet "Lord... Torman..." would know who is %100 just a regular old Evoker and nothing else. (No I'm not checking wiki for Welsh/Gaelic thunder gods, what gave you that impression)

Interesting idea. I could in theory use a second loot table for situations where there's a sorceress involved. I'll add that to the task list.
I haven't played as many of these as I would like to due to just not having the time, but I have to give huge praise to Droid Productions for this one. It is leaps and bounds my favorite game out of the 2-3 ish dozen games. I cannot wait for new updates

You can also search for the Germanic ones, they mostly overlap with the Norse Pantheon, but not completely.

Hopefully by the time Book XM drops you'll have it all figured out.

Who is Quinn Kuko? Those name changes are impossible to follow, you Madhatter.
Well for now I am first and foremost interested in following the story of this game and all those interested in MC.

Yeah... I messed up with Emily during the card reading session so I'm taking a break to think it overWho is Quinn Kuko? Those name changes are impossible to follow, you Madhatter.
Sadly, 3 books is all there is. After that I need to find another story to tell. I don't want to make an eternity game.

You should.... there are prequels, sequels, spin-off....
Ah, I see you have studied with the dark side. Nah, after this I'll go make a game about making porn movies, or something like that

I second the 'That's a shame' opine. Maybe have a two stage plan;
1) Have a Start, a Middle and an End. The Start (maybe three Acts to set the stage) and End (could be a single act) could be fixed, but the Middle would be more flexible.
2) In the Middle, tell stories until you have no more stories to tell, then tie up loose ends, tack on the End and go on to your next project.
It would make me sad to think this game will end just because you decided it would at the start, because there are so few really good games about (maybe 10 - 15), and this is telling a really interesting story. I think there could be quite a lot of interpersonal relationship expansion without interfering with the Main Story plot, and that should be considered.
Just one person's thoughts.

It's not like you have to make " The married life of [MC] and Emily".... but if you did I wouldn't complainAh, I see you have studied with the dark side. Nah, after this I'll go make a game about making porn movies, or something like that
Well, we're talking ~15 acts out. There's lots of interesting stories to tell out there, and interesting characters to find. Book 1 is essentially the beginning; the rise to power. Book 2 is the center, the prophecy and the war. Book 3 is the return, the wrapping up of stories and (as a lifelong JRR Tolkien fanboi) the return to the Shire, but a world that's changed by your actions, or lack of actions.

Yeah, but considering we're at Act III already, if the Act's lengths are similar, my maths says we're 1/5th in already. THAT'S NOT ENOUGH!

The problem is it will never be enough if good enoughYeah, but considering we're at Act III already, if the Act's lengths are similar, my maths says we're 1/5th in already. THAT'S NOT ENOUGH!
Then again Droid said he is considering a game+ after end and ofc that is something you can come back to every once in a while to add to should he feel that way Besides what is to say the game he thinks up after would not even be better? Edit: Also he said 15 acts out, that should mean in 18 total so only at 1/6 now. Also as long as he can make the story better it is never wrong to add to it and make it better, just adding content for the content though would diminish the quality of the game overall.
Could I ask when the next update will be for this game as so want to know more how it will play out?
