This comment is probably very premature, since unlike the above poster, I've only just now played the first couple of hours to try to get the jist of the game (and holy crap is the scale impressive!). So my knowledge of game events and character development is almost none. But I do like the idea of an "overthrow the Twins" scenario as a possible path. Not necessarily killing them, but turning the tables on them somehow, and having them maybe become Rowan's servants (willing or otherwise) as *he* takes the throne. I like the mental image of Rowan now sitting on the throne of the Dark Lord he overthrew, while Jezera either sits at his feet, or maybe even rules beside him.fostaa - That was a thought out post. You're right, of course, to point out that there are issues present in the game. The dev team are aware of many of them and have plans to deal with them already -- some have been long-pending. The buildings, equipment, store, and stats for the PCs (primarily for Rowan) are underway to have a massive overhaul. Many encounters will also be reworked to reflect them including partial successes and failures. Some things are on the back burner (and that's why you're seeing placeholder text in some areas) while the team takes care of other priorities. I liked some of your ideas like overthrowing The Twins, or the appearance of physical manifestations of the PCs of how Bloodmeen or Chaos or whatever may be having an influence and is changing them over time. These though will likely be in future installments of SoC and not in this one. In regards to Alexia's encounters, some story lines can only be initiated or progressed further based on her own stats (i.e., her corruption level) or how Rowan's choices affected things for her while he's away exploring or otherwise occupied. While I didn't go over every point you've raised, I hope this post at least squashed several of your concerns. Glad you're enjoying the game though! Cheers and be safe. ;]
Edit: Fixed a typo.
But as I said, for all I know that may not even fit at all with the game, because I haven't dived deep into it yet. Based on what I've seen so far, it seems that the game definitely merits multiple playthroughs. For my first run I'm going to be power-hungry, turn NTR off, and try to have as much sex as possible XD. In another playthrough I might RP being loyal to Alexia. And in another I might flag NTR on and make Rowan a submissive little bitch lol.
Hopefully the drider content is avoidable to some extent though, as I am highly arachnophobic XD.
Anyway, even as someone who has currently only just sampled the game, I was very impressed, and wanted to pass along my compliments as well.
