And a quick note. Eloanora is a temporary donna due to her father and mother still being alive just not able to control the family due to injury.
She was, like Jalen, not part of the family business for most of her life and only came back recently. (Bit like godfathers story heh. Don't sue me.)
She is only a few years older than Luna. She very young and looked down upon by not only the mafia world but even to her own Family as they do not really know her. But that is another story.
Following would "most likely" (was actually temped to say "will be" but gotta leave myself a little bit of loophole so I don't shoot myself on the foot with such definitive claims :ROFLMAO: ) be my last batch of questions until the v0.08 update arrives:


1) It's been said by Gracie (in Town Time event) that Cordia has a good working partnership Lucania's police Chief. But even if the Chief cooperates with the Family, are there individuals in the force (within precinct) who resent the whole "cooperation with a crime Family"?


2) Also, you've previous teased lots of police involvement in the future (with background characters detectives created by Patrons). Any chance a visit to the Lucania police precinct in the cards for the future?


3) Will we ever see an interrogation occur within the Family mansion grounds? It's been said that Cordia disapproves of barbarism, so something like what Kaskar Family does (e.g. that Pops scene with "mole" before Jalen showed up) will most likely NOT be happening, but it makes me wonder whether any interrogation or torture tactics will still happen when needed.

Besides, we've yet to see that "Female interrogator who needs beauty sleep" from Eiza's "Can I have this?" event!


4) You said that season 2 will likely kick off with Big 5 Family meetings with the Dons/Donnas and their children. So I'm guessing that it will be likely that we're gonna see all their Consiglieres too?

Speaking of Consiglieres, do any Families have female Consigliere? I mean, considering Cordia shook up the system with the Big War, I'd assume that positions of power like Consigliere would have become more open to talented ladies as well (compared to the times of traditional system).


5) So TJ the gunsmith, in the Musala Hills event, is said to do illegal modifications for Luna's guns. Would we ever find out what sort of modifications he makes that makes them illegal (compared to.. legal modifications)?
I mean yes, there are legal and illegal firearm modifications in real life, but I'm pretty much a layman when it comes to firearms so....

But knowing Luna, would it be farfetched to believe she loves huge boost in firepower with her guns (that perhaps that's the kind of modification she asks TJ. The outrageous firepower)? Or could it be something else?


6) Regarding the "balance of power" (in terms of each Family's overall strength, influence, financial power) of each of Current Big Five, how would you balance them if each of them were given pieces out of a whole pie (100%)?

Would it be split something like the following (just taking a blind stab at it, taking into account what is shown in the game and what you revealed with Lore):

The DeLuca Fa Family : 30%
The Profaci Family : 25%
The La Fata Family : 20%
The Tradimano Family :15%
The Melfi Family : 10%

Or would balance of power be even more skewed towards in favor of DeLucas, considering Cordia went to war with all Families at the time of Luna's kidnapping by the Mysterious Six?


7) Just wanted this verified from you; is Sister Amata the other student of Cynthia (other than Luna)?
Some lines in v0.07 seems to sort of imply that to be the case (Amita saying "Amata looks up to Cynthia a bit too much", and Amita herself referring to Cynthia as "Big sis"), though if that's not the case, Amata just has heavy admiration for Cynthia like Caterina does for Cordia. Hmmm......


8) This probably won't be plausible right now, but probably more towards end-game, would we be able to take a peek at "Wilfred's Evaluation" sheets of everyone's potential in the Family?
Just my thought, but on top of the lorebook, it might be fun to have one of those "Wilfred's Confidential files" where evaluation has Wilfred's Grade on each individual in the Family (for e.g. Amata: Grade = mid-Capo, also listing strength and weaknesses and Wilfred's thoughts and opinions on Sister Amata)


9) Not much has been said about Isabel's season 2 arc yet. Wouldn't want you to spoil us, but even so, any juicy teases you can give us for those who love the "Teasing Queen"?


10) Regarding girls' Freeroam mechanic in game, would you be able to share some insight as to whether there will be any possible expansion of this?
Currently there are 6 explorable locations in the DeLuca mansion, and I'm curious as to how many more rooms will be further explorable when Cordia's route gets unlocked, and whether any further no-go rooms in the mansion grounds from before (which we didn't know of) may be available/unlocked as our MC rises higher in ranks.

I mean yes. I've seen some devs go overboard with freeroam mechanic and decided to put too many locations which when playing, freeroaming began to feel like a chore, but in my eyes modicum of increase in freeroam areas for big monumental event doesn't sound like a bad idea (and I like exploring!).

Also, for the game, will there be only Freeroam for DeLuca mansion grounds, or would you be open to implementing it in possible other areas?

11) Regarding music in games, I've seen some devs create specific soundtrack theme for each of their characters.

So for example, what would you think of a Luna-tailored theme track for some scenes of Luna events, Cordia-tailored theme track for some parts of Cordia events and so on and so on?
Not saying this is what I want, but I've seen some devs try interesting takes experimenting with such character tailored themes, and curious to hear your thoughts on it.


12) Another question about music; what approach regarding music for the game do you think works (and what doesn't work) specifically for you?

Any issues or difficulties with the whole music process (asking for another look under the hood regarding this part of the creative process, heh) that you had to deal with?


Whew!
That's the lot!

Sorry I thought I will ask , hope to get complete game one day
Nothing to be sorry about.

It's just that if you're waiting for the game to be completed, then you're gonna be waiting quite a while.
Hopes (the dev) said before v0.07 released that the game is roughly around 30% done.

He also stated that the game is planned to have roughly 3 seasons or so (and currently there's still 2 updates to go until season 1 is concluded, even though the season 1 finale update is likely to be a short one).

You were surprised by that? :ROFLMAO:

As Carta said, 12 is a one of the smaller batch numbers of Qs because I'm running out of material to ask questions on (I used to ask a lot more. Several regular members of this thread will actually verify that. Of course, if you have your doubts, you can search my post history. But be warned, going through them and seeing the questions might make your head spin lmao).

If you think that was big, wait till Hopes starts becoming more consistent with his releases and the updates become more frequent.

When that happens, well....

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

:LOL:

But in all seriousness, Hopes is one of those devs who is pretty cool with me asking Qs.
He knows of my huge curiosity/inquisitiveness (which might deter some devs), yet has been kind enough to ask all my questions.

It's not something I'd do with other devs on this site (some of them I might ask few questions sure, though nowhere near as much to Hopes regarding this game).

Im glad you laugh about it and didnt take it wrong, some people would of taken offense to it and i didnt want that to happen. Nothing wrong with asking them, its good to see people get into the games. I always have convos about it and always respect people when you can have a convo and it doesnt turn toxic.

Well, the "I could tell you, but then I would need to kill you." and "I can't confirm or deny it." are always easy to use.

Also I can assure you that JJJ84 is currently out of form as he only written 12 - ONLY 12!!! - questions. If that goes on, I fear he will run out of question. Here my friend I give you some help. ???????????????????? Should be enough for 20 questions, if I counted it right.:ROFLMAO::p

And you know, the cost for my curiosity and inquisitiveness is that there are those who conspire to either put a hit out on me, restraining order on me, or torture me (make up your mind, damn it!) for asking too many.

Primary suspect of the leader of this movement I'd assume is WhiteyG but I wonder whether he has any co-conspirators? :ROFLMAO:

Who knows, they might stab me in the back when I least suspect it, with me responding:

"Et tu, [member name]?"

(The pain...... the pain! :ROFLMAO: )

lmao
