Honestly, I remember waaaaay back asking about how much impact his donators had on things, and remembering being told not much. This game could be so much better. Cut away a few of the characters, emphasize the drama of things, like how much effort is needed to move into the new city, and concentrate more on his wife and Lisa and a few others. To the point where you can leave your wife for one of them, including Lisa, maybe. That would make it a lot better. But the author doesn't really listen.
