Thanks so much for your kind comment. It's always so rewarding when people let us know that they're enjoying the game and the story, and this was a really nice comment to read!The story of this novel is absolutely incredible, one of the best I have read on here, and I have gone through over a hundred of them in the last couple of years.
The animation is still choppy in some areas, but others are complete with motion capture, as smooth as ones found in Treasure Of Nadia/ Genesis Order.
You DID miss a GOLDEN opportunity with Naya though, when she is having a certain fight in America, since she rarely gets fatigued apparently, you could have had her say something like "Oh come ON, at LEAST make it a challenge!" right after she decapitates or dismembers an opponent.
I just finished the first part and am currently working on the second, right before they are going to a realm after the ward or door is fixed to proceed safely, and have this open on my desktop to enjoy it every moment I can when I am not being dragged away by my Real Life.
Is there more clarification on the exact age and history of Atlas and Lucius?
It would be interesting to see where the Great King came from, how he came across Atlas, what possessed him to CHOOSE Atlas over other warriors throughout time, also much more history with his bondmate Ellie, and HER unique parents as I feel that's a heavily missed opportunity complete with an empty part of the story that I am expecting to see in each following section I am finishing, like a deleted scene within a movie that would give far more exposition and clarity to many previous ones.
I could say keep up the good work, but that's a little unnecessary and redundant don't you think?
Instead, I will say this journey is as incredible as the mind(s) that it spawned into the creation that I am enjoying greatly.
For the quality, we are continually striving to improve it. Hopefully, now that you're starting Realm 2, you'll notice the increase in our animation quality as we're now working with an animator. The aim is for this to keep improving.
For the characters, you can learn a little more about some of them on our

. various characters have character sheets that we will likely look to redo in the future, but it still contains some info, such as their ages and a brief summary of them. We are also looking to implement a character bio screen at some point to enable players to access this info directly within the game. Adding that might still be a little while off, but we have begun working on it in the background.As for why Lucius chose Atlas, we actually expanded on this slightly in a short story on our website,

. Various elements of the characters' backstories will be expanded upon as the game progresses. We realise that various things feel left unanswered after Realm 1 or that there was more that could have been explored. Some things will purposefully be left open-ended, but other things will be explained as the game progresses - we still have a very long way to go. Hopefully, once we reach the end of the game, we will have struck a good balance between the two, as we want it to feel like a complete experience by the end of the game.Thanks again for your kind words - have a good one!
