Got nothing noteworthy to say other than the fact that progress goes on slowly, but it's been a while so I guess it'd be nice to drop a few lines.
The new features are not something that will dramatically change the game by themselves but I'm satisfied with them. I played a game with the power imbalance context and got into a feud with the almighty Birdwatchers' Association by refusing to vote for harsh punishments on anybody that removes bird nests from their houses. A smart person would have yielded because at that point a few votes would not have made a difference, but I welcomed the chance to test things out.
The association started promoting a suspiciously high number of alleged birdwatching expeditions around my homebase, gathering information about me and circulating rumours about supposed horrible and weird things I did to those poor little birds. Fortunately, I had previously met a shoe-obsessed aristocrat belonging to the Birdwatchers' Association that owed me big time for giving away the money he needed for a medical treatment, so I met up with him to arrange for him to put up a good word for me within the association and gift them a few nice shoes in my name in order to earn the favours I needed to put an end to the feud.
Meanwhile, Alchrousse insisted on being my very best friend forever and how much we both deserve our own kingdom, so I relunctantly accepted this as a chance to do some more testing and got myself into one of those awkward friendships that only exist because one of the parties doesn't know how to ditch the other one without hurting their feelings.
Felt nice to be on the other side for once though.
I'd just like to say, I really, really love your work here. On the game, yes, but also on the whole concept. While I may not be the best at the meta, it brings me a lot of joy, and I'll be following it indefinitely—as I have been, for the past few years.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your support, it honestly means a lot to know that people care.
DeleteHere's looking forward to see what new things we'll be getting in the following years.
