    Hmm.. So if Ostrich was a Villager, what does that mean for the vote manipulations last round? I could see the Spiked attempting to mess with the vote, but if there was only one of them then it doesn't make sense that they would attempt it (unless their Rioter was away early in the Cycle). My Rioter-friend has claimed he was away for most of the Cycle, and decided to change Hreo's vote to Mailliw early on. This could explain the lack of organisation. I am attempting to get a reason from him, but may just throw things out into the thread if needs be. The other unexplained one is the Soothing on me. I still don't get it unless someone was trying to either set me up as Mistborn or prove their powers. Wilson and others in the know, can you confirm that it was not Eoladdin showing you that he had Brass for that Cycle? And for that matter, did he ever draw Bronze? Edit: I would be quite interested in the player who Soothed me PMing to discuss some things, since they can't answer here without giving themselves away.

    I'm thinking it might be time for our Coinshot(s) to start taking out inactives. At the very least, Dom, Jasnah and Macen haven't posted since the start of the game, so no great loss if they die and turn out to be Villagers. It's just important that we don't waste lynches on them.

    If I'm a Mistborn, Then it's news to me There are only two reasons I can think of as to why my vote was Soothed: Someone was proving their ability, or they're trying to make me look like a Mistborn. The latter only makes sense if they want to pin me as Spiked when we try this again, which. certainly suggests that Ostrich is an Eliminator. It's not like Mailliw was in danger or anything. That is a lot of manipulation there though. Thing is, I don't see why you didn't die there, Hreo. If they were a Spiked Rioter and a Mistborn, why didn't the votes double up so as to kill you, instead of just making the vote a tie? Very, very odd. Also of import to note - since no-one else appears Soothed, then our Rioters must have not voted. So we must look around the no votes for this. This has raised my suspicions of someone, and I will be asking questions. This, incidentally, is the best reason as to why it can't have been me who Rioted - If I were a Spiked Mistborn, I would not have voted and Rioted, as that just gives my abilities away. Edit: Also, looking back over the previous whole Cycle... Why did I vote for Mailliw (though I was hoping to remove that vote after he posted anyway)? He posted his reasoning the Night before. Hrm. Glad nothing came of that after all of it.

    As I said, it was a simple mistake (one of many i have made this game, sadly). I messaged Ashiok at the start of the game, on the first Night, and we had a brief chat about contacting people. The discussion then died when I went to bed.Then, when Renegade mentioned it, I denied being in contact with Ashiok. Wilson had already mentioned her suspicions of Ashiok to me at that time, and I was basically thinking 'I'd remember if I was talking to Ashiok'. Since it had dried up so early, and nothing notable was mentioned in it, it was completely out of my mind. In fact, when Wilson was talking about Ashiok, I decided to get in contact with him, creating a new PM as well. When Wilson mentioned it again today, I started to doubt my memory, and discovered the old conversation in my list, buried under loads of discussions from games and not from games. Doesn't help that I named it the same as I did Kas' conversation, so it didn't stand out at a glance. So... Twelve hours left in the Cycle. Where is everyone? And, Hreo, what reasons do you have that you don't want to share? Withholding such reasoning just makes me suspicious of it. Edit: That's a point - Ashiok, why didn't you point out that we already had a PM when I started the new one with you?
  5. Wyrmhero
    I am disappointed with the lack of discussion going on. I don't have the time to check over Wilosn's megapost at the moment, but I will clear something up - Ashiok is actually right that I had contacted him. After you mentioned it here, I went back to my really old PMs, and it seems I contacted him briefly on the first night. The conversation died on the 2nd with nothing notable being said, and I then completely forgot about it - to the point where I even started a new PM when I asked if I should contact him. I apologise for the confusion there.

    The keywords in Fate Reforged that you need to keep an eye on are:Bolster X - Just put X +1/+1 counters on your creature with the weakest Toughness when it happens. No targeting required. Raid - Pay an alternative cost, play the creature with Haste. If it survives the turn, it returns to your hand. Manifest - Oh boy. You place the top card of your deck (usually) facedown as a 2/2 creature. You may look at it. If it's a creature, you may pay its mana cost to turn it face up at any time. If it has Morph, you may pay that cost instead. Returning from Khans of Tarkir: Outlast - Whenever you could play a sorcery, you can tap it and pay mana to put a +1/+1 counter on it. Delve - As you pay for a spell, you may Exile (remove from the game for old-timers ) any number of cards to reduce the cost of that spell by one colourless Mana each. Returns in FRF. Ferocious - When the spell/effect resolves, if you have a creature with at least four power, an extra effect triggers. Returns in FRF. Prowess - Whenever you cast a non-creature spell (so Sorcery, Instant, Enchantment, Artifact or Planeswalker), it gets +1/+1 until end of turn. Returns in FRF. Raid - If you attacked with a creature this turn already, an extra effect occurs (so usually casting spells in the second main phase). Morph - You may cast a creature with Morph for three colourless mana. If you do, it is played facedown, and can be turned up for its Morph cost without using the stack. All facedown creatures are colourless 2/2 creatures with no name or abilities. Returns in FRF. Aside from that, a few rules changes and new keywords: Damage no longer uses the stack. Mana burn does not exist. The Legendary Rule is now per player rather than for everyone. Deathtouch means that any damage the creature deals is lethal. When two creatures Fight, they deal damage to each other equal to their Power. Lifelink means that as the creature/spell deals damage, it's controller gains that much life instantly. Planeswalkers are a new card type, and have way too many rules for me to summarise well. I'd suggest looking them up elsewhere. One in eight booster packs will have a Mythic Rare in it rather than a Rare. An MR is usually unique and powerful, if not the most useful of cards all the time. If you do decide to go along, I hope you have a great time seeing how the game has changed . People don't quit Magic, they just take long breaks.

    Looking at who died, I would guess that either Rent told someone what his Role was, or that the Spiked managed to Seek him with a Seeker or a Mistborn. Probably the latter, since we're being careful with our Roles this game (or at least, as far as I know we are). I think that they must have a Mistborn (as well as or instead of a Seeker), since I would be very doubtful that one of us would take out Rent otherwise. I'm not considering that they have a Coinshot, since there'd be no reason for them not to use it every Night if they did indeed have one. Araris' death though... I'd doubt he'd tell his Role to someone he hadn't checked before. As such, I think the only place it can come from is because he admitted that he was in contact with a Soother. The Spiked probably took a gamble (as much as it was one) that he only knew someone else's Role because he was a Seeker. Unfortunately for us, it paid off for them rather well. Hopefully Araris wasn't our only Seeker, but for now we should assume that he was. Hopefully there are at least two of us who are in contact who trust each other from the Night 0 and Night 1 Seeking. Vote-wise though... I'm not sure who to look at at the moment, to be perfectly honest. I'm still looking closely at the people who voted for me, and at Eol (since a vote for him was Soothed away), and so while Wilson explained Mailliw's reasoning for voting for me, I'd quite like to hear it from him as well.
  8. Wyrmhero
    Gee guys, thanks for lynching me after I can't defend myself. Really makes me feel loved. If I didn't have an extra life, I would feel pretty annoyed about dying this way. Mailliw and Ashiok, I would love to hear why you thought that lynching me when I couldn't defend myself was a good idea. Particularly you, Mailliw, when you voted half an hour before the end. And if I die tonight from an Eliminator kill, well. I suppose it's better than you tunneling onto me the next day, but I hope it makes you all rethink things hard. I will laugh if I'm the only one who's looking at things right.
  9. Wyrmhero
    I'm not sure what to do with my vote at the moment, to be perfectly honest. I can leave it on Jain, but I wouldn't be able to respond to him if he said anything later on, and I don't want to vote enough to get him lynched. I could remove it completely, but then I'm not sure I really want to do that. Do I distrust anyone enough to vote for them at this point? Well, quite possibly. I am going to vote for Eolhandras, bringing him up to two (Wilson may have convinced Weiry, but I am not so convinced, myself). If he is lynched and guilty, then I am happy to have brought it to that conclusion. If he is lynched and innocent, then at least this issue will have been settled once and for all, and we can stop being distracted by it. If he is not lynched, then let that settle for now so we can focus on other things. As to Wilson's question, which everyone has ignored - I think it would be good to get it out in the open if you think it is suspicious enough to flag up to us. At the very least, it's more information for us to look at when voting (or for you all to look at when voting this Cycle, at least).
  10. Wyrmhero
    I'm going to remove my vote from Peng, since it doesn't look like he's turning up, and place it on Jain. Why did you just add an additional vote for someone who is - for the most part - inactive, instead of placing it elsewhere? I wouldn't be suspicious of it if it was the first vote on him, but when it's a lynch-threatening vote on an inactive, it starts to look a little strange to me.
  11. Wyrmhero
    I'm not really sure how I can respond to this, really. Thank you for saying that I'm an intelligent Eliminator, but as far as I know, you were the only one who thought about me quite like that in MR3 - Renegade apparently had me down pretty quickly in the dead doc. It was more-or-less circumstantial that I survived the whole game I'd say, and I'm not proud of the fact that we also targeted a few new players to do that >>. I'd also say that I wouldn't kill Kas if I was an Eliminator, but try to manipulate him (Hey, I've done it before ). I've often said that personal-based kills aren't all that smart for the Eliminators - But as someone under suspicion, anything I say along these lines would (and perhaps should) just be dismissed. So I don't think I can defend myself against this line of attack other than honestly saying that I am not an Eliminator, and that Kas's death surprised me as much as it surprised you - perhaps moreso, since he never mentioned to me that he was worried that he was going to die early. Looking through the last Cycle's votes, I would be very interested to find out why Peng voted for Dom, with no reasoning or discussion behind it.
  12. Wyrmhero
    Thank you for responding, Herwynbe. I have removed my vote for now. I'll have to agree that I am perhaps not reading peoples' arguments as closely as I should be. I think I may be a little out of practice, since it's been a while since I was alive long enough to examine arguments in a game. I'm probably also focusing a little too much on the people who didn't vote with my suspicions, at the moment. Not that I really know who I should be looking at closely, at the moment... I'll leave it for a little bit, for now, and have a better look when I've done some more work. Yes, I left my vote on him after leaving for the night, and you're right that I should have chimed in on the thread after his post. Part of the reason that I did not was that I was hoping for more information, or to discuss it with people in PMs, but that didn't really happen. In the end, I decided that rather than hastily changing my vote to an inactive (which would be mostly useless at that point in time), I would just leave it and see if anyone joined in to get more information - after all, one vote being on a person when there are two people up for the lynch already isn't exactly going to get them to talk. People did join my vote, but I didn't expect it to end in a lynch. Am I responsible for his death? Certainly, I helped to enable it. But my argument is that I could not expect such a thing to happen. So the other part of your argument is that I voted for the sake of it, and that I didn't expect him to die and be pulled up on it. As I said, I didn't expect him to die, you're right there. There's not really much that I can say to defend except this, but if I was trying to vote for someone who wouldn't get lynched, would I try to discuss my target with you guys first and ask your opinions? It is certainly possible that the Eliminators are trying to avoid giving information away through the lynch as much as possible, yes, but I have done nothing if not discuss who I vote for.
  13. Wyrmhero
    The other alternative is that a Tineye is keeping quiet now and not sending a message in. I would agree though that it's more likely that one was a Mistborn. Why did Kas die, of all people? He wasn't accusing that many people, and while he was a bit active in PMs, not as much as usual. But since he didn't have a Role, that would mean that, unless he lied to a player about having one, then he wasn't killed because of that, at least. That leaves two possibilities: Because he was experienced, or because an Eliminator had a connection to him (more useful if it's a connection inside this game than outside, as many people have a connection to Kas). I would be willing to bet far more on the experience than the connection, I think, since Eliminators tend not to just remove people who have accused them or anything like that. My suspicions at the moment are actually directed towards the people that are suspicious of the people who voted for Satram's death. Would you say the same if it had been Karand who died, or Ashette, or Dom who had died? It's very easy to throw cheap suspicions around for the first death, but what else should we do? Aim for a no-lynch and get no infromation whatsoever? If you were suspicious of Eolhondras, fine, it was a late vote. Wilson I can also understand, since five hours before is still relatively late. But why are you suspicious of me, Herwynbe? I find it hard to believe that you'd find me to be an accusation target based on the fact that I voted for the guy who was later lynched. I was the first vote, and for a long while, the only vote. In order for that to be an Eliminator setting up a lynch, I would need to either convince other people to follow my lead (and as Wilson has said, she never managed to properly reply to my thought in the PM, and no-one else discussed it either), or both myself and someone else would need to be getting people to vote for Satrams, since all the additional votes came in around three hours after I had logged off for the night. The third alternative is that both myself and Wilson are Eliminators. Either way, that would be sticking my neck (and probably someone else's too) out a lot for to get a single player on the first Cycle. You didn't want to vote during the first Cycle, but are perfectly happy to take advantage of someone else voting in the first Cycle at the same time. It seems as though you don't want to contribute new evidence, and making counter-accusations is very easy for an Eliminator to do when we are at the low-information stage of the game. As such, I'm voting for Herwynbe. As a small digression, let's aim for at least half the players voting this Cycle. I find it depressing that so few did not on the first day. Again, we need information. Information is everything, and those who refuse to contribute look more suspicious by the day.
  14. Wyrmhero
    I'm well aware that it's the Night Cycle - I only put that in red this Night Turn because you did the same during the first Night Turn . But I'm still not buying that as a real reason. You say you weren't eager to start the lynching, but that's entirely the point of the first day. I was pretty sure that, as the Right Hand of the Inquisition, you were behind the whole 'voting to get people to talk' thing. To come back and say that you didn't want to lynch anyone... Well, that's suspicious to me still. Also, while I remember. I mentioned to Wilson a thought I had about Satrams maybe voting for Karand to save someone. Now, obviously we know that's not true now, but it was a possibility (actually, in hindsight, it's a pretty terrible idea to do that this early in the game, unless the person you're saving has a really useful Role). But regardless of that, I find it interesting that Wilson went and used that idea to vote in the thread, without discussing it in the group PM at all.
  15. Wyrmhero
    It's a shame that Satram didn't get back on and explain why he voted for Karand. Might have actually managed to get some of the votes removed if he had (though mine would've stayed, since it would've been early morning for me). Regarding that vote, I would like to ask Eoladdin why he decided to go for Satrams out of the four possibilities for a lynch, rather than Herywynbe, Ashette and Karand. I would also like to press Jain for information. After being so eager to vote, why did you not in the end?
  16. Wyrmhero
    I am removing my vote from Karand for now, I have been convinced enough of innocence there for me to do so. Instead, I am going to comment on two things: Firstly, we have a high number of inactives. Secondly, we have a high number of no-votes. In the interest of changing at least one of these, I'm going to vote for Satrams. He's posted once so far during the previous Turn, but he hasn't said anything so far this turn after a day and a half to do so. What are your thoughts here, Satrams, and why haven't you said anything yet?
  17. Wyrmhero
    Ostrich, I'm aware that such a tactic can prove a little worrying or annoying for new players. I just wanted to bait you out a little and see your reasoning for not removing your vote. At this point, no votes I place are due to real suspicions, and they tend to be jump around a lot too A well-written post, Kas. You've lain out the points for why voting and discussing are so necessary very neatly there. To echo that point, it's all about information. Remember, people: even if you die, you can still win with your team. So we should not really be afraid of mislynching, provided that such a mislynch has a purpose. That's what is key to remember. We don't want to just all vote for someone at random together, we want to vote and discuss and counter-vote and so on. However, Kas, your vote for yourself rather strikes me as strange. You aren't in any danger here, nor are you being looked at particularly suspiciously either. There's no point in a vote for yourself, other than to perhaps prove your innocence in the case of your death if you are indeed a Villager. But what does that gain us, exactly? If you were a Seeker, then perhaps you could do so to confirm that you were telling the truth about other players' Roles and Alignments, but this is way too early to try that, with just a single Cycle to check on. Nor do you have enough suspicions to make it a good way of checking the Villagey-ness of your arguments. The only other thing I can see is that it's a trap, to get people to try and lynch you, and then have them turn on the lynchers when you are proven innocent (or turn on them before your lynch, if you are an Eliminators). But again, I'm not sure what the point of that is - The Eliminators don't need to force lynches this early, and generally you confuse the Villagers too much for that to bear any fruit - See Tulir in LG5. So overall, I'm not sure what you're trying to do, other than perhaps confuse people and get them to not vote for you. Please explain why you are voting for yourself. ...Although, can I just confirm with Meta that there is no Fool/Wit Role this game? >>
  18. Wyrmhero
    Kas asked what I was hoping to see from Jain from my vote earlier on. I was mostly wondering why Jain had not yet posted, but was really rather active in PMs. In addition to that, he wanted to get things started really early the previous Night Turn, so I found his relative inactivity to be rather curious. I'm not yet going to remove my vote just though. Part of that is because I still am curious about Jain, but I am also sitting on the fence about Eoladdin. While he could indeed be an Eliminator trying to phish for information, or trying to just get information spread out more (not necessarily to him), I really don't think that the Eliminators would hang one of their own out to dry so early like this. This gambit could be done later in the game, and if they really wanted to get rid of their own Tineye, they'd do it later in the game when they don't need the voting power quite so badly. As such, I am inclined to put Eoladdin in the clear, hesitantly. I'm not going to trust him, and I will keep an eye on him, but I won't be voting for him yet. So who should we look at instead? I think it should be the people who voted for Eolhondras, or at least started it off: Mailliw, Ostrich and Mek. Mailliw and Ostrich posted effectively simultaneously, so that's less likely to be a bandwagon, but Ostrich didn't remove his poke-vote afterwards. Perhaps an Eliminator attempting to get a lynch somewhat solidified? So, in conclusion, now I am going to remove my vote: Jain, Ostrich.
  19. Wyrmhero
    So, question here then is why Eoladdin would contact people in such a way. Curious. Very, very curious... I won't vote for him though, as he has three votes on him so far and I will want an explanation before anything else. That'll probably come when I'm offline, so really try to grill him, people Also, don't mention whether he was right or not here. It's a bad idea to even hint that you have a Role, let alone that you're not X or whatever.
  20. Wyrmhero
    Is that three people at least who have been hit by phishing attempts? >> Edit: Or is that just that you're asking for clarification there, Mek?
  21. Wyrmhero
    If they're trying to bluff being a Seeker, then they're almost certainly an Eliminator. The possibility of them being a Villager and trying to draw fire is a little silly, since it just makes us focus on someone who's on our side. Also bear in mind that someone being a Seeker does not clear them. I cannot stress this enough. Bartbug tricked the Village back in LG1; we don't want a repeat of that with an actual Seeker this game. For that matter, we need the Role to be confirmed in order to be certain of the person being a Seeker. Any Eliminator can come along and claim to be a Seeker otherwise, since they know everyone's alignments. This is also part of the reason why you shouldn't be giving away your Roles easily, since if one Eliminator has it, then they all have it. So in short, the only real way we can 'confirm' a Seeker is if their information leads to someone getting lynched (unless they decide that the loss of a player is worth it, which it very well could be). If someone contacts you claiming to be a Seeker, you should request all the people they have contacted and all their Roles as well, since you are all 'confirmed'. You can then check on the other players and double-check the Seeker, which you should do.
  22. Wyrmhero
    With a minimum of three people confirmed to be able to use Tin last Cycle, it's likely that either one was Mistborn, and the Eliminators have a Tineye. Note that this does not discount the Eliminators having a Mistborn, and posting that in order to try and trick us into lynching all the Tineyes looking for them. Now, we have two ways to go about things for this Cycle - Examining Alvron's death, or voting at random to force people to speak up. Alvron's death is difficult to analyse. He's an experienced player, and that would be a good enough reason to kill him as any. I wouldn't have said that his being the first death was suspicious either. Did he get in contact with anyone at all? Did he mention revealing his Role to anyone? Asking may be a little pointless, but it's still a good idea to do so just in case. Now, voting to get people to speak up. I'm moving away from this as an idea, if I'm perfectly honest, but we still need to get people to speak up. At the least, I know Jain has been on today and he hasn't posted yet, so I would like to hear why not from him.
  23. Wyrmhero
    Originally, this was meant to be posted over two hours ago, but my internet decided to die (as it does back here at home), and then my laptop decided to show me a black screen and only a black screen when I turned it back on and attempted to log in. I hope this post was worth it >>. Wyra muttered as she entered the forge, the heat hitting her suddenly as she stepped through the door. The fires were burning, and her employer was there at the bellows, stoking them to a suitable temperature. "I've counted them three times," she said with a bored sigh. "None of the nails are missing from the shop. They must have bought them sometime in the past, that's all I can guess." Though why her master had an exact count of nails of all things, she couldn't guess. If that was what being a master smith was all about, she probably was going to have to reconsider her career choice. The smith nodded, but said nothing, not even rewarding her with a glance over the shoulder. Wyra stood there awkwardly, waiting to be given her next pointless errand. He eventually finished his current task and stood up. He picked up a thick folder off from the desk nearby and brandished it at her. "Papers," he said. "Check for buyers." Wyra sighed. If she was going to be checking through her spider-writing for everyone who bought a few nails in the last year, she'd be here forever. But still, she was under his authority, and couldn't really say much about it. Well, she could, but it wouldn't get anywhere. He'd just give her one of those glares that could make a Mistborn cower, and wait until she started apologising and offering to work overtime just to make it up to him. She hated that he could still do that to her. "Fine," she said, forcing herself to take them rather than snatch them from his hand. She left again, muttering to herself about all the ways she'd get revenge when she stole his techniques and opened her own forge. Not that that would ever work out. Who would go to a female blacksmith, after all? She decided that, if she was going to spend the day looking through illegible handwriting, she'd much rather do it with a drink in front of her. Rumours were already flying around this place too, so maybe she could get in a fight with someone just for the hell of it. When she arrived at the tavern, she heard her name being mentioned. A traveler who'd been here a few days was sitting at one of the tables, slightly tipsy, and was proclaiming her to be the one who had boarded up the barracks. She grinned a little. Perhaps letting off steam wouldn't be too difficult after all. Panda might be a little over-eager, but the enthusiasm is good. The quicker we discuss, the better. And the first lynch will not be entirely guesswork either, since we'll be a player down. So it's a good idea to get things written down here regardless of whether or not we can actually vote at the moment, and it's not a bad idea to start PMs this early as well, even if nothing much gets said in them. The more people speak before someone dies, the better. They might not be able to give out particularly useful information, but you never know what interactions between players might spring up. Regarding an estimate of what we're dealing with here, I'd probably agree with doubling up on most Roles, except probably the Coinshot. The actual distribution though would depend on how many Eliminators there are. 28 people is probably too many for 5, so I might guess 6, but with more non-Allomancers. The last games with around that number had 5 max Eliminators (after conversions in LG2) and 6 in LG4. Last time though that Meta used less Eliminators rather than more, he compensated it by giving them a few more Roles, though admittedly there were a lot more Gunners than we expected that game . It would be just like Meta to troll us by giving them the complete opposite of what they had during LG1, but... I would say that it's pretty much a given that they have a Smoker. Coinshot we can basically rule out (unless there's half the expected number of Eliminators in the game, that is). Other than that, probably either a Soother or a Rioter. If there's six, they might have a Seeker to give them an additional Role that doesn't strengthen them too much. If there are five, I would probably expect them to have a Thug or a Lurcher. Mistborn... If there are two, it'll be one per side, most likely. If there's one, I might expect it to be a Villager, just because that's not how the previous game went. But we shouldn't be concentrating on this anyway. It's just worth remembering that they will almost certainly have some vote manipulation Role, and quite possibly a defensive Role too. I only mention it because now that someone has, we can leave it aside .

    I've been umming and ahhing over whether to join this one. On the one hand, this coming month is exam period and I really should be working. On the other though, we have a good mix of people, and although I've GMed one, I still haven't played a Scadrial game. So why not? I'm in. Just expect my participation to tail off near the end, if I survive that long (heavy if there). The choice of character is difficult, however. I would try something entirely knew, but the difficult bit is running out of new names... I shall be Wyra, a hardy young woman who tends to enjoy being confrontational for the sake of it. This has led to a few punches being thrown, both at and by her, and she's privately a bit pleased that her appearance has been marred a bit by the brawls - She is forever fearful of attracting a noble's eye, just out of principle rather than experience. Work-wise, she is somewhat odd in that she tends to help in the village smithy. While she herself would never be allowed to learn the secrets of the trade, from her time hanging around, she has picked a few things up. The smith tolerate having her around because her arguing skills come in useful when haggling, and she knows better than to scare customers off. So, let's see how this works out
  25. Wyrmhero
    Personally, I'm rather glad that it will be out for PS3, as that's the only 'new' console that I have access to. However, having said that, in two years time I will hopefully have a decent enough PC to run games like this, and probably wouldn't get it on PS3 anyway. However, I am very cautious about this venture. A video game based on the Cosmere is really appealing, but at the same time, I've seen a lot of games miss the mark when it comes to promises made and potential lived up to. My hope is that this feels more like an indie game than a large release, and that there is a lot of community feedback and support. It needs to be polished - Not visually impressive necessarily (though that would help a lot in this day and age), but it needs to give the impression of a finished game more than anything. It needs to be smooth and functional. My worry is that a bad game release could kill any potential of Cosmere-related works outside of the books/White Sand comic for a long while. And with so many bad things released recently, I am simply wary and cautious. However, it if all works well... Then who knows? We might see things become far more mainstream, which can only really be a good thing for the future of the books.
