Being quite honest, I still think it's bullshit how mortals haven't discovered the wheel on their own by now. It seems like mortals can't do anything without some God or Goddess inspiring them.

Ditto.

I get that since they based their (demi)gods around technology those few people want to be the ones to make wheels and so on, but if their monopoly over that form of technological advancement holds the RP back then it should be broken.

From past conversations I know that we're fairly divided (some would've liked to just breeze into a medieval-LOTR era as we did in the last Divinus, whereas others are really savoring this primitive stage) but I think we all can agree that there needs to be some steady progression. To any that really want to keep RPing in a Stone Age setting, my answer is to make a separate planet in the RP that has a lower technology level. Easy. Then that opens up Galbar to more storyline potential.

So, my stance on the issue: I'm all in favor of getting technology chugging along, and I see no issue with Lazarus, Amartia, or anyone else contributing (albeit in what's probably a smaller way). Trying to seize complete control of technological advancement for Teknall and the demisisters is about as extreme as Zephyrion and his elementals assuming control over the formation of all landforms and me telling everyone else that they can't make these mountains and oceans. There can be some middle ground, folks.

I'm not adverse to technological advancement, I just adjust myself to the pace of the RP - but I also think we shouldn't play it like Civ V; this is a creative writing as a collaboration, not a video game. However, I won't stop anyone.
