[quote=@Zeroth] Update is go! As always, let me know if anything was missed, concerns, clarity etc! Also, in the interest of bolstering more activity, does anyone have anything they think has maybe not quite been up to par they'd like to suggest fixes for? I know most of you are basically ambush hunting/tracking and thus literally have to kinda wait for stuff passively to happen, but I don't want to run into some of the same stagnation problems I had last time when I ran "I, the Demon King, Will Summon My Own Damned Heroes!" (also known by the fan name for its anime adaptation, KusoYuusha!) The fact that the System gives you quest and exploration prompts is an effort towards that, but if there's anything else that could be done I'd love to hear your takes! [/quote] Yeah, I figured the "kill and eat to gain skills" thing was a response to us playing around with magic in the forest and never actually doing anything to explore or advance the plot. I don't know. Personally I don't like it when the groups get too big in this as it makes responding to everyone harder, but you've been consistently pushing us together; I get why you do it, but I personally find it makes things harder and I end up ignoring peoples posts. But I think a lot of the slowness is just us still being little baby orcs with not a lot of options; not really sure how to fix that but hopefully we can wrap this first quest up soon and get back to camp to have some options. I'm also hoping for some more personal interactions this time around. I want to write a [i]character[/i], not a power gamer this time; but that's on me to do, and whoever else wants that, not you. Also, holy shit, is that a [i]Flak Beetle[/i]! Someone that isn't me should totally throw fire at that thing.
