Another thing to bear in mind though, is that it sucks for the people who didn't vote wrong. Let me clarify: All joking aside, not a single one of us voted "Right" consistently. We have all voted for Good things and Oh My God You loving Morons, How Could You Do That things. Every winning vote robbed the losing vote of a direction they wanted Enkidel to go. It's one thing to lose a vote, and Enkidel goes South instead of to Send or Kadmonim (sp?) Country, at least the game goes on. But when the losing voters are effectively punished (or feel that way) because other people voted to open the Giant door that not-so-secretly ends the game, it's pretty disappointing. With MadGod, at least, the fact that each voter WAS an individual entity inside of Denziroh gave them a chance to try to fix things when everything went to hell, but to have to sit by helplessly as a B voter because 3 more people voted for OPEN THE GAME-OVER GATE YOLO, that just feels pretty lovely.

I didn't want to experiment, and I didn't want to open the door - and yet here we are. I'm upset about it too - it's part of the reason I fully intend on not voting anymore when Judah is up and running. I can't bare to watch another character of ours have that happen to them. It's a bitter pill to swallow, but us going on and on about it isn't helping anything. Diogines is doing what he's doing, and isn't budging. No sense in ruining the experience for those who still want to give Game Number 2 a go, is my thinking.

Please for the love of God can we we stop whining about the loving door? Can we quit with the idea that opening the door was the bad choice here? Not opening the door was certain death as well. There was no good or bad choice there. We were already doomed at that point. You could argue that we doomed ourselves at the teleport, but basically from the second we got Stealth Demon in our party, we were dead.

Can't wait to play as Judah. I kind of want to kill some bandits for our manhood trial. Maybe take an oath that we will make the Donut a better place and that men should be free?

I've been following the thread from the start but I haven't voted in ages since I can't be bothered to get involved with the masses of posts - I prefer just reading the updates. That said, I would really like a reload - mostly because there wasn't really any closure for Enkidel, and I really enjoyed the uncovering the mysteries of the world part of the story. Saying that we might find out more even if we play as a different character feels a bit unlikely, as the two options we now have don't really have the leverage to get information like Enkidel did simply by being what he was. Being a Mighty Man will never be as special as being whatever the hell Enkidel was, and I can't see Ish creating something potentially dangerous/interesting as Enkidel in Ashael. I get the points that Diog raised as problems with Enkidel, but to be honest, having NPCs be slightly less cryptic and providing more information on our powers is something you can change (I mean we got a mana meter and a text description of our state whenever we want, why not more info?). Same thing applies to being clearer with information relevant to a decision - these are things fully within your power to change Diog, regardless of which character we're playing. What you can't change is the investment people feel in a character that they've been with for 3 years. That is the biggest issue for me, and it sounds like other people feel the same way.

You could argue that we doomed ourselves at the teleport, but basically from the second we got Stealth Demon in our party, we were dead. As has been pointed out to you before, it's not obvious that Enkidel getting squished would end his story, and for that matter Diog gave us good odds of escaping if we ran for it. You deliberately chose a fate worse than death instead of those options, and you got it.

We can be one of those cool managers, who really understands the job, and has hands-on experience, not just a degree from a university.

There should ideally be time before we need to take over for granddad where we can wander up to Baitel for a few years of war training for sure. I forget though, would we need to convince them to take us or is just being well Blooded enough?

Realistically there should be plenty of time before we have to become king, if we're even selected for that, there could be other uriah bastards. I really want to take a nice long trip around the donut to get to learn about the different cities. Batiel U sounds awesome too, we should have time to do a lot of stuff.

Are we already making life plans for Judah? 16-22: Train with our weapon of choice, learn how to king from granpda, get a feel of the cities around us. Form a merchant band, with wealth plus contacts we should be able to be decent at this. Form a group of people we feel comfortable fighting with, try to stop bandit attacks around our city. 22-30: Go to Baitel, try to time this with the destruction of Ibleam so we can see how the church higher ups reacted, get some info about wether Seir and the Kadmonin lands to the east also got attacked at the same time (wait, the mass attack wasTanaach, not Ibleam, and they were like 20 years apart or something, maybe someone else can help me here). We study in the Academy, get a wife, party with old dudes, get friendly with the priesthood and approval to be king. And PLOT HOOK we are descendants of Zepa. 30-???: Maybe we go to Zepath, something probably has happened in Tadmor and we may be needed there

I'd only want to go back to Zepath if Enkidel reloads as an NPC. Judah's father would be the big hook here and if we, as players, know he's dead then there's no real point in going.

We don't know whether or not Judah's father is dead. Besides, it seems weird for there to not be a point in going if he were—we'd be discovering what the hell the story was, learning who our actual blood relatives are, etc.

I see 30+ being us establishing ourselves in Tadmor, maybe capturing a Bnaimokt to interrogate on their tactics near Acco, maybe finding a Ball of Labaras to question on tactics used by them at Ibleam. The Bnaimokt connection is what I see interesting Judah. They are a well organized and disciplined military, he wants their secrets If he ever learns about them. Otherwise we innovate on military affairs ourselves

(by the way someone told us that we were the spawn of enkidu back in the day, I don't understand how that guy didn't freak the gently caress out, or how we didn't make a bigger deal out of it). "Hello, I'm Judah of Tadmor, I'd like to study at the Academy" "Nice to meeee...of Tadmor you say?"

If you guys really want answers about Enkidel's abilities, then one of our goals has to be the seduction of a female melachim. Make another abomination.
