> Back when we started the game we had no way of knowing just how bad things would get in the following years... Hell, to me the burning of Notre Dame came out of left field, I wasn't expecting anything of the sort to happen, let alone a pandemic and now a war between Russia and Ukraine.
True, however I would gladly change being a citizen of the country waging an unjust war for another lockdown. :) It's not that bad as it can be though, so let's hope, that things starts to get better from now on, and not like this.
> But I suppose that only makes our choice to work on this game more justified, because we wanted to create a story that would be like a friend to people, that would help them heal.
That's also true, the game is just beautiful, interesting, and, should I say, really cosy, like a 'close friend' cosy. Though I would never complete the "bad master" route, I just can't hurt Asterion at all. :)
> So reading what you wrote tells me we are on the right track.
Hell yeah. :D
By the way, I saw an USSR international passport in the game, when MC checks the hotel's front desk safe. Do you plan to add a Russian character? I understand, that it's a bad time to talk about anything Russian, though I would certainly enjoy such character even if they play only a small part in the plot, as Greta and Ismael.
> I'd be happy to hear your work, too! I always check all the discussion here so you can be sure I take a look at everything that gets posted.
We all have to start somewhere (sometimes, again and again). It's better be now, than in a couple of years, even if the world around is coming apart at the seams.
> And I hope getting your nose pierced didn't hurt too much!
Thanks. :) Not much, but hurts even now, though it's kind of pain I love.
> I think you'll like what we have in store. It's more of the good stuff. It will bring joy.
Oh, trust me, I will. :)
