Thanks for your feedback, Perita.
About the cards: they have different effects when used in different NPCs or questions.
But they were designed to generate the same dialogues when used in the same question or NPC.
The challenge is trying to guess or imagine which result the card will get on a specific question, considering
the matter and the NPC personality.
I think it helps a bit, but i still sometimes get confused.
I captured an example and i am going to “transcribe” my thoughts, so you can decide if there is really something confusing, or it is just that i am too dense, which it might well be.
At some point i had this screen:
And this was my reasoning:
I want to save the wild card for later, so not that one. Not the brew card because there is no drinking or magic involved in this situation. Wisdom card is hard to tell, because it is “common sense” for whom, her or the wizard? I’ve been bitten by this before. Seems that attack card is the best, because in a previous run it worked when she asked me “what kind of dangerous gigs are you cooking up?” and the response was some kind of dish specially for her.
I chose attack, and the response was:
I am pretty sure that the problem is me seeing the two situations, the one with the food and the one with other party-goes, as more or less “the same”, and expecting that i could use the same card for both.
Sorry that i can not be of much more help.
