Feedback request!
So, after long last, the Hero of the Mountain plot is mostly over. [I say mostly since the log is kinda on going even if the threads seem to have slowed to a crawl... Anyone who wants to just get the info on how things went down, feel free to pester for spoilers!]
As this was the first plot of this scale that I've done here, I am very eager to hear everyone's thoughts on how it went. I really hadn't expected it to go for this long!
One of the things I have noticed is that I need to remember to let you guys know more often that there are no set "right" solutions to problems in Einmal (with veeeery few exceptions.) Especially for exploratory plots, everything is pretty open ended and I quite often will be making things up as I go. So if your character wants to lob a fireball at something and see what happens, go for it! Rub everything in your inventory on it like it's an old school RPG! And you can always poke with a list of "So, my character is going to try everything on this list until something works, which things will work?" to speed the process along if you wanna. I am debating having some sort of chatroom or something for people to toss ideas around and chat OoCly like it's a D&D group to hopefully better get things flowing and I totally encourage people to get on Plurk and wave the gang down for stuff too.
As always, if you wanna give feedback privately, you can pester me on AIM, PM or on Plurk.
Also, would you guys like there to be a history page for the game? Just something to cover the quests and mini plots and developments so far without the NPC chatter from the daychanges.
