CSG update #8 - The Shuttle Bay

Pic_shuttle_bay_zps17yndjzg.jpg

^ The Shuttle Bay in all its faded glory

Like many locations overflowing with toxic masculinity it’s guarded by unfriendly men with guns and low social awareness – a militia outfit known as Jackson Riflemen.

The Riflemen have a ‘complex’ belief system that prevented them from allying with any major faction. They want to be free, so they are in agreement with the Brotherhood on many issues. At the same time, they value tradition, which is what the Protectors are selling. Last but not the least, they loosely follow the word of Jesus Christ - “read the Bible as interpreted by experts”, which makes them open to the sermons of the Church of the Elect.

So the best way to explore this location is via “diplomacy” by securing an alliance with one of the factions which might be trickier than you think as the Riflemen aren’t really a team player eager to take orders from the city slickers. If anything they are a force of chaos waiting for the right opportunity to be unleashed.

The second best way is by taking advantage of the new stealth system and sneaking in (just don’t get caught as the Riflemen are a firm believer in capital punishment). The third best way, meaning the absolute worst way, is to attack this well-defended location head-on, but hey, it wouldn’t be a role-playing game if we didn’t let you do something stupid to learn a valuable lesson or two.

One of the endgame scenarios is an all-out war and the Riflemen are a good ally to have. They make (and trade) high-quality guns and even have a couple of riotfreedom droids they managed to fix.

After DR is released, too busy now.

Oh, i was sure that all is done already, you just wait for music or something.


p.s. 184 pages of discussion if Dragon age 3 on Rpgcodex is also depressing for you, or you are optimist?

The game is done, but I have a lot of 'admin' work to do plus testing.

I haven't played it but judging by the number of pages I assume it's a very thought-provoking game.

You know, you have a good sense of humour, comrade. I suspect you are the one who was responsible for writing texts in AoD, which is FULL of humour (almost every dialogue has it).


p.s. Please make fights AoD level hard (though combat gets easier the further you in story, hardest fights in game were in Teron). Maybe make endgame fights more difficulty than first fights? But even if you do not do this, i still know it will be great game.

I'm the lead designer/writer so it's my domain.

The game is very hard (on AoD level) and doesn't get any easier. In all 50 fights there was only one fight fairly early that was easy and I asked Oscar to tweak it. Most fights would require many attempts to beat them and some people would have to give up and restart the game on lower difficulty.
