Dunno, as cute as it all was, would be nice to have had SOME real information. :p

It's only a matter of time before we're swimming in information, lore, backstory, and so on. Simu's always been real big on that.

I prefer them holding information back for now until they know for sure that what they're telling us is accurate. If they do tell us something wrong, or have to scrap an idea because it's unfeasible, then they'll get flamed because they "lied". Then those of us that are all loyal to Simu after bunches of years of wonderful gaming will be forced to flame right back and... yeah, better off this way.

Umm - so there are Jedi making this game. And based on the creatures Cinnamon is putting in it sounds like she bats for the dark side :)

Maybe it's just me, but reading these little "fluff" articles make me crave the game even MORE. Just reading how creative the GMs are leads me to believe that any storyline or quest will really get your attention and make you feel immersed in the game.

Maybe they just want to weed out players with no humour or no patience...

Ok I'm gonna come right out and say it:

I haven't been paying any attention *at all* to this title till now.  Oddly enough this "fluff" piece (which was quite funny by the way) got me very interested to see what this game is going to turn out as.  I've played a few simutronics games in the past so I know the company puts out high quality stuff.  The fact that the company is even allowing the dev team to post is revealing as well, they are being careful, of course, but they're also at least talking to us (when is the last time you saw 6 or 7 GM's from 1 game posting on an open forum in regards to the game they were working on?)

Anyway, thanks for the article... fun read and managed to pique my interest in the game :)  Well done... adding HJ to my list of 'must keep an eye on' upcoming MMO's.

Okay, okay, so my guild leader lost interest in HJ while working on their out reach white board dealio and I've only been checking on news once a month or so since about this time last year. Plus, I've avoided everything posted by Steph thanks to her 'no surprises in this game' post after saying the game will be about the RP and no tedium, besides the fact that I personally class tedium as having no surprises. Run on, end.

We know Wyr are cool. Sounds a lot like your standard equip upgrade via a slot type deal. Also a lot like City of Whatever's Enhance slot dealio. Just, I'd rather see you guys keep your dry wit soaking a bit longer and stop repeating stuff we know by sharing with us stuff we don't know. I've seen lore in bits and pieces over all the MMO covering pages. I've seen some screens and vids. Just, mind actually being fun and open with telling us what to expect in the game? Share with us good ideas that didn't make it? I understand what non disclose this and that means, but there has to be something worth sharing other than. "We're making a not surprising less tedium (note less is more than none) dress how you want RPG mmo." Wyr, check.. GMs make the world with cool tools. Check, check. Someone burnt the biscuits on Friday and now I'm going to go throw a cinder block at the old man's goat. Yeah, check, double check.

I've asked a few questions already, I'm going to ask one more then I'll hush up my rant.

Is anyone in that mad lil' house of wretched Mountain Dew drinking ne'er-do-wells planning on releasing an extensive lore / history / role-play nicely guide on the official web site or here or anywhere any time soon? Danke. There's someone above the restraints you folks are honor and blood bound to that can yea or nay that right?

Wow, that last one was the most nice-nasty post I think I've ever read. I bet we'll start getting more info when they get closer to beta, because that's when they'll have stuff pretty much nailed down at least so far as the basics, so just have a little more patience.

I get nice-nasty when folks label themselves something. LoL I like to see them earn it.

Plus I know this game is still a ways away off. Took me awhile to grasp that after being sold E3 before last, but thus is the nature of the business.
I'd just like to see more dev and less journal I suppose. Plus I'm serious about the soaking part. It was cute at first, but now they're just getting like W. Bush and his truthiness responses at press conferences. I'm surprised they're not making up words in these to the point we could sell calendars laced with HJisms.

"Pauldrons of Baking +3 pwnz"

Hopefully there's more character in the game.
Oh and when's the last time anyone from the team mentioned the nemesis system? Is it still in?

Have you looked in the HJ forum on this site? Scroll down the list on the left to 'In Development' and then click Hero's Journey, if not. There's a post about 'Questions To an Off-site GM' in the general discussion section.

And what do you mean by more characters? If by races, there's already three races with two subraces in each, and more on the way after release. If you mean mobs (enemies and monsters) there's likely to be tons of them, just like any other game.

LoL More 'character' as in personality. Not anything with development.
Plus I'm not asking for this stuff in a forum post, in the next developer's journal. Helping them try and get some filler other than their corny cornish cornisms.

Well, regrettably, they're not going to pay you much attention. They value their jobs more than they value your opinion, and they can say no more than their bosses allow. As long as they are under the NDA, or too busy actually working on the game to satisfy slobbering fanboys, they won't give you any more details. So you may as well just calm down and go speculate on things. Or better yet, come up with tons of ideas for the game. Maybe you'll be able to make some suggestions that actually interest them enough to push for it to be in the game.
