Articulate Vlish Steel Angel Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I start the game not wanting to get out of bed which I imagine could be caused by a hangover. My mother is in charge, doesn't trust me, but still makes me go into the field on a dangerous mission. I have a butler named WoodStonehouse. I can't always remember npcs I should be familiar with from my character's past. I'm actually a capable field agent but will almost assuredly screw something up diplomatically. I'm going to be very disappointed if I can't go into rambling dialogue about information that is true but not relevant to the danger at hand or I don't come back to base once and find that Stonehouse has gone off on a skribbane fueled sabbatical for a few weeks.

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Don't worry Stonehouse will always be around. He just needs to take something to help him deal with you. One thing about Jeff's games is there are almost always plenty to dialogue and some of it is even useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Slarti Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Somebody asked this in the AMA the other day. Q: "Is Stonehouse a reference to Woodhouse from Archer? Furthermore, does this make our adventurer a medieval Sterling Archer and the Queen would be Mallory Archer?" Jeff's reply: "Yes. If you want it to be." (I confess, this immediately made me like the queen a bit more.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not exactly a 1:1 fit but it does add something to the experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt TriRodent Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Sadly I don't believe that my suggestion to include "huge tracts of land" somewhere in Ft Bannerspire's description was ever implemented...

Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I did write Queen's WIsh so you can behave in a very Archerish way if you want to. I thought the huge tracts of land quote was a little too on the nose for Fort Bannerspire. People already get the reference. Also, I didn't have anyone there to say it, as everyone already fled/was eaten/was absorbed into a slime monstrosity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt TriRodent Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 I guess it's good/too bad that there wasn't a Castle Anthrax/Zoot ish encounter somewhere... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
