Okay, since Toady is going to go for monthly releases anyways, he's probably going to get a lot more changes squeezed into every version.

So, I'd like to see opinions and guesses. Opinions on what do you think Toady should get done next, and guesses on what will he get done next. Next being in the next one-two months, and apart from fixing game-breaking bugs, obviously.

So far there are a lot of Big Things floating about, every next one bigger than the previous. Of those, there are very few within fathomable range.

My opinion (or should I say "wish"?) is that generalizing materials, liquids, items, and skills within the game (and the raws) should be the Next Big Thing.

As for my guess...  Toady will probably resume work on the Army Arc, like adding patrols and specific functions for nobles.

This thread has no point or value whatsoever, it's just made out of curiosity. A poll would be nice though..

You guess is an awful lot like exactly what he said in the Future of the Fortress page!  I see through your scheme.

Magic should be in next big release, I hope

[Baro]

Magic??? awwwww I didn't know he was going to add that junk.

Magic would kick ass, especially if it's like the magic in Armok 1.

[Tormy]

the next big thing will be the military system. Magic would be awesome to have as soon as possible.   :cool:
[Especially if we can modify and add spells]

[Capntastic]

I'm fairly certain magic is pretty far off, but who knows- we might get surprised.

[Vodalian]

I hope 'the next big thing' involves adventure mode  

[qwertyuiopas]

yes, being able to use a pick would be nice...
Or even being able to find a place to get one...

Sorry, what was magic like in Armok 1?

Why not see for yourself? http://www.bay12games.com/armok/download.html

I played that, but got a glitch where I was targeting a spell, but could not, so the save was ruined.

Turning your body parts to stone is fun in that game.  

[PTTG??]

I really hope that the 'raws generalization' is next, along with the related general tiding up; things that are just a little off, like how trees only get one useful log a piece, and all furniture uses 3 bars of metal, no matter what, and beds only need wood, and all the other little nitpicky stuff. I would love that!

I wand bugfixes too, although I havent had bugs yet.
