I would go for option 1.

I also support option 1, as I want to see what kind of cool systems PW will dream up. Plus, I like the idea of living in the subsumed lands and fighting through them, as well as raids.

[Nunzillor]

The second one seems to fit the theme a lot better, I think. The formless in some semblance of form, a nightmarish conglomeration of nonsense and fuckery. Adult Wonderland.

+1

[Empiricist]

Option 2, if and only if it's this katamari-style blob that's slowly rolling forwards, the earth beneath it getting stuck to it as it rolls forwards towards the holy city, rolling up ramps and mountains.

Otherwise, Option 1.

[NJW2000]

1 could be cool, buuuut... 2 seems a bit better, given the limitations of one rather busy man.

So Option 2.

[Pancaek]

I'm leaning more towards option 2. Mostly because I think it fits better, and also because "it's magic, I ain't gotta explain shit" might save both you and us some hassle later on if used sparingly.

[Ozarck]

I envisioned Oro more as option one actually. I prefer it, though perhaps a biiiiiit abstracted. I feel that some bits of option two could be leaked in in places, but those leaks could be well defined.

Also, as for the "stops to explore every house" question from earlier - someone mentioned having the searches resolve in a single turn: "you find nothing of interest." or whatever. If someone wanted to do a more specific search "Well, then, I look for a set of cutlery and a single, cracked china teacup." you could force that to occcur in the next zone. Or even have a "search area" portion of the events of an area, like such:

team enters area, description follows.
is hazardous?
------>yes = no search for you. action instead.
------>no = search area. all searches, general or specific, occur now.
``````````find hazard? action turn
``````````find valuable or interesting? interaction turn.
actions resolve, move to next area.

or, one's faith meter, or even a second meter - sanity, or zone risk, or something (the ghost hands from Zelda, reaching out of the walls to yank you in) could count down continually, forcing actions to be short or few.

[Hapah]

I'd go with the second, if only because it seems like it would be easier for you...you're a busy man and I don't see that changing. Plus you just know you'd get into endless detail nitpick arguments with the first path, and I know how much you love those.

Time for Urban Souls: Prepare to Corrupt edition.

[Egan_BW]

so basically bloodborne then

[MidnightJaguar]

I like 1 myself.

damn vertical maps.

[Radio Controlled]

damn vertical maps.

Then just put the map on a table already.

Anyone here somewhat interested in the game but not gonna play? I'd like to have someone to look over things occasionally for a second opinion, but SEKRITS prevent me from allowing everyone from doing it.

[Egan_BW]

Oh, that's a hard choice. Play the game, or have seeecerates?
Me! Me! Pick me! I'm totally not terrible at keeping secrets!

[Pancaek]

I'm absolutely great at keeping secrets, because I barely talk to anyone anyway so the chance of me leaking anything is close to zero. I do plan on playing though, so there's that.
