Paths of Civilization II: Paths of Industrialization

Reader mode
IC:

I represent the Church of the Reborn Crow! Yes, we are a real religion! We can trace our beliefs all the way back to the ancient ymaryn! And what's more is, we have discovered ancient texts detailing the old beliefs! Did you know the ancient ymaryn called an asteroid down? Having looked over the texts, I bet we could do it again! Maybe to those assholes in the west!

Vote Dohok Mahto for parliament!

Or you could add more psedoscience stuff like metalight and see what happens. Like special materials with unique properties. Or more special events.

That wouldn't really do much for the issue of "wrote myself into a corner".
The "current" situation in PoI is one that AN is having a lot of difficulty writing for/around; adding more things on top of it will just make that even more difficult.

An apocalyptic event would reset the board so to speak, and would make it so that AN could kind of get s fresh-ish start on the setting.

Right now my biggest struggle is finding the motivation and energy to write regularly, so there are unfortunately some even more fundamental problems than my core frustration with the mechanics and the feeling that I wrote myself into a corner.

Rather than start a brand new quest, why not restart an old one?

A lot of us loved Amber Age and Age of Strife, so why not start a quest with a new spirit or on a different world? That way you still have most of the mechanics, but also have experience with what works and does not work, as well as not having to carry over anything.

    • Bit of a necro but I found this video to be quite relevant to PoC, especially how old technology (social and scientific) gets permanently lost for good then how humanity slowly (if ever) rediscovers it. We managed to sidestep this issue for a fairly long time yet even in our collapse we managed to preserve the vast majority of our civ's knowledge when that should have been impossible. My favourite example was at the 14:10 minute mark where he goes into detail about the Lycurgus Cup. Highly recommend you guys check it out.

    Mods take me away.




    Video is only 24 minutes long, the last 24 is a Q and A session.
