Welcome to Exsilium's first ever State of the Game.
How does this work? What is a State of the Game?
Good questions! This is an open forum for the community to raise comments, concerns, things they like, and things they don't like as much about the game to see what fellow players think, feel, or what to see around the game.
As topics are brought up and discussed, we'll link them here from the top post*, and hope that this helps encourage people to have their critical thinking, constructive idea hats on when it comes to discussing different elements of game culture, expectation, and the like.
This isn't a guarantee everything discussed can, should, or will change, but it's the opportunity to bring up points on what it is you see working and what it is you feel isn't, so that people can weigh in and the moderation team can go about getting direct feedback from the game as a whole.
Please keep it civil and polite. We will lock threads should they get heated! We're asking for discussion, not attacks. That sort of behavior is never considered appropriate.
It's always been a little difficult to touch base with housemates, especially because housing tends to get assigned way later than the start of the month, and by that time a lot of people have already intro'd and so people becoming roommates tends to get either overlooked or just forgotten about.
I was thinking maybe we could have a midmonth Roommates CR Meme of some sort? I've always been puzzled as to why the CR Meme is at the end of the month, right before all the newbies can actually use it. It seems to make much more sense to me to have it midmonth to help the new folks settle in. So maybe a consolidated meme like that would work too!
Either way, I'd just like an easier way to get in touch with roommates, because I feel like whether or not you get roomie CR is entirely dependent on either luck or tracking them down like a creeper. :p
I think this is a good idea! I like never...look at the Housing page or pay attention to it so I never know who my roommates are for one of my characters is at least, and they rotate pretty often so it slips my mind a lot to even think about getting CR. Having a meme focusing on roommate CR/next door neighbor CR (since housing is split into wings now and people are situated closer together) or at the least including a section for location/roommates in the CR meme might go a long way.
I've also always been confused as to why the cr meme is right at the end of the month. It would make more sense at the beginning/mid point of the month, once drops have been processed and new folks have come in.
