Hey, dear patrons! My first poll! Regarding the latest update. I will release another poll next week that will touch on a different subject.

Anyway, I'm curious what you think about the linear narrative storytelling in this one? I'm fairly certain I already know the answer to the question but I wonder if you like a truly free-roam game or a linear progression or perhaps a mix of both?

by a mix of both I mean: There are free-roam segments where you can advance with side characters, advance romantic interests, search for collectibles, look for secret encounters, etc. AND then there are linear Main-Story segments that drive the core narrative forward without interruptions. Sort of like, you are on a long drive through beautiful landscapes but occasionally you have to stop for gas and take a toilet brake. :D I've received very, very positive feedback regarding Episode 6 and am very happy that you're happy. I'm working on EP 7 as I write this. I will post a progress update next week where I'll explain where EP 7 is headed.

Here's a little pic of Florence:

You guys are AWESOME! :)Onyx

TFR is hard tomake well even for multi-million companies. Linear story is great for creative freedom within it's frame which supports the mechanics Mix of both is good middle ground before it becomes Afghanistan where empires go to die.

Free roam events are ok the first two or three times, but get tedious after so many different paths…IMHO…

Thanks for the poll! Your game is truly amazing and hope you have many more games in the future. Definitely deserves a release on Steam if possible down the road.

It was sort of a mix of both before last update and I liked that. You had a nice choice of when you wanted to do events.
