Hello everyone!

Now that you have a reminder of what happens after the prologue, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the concept of the prologue and what you consider to be its ideal length.

Please keep in mind that what you've seen in version 0.24 is not our final goal for the prologue. It currently contains the introductory quest but lacks the depth of Kalyskah's struggle to regain control over the island and many other planned quests. Our aim has always been to depict Kalyskah as a ruthless leader with no compassion for humans, allowing your choices to lead her towards growth or a deeper descent into loathing for the living.

I've been considering whether we should continue expanding the prologue with content that showcases Kalyskah at the peak of her power or focus solely on the main story there and return to Millhaven as soon as possible. Therefore, I'm creating this poll to ask how much time, apart from the main storyline, you would like to spend in the tropical jungle setting of the prologue. Keep in mind that there's still a large city to be completed, which will eventually be almost as populated as Millhaven.

I mean it shouldn’t be too big otherwise it kind of becomes too disjointed in my opinion. Was thinking maybe like Witcher 3 prologue.

I think the prologue should be long but only as necessary, if you want to tell the story of someone's past, and not just any someone(talking about the strongest vampire in the world) i dont think the prologue should be rushed and neither too long. it should also have quests that requires Kalyskah to put each of her abilities on display(allowing the player to get more familiar with her as a character and her powers).
