Game Feedback: Mid-May

Because Aefenglom exceeded all expectations this app round - we have a solid 102 players, meaning 102 characters, all in the first month of the game - we've decided to open the opportunity for feedback.

Namely, for us and the game!

We're so grateful to each and every one of you for your excitement and questions, your receptiveness and engagement with us and the game, and are really looking forward to seeing where the game goes from here. It's been an exciting month so far, and we have a lot in store for everyone in the oncoming months.

But we want to hear from you. Aefenglom has an open door policy, and always will, because we want to foster a mod/player relationship that means we can work together to make this game amazing. Whether it's something you'd like to see implemented differently, information you would like clarification on, a mechanic that you have some criticism for - whatever it may be, we're here to listen.

Talking Points:

• Info posts that you'd like clarification for.
• Discord server; see the midmonth post for details regarding this.
• Bimonthly app rounds. With such a big first round, how would everyone feel about us moving to bimonthly app rounds? This wouldn't start this round, but would start in June - meaning there wouldn't be an app round at the end of June, but there would be one at the end of July.
• Quests. In general, what kind of quests would you like to see more of? How can we improve with these? What's working, and what isn't?
• Plot investigation feedback.
• General feelings on: the game, the timing of posts, and the combination of the CR Meme with the OOC Intro.
• The Test Drive Meme and its setup, and if characters already in the game should be able to post it upcoming ones as well or if it should remain potential characters only. Remember, the TDM is game canon regardless due to its shared dream nature, similar to a normal event!
• And more! Tell us what's on your mind.

We honestly appreciate all kinds of comments, and we want to make Aefenglom a wonderful, fun, and comfortable game for everyone who joins. This post will remain unscreened, so if you'd like to take something to a more private venue, you can either PM us or comment here.

I'm catching up now so I really hope you guys don't mind a late comment!

+ I really really really would love a discord server. I don't look at plurk as often as I do with discord, so it'd be nice to have somewhere I can jump into easily, especially on mobile.

+ Bimonthly app rounds, from a player stand point, are very manageable. I think it's kind of hard to get into a game that has apps and new people each month, mostly because it's SO many people, especially when the game is as amazing as this one!

+ I like the quests that we had in may! As some feedback though, the information can be a lot on the quests and event. It's hard for me to read long streams of texts in one go and I get a little overwhelmed! I'm not sure if it's just me and how I interpret information, but it'd be super helpful to have a little snapshot or summary for those that have a hard time with that!

+ Thank you guys for making such a wonderful place! I really anxious about joining another game with this type of setting and you guys have made it fun and encouraging! I honestly can't even express how happy and thankful I am!
