freespace2dotcom Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Can you give an overall percentage? You've been giving progress updates on VB for a while. Can you at least say what still needs to be done? You've said that Y2 looks better than Y1 did on release. You've said that the writing is done. (It's had to have been edited for some time now, also...) You've only said that the UI still needed work, but from what we've seen of DLC17, I can't see anything being left SAVE for minor tweaks and editing, and some Beta bugfixing, but that's another matter. Considering the original plan for Y2 was supposed to be a release a year or so after Y1 hit, It has been hard waiting with no news incoming. Can you at least tell us a few funny anecdotes about the delay in development.. PLEASE!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 1. While Temporary revisions can be made to make one thinner or fatter, what kind of magic exists to help lose or gain weight permanently as needed? Indirect I think glamour should do the trick for reduce weight in reduce the feeling of hunger and make all food taste bland. But the main reason for real overweight we have to face today (cheap sugar combined with to less exercise) should only be apply for very few persons.

Legate of Mineta Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Free; Oh no. Sorry, I cannot speak on completion again. Not after what happened last time! Funny anecdotes? Hmmm. The first day I came back to school, my enemies, which hadn't forgotten what I had done in Y1, ganged up and got me expelled. Suffice to say...that's fixed.

freespace2dotcom Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Bwahaha! That ought to keep me satisfied for another month! Also slightly worrying at the same time, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 1) how many points are the relationship drop toward 0 during the holiday in the current test version of year 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Schwarzbart; 2 per Month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Gonna have to remember to write lots of letters. Honestly though it probably shouldn't drop all the way to 0. Maybe 1 or -1 would be ideal to represent that the PC isn't completely forgotten and a little bias remains. Unless it was already at 1 or something.

Schwarzbart Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Wow that is a lot I suspected it more toward only 1 per month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhialto Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Will there be a limit on how many times per day/week characters can correspond with friends? Because one of my characters has many friends. 1. Are professors who are not regents formally parts of colleges? 2. Does Academagia teach boxing at any level? 3. Is Professor Massioti heavily involved in Academagia's competitive archery efforts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Schwarzbart & Free; It can't go below 1, fortunately. Rhi; Yes, it takes a full action. 1) Not necessarily. 2) Hmmm. I don't think so. 3) If it's sports and competition, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhialto Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Does this mean that some professors who are not regents are explicitly associated with colleges? I ask because the weaponsmithing lore strongly suggests to me that Professor Pluiete is a professor belonging to Vernin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 What kind of professor was Von Rupprecht before he became regent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Rhi; Some are connected, but others are not- for instance, Professor Knoht. Free; I'm not sure, actually! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhialto Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Interesting. I would have thought that Knoht would be associated with Godina, given its association with incantation. Is there a fixed policy within Academagia or individual colleges about how professors should be affiliated with the colleges? I would think, for example, that the cliquish Aranaz, especially under von Rupprecht, would love to have all professors who teach its required subjects be formally associated with Aranaz. Is Sido associated with a college? On a completely different note, what financial obstacles would have prevented Rexus the stage magician from gaining at least basic magical training? Were finances his chief obstacle to studying magic? He had discipline and dedication and moral fortitude and manual/spatial training/intelligence.

Legate of Mineta Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Rhi; There isn't a fixed policy, but then again you are right about Aranaz. Almost always it's financial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhialto Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 1. what is the government of Pievre like? Republics historically have had many forms, so is Pievre a direct democracy, a representative democracy, an oligarchy, a state ruled through sortition, a communist state, etc? 2. Given the deep distrust of Pievre by the other states, was there tension at Academagia towards admitting students from Pievre? 3. Are most of the mage-students of Pievre currently studying in Pievre? 4. Would Academagia accept a student or professor from Oursouk?

freespace2dotcom Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 5. Regarding Pievre's All magic Academy, Has any of the Academagia's faculty visited it, and if so what was their opinions on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 1) It's complicated. I really should refer you to the Lores for the only hints. 2) Yep! 3) Yes. 4) Sure, it's happened before. Why...in your current class, [redacted]. 5) They have not...publicly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhialto Posted June 24, 2017 Report Share Posted June 24, 2017 1. What name does Rikildis's newspaper have? 2. For how long has Academagia had a school newspaper? 3. Does Academagia's newspaper have any professorial/staff oversight/censorship/supervision, or is it purely student-run? 4. Will there be more opportunity to get involved in the school newspaper in Y2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Rhi; 1) Ooooh, I don't recall, but it's in the Lores. 2) That is a question hidden in the depths of time. 3) Student run. 4) Yes, sadly the Newspaper system was cut for Y1, but it's back in Y2.

Rhialto Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 1. Are all Oursouki insane, or just those who practice magic? 2. Is there a stereotype at Mineta that Oursouki are insane, or is the association between Oursouk and madness not generally known? 3. Would Academagia fire any professors if they were to reveal that they visted the all magic academy in Pievre? 4. Does Vernin College have a policy related to selling student art? by this I mean such thing as: connections with art dealers, a standard system to auction off student art and divide the proceeds, etc. If not, is Regent di Lucca Alazzo considering implementing such a policy as a way to raise money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Rhi; 1) Only the mages. 2) Not particularly no- the more common stereotype is that they are Draconic agents. 3) I guess we'd have to find out. 4) What you create at University belongs to the University, and there are indeed such patronage stores.

Schwarzbart Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 1 - How common is it that someone who was a apprentice to a other mage and finished this apprenticeship enter as student at Academagia? 2 - What year would such a mage enter as student in Academagia? 3 - Is be a apprentice with a other mage the most common way to become a mage or is it university like Academagia?

Legate of Mineta Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 S; 1) A formal apprentice? Very rare. 2) It could be any of the 5. 3) It is the most common. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhialto Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 1. Is there any contempt by university-trained mages towards apprentice-trained mages? 2. Are there attempts by governments to regulate the apprenticeship system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
