And actually "pleasanter" is listed as the MAIN comparative form of "pleasant" in all three dictionaries I checked (paper, none of this online bullshit). "more pleasant" isn't even listed as an alternative in the OED. I'm surprised it's even a word, I didn't think it w...

Thanks for the feedback - very kind, sir!

Thanks man - Proxy have done a stellar job. Rok *never* stops.

Thanks!

(Goddamn, Rok got there first. You've gotta watch him, he's fast!)

(Dan here, the writer). Yarp, what Rok said. I wrote it around Gliese 667 Cc, I think. We had a hell of time getting that timeline straight.

Haha! He also had the ethos of 'gloire', which meant he devoted the state to showing the glory of France, the French people, his family and himself - in reverse order - even if the country as a whole was bled white by the relentless wars up to 1715. Less relevantly, yes, whilst he did create the fir...

Hallo! Yes, mild internet fame. Adam from RPS tweeted that the developers needed a writer, so I volunteered. All sorts of fun ensued.

Please, scrutinise hard. I need good feedback. If it's too ponderous, or too silly, let me know!

Divine Ascencion when offering a treaty, non-aggression(?) , starts off with "it came to me in a golden shower ". Is that supposed to be joke or you never heard of that particular sexual fetish? It's mentioned above, it's a classical reference (Zeus came to Danae in a golden shower) which...

Dan here, the writer. Comments on the humour noted.

If you've got any specific feedback - say, if any lines particularly jar or don't work for you - please drop them into this thread and I'll look at them.

I guess I'll just post here to say that I also feel the humor doesn't quite "work" for me. Maybe it's just not well fleshed out enough? For instance the "buy my little red book" line, while I could concoct a future scenario in which chinese "communism" was so debased t...

I have just noticed and the dialogue option of Divine Ascendancy to propose a non aggression pact starts talking about how Lady Pax appeared in a golden shower. I had heard some friends using that expression with another meaning and a quick search on google confirmed that this expression has some n...

In the 6th paragraph of the Compendium entry for the Solar Dynasty (starts with "His clone-son, Yun Xi, became prime minister..."), there are words that need to be switched near the end: Second-to-last sentence starts with "His also people built..." and should be "His peopl...

@richmcd Oh, I'm definitely here as a response to player feedback - and tonight's my last chance to affect the printed manual, so I'm trying to change problematic aspects in that right now (mainly timeline problems, caused by shifting backstories around to fit everyone's origins into the 21st centur...

Hi guys, Thanks for all that feedback. I'm only a part-time contributor so I only get to pop in here every now and then. This is the first game I've worked on, so this is all really helpful. I'm giving everything a final pass tonight. I can't do anything about the faction names and directions - they...

Hello there, I'm the guy writing the history / dialogue / flavour text and so on.

Just thought I'd pop in to say that if you've got any feedback, or you spot a bug, or a line doesn't make sense ( ), please post it below and I'll have a look at it.

Cheers!
Dan
