                            I'm responding to stuff from like, January here, but I don't get on Soapbox all that much so its just how its gonna be.

                            I am a 'casual' player on Arx. I play in spurts like, maybe one weekend I play for hours both days but then don't log in all the next week because rl is being intense, and rinse repeat. I am unreliable! Also my character is also mostly social.

                            That said, I'm super entertained when I do play. Maybe I am just easygoing, but I find things to do, even Metaplot things. I've also missed stuff, including a +crisis that was specifically about my characters house that I was not around at the time to respond to. Ooopsie! But hey they did a round two and I responded to that, and it turned out highly entertaining.

                            I don't know how to summarize this because I don't even know what my thesis was. Arx can be fun even if you don't get on much so long as you can be chill about it? That!

                                The metaplot secrets on Pugmire would probably be really, really cute.

                                    Thread necromancy, but I am suitably impressed, so:

                                    I really like the depth of the plot on Arx. There's stuff to do on the surface, but once you get into investigations and @clues, there is so much lore to be discovered. Crazy amounts of it.

                                    The code is definitely a pain in the ass, but I have also found that people are quite friendly (in general, and also in helping people with the codey aspects).

                                    Anyway, what I'm getting at is if you're put off by the code (as I was), it's worth poking into anyway.

                                      I'm not above anyone humming loudly and pretending the code doesn't exist either if that's not their jam, but hopefully I can keep trying to get it more intuitive and friendly as time goes on.

                                      some fucking idiot who people only like because he's good at taking credit for the work of everyone under him, just like every other fucking L&L headwiz.

                                        I don't know if this is true for anyone else, but the biggest issue I had was trying to get retainers to work as helpers on investigations. The code there was...awkward, I guess? Everything else worked pretty well once I actually understood how it was supposed to work--support tasks took a long time for me to grasp, for example.

                                          I got annoyed at @investigate and @helpinvestigate being two different things yesterday, but at least now I know they're two different commands. 😛
