wow...i guess i followed a totally different story arc then a lot of you...

Also, is there any chance the 24hr meditation during the tutorial will be coming back? Please

i believe you will get a clue as to her demise in the story. She will tell you what happened, and you will have to put her remains to rest. her remains will more than likely be close by (perhaps under that stone outside the gate). When you solve the mystery of her death and lay her bones to rest, the door will be opened to you.

Are you sure this is what you really mean? It sounds more like you are saying "hopefully he agrees with me and implements these changes" Just drop this already...the creators are onto a good thing. If you don't like it, go play Rune Quest or something.

ok, i see what you mean. But i think it all really comes down to personal perspective in this case. I really had no problem with the waiting period myself, and more patience have a greater reward. When i was on the 24hr meditation, I'd explore, buy more creatures, talk to people on line (when someone would actually talk that is) to find out how best to go about rituals and game/story related objectives, or I'd just log out and do something else for a while. With the storyline, since it is such an important part of the game, I think the creators had in mind a deep and intelligent world that you can just breeze through if you want, but that does kind of take away from the game. If you were to receive the same bonus rewards for "continue now" as you would with a 24hr meditation, or the 24hr meditation was completely removed altogether, I believe it would detract from the intent behind the game/story. After all, when you meditate upon a course of action, that means you are (supposedly) thinking hard on the subject to come up with the best response to the situation at hand. Hence the greater reward for deep contemplation. Why should you be rewarded as well for just "winging it"?

ok, first off - this game is in Alpha testing. You cannot play a game that isn't even in beta test yet and expect it to work just like a game you bought at the store. You are pretty much here to assist in the testing of what has been implemented so far. The story is a very important part of the game. Think of it as a "Choose your own adventure" novel. You are given a story and presented with choices. How the game progresses for you is ALL up to you and the decisions you make in story mode. The 24hr meditation period is optional. I took it an most occasions, but then I wanted higher stats and a better honor. If that isn't something you want to do, then that is up to you. I suggest that while you are in the tutorial you take the game day-by-day. Patience is a virtue. The longer you remain in tutorial mode, the longer you go without having a target painted on your forehead. my 2 cents

All-in-all I am finding the descriptions of many of the principals difficult to fully comprehend. If I had a few examples to go with I may be a bit more clear on the possible applications. This one sounds to me like this principal has the possibility to allow you to negate certain events, or by-pass them completely. Or it may allow you to "add" some event that didn't actually occur. Too many abstracts...

This is pretty much how I am taking it at the moment. I don't think I can wait 24hrs again though. I did it once and now I just do 12 before I go to work, or maybe an hour or 2 if I am home that day. Still, I find this story engrossing. The action is all well and good, but I do like a good story behind the games I play. So far I like what I have seen very much.

Hola all. New here. Just recently found the game. I like what I see. So far I am finding that choosing "Continue Now" is VERY tempting...I just want to see what is going to happen next Anyway, just sayin' Hi.
