Sooooo, choices choices and yet more choices...it's like shopping at Panera.

Talk about a short story update but a ton of content to balance it out. Going to restart this light since people are still working through the public update I'm guessing.

I really love how a lot of the stuff from previous parts of the game comes into play, including investments you'd think wouldn't normally affect the battle. The choices themselves seem fairly even at each point, but if you read the dialogue there are hints about what will work best where. For example in the starting fight Simon asks the succubus how the orcs are behaving, and she basically says they're behaving themselves very well...for now. I read that as Simon guiding them would help but ultimately could be put to better use elsewhere.

We finally got to see Ivastan's pack of goons (get to call them that now since they gave us Hilstara and I doubt they have any redeeming members left.) and I have to say their fight was fun, but not overly difficult if one's done the groundwork in leveling up Nalili in particular. Wonder how many more times they'll be a thorn in Hilstara/Simon's side.

Right now I'm really curious to see how Simon can influence and support the reconstruction efforts. The Elves are a potential that is brought up in game, but I'm wondering how much the 'magic monopoly chain' we can invest in through Yhilin and Ardoheim will also affect things.

And finally...WE JUST CONQUERED OUR FIRST COUNTRY! Now we are badass! :P
