”Absolutely delightful”

Ulkas chuckled happily, elated by transformation he had witnessed and that it caused the enemy to come to them by itself, saving both time and hassle of tracking it down.

”As it can’t wait anymore, I’d be happy to oblige. Let’s test it’s limits, shall we?

Prepare the battlefield to our advantage. Illusions worked well even against the Mad Core. Shatterers, too. Mind Field and logic traps should work as well, but those would wait for a confrontation start - no need to alert the enemy before it could commit itself.

All good, if you leave the traits and skills as is I will design something for them.

"Let's try our luck with the magic draining array... something like that nexus probably needs quite a lot of magic energy to work. Maybe that's what it's powering?"

I might regret it later, but let's risk it. Hopefully it'd be less defended as well.

Small bump, next update scheduled for Friday! I wasn't able to work on it the past few days due to work.

[Legendary Marksdorf]

Any ETA on the next update ? It's fine if there isn't, would just be good to know you're still here haha

[Nakéen]

Big oops, I really didn't see time fly. ETA kn the update is 24h-48h. I will take a break from my duties to work on the turn.

[Legendary Marksdorf]

No problem, just nice to be in the know ! See you next update

[Nakéen]

I need one more day, one moooore. But I'm not dead hah!

[Legendary Marksdorf]

Yeah as long as u keep us updated on the process it's fine if it takes a long time. I understand this kind of game needs a loooot of work to run and you have obligations in real life so no stress

[Nakéen]

Nearly one month! Arrgh. I'm working on the turn. It's gonna come out hot in a day at most.

[Legendary Marksdorf]

Let's gooo!! Happy to see you

[Nakéen]

Hello everyone, months have flown, once again. It feels very much like deja-vu yes?...

Anyway to the matter at hands. I am doing well, but I am unable to feasibly resume GM'ing and I don't want to keep you hanging and in the dark again and again. This situation is unfeasible and unfair, and the more I disappear, the more I can see myself losing touch with the game and the world we have crafted. It's an agonizing feeling, and I can only see this spiraling into a cold entropic end.

So here you have it: after giving it a lot, a looot of thought, I have taken the difficult decision to formally declare the end of this iteration of You are a Monster RTD.

But personally, I don't want to give up on this all. After all I wouldn't be coming back everytime to update this sporadically if I weren't a bit stubborn. But with the many years spent playing this RTD with you all long-time or occasional players, this time I feel that the decision should not be taken by me alone.

So here is the plan if you are on board.

1) After putting the game officially to a long-deserved rest, I want to reconnect with the essence of the game with you all and use it to prepare a reboot. To discuss the bad and the good, the big or little things we enjoyed in this game, all of that without being overly specific. I don't want to miss a thing if possible.

2) I then intend to process these exchanges to craft a reboot of the game. It will be a test of diligence on my part, and I will have to keep you regularly updated on the process.

That's about it. I'm looking forward to see what you think, and I can't thank you enough for putting up with me all these years.
It's always a blast playing with you all.

[Legendary Marksdorf]

Damn, didn't expect you to come back this time, it had been really really long lol (almost a whole year!!). I'm glad to see you're still doing well !
As for what to improve in the game, I honestly couldn't tell you; always had a fantastic time playing this RTD. If I had to say one thing, maybe pace yourself and don't allow the player list to grow so big because then updates become really hard to make and maybe that played a role in you disappearing so often... In the end, it's your call though.
Anyways, I also had a real blast playing your game Nakéen; thank you so much for putting the time and effort you did into it despite being (very obviously) quite a busy person lol

[Nakéen]

Thanks Marksdorf, and the others who pm'ed me! The replies I received made me really glad.

And yes, the player list will have to be limited, that's a given and if I go against it... well do give me a wake-up call haha.
