In addition to implementing death animations, Will also modified our new backstab mechanics to be more in line with the results we were looking for, then worked on ensuring our Stat system properly displays in the crystal menu and properly performs clamps. We're pumped to get this into the game build once all five are completely finished.

You should concentrate on building up your writing portfolio and getting regular game writing work. We must understand (and preferably help create and document) the game as a whole: from core mechanics to level design to cinematics, and everything in between. If so, you probably want to be a game writer. And that’s valid!

Quests that do world building. Helping a NPC gets you a pet/sidekick [link] may I chime in? Funny, and builds NPC character (which they don't do much with after). Suddenly, I'm in a horror game and still it uses the mechanics from the general game. Say I need to get inside the castle. Is my only option stealth?

This helps to build the feeling of the game being cute and wholesome. A very important NPC in the game. There won’t be any huge mechanics to show in the game, but a little nice story for you to enjoy. It looks bright, colorful, and wholesome. Nothing is bad until we are taught it through our lives.

It’s the fault of developers for not exploring new kinds of stories, new kinds of worlds, new kinds of mechanics and so on. Even a handful of new mechanics or other properties are often enough to help create that question in people’s minds: “what else might be possible in this game?”
