Hi Michael,
Agreed, but I feel as though I have got myself between a rock and a hard
place. There is several people saying the game is to boring as is with
items always in the same location. They want random monsters etc.
Then, we have the other half says don't change anything. Please, don't
change that.
I'm feeling a bit frustrated as which way to go. My deal with James was
I could have the sales income from all future sales, and since there is
a large number of people already on pre-order status I have to make the
game sellable to the users that did not pre-order in order to make
something off of it.
I guess the question is does it really matter if there is always a skull
in the basement room with the red key. What about going down and finding
a snake or a spider, or no monster.
Then, when you get the red door open it out comes a skull or two. It is
different enough to capture the attention of some of those who want
random variables.
