I'm a bit behind on them, but I just played through the SSA.1.4 arc for the first time and I have to say "Bravo devs and everyone involved". I have a general idea of what is going to happen (Statesman dying and all) but even knowing that, I was impressed with the missions and story that goes along with it. It was engaging and fun to play through! It was one of the few times I really felt like i was part of the game and not just a side character. This needs to keep up!
Personally, I'm a programmer in real life and just seeing what was added as a possibility for future story arcs impressed the hell out of me. I know its hard to add the mission mechanics that were demonstrated with these arcs so far and not break the rest of the game.
My biggest complaint is now I have to play the rest of the game's stories without the surprises and mechanics in place like that. I know its a tall order but I would love to see some revamps of some arcs to incorporate them. The rest of the game seems really boring now. I want to see more like the SSAs!
Please dedicate a team to revamping at least some of the existing content to use some of the new mechanics and story telling stuff you've built into the new arcs. They are so much more engaging and fun to play. I know its not going to happen all at once, but a couple of the big arcs an issue can't be too hard, can it? If people like the old ones, we have ouroborus to cover that assuming its not too hard to keep them there and add new ones.
My request, though, detracts from my initial message. BRAVO! From what I've played so far the new stories have far exceeded my expectations and make me can't wait for what's next!
