In the early version with the combat temple there was some sort of fake chat window where people were talking to eachother and challenging you to battles. One of the fake people was a little girl. (supposedly) It was all very contrived and creepy. It was really bad. You just wondered what was going on in their mind when they did it. Ok you can read conversations here: godus.gamepedia.com/Mount_of_the_Gods_lobby_dialogueAn example: x AmY x I've got time for a battle before my dad gets home. Seriously? WTF. Keep in mind this is a 13 year old girl and I'm 34. Heres another gem: B.Plimmer Funny that she always leaves when her dad appears. Dan84 She's probably not allowed to play online. B.Plimmer She's 16. Seems too old for that. That's been sanitized. The creepiest bits have been edited out. That is missing the "popped cherry" interaction that started the worst of the discussion before it was changed. I'm trying but haven't been able to find the original "creepy version". |

They changed the chat talk to the crap about the cat in the October push. |

Today's dev update shows further work is being done to 'story mode' (which is presently only in the opt-in branch so these changes aren't necessary for quality reasons). This includes proofreading, applying additional language translations and investigating the possibility of a voice-over. Can we take this to mean that 22Cans is determined to plough ahead with this highly unpopular implementation of so-called story mode? If so, I anticipate we'll be watching another PM Apology video in 6 months time when this hits the main branch, in which he says he could not possibly have predicted that players would not have regarded this cop-out as actually being an acceptable delivery of the promised 'story mode'.

He may have the transcript of it. |

Yeah, 1.3 came out after the backlash about the creepy text and they reworked it. The wiki only has the revised chat. Someone has to have the transcripts somewhere. |

Of course - thats their standard MO isn't it? Ignore the backlash thinking they know better and then blame us as being bullies when we say its crap. In the last video Peter was all "whats really missing from Godus is a story" - yup this is considered a story that will make the game feel complete? My mind boggles at the thinking. I'd be more impressed if they just threw in the towel. Its almost embarrassing watching it  Konrad - I've said it before, I admire your passion - but really, I'd get out before your name becomes tarnished with Peter's crap.  The game will never be salvageable with the current directors of 22Cans. |

hey, I code better than I design. As I'm relatively new to these boards, you must excuse me for not knowing everyone's roles. I'm curious if you could answer me this, when Godus was original in full production, after the kickstarter had just ended, what was the max number of coders working on the game at one time. I think the max ever was 7, the common count was 5 game programmers during the main body of work. |

Is the story currently not in the main branch, or is there a known issue with it not appearing? I realized, while reviewing my playthrough from the other day, that I never encountered the story at all.
