Do you ever feel stressed or unsure about how you write your story? Like, feeling like you’re just making things up and not being sure if it’s any good? (Cause writer feelings have got me down. I was wondering if it ever got to you, especially since so many people think well of your w...

Spoilers for the end of the alpha - on the endings where the puppet is the one caught in the crash, Ortega calls you from the hospital and asks to see you. I don't know if I totally misread this scene, but it didn't feel like there was any ulterior motive for this, they just wa...

When did I start feeling this old? Not past forty yet; anything below can be ignored. Joints ached worse when I did climbing. Nothing a few painkillers can't fix. Maybe I should do that. Go for a climb. Leave the city. Breathe some fresh air. Yeah, right, do that and realize I'm heavier than I us...

Has Daniel ever flirted with villains on the job? Are there any villains in LD that he wouldn't kick out of bed? Since he's been a bit pearl-clutchy about Argent kissing Sidestep's helmet: how does he react when the press pairs him up with villains for publicity stunts?

Could Shroud eat Ortega’s mind?

That is actually spoilers I won't be talking about for reasons.
Excluding boosting, what makes for a tasty mind in Shroud's eyes...

During the Moray Eel memory, does HG get glimpses of Step's own tank memories since they've dived too deep and are seemingly losing control until HG saves them?
It is a mutual feedback loop, yes. HG definitely saw some stuff.

Happy midsummer everybody, I am within inches of opening the beta testing, but until then, have fun asking me any questions about game, process or world.
Now I am off to have a nice midsummer weekend, hottest one in 50 years, so I expect to be melting. Hope everybody is keeping safe.

When you tell Steel about HB being an experiment, he replies "huh, that's interesting", as if "your words triggered something inside him". You also tell him about medical equipment being attached to HB right before Steel replies that. What does he find interesting here? Did Ste...

This is all I could find. No video, just transcripts, and I suspect they are manipulated. Especially the Charge one. If you read it carefully, you can see how jarring and disjointed it is, as if several parts had been cut away and the...

How would Ortega react to a romanced!Step that loves them, but are neutral about their good looks? Like a ‘yeah, they exist’ mindset instead of a ‘they’re pretty attractive’ one.

Why does Steel still continue/pursue a (false) romantic relationship with Step when he knows they’re manipulating him?
Does he know? Or does he deep down hope that the feelings might be real? Maybe real enough to pull Sidestep back from the brink? Is he maybe a romantic a...

I was thinking we'd switch it up a little this time around and see if you have any suggestions of what you might like more lore on? I am curious, and any suggestions I don't use might be added to future polls if I don't judge them as too spoilery. So make your suggestions!
