Probably because someone accused the author of using AI because of the speed their updating. Which is very stupid. Why look a horse in a mouth.

It was pretty stupid not gonna lie. I can’t just understand some people. I hope he doesn’t make that one person affect his morale in writing

Hello everyone!
Just a status update from me. I’ve been away from writing for a little bit largely due to irl/personal life things that cropped up in the last month or two.
Firstly, I am still writing! Just slower than I care to admit. I’m in the process of finishing my undergrad degree, graduating next week, so that’s taken up a ton of my time in recent months.
Secondly, I will be hoping to get an update out in the next month or so. Once I’ve graduated, I’ll have some time on my hands to dive back into this full steam. I’ve been re-reading much of what I’ve got here so far, and I’ve already got plenty of ideas for future branches and where I want to go with the story.
Third, expect big changes to what we have here so far. I’m not the happiest with my writing quality in plenty of places, and feel I can do much better (probably due to the pace I was working for a bit there).
All this to say, thanks for all the kind words, feedback, and suggestions! I’ve been reading, lurking, making notes, and will be putting everything together very soon. Thanks for the patience everyone, see you all soon

I am really enjoying the game so far. 
. I like the variety of leadership styles you allow, the way you can alter the regiments character is good, and the writing for the battles is very impressive.
There are just a couple of things that I think would make the game even better.
1, A summary of your subordinates skills and attitudes. During the fight to stop the confederate withdrawal it would be useful to learn more about them before committing them elsewhere. It felt like most of the information about them was rather piecemeal.
2, Could we also get more of the confederate perspective? I get why there is only scene with Longstreet so far but it could help understand the overarching picture to see more from the other confederates when they think they are winning or losing.
Just a few suggestions. I will be buying and playing the game when it gets out.

That double text bug has been found before but thx for showing it again I suppose.
Just started reading last night, I haven’t fully finished the current demo yet, but I couldn’t wait to comment in this thread.
This is one of the best WIPs I’ve played in a long time. Setup and overall plot direction is super interesting, I’ve always wanted to learn more about the actual battleground and tactical strategy aspects of the american civil war. I love your writing style, the way you describe characters and their interactions is very engaging and they all feel very grounded in history yet also interesting in personality. The battlefield scenes were great, I felt that they were really immersive in showing the methodical chaos of that era’s gunpowder warfare.
Also just really great customization and choices in general, the depth and detail provided is incredible.
Maybe instead of writing all this I could’ve just expressed how good this WIP is by saying that I’m basically never able to read past more than a few pages of genderlocked-male stories on here but this one has me completely obsessed and it’s going to live rent free in my head from now

Spotted another case of text repetition
This time with Lee first explaining that they’ll attack the center because it’s weakened while their flanks are better reinforced thx to recent intelligence and then a captain reports to them almost the exact same thing and Lee acts as if he had forgot what he said prior.

Not to be taken as criticism, but there is quite a bit of text repetition in other parts of the IF as well. The pattern seems to be that the last paragraph in one part will be retyped again in the next part with similar wording. I wish I could provide photo examples, but I’m having trouble posting images for some reason, but if you go around chapter 3-4, you’ll find them.

I’ve got a question for the author: is it possible to implement a little resource management?
Like dealing with logistics and supply lines throughout our campaign, that would be really fun and add to the realism of wartime

That’s exactly what happens and I’ve posted a lot of images on the matter.
I talked to the writer in dms about it and they explained the reason:
“I work on the go, so what tends to happen is as I’m moving around, I copy+paste from my documents into my writing enviroment, and sometimes I straight up mess up lol”

I have very high hopes for this game and I really hope it gets off the ground, sometime.

I agree with many of the other comments that this game is one of a kind and truly special. It reminds me of the Sabres of Infinity trilogy in its good writing and the world it creates around you, along with lots of customization and nice ROs. I look forward to seeing it develop over time!
