I got the same “Solo 100%” thing, too (ironically, it was immediately after I enthusiastically agreed to be part of the team). :confused:

Does anyone else imagine VERY specific character voices when they read this book? Because I do. Here’s who I hear

SHADER: “Han Solo” (Harrison Ford), Star Wars (specifically Episode IV)
CASSIUS: “Wesley” (Cary Elwes), The Princess Bride
NYX: “Tia Dalma/Calypso” (Naomie Harris), Pirates of the Caribbean 2 & 3
VANORA: “Rolanda Hooch” (Zoe Wanamaker), Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
DUNCAN: “Duncan” (Peter Renaday), Dragon Age Origins (video game)
SAREN: “Eddie Haskell” (Ken Osmond), Leave it to Beaver (TV show, 1958-'63)

The voice of my dragon varies from one playthrough to the next (I’m on my third already!), but my first and favorite was a gold named Argos (named for Odysseus’ trusty hound in Homer’s “Odyssey”) who sounded a lot like “Merlin” (Mark Strong) from the Kingsmen movies. :wink:
I don’t really hear a clear voice for Allison. I’m not sure why. :slightly_frowning_face:

Who do you hear? Please share! I’d love to know!

Hmm
 the background noise of my neighbor
my parents doing chores
my brother talking
 the carpenters working for our new furniture

I love the book however I do find the stats progression a bit to slow.

The most major increase on stats is based on character creation. Is it possible to have more events that can lead to faster stat growth.

Without spoiling, there is a reason for the stats not increasing as they would in a stereotypical CYOA.

Generally if you want a stat that is very high, you have to focus solely in that stat. Doing so should net it over 50%

*Got to say, this was a definite 9.5/10 (-0.5 for typos and coding issues) Characters felt very much alive to me with a great story and tons of foreshadowing (turns out i AM afraid of a ghost!). This game was equal parts frustrating as it was rewarding. When i won the Championship trophy, i audibly cheered!

I hated (ie. Loved) the ultimate conclusion that came of the letters to your parents.

For those that have done multiple runs, is there a change at the end if you don’t give Nyx the locket?

I love the game but the purchase didn’t proceed and now I ended up with money loss and no game until the customer service contact me back. Can’t wait to play it though!

There are times when I think the MC is an imposter
 because sometimes they call their father ‘dad’, sometimes ‘pa’, and they also sometimes call their mother ‘ma’ and ‘mother’. You know like in some murder mystery, because you called them wrong, you are not their child
 and you probably killed their child and replaced them.

I spit out my drink when I read your comment there. Just imagining Toxic evilly laughing as she writes a scene and then kills Allison off again like “oh you wanted her back that bad huh? Well here! Take it and then some more!”

One thing we were discussing when it came to Allison though is that unlike everyone else in the story, she’s not helpful with what’s to come. She can’t fight, she’s not a dragon racer, she would be dead weight and we’re on the run. Only thing she could do is argue back and forth with a present Nyx and we’d have to stop them from it. So I feel now (it took persuading from others to get me here) that even if she did live, she would have to be sent off or she would want to leave.

I did a run with and without and the only changes I saw was that one scene and then the inventory info for the necklace changed. I’m thinking it will be more important in the second book.

Big question everyone: what did you do with Nyx and Saren? And did anyone else want to just whoop Douglas’s a** for what he did to us?

Message Toxic and tell her so that when she does the edits she can check that one as well.

I never knew how much I wanted to be a dragon rider until I played this game. There have been other games released where you can ride a dragon/reptile or be a dragon, and they were fun. But this game completely delivers on the experience.

I loved how much work there is into being a dragon rider. From going to classes, competing, and training. The setting is also completely immersive. I don’t believe that there is a scene where I am just raising stats. In just one scene where a trainer is training my dragon how to swim better, I am also getting to know the universe of this game, my dragon, and teammates.

The romances were good too. I just completed Nyx. I absolutely love her.
