Actually, it seems that ‘hobbit’ was an original invention of Tolkien’s, with ‘holbytla’ later invented as the fictional Old English translation of Rohirric ‘KĂ»d-dĂ»kan’ (hole-dweller), then supposedly morphing into ‘hobbit’ later on. Or at least, so says tolkiengateway.net.

This might be getting a bit off-topic, though.

Update: I know I said I was working toward a NY release, but I haven’t been as productive as I would have hoped, so still a while to go yet. Sorry!

Nothing to apologize for, you don’t owe anyone this game. We should thank you for making it at all, and besides you’re probably the fastest-releasing game developer on this platform anyway.

Still, it was quite nice!

My man, CoG hasn’t even published R2 yet. Enjoy yourself a bit. Relax. Drive a car into a department store. Punch a nazi. You deserve it.

6 Likes

Maybe not that as some very nice people are named Nazi and they have genuinely appealed not to punch them.

Very true. NazĂ­ Paikidze seems perfectly lovely, for one.

Everything María says and does makes me loathe her more. It’s quite astounding, when you think of it, especially because she set the starting line at “nazi collaborator”.

People’s opinions on Maria are really polarizing and divided XD
My MC is marrying her so I’ve loved her character more and more throughout the books

I don’t know if it’s a stretch to say that she’s the most popular major character, honestly. It’s a tight race between her and Esme for me.

Cleo was the most popular romance in the last game by far. I don’t know if Maria will surpass get when the second game is released.

It’s cleo or Maria for me. I like Esme as a fascinating character and Friend but not really a RO,
Mc almost feels like a third wheel or tag along in Esme and Abdul’s relationship.
Which is understandable to some extent.

Probably will, especially because she’s a RO now. Enemies to lovers is popular for a reason.

Which is why they were the least popular romance in the first game

The problem is the choice to unlock her romance. Not everyone will be on board to give up everything for her.

Well , yeah both Esme and Abdul are great friends , but they are not really monogamous and Esme will always prefer Abdul over mc.
So not romance material.

4 Likes

Maybe, but the way most people were talking on the forum and the Tumblr they probably won’t care about winning. To be fair only reason Cleo was popular was because the only other female RO was Esme who isn’t monogamous.

Second game will also give us the Amazonian as an RO!

This comment has caused me to enter an existential crisis.

On one hand, she reminds me, personalized wise of my irl bestie

On the other, Maria was a collabo, and my hatred for collabos (and their sympathers know no bounds)

And yet I rather like the character. So
 :?
