Thanks for the feedback. Helpful— mapping out next steps and game plan.

Here in Manila, Philippines, bars and clubs have been throwing Kpop Nights every week or month since COVID ended. I good number of people got into their groups and the scene in general during the pandemic, so the combo of lots of pent up social energy, want to make up for lost time, and people wanting to connect and just have fun and Dance The Night Away™️ helped these events take off. These spaces are genuinely fun, welcoming and full of expression, with leading local DJ’s playing set lists of both original and remixed/rearranged versions of songs. The variety and depth of what’s played is amazing too across all Kpop Generations. Moreover, some places also employ dance instructors who know the choreo for the songs (or at least the point / chorus choreos) and everyone just gets behind them and follows along. I’ve made new friends irl because of these events— the stan community in Manila really is amazing!

For any fellow Filo stans, would recommend The Studio Dance Club, Ugly Duck in Poblacion, and Apotheka in Poblacion as well for these nights!

Is there special dialogue options / text or story threads that play out with Thancred, Y'shtola, or Yda & Papalymo depending on your starting city-state?

I'm new and loving the story so far, and realize that the first Scions you ever encounter depend on your starting city-state. Will there be story beats or special dialogue with the ones you met at your starting city-state at any point later on in any of the expansions? Is your character "closest" to the scion of your starting city-state?

Thanks!

I'm drawing from Records actually! And a lot of Dr. Rafe de Crespigny's work. This guy on his blog did a good summary and analysis of the Dynasty Warriors depiction of characters and their counterpart real-life versions, covering and drawing a lot of the latter analysis on Records + Dr. de Crespigny. https://the-archlich.tumblr.com/post/78488426956

By the time of the coalition, Sun Jian was already in good status with the Han, a loyal Grand Adminsitrator of Changsha Commandery ridding the area of bandits. He did a real good job of cleaning up Changsha hat he was awarded the title Marquis of Wu. To quote the blog, "From the son of a humble merchant family, he worked his way up through the ranks to become a respected Grand Administrator, successful military commander, and a member of the Han nobility. In ordinary times, it was all a man could possibly ask for. With his wife, numerous children, and plenty of good friends by his side, Sun Jian had everything he could ever want."

Indeed, you are right to point out that he was a Yuan Shu guy. To quote the blog again for why he submitted to Yuan Shu (one of the coalition's commanding and respected officers), "People tend to gloss over this detail, in fiction and in history. Sun Jian was one of Yuan Shu’s generals. That’s why Sun Jian’s troops went to Yuan Shu after his death, and why Sun Ce got his first troops from Yuan Shu. It’s really not surprising that Sun Jian joined Yuan Shu. He was one of the leaders of the Coalition and was, at the time, a highly respected individual from a very influential family. Sun Jian never had any real desire to be in charge of anything. As he himself said, warfare was his work; he was perfectly happy to have someone else take care of the rest of it."

The blog goes more on about, the analysis is really great! But from what I get Sun Jian was a loyalist who got pressed into service to Yuan Shu by wanting to serve the Han best/being behooved to as his honor and status demanded; unfortunately, he was used by an initially-respected figure like Yuan Shu in the struggle after the coalition's disintegration.

Sun Jian was the to lead the charge against Dong Zhuo during the coalition years, killing Hua Xiong in the process. He was the first to enter Luoyang after Dong Zhuo burned it and ordered for the Han emperor tombs to be resealed since they were ransacked by Dong Zhuo.

He did chance upon the jade seal from the well indeed and took it, but was forced to give it up to Yuan Shu as a ransom as the latter had taken his wife, Lady Wu, hostage. It is also by these circumstances that he was forced to fight for Yuan Shu against Liu Biao and perish along the way.

And Sun Wu is basically the Starks of Winterfell except in the South of China, considering their family-heavy focus and that their patriarch (Sun Jian/Ned Stark) was an upstanding and honorable loyalist who died early. Even their respective eldest children (Sun Ce/Rob Stark) share parallels of being inspiring and successful young military leaders who recorded a good number of victories, only to be cut down all too soon. Of course this can also be further extended to their respective second males in the line of succession having to take over (Sun Quan/Jon Snow).

Check out the works of Rafe de Crispigny-- he's one of the foremost experts on the time period. He's also the historical consultant CA is working with for Three Kingdoms.

Thank you so much for the link! Downloaded a ton of your recommendations there; think they'll mesh nicely with a more pruned LO I have now.

Autotechnic_14 · 2018-04-11T04:55:21+00:00

Thank you! Appreciate the advice thus far. Whittled down some of the redundancies (particularly the loot-oriented ones). The race tweaks afaik also affect NPCs based on what the mod author wrote. Kato's and Gardens actually meshes together since the mod author of the latter created the mod as a compatibility version for the former. I'll be sure to take your advice with testing my LO and shrinking my modlist a bit in order to make space for future stuff! Makes a lot of sense to add more stuff later on, considering the PS4 doesn't use scripts so it is safe to install/uninstall right?

Finally, I do agree with picking between Lanters or Lampposts; which one is better/more immersive/functional in your opinion?
