I do greatly appreciate your feedback, it's nice to see you actually gave me suggestions instead of being rude so I'm thankful for that. I will most likely incorporate a tournament aspect sooner than later. about pill crafting/alchemy, it's going to get a complete rework and not be as much reliant on luck and have a lot more interaction, so don't worry about that. the sect points tax I will keep but I have also added an event greatly punishing you if you go below -12 sect points. adding deadlines/story events is a great idea and I was already thinking of including them sooner than later, so rest assured they will be incorporated into the game one way or another.
