Well, it’s one thing to conquer the entry point and another to conquer the exit point.

Like, I don’t know in which direction Arc is taking the conquests.

It seems like the Café and the Church are both sort of the strongholds of each faction, so they might be added near the end of the map. But then what, are we going to do a counter clockwise loop around town, secure the exit points and then try to get to the other maps (mountains and outskirts)?

Who knows, I can’t read Arc’s mind. Last time I tried it didn’t end well…

We had been conquering the map in a nice, pleasing order, but then in the previous update we skipped over Riverview Apartments to take Old Town instead... and it just about broke me. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE, NOW! We might conquer Fine Dining, next, or the Center for Disease Research! Or Belgium! Why not Elysium!? Qo'nos? It's all up for grabs! There's no logic to it anymore!

...it seriously does bother me, though. >_<

Nyeeeh, you’re being fussy for the sake of it.

I mean, we started with Crescent Hills (EAST), then went to Hillside Development (SOUTH), next we went to Northside (fkin guess), after that The Glades (NORTH) and lastly Old Town (SOUTH).

If anything, it matches the wack-ass order we were doing things.

But it kinda doesn’t match the order of difficulty. Riverview Apartments(at a glance) is easier than The Glades. Old Town only had two battles but Ophelia was harder than the previous chars.

Hell, I’d join you in complaining if Arc goes to anywhere other than Riverside next. With it we’d have that small sector on the top half of the east side of town.

After checking the districts, we’re probably going to move south afterwards.

Then who knows what’ll happen next. Do we cross at Riverwalk or go to the outskirts?

I mean, yes, I was being fussy for the sake of it, but it was also meant as a joke. :P

...the mental turmoil was real, but still, I was just having fun with it.

You do make a good point, it almost feels like we are getting the characters (bosses) and the areas are a consequence of that, as apposed to it being the other way around like you would expect.

Like, we could get a neat little corner of the map buuuuut, the boss for a different area is cooler so we'll get that one first.

I… don’t think that’s the case. It doesn’t look like Arc is - or even planning to - give the bossgirls themselves too much of a spotlight.

It’s just that since we haven’t had the “post-conquer” content on each district that it feels like the territory is just an “on the side” thing.

And (insider knowledge from reading the announcements on discord) the next conquerable territory is in fact Riverview Apartments.

That means we’ve completed that little northern sector, west side of the river and I’m almost certain we’ll progress south from there because crossing the river right away would put us smack dab near the ELD and ORG headquarters.

It’s hard to juggle content as a game dev.
