The new update is great. I love that the game is reactive to your strength level now.

I found the new Qi mechanics to be a little confusing but you probably have plans for them. (Seems to me like Qi power is redundant? Before it was just a matter of spending the right amount. Now there's an additional stat to watch out for, I don't see the point. Isn't it just bloat?)

Seeing as it's difficult to tell how much qi you'll be spending, instant losses from lack of Qi are still very annoying. Maybe some kind of heavy health tax would feel fairer and help fights flow better?

Also noticed you changed Ruo's meeting scene to be more in line with his actual character too.

I didn't like that Tang Wei refers to himself as "This God" now though. It feels too distant.

Thank you anon. And no need to feel responsible, you didn't force me to say anything after all.

I'll consider what to do next, perhaps I'll use this as an opportunity to stop procrastinating (yeah, right) and work on my career instead.

Either way, I wish you luck with Aura Clash. I hope to see it completed one day.

Sorry if this disappoints you, but I'm not sure to be honest. The blatant disrespect and complete disregard they displayed has rubbed me the wrong way. 

Not to mention the attitude of the mob being enabled by the very moderators claiming CoG forums is a safe place of acceptance and understanding and all that stuff. After seeing all that hate that had built up, with even people new to the conversation jumping in to throw a couple punches, it feels more like a bandit hideout to me now. 

I don't want to be a part of something like that... I can't pretend to not be affected, it made me sick. That kind of blind trust people show to others openly supressing another group is a part of my daily life, it's so real I can't even joke about it.

However hard I look, it looks like this whole thing was just an elaborate circlejerk on their part. Despite what they claimed, it never felt like 'listening' was ever their intent. They just endlessly repeated the same things without giving back anything substantial, even resorting to obvious lies and misinformation. Not to mention the unbelieavable hypocrisy. How could I ignore all that?

Anyway, this isn't the end of the world or anything. I can just work on other stuff. Maybe I'll revive this project somewhere else, in another form.

Again, sorry everyone. I'm grateful you took the time to play the game and hope you enjoyed it at least a little.
