I have been playing the browser game regularly for about six months now (started playing seriously back in April), and I feel like I have explored a good amount of content in that time. In spite of that, I feel like I have been missing out on a lot of the background lore, as it's presented in the game. I have played Sunless Sea, and checked out saint-arthur, but I'd rather learn about the story through the browser game. I was hoping the community could point me in the right direction for what stories are linked to specific topics. I am open to buying Fate-locked content.
(If anything here can be considered spoilers, they would be located below)
Here is a rough summary of my primary character's progress -
Watchful and Dangerous - I am reaching the end of the Jack of Smiles Case
Persuasive - I am known at the Foreign Office, and have served several successful terms in Port Carnelian
Shadowy - I am nearing the end of the Affair of the Box (I think)
Heart's Desire - Almost at the limit I believe, I'm about to go somewhere the Urchins told me about.
Notable Fate-locked stories I've tried out (and enjoyed) - Flute Street, Theological Husbandry, the first three Exceptional Friends stories (the Marsh House, the Cats, and the one about July as I recall).
I also have two alternates that I made specifically for playing Nemesis and Light Fingers, but they're not very far along yet.
Some lore topics I'm interested in learning more about -
- The true nature of the Bazaar, it's history, what it's doing in the Neath, it's relationship to the Masters, etc.
- The Masters themselves, their individual personalities, their plans, and so on. I'm guessing the end of the Box storyline will reward me with some juicy bits here.
- All things related to dreams, Parabola, and those that dwell behind mirrors.
- Snuffers. I'm pretty sure I remember the Plaster Face story involving these, and I stopped playing that one so I could grind Secluded Addresses.
- The Revolutionaries, the Liberation of the Night, and the Calendar Council.
- Anything to do with the cavern roof, and the things that live there (or might live there).
Any suggestions for learning more about these in the game would be much appreciated. Just to reiterate, I actually know a fair bit of backstory already, I just want to experience it in the way that the writers of Fallen London meant.
