A couple of days ago, I found myself pondering a question: "if I sat down and tried to write a Storynexus game from start to finish in a single sitting, what's the worst thing that could happen?"
It turns out that the answer is this.

This game is amazing, and you should all play it. Also, I can personally guarantee that the reward for reaching Ongoing Negotiations 77 is worth it in every way.

Delightful! My only quibble is that above 8-ish, actions which change Trouble and Turmoil don't say whether it increases or decreases.

I had to end the game with a Brexit at 21, because the other options could have all ended it for me (Escalation without path of trickery, Wrath of the Legion without shiny loot, From the North with Romainer Sympathies).

I came in here expecting a pointless debate about a topic I've long since grown tired of. This is so much better. I regret permanently locking myself out though.
Also: Guile OP, plz nerf

The same happened to me at Avid Horizon: I was actually planning to turn back. And the code doesn't seem to work, I'm still Trapped. But it's kind of fitting, so maybe it's best to just leave it that way.

Thank you for making me laugh, although from the perspective of someone not in Britain I have to say you're wrong about the roads.

Once things get bad enough that everyone is screaming in terror and everything is on fire, it becomes impossible to get reliable feedback on whether things are getting better or worse.
(Given the subject matter, it's safe to assume that they're getting worse.)
