Of course, the best laid plans of Chronicles and Kingdoms often go astray, and despite a successful Kickstarter campaign, and a subsequent funding campaign combined totaling over 8 million dollars, Soulbound Studios could not deliver on the initial visions of the project. Jeromy Walsh CEO Soulbound Studios, Chronicles of Elyria Transparency builds confidence and makes supporting the project safer for backers.” “Just as we provide design treatments, pitches, proposals, and planning documents to the publishers, it’s the developer’s job to be transparent with the backers. The premise of going dark was almost as worrying as Walsh suspending development, as early on in Chronicles of Elyria’s development, Walsh seemed to brandish an understanding that crowdfunding was risky, and that transparency was key to keep players invested: The near-weekly updates to development are a stark change from the approximately 7-month information hiatus Soulbound Studios went on from April 2020, to December 2020 on the official Kickstarter page, and the official Chronicles of Elyria blog. Walsh plans for more updates related to KOE next week, as a potential alpha test looms somewhere in the distance. Traits, Gossip and Zoning are three additional advancements that will further the relationship that your NPC’s have towards you, and define how, and in the case of zoning - where, you interact with your kingdom in the future.
On the second part of Milestone 2, Soulbound plans to delve into NPC personalities, which will provide some advanced functionality to their survival “instincts”. The system will purportedly also provide an underlying drive to the NPC’s so that they manage their own goals such as surviving autonomously so that players don’t have to micromanage these features. The system means to make engaging with NPC’s possible, allowing players to have NPC's gather and build on their behalf. The implementation of Contracts for Kingdoms of Elyria will be an adapted application of the Contract system that was built for Chronicles of Elyria, adjusted to fit the new style for Kingdoms. In the Milestone 2 Preview, Walsh expands on the features that were outlined in Kingdom of Elyria’s roadmap that was provided by the team back in February of 2021.
