I think it would be great if a timeline could be implemented. I’m also a fan of historical games like CK2, EU4, HOI, etc. and I wish that there would also be a specific date when a game starts.
Ideas:
1. Specific game start date.
2. Optional Historical Eras (game start date) – Medieval, Modern, Current and the Future. The idea of time travel would be awesome, too.
3. Optional Gradual Era Progression – so you can choose whether you’d like to stay in a medieval setting or gradually progress through the eras as time goes by.
4. Optional Recordable Timeline – so you can remember what date your character was created, what date it graduated from the university, what date it got married, it had a child and it died. Kind of like a personal/family/clan diary/record or whatever appropriate it can be called.+2 -
This seems like a cool idea (I’m also a fan of grand strategy games, especially of Eu4 and Ck2) but it’s too complex for the base game and strays too much from the core of the life simulation genre. Instead, these features could be added into a new expansion pack (a la The Sims 3: Into the Future, but you can go to the past too)
EDIT: The recordable timeline feature sounds especially cool, maybe it could be represented in a family scrapbook/record book or something. Now that I think of it, Paras should have memories…
