And I think that is questionable advice as it keeps the situation static and passive. I mean sure, there are several areas of the game I don't like. I think I like the idea of the game, but I don't like several aspects of the execution. And frankly, some of these thinks I believe to be just objectively dodgy design, as they incentivise gameplay that goes against the stated intended feel of the game.Yes, heat has more teeth, but it still is not something that drives the fiction at the moment.Like I don't understand how this is so hard or controversial: a consequence creating an interesting plot twist or an event the players have to react right now creates more engaging and dynamic gameplay than some tick on some gauge that might or might not matter later. Do people genuinely disagree with this? <img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="😵‍💫" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f635-1f4ab.png" title="Face with spiral eyes    :face_with_spiral_eyes:" data-shortname=":face_with_spiral_eyes:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" /></blockquote>
