GilesHabibula: But in this case, knowing so little about the finished game, even if there would be a "deactivate timer" mod available, I think I will instead try the game as intended first.

In the past with other games, I was sometimes pleasantly surprised with "features" I totally didn't think I would like.

There must be a good reason it was designed this way, so I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, and try it the way the designers intended it first. I'll put some trust in their expertise before I go with my gut reaction, because my gut reaction tends to be totally out of context with regard to the game itself, as my gut really knows nothing about how the game was created, and how everything fits together.

meinterra: You are, of course, absolutely right. I should've worded that better, as in I'd like to have the option to disable the timer, as it sounds like the generational aspect is a fairly major one.

(Good luck, devs!)

Lionbum: The generation stuff is quite a while off yet, as we are building the game from Prologue forwards and getting a lot of the tools and setup ready first.
There should easily be enough time to do what you need to do. I personally can't see the point in disabling time, as that's what the whole game is about really.
I think that a mod that does that will appear, but we won't be adding such a feature to the game (and we are all for modding btw).

bhrigu: It is really nice to see the devs interacting in the forum
Also you can ask the GOG staff to give your accounts developer specific Orange text.

I would like to tell you that the game looks beautiful and you should take your time before releasing the final version.
And I hope the game will have a well developed story.
