May as well generate some hype for the reworked Ascension title. I hope this covers as much of the basics as possible so that those wanting a “tune up” feel good enough to take on life.
The ability for advanced users to carry over their results from other alpha titles, and basically take a break from something harsher like Khan while working on other areas, just like how Genesis works carrying over the aura of previous subliminal stacks.
This would be perfect to let an extremely dense alpha program pretty much install in the background and use Genesis: Ascension for the many other benefits and carrying over the alpha aura from something like Khan, Emperor, etc.
Leadership Training
Assertiveness
Skills Enhancement
Fun and Joy Scripting (I think it would give it that chosen/team captain vibe)
Is this an official thread?
In any case, I don’t really think Ascension needs “reworked” in terms of objectives. Give it that New Status Experience, of course.
I just want it to get the least amount of upgrades possible. It’s amazing as is.
Ah @Michel is this one not already confirmed to be near completion?
Think we already had a vote on this and its confirmed to be completing its objectives but in a different way
Yeah, that’s why I wanted to start a hype thread for it. What’s in the update, hopes, wishes etc.
It would be fascinating to have the courage aspects from Genesis in the updated Ascension
I do see your point, however if it is not “reworked” then what would its purpose be in the first place?
I would assume, these days most people would start with GLM as the foundation builder and then proceed with KHAN / ASBR / Emperor / Wanted / WB etc. for further major status upgrade and levelling up.
I think the new Ascension needs to have a clear differentiator to GLM as a foundation builder. Because otherwise, right now, GLM seems to be covering almost all that is needed as a foundation builder already…
Maybe some ideas could be derived from the two keywords “Ascension” and “Genesis”:
“Ascension” →
- levelling up
- increase status, self esteem, self worth
- increase motivation, drive and ambition
- thinking big
- having higher standards than before
- setting bigger goals than before and going after them
- leaving the old setting behind
- doing something bigger and better than before
- focus on reaching a new level or the next possible level
“Genesis” →
- being reborn
- embracing life again
- reinventing yourself
- restarting a new life
- reincarnating without needing a new body lol
- saying goodbye to your old identity and personality
- a positive version of a mid life crisis
Etc.
Ascension has always been a foundational masculinity title. GLM is specifically about HEALING issues re: masculinity. So the differentiation is already built in.
I just don’t want to see Ascension turned into a much bigger title like happened with Libertine>Primal Nights (for example).
