    I hope with the new taming skills in R23 my bear Leeroy Jenkins will finally follow my orders and not do he want.

    There was a group of folks that tried that. It didn't go well for them.

    But what would be the fun in that? Perhaps he can suddenly go chasing after a squirrel in the middle of a fight, leaving you severely outnumbered... :p There should always be some Chaotic element to taming, don't you think?

    All I know is that every month this game gets exponentially better than the last month. I don't care if it takes them 2 years to get all that stuff in...this is going to be a an awesome game.

    Really looking forward to pets in the home actually. A funny thing, but having someone/somepet home to greet me will make it feel a lot more homey :)

    Maybe those foals from the stretch goal out front :p.

    It would be nice if they let loose on limits so you can stick a ton of them in your basement, bunnies.....bunnies everywhere...

    A question that has been sitting with me - I wonder if dynamic towns gave us any advances on flexible placement where maybe we don't need to raise quite as much to have it implemented?

    Thanks for the quarterly update! I've been looking forward to this for a couple weeks now.

    There is certainly not as many "new" systems and things planned for this quarter as we've seen these past couple months... but it seems like there will be a focus on performance and polish of existing things that have been introduced. I'm really happy to hear that because making some currently good things great will start to show the true potential of this game and I believe it will draw more people to it sooner than it would if you just keep adding more good stuff that obviously needs more work. I guess my point is that it will start to feel more "complete" (and getting closer to Beta) so optimism will rise.

    I do have a 2-part question regarding the "multiple pets" feature:

    Will we be able to name our pets once this is implemented? If so, will this be shown on the summoning whistle so we can easily differentiate which is which?

    Actually, one more related question: The schedule states that we can have more than one tamed pet in inventory... are there any plans to allow us to have multiple tamed pets active at the same time? (perhaps in a future Episode?)

    Maybe Halloween content is more important than the roving encounters for the overland map. Too bad :(

    I think the Dev's have to balance keeping the testers here and making the game. No testing = no results.

    Will there be an additional field for a last name? Or are you just checking the existing name field for a space? Do you have to unlock the last name feature? I thought there was a pledge reward to get a last name earlier.

    Agriculture sounds interesting.

    I was also looking forward to roving encounters, but it's coming so I'm not too concerned.
