    To me most of the questions were never answered or the no comment yet on companions....we did get a brief update on henchmen possibly being available. This is the first concrete answer on them however.

    out of interest, with the rent and decay in game what is your idea of the number of houses people will have in game?

    Are you going to aim it so you are only likely to have 1-2 houses in game or is it likely we could afford to buy a house in every town?

    If you play the game long enough not sure why there would be a limit to how many houses since the sandbox underpinnings will be there for you

    buying and selling things with other players through the vendor system, dynamic world state changes, lots of constant content updates (we hope to continue monthly releases even after launch / in between episodes), etc.

    Awesome update! If the offline mode is as good, as deep, as it sounds like its shaping up to be, you all might not even see me online. :)

    No it will depend on complexity/scope because the updates will have to include more complete systems/content. Currently we release system and content in a very iterative fashion, before they are complete. This means that post launch some content will take 2-3 months to complete while some will still be only 1 month.

    This reminds me to ask a question, when will you publish this information for all?

    Maybe for the monthly releases that get missed, due to the extra time needed, a timeline could be provided in advance for the community leaders to have extra events scheduled then? could help fill the gaps so people don't get bored. knowing the community as i do right now, i'm pretty much certain we'd step it up a notch in those times. :)

    Oh! I have a question!

    Right now the NPC world feels kinda empty and lifeless (sorry but it does). Will we see children and the lives of NPCs change as the game progresses? I don't necessarily mean schedules: I mean maybe some NPCs get engaged, get married, you know...small/big life stuff.

    Wait, I just wasted my question.

    Whoops.
