    Back in November 2016, I asked Lord British how a new player would know they were on a path, let alone WHICH path or what a virtue path was. What little questing I had done after Persistence, I couldn’t tell. If I hadn’t been an Ultima player, I would have no idea what the virtues were.

    LB said that was a very good point and they would be looking at that.

    So I reset my quests last week and after our successful release this week, I began my journey. I got a message in my journal to see Arabella in one of three cities. I chose Soltown.

    I know there is a bug where the chat window while talking to NPCs closes a lot during the conversation. But I persisted and she eventually gave me three separate quests to work on.

    In my journal, there is absolutely no way I can tell that any of these three quests belong to a path or which path. I asked friends to find out which was which because I wanted to make sure I wasn’t doing quests on multiple paths. Plus I heard that one path (Love) was the hardest and I wanted to save that one for last to give myself time to get my skills up for the task (no pun intended).

    Is this going to be addressed?

    For one, I think when you complete the outskirts area for each path, you get the truth/love/courage banner. (I know that's true for Love and Truth, don't recall for Courage, but I have the banner and haven't really gone questing for them, so I must have gotten it on the courage path.)

    That’s kind of my point. I got the banner for courage which is cool. But unless Arabella told me when I initially talked to her which virtue was attached to which initial quest, I have no idea. And since we’re given three quests from her, how would I know they are three different paths to follow? I asked friends to find out which path was which so I could keep my journal straight but how would a new player know to do that? I’ve heard via the forums that your journal is a hot mess if you work on all paths at the same time.
