Astra - This Week Poll Results

Added 2020-11-06 21:14:12 +0000 UTC

Hello Patrons,

Hope everyone is looking forward to the weekend! Just wanted to provide an update from the last couple of polls we had and how we are moving forward!

First order of business is spoilers. Based on the votes, we will not be revealing any major plot twists at all and for other content that has spoilers, there will be a spoiler warning.

Secondly, the ship name chosen is Aetos! It was a fairly close vote however Aetos edged out in the end and Aquila also seemed to have some Assassin Creed nostalgia so would be best to steer clear of that.

Lastly, for the new art style, it looks like the new version was the popular vote! With that being said, a lot of you did mention that it felt a bit too glossy/shiny, almost like it was a cartoon rather than anime. What we did is soften the colors to make it more smooth and also reduced the outline thickness. The end result is basically the best of both worlds:

That's all for now! Thank you guys for providing your feedback and helping us make Astra the best that it can be. The character arc storyboard just finished last week and we are working through missions arcs and side events (beach & hotsprings being obvious!). This weekend, we'll have a lore post so you can get a look into the world of Astra, some of the factions, and some other general tidbits and details; please look forward to it!! :^)
