Objective:
Introduce a weekly event that recaps the narrative discoveries from the past 7 days and provides a small teaser about upcoming story elements. This event will foster player engagement by encouraging theory crafting and discussions, keeping the community intrigued and invested in the unfolding story.
Motivation:
While many players are drawn to Illuvials for their utility in battles or their aesthetics, there is also a segment of the player base that is deeply interested in the game’s lore. Understanding the backstory and motivations of Illuvials can enhance emotional engagement and appreciation for the game. By offering a weekly event that recaps and expands on the lore, we cater to this audience and add an additional layer of depth to the gameplay experience.
Each week, the event will recap recent narrative developments, reinforcing the story for players who may have missed details or need a refresher. For example, did you listened the first Xenoprint? Or have you found all the "lore-wand thing" with some audio from Kol? Do you even know who Kol is?
At the end of the recap, a small teaser or leak about upcoming story elements will be revealed. This teaser should be intriguing enough to spark theories, yet vague enough to avoid spoiling future revelations.
Expected Impact:
Increase in player retention, particularly among those who value the narrative.
Greater community engagement through lore discussions.
Potential to attract new players who are interested in games with rich, immersive stories.
Conclusion:
This proposal aims to deepen players' emotional connection with the world of Illuvium by using narrative as a tool to strengthen community bonds and maintain ongoing interest in the game’s evolution.
