Howdy hey, here's part 3 from our AMA highlights!
We picked a dozen questions from the My Time series AMA on Reddit that we last hosted. We’re keeping this list short, but you can also check out our FAQ post on the AMA thread itself for answers to some other commonly asked questions!
Question from blue-cosmos:
I’m wondering if/how we can find out more about the history of the world?
We know a bit from Lucy as she teaches the kids, as well as bits and pieces from what the Portians say or the festival dialogues, however I would really like to know more and have the history of the different countries!
Answer from Yang:
It's a wild world, we have some articles posted before; If you’re interested in it, you can check and find more about it, I attached the link below:
It's a wild wild world out there
A Brief History of the Alliance of Free Cities
Answer from Dave:
To add to that:
Plenty of Sandrock history will be revealed, of course. Presently I can say that we've fleshed out the old world/age of darkness more. Many of the characters in Sandrock are from other places in the my time world and should have plenty to say about their hometowns...

Question from u/nightchoir:
This may be a bit of a broad question, but are there any Sandrock characters that you guys are particularly excited to work on? Or alternatively, are there any Sandrock characters that have become favourites amongst the staff at Pathea? 😄
Answer from Dave:
My favorite characters to write are in no particular order: Burgess, Qi, Pen, Elsie, Cooper, Yan, Grace, Unsuur, Justice;
Mengyao (the cooler writer) likes Unsuur and Qi, she says Xuzhi's (our super-awesome director’s) favorite is Fang;
General favorites around the office are Pen, Yan, Burgess, Mi-an. But we love them all
Answer from Yanwei:
Oh no! We can't say we can't pick the favorite one! The entire team has been debated this over and over again! Almost we're going to fight for this thing, and everyone gots their own favorite characters, someone likes Mi-an, because she is pretty kind and cute; someone likes Owen because he is super warm... And someone like Burgess, because he is doing hard work to protect Sandrock... So everyone gets different interests, and every character is adorable, so we like them all.

Question from u/nessire:
Will the new game, MTaS have a height slider? One of the things I noticed in MTaP is that the male player characters are shorter than some of the female NPCs. Will this be implemented either in MTaS or MTaP?
Answer from Yang (all-around helpful cool guy):
Sorry, we won't add the height option. We'll preset their heights according to their backgrounds.

Question from u/Cotton_llama:
When you change your hair colour in game, is it meant to be hair dye out of a bottle, or some sort of genetic manipulation? Wondering because any kids you have match your hair colour at the time of birth, not matter when you changed it
Answer from Yang:
Hahaha, the kids' hair colors and even skins are randomly generated, it's not about what your hair color is...that's kind of a fun part we wanted to play with. But we may have a better design or new plans to improve the experience in Sandrock.
