Get wrecked, you casual scum. Check this description (i.e: click "Show More") for further analysis.

Acciyn wanted me to escort a 14-year-old crown princess through matters of life and death for 7 hours. However, under my watch, Elodie not only lived but thrived. She kept the nobles in check, the peasants under control, and the invaders off her shores. Sure, the economy became rubbish with increased naval maintenance and the new queen's lack of financial knowledge, and Nova's reputation may have dipped because of the fucking kraken beneath the waves. But it's not as if Nova collapsed under the strain. The kingdom prospered within the gentle grasp of the Wizard Queen.

Dozens of people spoke to me of LLTQ's lethality and unfairness, a trend which continued in the video comments when I revealed this series yesterday. My opinion? Rubbish. My greatest complaint was that Elodie didn't know about the grand ball until it took place, but - as two commenters noted - Joslyn tells you about it when he informs Elodie of the parade. I didn't catch that part, and I swept all the text under the parade rug. That's not the game's fault.

Predictably, my viewers have informed me of numerous FUCKYOULOLNOOB events despite my encouragement to avoid doing so. Discovery is an important part of my gameplay experience, and the information you have given me will negatively impact my second playthrough of LLTQ. I derive little joy in play a game when I already know the answers, and as I now know there's no RNG behind the scenes, I could repeat all these choices and win as I already did: Without death.

- Grimith (with Save & Load): 1
- Long Live The Queen: 0

Look no further than my meticulous preparation and careful note-taking in this playthrough. My approach would have been different had LLTQ's reputation not preceded it, and I likely would have died. Comparatively, my second playthrough may also avoid death not only because of what I learned in this series but because of what I learned through you. Every contributor plays a role in shaping my hobby as it moves forward. Will your impact be for the better? We'll see.
