Is there a plan to dynamically record player activities in a personal journal?asked by AragornBH

TL;DRThe hope is a running tally of players' activities tracked through mobiGlas apps, but automatically written emotional journal entries are complicated and still need experimentation.

At the basic point of it, yeah. The hope and talks going on right now is that we're going to have a running tally of all of the exciting things you've done in-game. All of the systems you've visited, all of the people you've interacted with, how many miles you've flown and all that. And the personal journal aspect of it is something we've touched on. It gets a little complicated dynamically creating emotional entries based off of content because we really want the players to have their own sense of personality. So, if the stuff that we're generating for them doesn't quite line up with how they're feeling then it might be a disconnect there so we still have to do more experimentation to figure out if something is going to be on that level. But I think probably the most exciting thing about it is that we have mobiGlas as a way to ground all of that information in lore by using the mobiGlas apps and there'll be a bunch of different ones to track all of the different sorts of information about your character. So, maybe all of the places you visit will be tracked in a travel app on your mobiGlas and stuff like that. So, theming it that way I think will help immersion a lot. For players. In Star Citizen.
