What are the lore team's thoughts on all the emergent gameplay going on right now at Jumptown?

TL;DRThe lore team enjoys the Jumptown emergent gameplay, saying it's exciting to see players build their own stories and a drug war on top of the narrative backdrop they provide.

Oh, it's fun. I love it. I tried to find it. I think last week I crashed into a mountain. I was super close and then I crashed. But no, I think it's awesome. It's one of the most exciting things, to see people using the systems to build their stories.

Yeah, because part of it is we're providing this narrative backdrop for this stuff to happen on top of. So it's really cool to see the interplay between what we do and what the players do, and how that all comes together to create this awesome drug war.

Yeah, and it adds that little bit of extra resonance too. Everyone's going there for the WiDoW. So it deepens the connection to WiDoW as a part of the game, versus just being some random supply or commodity. It's nice to see that be able to tie back through, and to have people ganging up on both sides to make it happen.

I saw somebody selling escort services to get there: I'll be your personal bodyguard to get there. It's really fun stuff.
