| Summary | 0011638: Suggestion: Change name of "Score" | ||||
| Description | It's entirely possible that this is just me, but the word "score" bothers me a little. It's kind of immersion breaking. I'm supposed to be a deity, commanding the fate of a floating island, and I'm playing for a high score? It just feels kind of odd to me. Is it possible to change the word to like "Chaos" or something like that? | ||||

I would call it "Souls". :P Your celestial master is actually a soul reaper, and requires specially prepared human souls for a healthy breakfast. Hence only kills made by red and blue factions count - their weapons and tools are imbued to harvest their victims. Town destruction carries with it extra points due to all the residents inside. Hence, the bandit are the actual heros of this game, and you a minion for a higher power. |

I think it's a bit late for something like this. People know what it is; and renaming it will cause huge temporary confusion. The press have this, and changing something like this while they are reviewing it would be disastrous. |

Call me old-fashioned, but I like the word score. Everybody knows what this means which is good for the viral effect I think as people can talk more freely or understand more freely what is meant by it. Even despite the above concerns about confusion, I would probably still stick with score, although it is not as thematic. |

I prefer score as well. It's simple, gets the point across, and can be understood by anyone looking at the game. |

How about "Soul-Score"? It's still a score but a more specific one. |
