Hihi!

I've been running a different DW game and was looking at other DW titles to run. I noticed all the categories are NG+ categories since you are starting the game with all max equipment, saddles, stats, etc. I was wondering if there's been any discussion or if there is interest in including a NG Any%-type category? Since Saddles are such an important part of running, maybe an overarching Unlock All Characters% or something similar like DW5 has instead of one for each kingdom? Start with a fresh save, race to unlock all characters as fast as possible, routing in the fastest saddle pickups and unique items etc. I'd be interested in routing it if other people would be interested.

This is a very good suggestion! Unfortunately, I am not a moderator to add this or influence it in any way.
