Re: Definition 

Based on the character development system, I don't think it's too tough to get the basic idea :P

I just wonder if it'll end up playing almost like the Lost Vikings, where you switch between character "modes" frequently simply depending on what the specific area of the game throws at you. I wonder if all of your character's "saves" will level up and advance at the same time, or only the specific one you're using?

Re: Definition 

i would say just the one you are using.... if not that would get people to the end game a lot quicker and most dev teams try to avoid that

RE: Definition 

I have a good idea of how the Tabula Rasa name applies to this game, I may be wrong but here goes...

Reading the backstory (introduction) the information it gives defines the meaning of Tabula Rasa at least to me.

Earth is pretty much wasted thanks to the "Bane"... clean slate as applies to starting human civilization over again, and future control of the cosmos to keep all civilizations safe and a chance to grow and flourish without the Bane.

I must be honest here to... although it's called Tabula Rasa I keep hearing in my head Tabula Rising. lol (embarassed)
