Ordering

I’m not sold on alphabetical order of individuals I think we should order them within there’s groups either mirroring the layout in the menu or by how we find their clues and reveal them. I also think the clues should come before the biographies and maybe left align the flavor text rather than center? Lacrossedeamon (talk) 15:41, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

I'm also not keen on the current ordering but the issue of the ordering is, for example the cultists from the Silver Vein and Worshippers of the Bloodline. Both of these braches have their layout being "A links to B who links to C, D links to E who links to C and C links to the sage". The clue stuff also has the issue of some of them being killable without finding clues, for example, I killed Melite from the Worshippers of the Bloodline (the C in the example) while exploring Krete, with no warning. Just like, "huh, this enemy is a bit harder than the others."

I will push back on the order of clues-bio however, it would be fine if they had the same amount of clues, but comparing Aspasia and Deimos for sake of example that's 6 to 1. In bio-clues, the bios are set and then you have any amount of clues following. In clues-bio, the placement of the bio would be "jumping" from place to place. Besides that, the target menu has the bio be on top of the clues.

On the alignment, do you mean all text or only the description for the clues? - Soranin (talk) 18:35, 21 December 2020 (UTC)

Format of content

Before I edit more I guess what needs to be discussed is how closely we copy the formatting of the information on the actual menu page and its diegetic nature. For the Kassandra session we use "clue" and "interpretation" while the menu uses "related item" and "clue" respectively; there is no "obtained" field so I'm wondering if we should move that to just the bottom of the text in a parenthetical like with the Altair Codex. The Bio section replaces Clues which to me means it should come after not before. There is also a rewards section for what you get when you kill them. The targets also speak a quote when revealed. If not all, how much of this information should we concern ourselves with and how should we portray it? Lacrossedeamon (talk) 07:39, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
