Hive Queen Quest 53.5

The Hive grows. Across entire star systems you feel the chorus of your children ever expanding, ever diligent in their duties. Your mind has stretched to cover entire civilizations who are even now only beginning to even learn of your existence.

In less than three of the Union's months, you have gone from having only yourself and your thinker, to a vast swath of territory and the military force to keep it. Your technology, accelerated by your study of the natives to this region of space, has leapt exponentially beyond what your previous generation could have imagined. You cannot help but ponder on this, finding a rare moment to relax as your thinkers calculate various mundane projects to completion along the fringes of your conscious. You sit in your throne room listening to the hive around you, and you can hear the static, the meaningless waves of echos in the ever present tachyons rippling through spacetime with infinite simultaneity, rippling across reality like an ocean, carrying the thoughts of your hive across space like the neurons of a massive interstellar brain.

You watch silently as the human guests and allies interact within the chambers of your hive, fumbling about in an attempt to convey their thoughts to each other like a never ending game of charades, and you can't help but wonder how you reached this point, how you managed to go from being alone on an alien world struggling for survival to this moment, surrounded by allies both innumerable and individual, organic and synthetic.

Welcome back to a very special edition of Hive Queen Quest!

Tonight will be a special thread largely dedicated to reviewing the past events of the hive, since we've done quite a bit and it's been far too long, as well as a general discussion of the quest's overwhelming crunch. For some time I've been pondering on a method of overhauling it but such a dramatic change should not be done without tremendous amounts of player input.

Think of this as the token mid-season flashback/beach episode.

To get things started, I'll just give you guys the floor essentially and ask what you would like the quest's crunch to be focused on, and what you're all okay with me just glossing over and ignoring, as well as where you think the current system falls apart for you?

...

Say, does 'recap thread' include actually looking at pods that were already sent out to scout

IT'S BACK, PRAISE THE QUEEN.

FOR MOTHER!
HYYYYPE.

THE QUEEN IS BACK

Uh...

GraveQM did it fine in death amongst the stars quest.
Which as far as I remember did not change much from the original HQQ formula, if anything at all.
So I guess no input from me?
It's nice to see you back.

ITS BEEN SO LONG!
