The gameplay hasn't really "changed" much at all since its first release, it just keeps getting deeper and deeper (something something z-axis joke), so I don't really understand this complaint. It's the best interactive lore generator ever conceived and this release only adds to that.
"- I can write `foo.bar baz, bat` but if I call it with no arguments I have to use parens. `for.bar` will just return the function. I understand why it's the case, but it sucks."
Interestingly, if you write "do foo.bar" you don't need to use parens and it will work as expected. I think this is a bit more idiomatic.
From the link: "In a couple of weeks, once we've ironed some bugs, smoothed some edges, and given those people a chance to try Ghost out... we'll be opening up Ghost to the public. The Github repository will go public, and everyone will be able to sign up for an account on Ghost.org."
