My ideas inspired by the BC demo: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zGoPs_dkbIWhat if instead of RTS gameplay like Spore's tribal stage the Awakening stage was a third-person action adventur game? The RTS genre doesn't translate well into Paleolithic hunter-gatherers, because there isn't a central government. Instead what if the game was a tribe with specialized character classes (crafter, builder, archer, clubber, etc). The player could swap between characters, and order characters to do different things (wait, attack, follow, etc) akin to Oddworld's newspeak: www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1Cnj-hPPe8The goal of the Awakening Stage would still be to form a society center, leading to the Society Stage, which would be a RTS-themed stage.

Interesting. Instead of directly forming a society center, one could have to form something like a guild or a political party, or establish a family or something. RTS elements would become locked or unlocked as you lose or gain followers or influence, until a certain threshold is achieved and you transition into the Society stage.

That is the goal :v
The whole point of the awakening stage is to form the society center. The plan (hopefully) is to allow the player to transition from first person, to third person views during the aware and awakening stages.
However, I think the way it's gonna work is RTS mode is unlocked when you develop a sort of pack mentality or even form a hive mind. It won't be restricted to building a society center
