Agreed with Sounsyy. You'll probably find that most players tend to lean, independently of outside sources, in one of two ways: Either they play with the "present" being "a point in time which occurs after all available quest storyline", or, "a point in time which corresponds with where the individual player happens to have seen thusfar, because said player is trying to avoid spoilers, while somehow not realizing that the internet is basically an enormous spoiler minefield". In groups, you get either the former again, or, a version of the latter which is decided upon by the group in question (such as what Sounsyy said about wanting to play out the lead-up rather than jumping to the conclusion). Time bubbles abound due to it all, which is fine, excepting those awkward moments wherein you have, say... a character who is using the former, who interacts with a character who's using the latter.
For one of them, Ala Mhigo has been freed, like, a good couple months ago. For the other, they're struggling every day as a rag-tag guerilla fighter to free it. Neither is wrong, per se, they're just technically existing in different time periods, yet they'll both show up to the same tavern night.Â
How can that be reconciled? Well, most of the time, I take the camera that's pointed at the scene, I smear a big honking gob of vaseline on the lens, and call it good.
