The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) | Official Trailer

The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a lore-rich and choice-driven historical fantasy visual novel inspired by Irish mythology and Celtic folklore. Play as a tenant farmer from mid-19th century Ireland, whose path becomes inexplicably entwined in fairy affairs after getting robbed by the roadside and lured into the mythic and war-torn world of Tír na nÓg: A once unified land, now divided into the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Will you escape and return home with your stolen belongings? Or does fate have something else in mind?

Facts & Questions: The Game

🍃 The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a Kickstarter-funded project currently in development. Due to the scope of the story, we will be releasing it serially over several years to Steam and Itch.io, and discounting it while in early access. The earlier it's bought, the cheaper it will be overall, and you'll only need to buy the game once!

🍂 Not all routes are currently available! As of Nov. 1, 2024, you can play half of Shae and Maeve's routes; both approximately 50k words. If you're not sure about paying for an unfinished game, feel free to check out our free demo first. It consists of Vol. 1, Book of the Traveller (the pre-route content). Differences between the demo's Vol. 1 and the paid game's Vol. 1 are marginal following our August 1, 2024 re-release of the demo.

🍃 Due to its setting, The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) will occasionally feature instances of characters speaking in Gaeilge, i.e. the Irish language. All instances of Gaeilge are linked to an internal translation tool, which is voiced by Nigel McKeon, a Gaeilgeoir.

🍂 The main character is yours to shape. At minimum, you must choose a nickname, pronouns, and one of four default appearances, the last of which can be your own artwork (instructions are included in the game's files). You may also choose to discard the True Name…

🍃 All routes, both current and upcoming, will have both romantic and platonic choice options. If you're uninterested in romance, feel free to make friends instead! No matter the nature of your relationship, you will still be able to reach the good end. Or the bad one.

🍂 Our cast consists of two men, two women, and two non-binary characters. All are romancable no matter the MC, but some characters are asexual or on the aromantic spectrum, which may impact aspects of their romances.

🍃 If you are a Mac user and are having issues launching the game via the Itch direct download, refer to this guide for troubleshooting before sending us an ask. We strongly recommend purchasing the game through Steam instead of Itch if you are a Mac user; it is the best way to avoid issues with launching the game.

🍂 NDM is very intentionally set just prior to the onset of the Great Famine, which is both thematically and textually relevant to the leftist, anti-imperialist story we're aiming to tell. If you would like more insight into this, refer to this post.

🍃 There are secrets to be found in this game, with more yet to come. Prepare yourself for a lot of horse related shenanigans. 🐎

Flannan propaganda:

"boobies out. troubled man riddled with emotional baggage. has doggies that he loves. what more do u need to even say........"

Fenris propaganda:

“Broody hot elf with glowing tattoos and a sultry voice that escaped from his former slaver and joins your ragtag team of misfits that save the city. He is snarky with your companions and always so surprised to be loved and supported. Everytime I play and try to romance someone else I fail because I can't not flirt with him.”

i knew cheritz were shitty since V route, they hated him but still wanted V stans money, it became blatant in his ae, but it was in his route too, and they keeping getting worse and people keep being like "omg how dare you to be mean to poor cheritz"

yeah i think it's time to let cheritz go into that good night lmfao

[reluctantrfamember]

Just feels wrong that Jumin would have a half brother all this time and never mention him. I don't care what his dumbass mom does. He would be there for him. It's Jumin.

[reluctantrfamember]

I have not played the ssum but the second hand updates from the tags are ending me. Cheritz what are you doing baby

[reluctantrfamember]

can cheritz stop retconning mysmes canon? it's not going to make me redownload the ssum.

[reluctantrfamember]

It’s crazy that 3.5 years later, I found myself reading your Mystic Messenger fic again - and that an update for it happened in May of this year. I feel like a different person now but part of me is still in this, I guess. But so are you. So, it’s cool to think we always have a little place to come back to. Nostalgia and love for what feels longer than 3 years ago. So, in honor of that I’ll say - I can’t wait for the update. Hope life is treating you well.

🥹 Aw, thank you. Always makes me happy when i hear folks still check back on my fic!!! Ultimately I'm just too stubborn to let that particular brain worm go gentle into that good night, so i try to at least turn out one update a year 😂 between my day job and professional writing projects, i don't have much time to dedicate to it otherwise, but i WILL finish................. just might take a hot sec lmfao anyway, thank you for still reading!

[reluctantrfamember]

I don't remember if you played obe yme but they're releasing a new game apparantly thats like supposed to have their prequel story??? Its weird and whatever love I had for the main game just kinda dwindled (ive read the entire story so far and while its not the best I had some fun) like I can't find an ounce of excitement for this actually cause I just don't see the point of it? 🤨 other than money

I did play obey me for a little bit but i got bored lol i knew the story was never going to be that serious, but it was such a pain in the ass having to constantly level up for those monotonous dance off games, and at the end of the day most of the event stories were about as substantive as the main plot lmfao i haven't heard anything about the prequel though, but that seems kinda weird for the kind of game obey me was/is. But yeah, obey me and probably any other game that company produces is going to be primarily focused on making money. Mobile otome is just kinda like that, sadly. I'd recommend getting into indie visual novels / otome if you're looking for creators who make games for the passion of storytelling, bc 99% of indie devs are not turning a profit 😂

Ive like, passed day 100 with teo and while not actually a lot of references to MM i still roll my eyes whenever i see the smallest mention of it. Cherit(zand fans) let go of MM challenge 🙄 harrys route released filled with bugs ofc :) people have claimed his route is better (though more expensive) but i havent gotten as far so i cant say yet, he seems more fun though. (People have ofc, compared him to jumn) Honestly i just wish the app could stand on its own without having mm dribbled into it every month. Like i dont want them to share universe you feel me?

oops another old ask rip hope it wasnt too old

anyway yeah that's understandable. And it doesn't speak much to cheritz's confidence in their own product. For a game as large as the ssum is i hear remarkably little about it. Imo i think cheritz really jumped the gun trying to make lightning strike twice but without rly understanding why people got so invested in mysmes. The real time mechanic was a huge part of it but if the pacing was slowed out by a YEAR like ima be real i dont think anyone wouldve had the patience.

yeah idk how ive turned out four chapters this year either

[reluctantrfamember]

Soo… been hearing the SSum is mediocre, ok, not really worth the hype. :/ Kind of sad because I’ll admit it did look promising from what I saw in the trailer.

Yeah I played the demo a few years back and then played the first like 5 days of the official game and it's, just, kinda boring ngl. Plus all the micro transaction-blocked stuff was disappointing to see. CGs are blocked, a lot of dialogue options are blocked, you can't see Teo's social media stuff without subscribing some ludicrous amount a month... not great, folks. Especially since (at least from what I've seen) the story is kinda meandering.

[reluctantrfamember]

Been playing the ssum and yeah its fine, im enjoying it enough so far. But one things for sure I am staying away from any of the topics that mention mm, not a lot of critical thinking there ive noticed. (Do wish the planets werent filled w mm all the time tho but i hardly use them anyway)

rip just seeing this now jgddjg

I do periodically look at the ssum tags to check out the vibe but from what i can tell it's remained very slice of life with like a billion mysmes references to keep old fans hooked. Kind of sad tbh like this was clearly a massive investment but cheritz still feels the need to shoehorn mysmes in there. Makes me wonder how much the sporadic mysmes stuff is carrying the game for some folks :")
