Summary0029101: The Brain harvesting contemplation should remind the player that they can adjust their objectives and prompt them to do so
Descriptioncurrently, to progress into the new content, which will eventually lead to the end of chapter 1, you have to complete the increasing your intelligence class objective. most people are automatically going to go for intelligence class 3 when they see that objective. but might change their mind when confronted with what has to be done to get to IC3 at this time. when I first played, I didn't realize that you could change your objective goals at any time, and I was worried that the game would force me to do evil things in order to progress.

explicitly telling the players when they attempt the brain harvesting contemplation that they will need to change their objective goal if they want to progress further in the story without brain harvesting would help prevent players from getting stuck here or feeling like they were forced to do something they did not want to do. something like "if this plan isn't to your liking, you will have to abandon your plans to progress to ic3 - for now. you can do this by clicking on the objective in the task stack and setting it to intelligence class 2"

Thanks!

* The Bootstrapped Mind contemplation now spends a fair bit of space strongly encouraging you to go back to the Task Stack and accept intelligence class 2 for now.
** Players can do what they like, but the idea is to make sure they even know that they CAN change their mind from what they chose before.
