i appreciate someone actually saying that we get overwhelmed by the sheer number of castmates instead of "wow they're so cliquey!!11"
i'm probably going to get dogpiled for this, but honestly? that's exactly what it feels like to me, and i love my castmates but holy cow there's a lot to keep up with.
same tbh. not in this game but almost every time my behavior in a game could be perceived as cliqueish within a cast, it hasn't been intentional. in fact, i often think about all the other characters i would like cr with and how it might play out but when you're in a demanding cast (which doesn't even have to be related to the size of the cast fyi, before this becomes about cast caps) and already going above/beyond normal AC expectations with those threads, it can be difficult to muster up the energy to slog through a bunch of, frankly boring, "getting to know you through smalltalk" type threads.
i will say that almost every time I've had any luck with tagging out and getting unexpected new CR it's been because I was lucky the other person posted a good hook on an open log which cut through some of the grind of brand new CR where it's not just another network vaguepost that's like do you prefer pancakes or waffles.
