The story of Ember?

I've been encouraging the community not to limit themselves based on nostalgia. Why duplicate a 20 year old game? As I've reflected, I've realized that internally I've been polarizing the issue. There are shades of gray. Just because you build a fountain pen and process your own parchment doesn't mean you have to transcribe a Shakespeare sonnet. You could write something new with the delicate and elaborate tools of old. That's how I see the story of Ember. You miss the smell of the ink, the weight of the pen, but you have a chance to create a new world.
