King of Retail 2

Company Name?
OK, this may sound like a silly question, especially from someone who played KoR1 to death, and has had KoR2 for about a week, but here goes...Where do you enter the company name?

After spending the last few days getting used to where the menus were, what's in the game and what's not right now, and just getting a feel for it, I decided to start again and give it a proper go.

On my test run for these last few days, I noticed that my company name seems to be the name I gave for the concept at the beginning of the game.

So, here I am at the very beginning of a new game, ready to enter my details.
First it asks me to select a concept. Here we only have one choice; "My Concept".
In the first game, the concept was the type of retail store that you were creating, like a food store or a computer store or a clothes store.
You could have several different concepts, and open several stores with whatever concept was appropriate.

After that, and after setting the funds, it asks for a Store Name. It specifically says it's so that you can recognise them from each other. For this, common sense means that if you've chosen a food concept, then the store might be something like "Al's Groceries" or "NomNom's", and it you want to distinguish stores from the same franchise (concept) then maybe "Al's Groceries #1" or "NomNom's #5" (seeing as we don't have street addresses).

The next step then show us a summary, with the Store Name, and the concept for that store underneath it.

Where's the company name?

I ask mainly because I read somewhere that once you decide on the company name (wherever that is), it cannot be changed, and it's stuck for the entirety of that playthrough.
Can't remember if this was the case with KoR1.

So again, we should have the following:

Concept Names : The franchise or type of concept/products that store is based around.
Store Names : Names for each store, and each one based on a concept.
Company name : The name of the parent company that owns the whole shebang.

If the name of the company CAN be changed at any point in the game (or if that's the plan when it's added) then it's not a problem, and I can just get on with it.
But if I decide to give this new game a proper try and invest a lot of time on it, I don't want to have to start again just because my company name is the name of my concept.

I do appreciate that the game is early access and far from completion, and I'm up for the journey (been on many), but I just need clarification on this.

Unless I've missed something, there is no company name, just concepts and store names, yet parts of the game seem to treat the concept name as the company name.

Oh, and Merry Christmas!! :steamhappy:

You can change concept names at the concept floor at the HQ.
When inside the store, cliuct the name at the top and you can give a new nickname.
Yes, as of now there is no company name. Soon there will be opened up for multiple concepts allow for multiple names under one company.

And you are right, there should be a company name as well. I will add it at some point also during the HQ milestone part :)
Thanks for the quick reply Dohlar.
I thought I was going mad. :)
My only request would be that it can be changed at any point, just like the concept names and the store names.

Now go back to your Christmas Dinner. :)
