    If retainer gathering turns up largely trash, it was a waste of development time.

    If retainer gathering does have notable value, congratulations. You've now compromised DoL to a hilarious degree. Not only does your retainer "bot-gather" for you, but guess what? Now some people who were on the fence about whether they should use an actual bot will go for it -they'll ask, maybe even publicly, "what's the difference?"

    There is no positive outcome with this.

    If you want to expand what retainers can do, there are more helpful and sensible things to consider. I've seen at least a couple decent suggestions in this thread. A general tip: don't play the game for your players; give them the best atmosphere possible so they enjoy playing it.
