With this, the open world segment is at last officially done! I reserve the right to add more content or make corrections, of course, but the intent was to wrap everything up this time. All harem quests, all side content, all balance, all equipment, etc. This also has much better keyboard and controller support thanks to the tireless work of Rachnera.
This took longer than expected, which will make sense if you look at the version history - I was adding in more content all throughout, even as late as the middle of this week. Lots of details to juggle in a game like this. But it didn't occupy my full time, so I am already deep into work on the final battle.
That's right: the next major update will be starting the final plot sequence. I hope there will be nothing to distract me from this, but of course I'll be around if there are any lingering issues. Anyway, have fun!
hee sierra could you add for some char's some AOE attacks for the ones that dont have it like hilstarra unless you whill keep supplying the project file off the game i can do that myself but iff you arent letting the project file in there then give sertain chars that doesnt have A AOE attack plz add them i have noticed that some battles arent winnable
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback. While I do intend to make some tweaks to balance in a future update, I'm afraid that giving all characters AoE attacks isn't among my plans. If you're having trouble with some battles, perhaps the community and its various guides would be helpful to you?
DeleteWith the right balance of characters, all the fights are eminently doable. Locomotor just needs to inquire in the forum section to indicate specifically what combats are giving him problems. Needing universal AOEs is certainly not necessary. Not all fights are easy, but with the right selection of characters and skills they are all entirely manageable.
DeleteWhen talking with Ginasta in the cell, when Janine visits, she says, "...you're right, we won't come to an agreement easily. I can see myself regretting our methods, but trusting Simon? Never."
ReplyDeleteI think you meant to say *distrusting* Simon?
No-no, it's the right one. "I'll never regret trusting Simon."
DeleteThen it might be clearer if it is "I can see myself regretting our methods, but regret trusting Simon?" It is a bit ambiguous as is, to the point where I read it wrong even knowing what she was trying to say.
DeleteI have got a weird potential bug, but I don't have a clue how it really happened.
ReplyDeleteIn Megail's quest, after you set everything up you can talk to Qum in the Future Orphanage building, where she will talk about helping with different text if you completed Qum's research back in chapter 3 (with the switch 1502: Qum Research Yes) for either +2 or +1 Megail Points.
I did the research in chapter 3, because the switch 1553: Qum Research complete is switched on, but the 1502 switch was not on for me.
I checked and if you talk to Qum in chapter 3 the correct 1502/1503 switches are flipped if you talk to her about it and accept/deny her research. Which means that at some random point in the game that switch is turned off again (and I got no clue why or where).
That sounds potentially concerning, but I wouldn't be able to track it down right now. A possible "why" is that the original switch gets converted to another one for the purposes of research events, but I do not know the "where". What you probably want to do is ask other players and someone with a game dump can pinpoint where it happens - it could also be an odd bug unrelated to my theory.
DeleteI finally found it. First I converted the game to MV so I can actually easily search switches/variables where they were used, but that just said the only two parts the 1502: Qum Research Yes switch is used is the two places I mentioned above (for Qum Research and during Megail's quest).
DeleteBut I found it in the chapter 3 iterate common event:
Under the Robin Research checks, it checks if the 1502 switch is ON, and then switches it off and switches the 1553: Qum Research Complete switch ON. (https://imgur.com/a/8uZg9uP)
Thanks for checking! I hadn't thought of using MV... but yeah, the official MV search is kind of garbage.
DeleteAnyway, the logic here is all fine up to the last step: I thought 1502 was a permanent switch instead of the intermediary. Qum will now display her proper dialogue, and more importantly you have avoided a potential future bug!
Here we go.
ReplyDeleteFinal battle…. The more you say it, the more I can feel the incoming end, it makes me nervous and jumpy XDXDXD
Why do I have a 777 save ? Strange. Maybe I’m finally lucky (7 is a lucky number iirc) ?
“The current generation remember those scars, but the next ? Will it reccur in a thousand years ?” Time is a giant wheel, always returning to the same point and crushing all opposition under it. No immortals can resist its wear.
A more humane weapon, huh ? I agree that it’s the second best alternative, the first being that they’re not used again, of course. But better to kick that flag down while we’re still in control.
True, we are the only generation where Unpeople and Unsuccubi coexist at the same time, and it would horrible to rip apart innocent souls just in the name of improving their fates later. So let’s go !!!!
Oh, so it’s just devising a method to improve their defenses, much better than the current process indeed.
It’s nice to see that our work created a world where Unpeople and proto-Unsuccubi can talk about their similarities peacefully, maybe around a drink
A Yhilini Unperson expert who vanished after the war ? Hmmm, isn’t she the one who worked with Entila to weaponize the Unpeople program ? The one who changed Dari, and led us to our first meeting with Vhala ? Hohoho, I think I’ll like having a ‘chat’ with her…. unless she was forced to act against her will.
Another one ? An Aramite who went into seclusion after the war as penance…. Yeah, I can see how such work is scaring, even if most of them were volunteers. Messing with people souls is a heavy burden, especially for those who reject the transformation.
Hmm, Palina said her experience can help with the project. Assuming she’s talking about Tanurak machination, shouldn’t it only apply on a non-Sabitha save run ?
Heyyy, the bounty hunter offices are reopened !!!! Quick, take all the bounties !!! *Immediately forget our goal for coming here in the first place* Nooooo, there’s still 3 remaining !!! Let me iiiiiiiinnnnnn !!!!!!!!!!!
“It’s like you haven’t aged a single day” This could be a good promotion for anti-age cure for nobles ^^ “Your skin will be as fresh as your prime for centuries !!! Side effects may or may not include severe depression, baldness and er*ctile disfunction. Might also work reversely.” XDXDXD
Every time people ask about Ivala, I always get the urge to just summon her for relieving their grievances. She would be a good psychologist I think. At the very least, a suit and glasses would work well on her ^^
F for the old man and his wife, but it’s always interesting to see how many people contributed in their own way for the war. The unseen extra tales who shaped up the world…. Technically, Simon was an extra for most of his life, so it’s easier to find an emotional connection with them than with the Chosen (except Kalant)
I understand his wariness and despise at the succubi, but we were at war, and war is dirty. They were facing an existencial crisis on both sides : whether the Incubus A**hole or the humans won, they would have faced extinction, either a slow agony or a quick purge.
Plus it’s not like a lot of communication was attempted from either sides.
“My crimes are like a shadow of what I suspect they endured” Actually, they’re more of a distorted reflection of your work since the process was similar to what your wife experienced in her last fight, but yes, the Incubus A**hole clearly took inspiration of the Unpeople.
Tracking down people remind me of the good old times, where we seeked orc seeds, or a slippery halfling enchanter ^^
Huh, the kid wanting to be a merchant in the slums is new, when did he appear ?
Delete“No chance for a lover, children, grandchildren…. That’s not a life worth living.” Well excuuuuuuuuuuuse me, but children are overrated, I live alone and am perfectly happy with my life. No need to share my precious time with another person, nobody to nag me on my hobbies, and peace and quiet in the evening. Telling someone a life isn’t worth living because of that is pretty rude and insensitive, everybody make different choices.
“I suppose I was harsh on you… I’ll help, if only to apologize.” Well thaannnk you, but apologizing directly is a better alternative you know ?
Whoa, what the heck is that VR projection ? Are we gonna play chess among each others by acting like pieces ? Play Civilization (well we kinda did that during the whole game) ? Anyway, it’s quite fun to run around the map like that ^^
Elves wanting to be Unelves is another part of offering more possibilities and freedom to everyone ^^ Although it would annoy Lynine for sure ^^
“I’m afraid I can’t descend from the Heavens and tell people to support you, but I’ll help if I can” Oh come on, can’t you do it just one time ? That would be so fun !!! But the political and religious consequences of that…. Sigh, at least we can fool around in the castle with some roleplay ^^ Oh oh, that would be perfect for a Werewolf game !!! Plus we have more than enough people to play it ^^ Would be a nice minigame, you can always add it at the same time as the F*ckball ^^
Still Vhala reaction to Ivala reminded me of when Sarai met her, especially the sentence “If I had appeared before you and commanded something evil, you x=would have challenged me.” Vhala would have reacted quite the same I think.
True, creating a better world for a long time, if not forever was and still is our goal from the beginning. Plus we can fix it later down the line ^^
Everyone is bullying poor Xestris XDXDXD Her attitude is not so dissimilar to Ginasta though, staying cautious about our increasing strength. I suppose the main difference is that everyone is wary about where her loyalty will lead her when we meet back Xerces.
“Do you think I felt less for Simon because our relationship is different ?” This accusation is a bit strong I think, Xestris isn’t the type to make such rude assumptions. Look at Tyna, our relationship was strictly platonic, but we still ended up taking care of her like a daughter ^^
Delete“Thank you for your trust, you won’t regret it.” “….” Oh come on, don’t be like that. She will stay our ally for sure !!! Maybe ? …….. Don’t worry, I can always edit her loyalty switch to ON if necessary, Sierra just need to add one XDXDXD
Developing that point, did Xestris try to reach out to Ginasta about their similarities or is she looming in her corner like Ulrissa ? She need more hugs from Qum. In fact efverybdy need more. Launch more Qum bombs !!!!
Let’s quickly win the final battle so that Mithyn and her cult can finally have their discussion, my anticipation is unbearable.
Orcs knowing a lot about transformation is the truth, they are the ones whose bodies and mind changed the most. Like a pile of clay….. similar to Prometheus myth of creating man from clay, or the legend of the Golem.
Yay, armor upgrade !!! Though, instead of shocker troops, Unsuccubi were more used as unstable kamikazes. “Do you just gain the ability to do that throaty when you get old enough or something ?” Believe me, it’s far from the classic ‘Ohoho’ from ojou-sama and the ‘Ara ara’ from anime XDXDXD
“I think it taste like Not Lady and that is not bad” Did you imitate Sabitha, Qum ? Noming peoples is okay as long as you don’t bite them ^^
Pureflower is a potent ingredient….. Maybe something similar to the Gray Lotus ? Or maybe something to combine with other things like the Depthstone, Immortal Thread and the Arcane Drop….. We already have a Concrete Seed after all, what else can be weirder than that ?
“If you truly to implement those new plans, accept our challenge !!!” Okay…? I mean, we already have your goddess in our pocket, so we can always bypass you, but what’s this challenge thingie ? (Deliberately ignoring the glowy and floaty symbol right beside us ^^)
“If cooperation is possible, prove it” “Okay. Can you give me a kiss Qum ?” *PROOF* I mean, it impressed the Gawnfall council, why wouldn’t it impress them ? And wait, you wanna torture them ‘legally’ ? Come on, not cool. “Test yourselves if you dare” Oh believe me, we dare, we can totally floor all of you in 1 mn top, you’re nothing compared to the monsters from the Tower (not counting you Wendis, you’re not a monster and you’re not in the Tower, you’re a hot Abomination XDXDXD)
“There must not be more icky hugs, and that means helping Not Lady !!!” The best justification to our quest, politics, preventing future wars ? Nah, we just want more hugs ^^
DeleteAahh, constant Sexbind ? Then it’s fine, just some Transcendant Rings and Succubus Pin are enough to fight carelessly ^^
“The not sexy sparklies are weird and nasty but Not Lady is nice even though she is not sexy” Awwww, so cute ^^ Still, is she seeking her sparklies to rebalance her mana cycle since she went through this disturbance because she accustomed herself to her natural mana frequency ?
Ah ? New Hermit event ? I knew following the Gray Lotus path for the Pureflower was a good idea !!!
“….” “…..” “….” I think she like Robin too ^^ By the way, did Grynith apologized for her harassement from before ? Not that she would care, but still.
Just one more sublime ingredient, huh ? Seems like it’s Nalili item then !!! But I’m focusing on Vhala quest right now, so later.
Oh, they’re more people down there XDXDXD At least it gives an idea about which continent is in which direction ^^ Let’s start with Vunne then !!! Ah ? Already a new side quest ? Let’s go !!!!
Uh, the prompt said to got to the capital, but’s it’s at the Throne of Lust instead. Probably a mistype. Oh, a distortion huh ? Good old times indeed ^^
“That’s what we do in the abstract” True, we’re detectives, bounty hunters, psychologists, matchmakers, diplomats, warriors, strategists, bankers, exorcists, orphanage builders, rifts closers, merchants, saviors, war preventers, race developers, peacemakers, rat exterminators and I’m sure I’ve forgotten half of it XDXDXD So what is your problem, we’re here to help !
Ah, the exorcist/warrior/rift closer type. Be back in a minute !!! *30 sec later* Wow, that was fast XDXDXD Truly a remnant, he focused his lust attacks on Vhala XDXDXD
A S*xual robe, huh…. Isn’t that pretty much the grail for the succubus priestress ? Sexy, pass purity checks AND don’t offend Ivalans ? I sure know a priestess in Feroholm who would kill to have it XDXDXDXD
All those challenge thingies are pretty fun ^^ Ghenalon next !!! Ah, in the VR room ^^ Oh, a couple fight with Yarra ? Great !!!
First, the enemy sprite is very nice ^^ Second the swinging pattern is cool ^^ Third, new synergy ???!!! LET’S GO !!!!!!!!!!! “I made an Unwoman sexy !!! I am the greatest succubus alive !!!” LOL XDXDXD
Nice to see them clear the misunderstanding immediately, it’s not s*xual sexiness, it’s intellectual sexiness ^^
Carina, Altina and Riala surpassed level 100 and Uyae reached it ^^ I’m proud of my Pokemons ^^
DeleteIt’s cool to see that the challenges don’t repeat themselves ^^
Yeah, Erosia would have certainly liked to have such knowledge before, it might have helped the resistance or counter a bit the *literal* dry spell.
“Huh, Tatseni was more useful than expected” LOOOLLL, most accurate description of Tatseni possible XDXDXD
Hey, some news about Allue and Alluon, been a while ^^ By the way, what happened to them back during Khampfor death, did they seclude themselves or were they excluded from politics by others ?
By the way, what happened to Wendis skeleton when she switched ? Did they put it back in her coffin or was it destroyed with her overwhelming power ?
Hmmm, can’t activate the last Shining sword bonus…. Maybe I missed one ? Oh well. EDIT : I’ve added more shining swords to test and it still doesn’t trigger. I think it’s a bug in my version ? Thosha version works. Meh, I can just add one by editing the save, no big deal now that I have seen the cinematic ^^
Ooooh, nice blade, it’s like an antimatter version of the Shining sword…. Also it fits Simon well ; while Chosen are flashy, bask in the light of glory and disappear as fast as a candle flame, Simon work unseen in the dark, preferring to stay humble as his grasp and rule extend as far and as long as the eternal night. Even stars fade away, only darkness prevail at the end of time. And truly, we’re already at the end of this story, as they shall fade away behind the veil…… *wipe a tear or two*
“You have far more support in Aram than expected.” “Still hard to believe we have real support from Aram.” Yeah, with how often they’re trashtalking us, it’s quite surprising ^^
And now the dwarves !!! “Dwarven expertise will provide an angle we were completely lacking last time.” Yeah, don’t forget to ask for Agnan and his deep expertise on Dwarf c*m LOL
Okay, we have the full map…… Now what ? “Received Crest of Nations” LOOOOOLLLL, “What did you expect from saving the world ? A pin’s ?” XDXDXD We actually received one HAHAHAHA So worth it ^^
Delete“A symbol of extraordinary political maneuvering” Yup, synopsis of the game, right here.
“So much alignement in the absence of an existential threat ? Remarkable.” I agree, though the existential threat is still here, it’s just hidden from sight ^^
“Why did you engage with politics, if not to feel pretty ?” Well personally I did it to feel FABULOUS~~~ ^^
Pretty cool to see the new look of the hit orcs, they seem pleased with their appearance ^^
“Still, a more ‘wholesome’ future meant fewer people like her, and fewer places for her” Awww, don’t worry, we’ll always be here for you, and you’ll always have a home *headpat*
Lol, Carina hiding in a closet XDXDXD
See ? Your friends are here for you ^^ As for the wholesome Cg, I imagine it’s a mix between her drink with Riala and one where she laugh happily while supplexing their necks with her arms while raising her glass ^^ I’m sure she’s a happy handful when drunk ^^
Alrighty then, now let us ride to Stineford, where a mad god modified reality !!!! Come, my fellow knights !!! *coconut sounds* (Hmmm, maybe I’ve watched Holy Grail too much recently, it shows in my speech patterns. Oh well, Monty Python movies are always fun XDXDXD)
Whaoumpf, that’s an overall alright !!! Man, I can’t even recognize the entrance !!! Good job !!! Man, I feel loss, the design stayed with us for a decade and now it’s gone…… Seriously, it doesn’t even look like it belong to the same game, except the interior of the shops…. Which create discrepancy of course. Will they get even more upgraded in the future ?
Now the slums look slumy, even more than the Yhilini one back then….. Can’t get used to the change, it’s too much in one go XDXDXD Oh, and the Hall of Purity is opened…. No I tooootally didn’t forget it’s existence !!! *heavily sweat* Ah, and same as Iris silk shop, we can’t access the back even though we’ve purged and founded the place. Siiigh.
Well now this dude tent don’t look so weird, he have neighbors now.
Will you update the city sprite in the map view too ?
Huh, I wonder if the monument was a different sprite before it was rebuilt….. (checked, no change) The Gilded Lily is even more pretentious now, makes it even better we shut it down permanently ^^ The flower bed is more beautiful yes, and the kill box is much more threatening now with the smaller space, spikes and narrow entrance. Strangely, the pretentious Mherin fits better in the scenery now, maybe because it is a bit too opulent for it to be really useful I guess ?
Wait, noo !!! I need to look at the Cathedral garden !!!! Damn, at which save was it open already ? *Frantically rummage in Tosha cache* Found it !!! Seems there are no changes. Shame.
The shock is slowly fading away, but still, it clearly doesn’t resemble Ardford, or Feroholm style. Also still need to break the ‘purity’ hold over the academy and let the deviant guard meet his other half near Bertricia.
DeleteHmmm, can’t seem to find the Gheldaron, Gheldaron and Zirantia details in the base. The only ones I already found are Tak’kan shield, Erosia booze, Eustrin statue, Rodak plaque and Tyna banner, and the Orgasmic one near Nalili. Hmmm… Maybe near Lynine and Uyae then ? *5 seconds later* Found it !!!!
Scene under the tree : “This is nice.” *’This is fine fire’ dog meme flashback* XDXDXD More seriously, a moment of peace and rest in the chaos of life is important before the final battle, especially for those 2 weary souls.
Entity cohesion : 101. I’m proud of my work ^^
I liked the letter in Nalili’s room, another exemple of the silent helpers and extras having a life outside our view, but still influencing the world’s fate ^^ And all of that with no transmigration to boot, respect !!!
I’ve noticed that for long quest objectives, I can’t select them to scroll down, wasn’t it possible before ?
Yeah, I don’t think we can wait a full year for you to figure it out. But if you want more interesting projects, come to our base !!!
I’ve noticed the papers in the bar/explorer office, and have started reading the one talking about the four seals….. It’s gonna be a broom, right ? Knew. It. XDXDXD AndWHAT THE F***, 75 Sx ???!!!! Are you crazy ????!!!! XDXDXD With that said, I’d like to explore such places eventually, maybe postgame.
Ah, a sparkle, it must be you. Hehe, it would be fun if Simon and co could see all the interface when I open it, the quests, formation, skills, it would become a system novel with an exterior entity breaking their 4th wall to manipulate them, kinda scary XDXDXD
“Please, I have seen everything this wo” Nope ^^ I liked Robin smirk when she said “nowhere easily harvestable”, that’s quite the understatement XDXDXD “What are you trying to do, cure death itself ?” Weeelll, we already kinda did with Wendis, and she was far much gone at that point. To be honest though, she did half of the heavy lifting on her own.
“I should have asked compensation before giving my secrets, but too late now” At least you’ve seen legendary ingredients and an extreme formulation, that made your day ^^
“I don’t need to meet her that badly, I was hoping she was within walking distance.” Maybe we can install a communication channel with her later if you want and if she accept ^^
Created the Final Potion *Viking horn blowing in the distance*
“It nearly failed. If you had not helped me acquire my potion license so many years ago, I think I would have messed up the reagents.” AH, take that speed runners !!! Completionists rule !!!!!! ….Oh, it was a joke. Meh, still counts.
“….too many ideas to talk now….” I guess she’s happy. I wanted to ask her permission to visit her tree house, but let’s do that later.
So, this potion. “Not gonna lie, this thing is ominous.” Yup, that’s a flag, right here. Like with Trin. I wonder how many people ‘accidentaly’ killed her ? Is there a stat on Steam or Patreon to count that 'achievement’ ?
No idea where the alternate configurations for Yarra room are, moving on.
Now to Sarai dialog changes !!! Since I always allowed the sexy times, I need to find the switch first. There !!! 3280.
Huh, I don’t think I talked to Ulrissa before, must’ve missed her on my run. Welp, new lore !!!!
Hoarding knowledge and not giving to anyone…. Really remind me of this text about dragons ^^ https://mediachomp.com/what-if-collectors-are-actually-dragons-in-disguise/
Negative theology, huh ? I agree that she limit herself more than she act. I know half of it is her neutral role in the Tower removed from reality, but the other half surely come from her apathy and indifference to nearly everything.
A seer wolf, huh ? Not that different from skinning a ram and dancing with that on your head (can’t remember which culture did that, but I’m sure someone did that before) It’s nice to see her pout, it change from her usual calm XDXDXD
DeleteHmm, the more you learn, the harder it is to react the same way about the things you holded dear before. Also agree on the supreme entity being all of reality, it is much more powerful than the goddesses and Incubus Kings, since so far, none have managed to just unmake it (and if our plans works, nobody will manage to do so, to Qum great relief : “Don’t destroy the everything !!! That’s where C*mdump and her friends live !!!”)
Hmm, so her faith is similar to a druid, the beauty of nature without divine intervention…. I agree that plenty of sights on the continents are beautiful, and I’m not even talking about the Tower ^^
Hmm, a good way to accept your choices. Nobody can live without regrets, or else they haven’t lived at all. To continue is to accept that you will be hurt, but also that you will always discover new things to enrich your understanding of yourselves, your loved ones and your world. And don’t forget to breathe. Breathing, is important.
Grynith is still sore about her dark past as a xenophobic zealot, huh ? Well, all those who escape from cults and brainwashing are ashamed of it, so it’s okay to feel guilt, it show you feel better now.
Hmm, mechanistic huh ? I both understand and not Sarai viewpoint, since I’m an atheist, but was still educated in a relatively catholic country and personally like reading Greek and Egyptian mythology (was already a fan before Percy Jackson and co ^^).
I learned about Roman myths in school and also have some vague notions about Aztec/Maya/something thanks to ‘The Mysterious Cities of Gold’.
Finally, we have some family friends who are Muslim.
So this culture mix makes it both easier and more difficult to understand the viewpoint of a true religious since they all share important truths but also clash a lot against each others on peculiar points (though personally, I find that the Bible have a lot of plotholes, but I won’t start ranting about it here)
Ahah !!! Always aim for the sparkle !!!! Though reading the conversations again was nice ^^ But yeah, at that point, holding back wasn’t going to offer much benefits.
“A quiet little shrine to the unknown.” If not for the soul/body shredding aura from the Tower, I’m sure you could sit on a chair, have a drink or two, and relax while appreciating the view.
Wait, I just ‘finished’ Sarai quest, and there’s a sparkle in her tower that gives me the same dialog after the cinematic where she ask Simon to give her some time to know herself. I assume it’s the alternate event, right ? Might be good to fix it.
New Ginasta scene : Awww, don’t cry *headpat* It’s not because you love someone that you have to give everything away, or abandon all your worries about his powers. You are your own woman, you can be who you want to be and do what you want to do, even if we might not be on the same page. You’ll always strive to protect innocents, even from us, and that’s admirable. You don’t have to feel guilty about this.
I’ve noticed that the Qum nickname list didn’t include every harem member. For Trin, I believe you said Qum finded her too mean to deserve one, but what about the others ? Did the wiki miss them or is it not implemented yet ?
DeleteHeey, Sabitha portrait is fixed, nice ^^
So we’re going all in in this war with 3 bookcases missing….. I’m worried.
When you say the saves won’t be able to access anything, do you mean that the entire final battle will be in save lock state like the timed sections ? Wow, ruthless !!! And the optional dungeon will be added before…. Wait. That means I won’t be able to play for the next months if you don’t add it before the final battle since I’m a completionist !!!! NOOOOO !!!!!!!! (on the bright side that leave plenty of time to the wiki to work on the walkthrough, but damn, so harsh. I won’t even be able to read the blog to prevent spoilers)
And it’s this disastrous news that I’m leaving you !!! See you…. Well not next time !!!!
Toodles ^^
Wow, I think this is your longest response to an update ever! I have only skimmed now and will have to get back to you in full later.
DeleteThe new 777 save is storing control configuration data, so you should ignore it.
DeleteKid in the slums should appear after Megail's quest.
Good catch about it being the Throne of Lust instead of Denlak!
Glad you liked all the challenge fights. ^-^
Allue and Alluon have been increasingly marginalized in Zirantian politics ever since the political upheaval damaged the Divine Claw's reputation.
Wendis's old skeleton was absorbed into her new body... I think? Didn't I say that?
You aren't the only person to say Stineford interiors should be overhauled, but it'd be so much work. T-T I hadn't thought about updating the map tiles for the city... I could, I guess?
Alternate Yarra room configurations are in the control room, with everything that isn't portraits.
I don't control the wiki; if any content is missing, you should add it yourself or talk to other players.
It should be possible to fill all bookshelves. If some are empty, something got lost either between saves or in my notes.
No, the final battle won't be all save-locked. I mean that if you save during it and leave no saves from before, you won't be able to go back. Keep saves.
I have done completely everything in the game (as far as I know), and these three bookcases are still empty for me: https://imgur.com/a/hqDWjWj
DeleteI confirm it's the same ones for me
DeleteBlah. One of these is the optional dungeon (forgot about that) but there is something else amiss. =/ Not what I wanted to spend time hunting down right now, but thank you for reporting it.
DeleteOne more bug, simple but potentially game ending: After returning from Ziranthia to Yhilin in Chapter 3, Qum's walking path in the library should probably be set so she turns around and walks back before she hits the left wall, otherwise its quite possible to be trapped behind her and only restoring from a save can get you out.
ReplyDeleteThis pathing issue -might- come up after you agree to let Qum do her research.
DeleteFurther investigation has uncovered a more general bug, which I've now seen twice with Qum and once with another sprite: "cutscene" chats with a character seem to reset their set movement patterns. This has caused the child succubus running around the armor just before the third arclent war to instead run around another square, for example. Normally this is just a weird oddity, but it is possible in some circumstances for this to cause a situation where Simon gets trapped and needs to reset.
DeleteUnfortunately, what you are describing is less a bug than the behavior of RPG Maker. Any event shift combined with a movement route will lead to this behavior - for example, Qum actually doesn't hit the walls normally, but her path will reset if you cause her to change event.
DeleteAs of the current version, there's a bug in Hilstara's harem quest where if you have Lilith in your active party during the Redlights fight then Lilith will join Hilstara as a combatant instead of it being a solo fight.
ReplyDeleteI've additionally tested it for Ginasta and it seems to work the same way for her as well.
DeleteThis quest was never updated for the case of being completed so late in the game! I'll just need to add the two of them to the party logic. Thanks for the report. ^-^
DeleteNoticed an exceptionally small error when replaying through the game: In twisted Glen there is a tile missing in a location five tiles to the left and ~7 tiles up from the chest. This tile should be the upper left half of a tree.
ReplyDeleteConfirmed - that is very difficult to spot because of the grass pattern!

Wow, even given the location, my brain tries to fill in the grass as completing the tree pattern. But I do see it, so fixed, thanks!
DeleteVery well played, it's hard to unsee it unless Simon block the grass pattern, and it lead me to a conversation I missed, so thanks ^^
DeleteA little bug report/impressions while playing OEA again to pass the time ^^
ReplyDelete- I’ve noticed that my skill set in my second run were much more aggressive than the first one. I’ve gone from a mostly debuff/control build where my main focus were DoT and heals to a first blood build where I aimed to kill all enemies in less than 3 turns. The difference between Archetype understanding between the two runs was the turning point^^
- The completed Frozen Tale quest have a scroll instead of a green V even if you successfully sneak in.
- I don’t think I’ve said it last time, but the similarities between Simon and Wilhem are pretty obvious. Both lost someone precious, both fight to protect others, both are suffering silently from their heavy burdens. Makes me wonder how a meeting between them would go, considering Simon sometimes took hard decisions that Wilhem might frown upon. Anyway, I’m sure a heartfelt discussion with Orcent at a bar would resolve everything ^^
- In the completed quest 'A New Start', I can’t see all objectives because there is no option to scroll down without leaving the quest description.
- When you change locations, the game spend a long time loading it. Sometimes it takes 20 s. If you try to move around or open the menu, most of the time the game crash. The ‘Now Loading’ screen didn’t make it’s first appearance until I entered the Grim Tale, and only intermittently after that.
- Could we get a backlog too ? Would be nice since I misclick often.
- A color indicator on the pointer in the dance mini game would be nice, I don’t think I was the only one thinking I had to follow the indications from left to right, following the decreasing timer.
- Lol, Story Users get to skip the fights with the Champion ? That’s cheating !!! We’re just blinding him with light XDXDXD Oh, we can’t remove it ? Shame, I wanted to fight him honorably XDXDXD
- Still impressive that Ulfina have a better alcohol tolerance than Ingrid XDXDXD
- By the way, Ulfina said that she can’t differentiate colors when we picked Volcano Flowers. Is it something she’d be able to change in her essence off-screen after the ending, or was it just some lore ?
- Ah yes XDXDXD The sexy pumpkin transformation XDXDXD That was fun ^^
- After Ingrid went to Happyville, Ulfina say “Let’s not go back there. It’s a silly place.” Is this a reference to Holy Grail from the Monty Pythons ? XDXDXD
- Interesting to see how the Twin Branch resonate with Hood and Fenris relationship. Two stories entwined around each other to become a greater whole. We arrive when their couple is already well established, so they are confortable with each other, but even then, their love shine strong, you really did a good job with them.
- Replaying the lower layer of the… place, I see more than before. The number of coins, Maiden’s Tears after the flashback where she realize she’s utterly alone… Designing the mechanics of a game, the plot, the loot and collectables, and even leaving silent hints like that, as always you’re damn impressive. And let’s not forget the novels !!! Meanwhile…. I’m not doing anything too great. At least I’m a penguin XDXDXD
- Still, while I don’t approve slaughtering entire Tales for power (then again, she was brainwashed), gotta say that Bloody Ingrid way of ending harassement sure is DEFINITIVE. Every girls should have a hammer on themselves. Pepper spray is also a good alternative.
- Some of the dialog repeat itself with the nurse outfit guy, specifically the “It would help me explore but it’s not really necessary”
- Shame we can’t remove the Storybooks, I wanted to fight the Blight and Hand of Violence fairly….
- Lowkey 4th wall breaking when Ingrid realize they’re in a new Fable entirely ^^
