Version 2.5.0, Asses & Assets

Dev Notes

• Nine weekly builds and counting! Work is underway on Act IV. But, thanks to my newly-furloughed lifestyle (and lots of new content from our writers), I’ve been able to put together a nice tasty build in the interim.
• The war council framework is still very experimental; please report any bugs or inconsistencies on Discord, where I’ll be able to see them, and I’ll get them sorted for the following release.

Features

• Plot: formation of your war council.
• Plot: choosing a general for your kobolds.
• Plot: you may navigate your lair in Act IV. You may not begin conquest yet.

• Malice might have opinions about your choice of name for her.

• Descriptions of the wolf tribe are less culturally insensitive.

Fixes

• Fixed a particularly obscure bug that was preventing the wolf tribe events (including Eburon’s scene) from playing.
• Anonymous wolfmen will appear properly on screen.
• Corrected a flaw in one of Darja’s CGs.
• Darja will not stick around after being eaten.
• Darja no longer intrudes into your dreams after your first night with her.
• Darja is now patient enough to wait at the campsite for your return during Act III.
• Rejecting Darja during Act III no longer makes you sleepy.
• Attempting to access an unfinished area of the game will no longer occasionally drop you back into it at random.
• Assorted improvements to stage direction.
• Assorted spelling and grammar improvements (thanks, Kahryl!).
• And everything else found during the playtest (thanks, GrayRaven!).
