where's the option for fantasy creatures in the new version?
see their latest dev log. to skip to the part you care about:
"I suggest you try making sure there's a file called "legacy" (or "legacy.glkdata" if you use Windows Git) in the same folder as TQ (before launching the game), and lo and behold, hopefully you'll be satisfied that for now, there's still a way to get the stuff you like. (There is no way to get this to change in the middle of a run, due to it changing benefits points numbers and setup requirements and stuff.)"
