I’ve been brought to spots in RP for little asides that were so wonderful I kinda wondered if it was a coded thing that could happen. Considered laying down a name bit of floor to commemorate the spots I picked for those, and then I updated the game and lost a lot of the RP memory that may or may not have built up in the background. Everyone stayed at 100 love, but forgot how any of those relationships worked v.v. I did keep my second watch tower though.  That was awesome. 

Start asking around town. On sight Rosalyn and Gareth both were.. not supportive of their existence. 

Finally found, and used these Allure potions. Um, big fan.. no notes. Acacia likes them too… but, it did not spare my life. So. I went it on a high note and I sure did learn a lot, but, I checked at every opportunity if I could escape the conversation or start a follow command, or teleport the conversation somewhere. I actually even gave her my second one to drink when I couldn’t get myself out of the situation. 
No luck. So, I prefer a badass mob that I can just fight to the death like the strange slimes. Or, if it’s not impossible to create, have Acacia start as a savage beast and when we knock her down to zero health, spawn the NPC Acacia on the body and remove the death countdown. Even if she’s never going to be safe to be around at all times I need a win condition to engage with the content. Oh, but seriously, o.o these Allure Potions. They pretty much make up for anything that has ever gone wrong in this game, although I say this before my first friendly use of the thing has worn off. I might have made a mistake today. 

The way Rosalyn has talked her up in my playthrough I was very surprised Isolde wasn’t the very next NPC added to the game. 

Currently loving right now that I’m running into different NPC’s on the adjacent map squares to Silverpine regularly. Orson’s a given, but I found Mirel two tiles over on my way back from the caverns and walked with her back to town. It was delightful!

you’re a legend. Thank you. I’m learning that the swamp might be ntfw at my current level. 

If you're looking at your map. Locations tend to get a cloud over the tile they are in. Caves to the east is straight forward. There's a Glacial Fortress in the High Mountains you need a key to get in and I believe way in the bottom right there is something to find in the swamp. The swamp is kicking my teeth in, so I have yet to risk it.. Flooded Cave gave me half a key for Glacial, I assume the Swamp is hiding the other half.  Also, I think Orson's house (Way North West) Gets a cloud sometimes.. I dunno, the map is rough, I need to take a close look at it.

Blah, it's night on my save. Either way, you might be able to see hints of stuff by looking closely at it. I only really know about the cave, the fortress and I've been murdered in the Deep Woods to the north.

Pretty sure I was in the map square of Silverpine, as in entering the zone, after the sun had set every time so far. But they weren’t all over the place. Just a lone slime in the center-ish of town.  

I only just realized that this line I’m seeing it the relationship bar is the daily cap. Everyone was maxed out until the new NPC appeared and the second time we interacted they clicked for me. Then with the update wiping some level of interaction memory from my save I quickly upset Oriana and learned that the cap works both ways, which.. is a pretty good offset. 

Only note on this is I would definitely prefer if we doubled the limit in both directions. Not a big deal but Orson is far af out of town and once a week is rare air to be in town and paying attention for it. Maybe I really just want the date added below my stat bars, and names for the seven days in a week. 

Maybe it shows up in my inventory, but remembering the days based on my files total number is rough. 

Finally did remember how to use Rune stones properly, rocking a legendary sword changes things in a wonderful way. 

It’s happened twice since then, last day of winter Rosalyn’s house had a frozen slime outside of it. Villagers do not help fight >.> at least that I can tell, but that is literally one of the main reasons I live in this place. 

I just killed a Red Slime directly outside of Aldric's shop o.o What has this update changed? - Also, Deep Woods had an amazing amount of Herb Loot. Very happy with that until I had my throat ripped out

He was not joking about the dialog quality. This is awesome.

Ahh shucks. That daily cap is a long time coming but it was really nice when you’ve restarted your game to bring a few NPC’s into a long conversation and let them boost your reputation to the moon with everyone :p

I’m psyched to see Kane’s expressions though, should be fun. 

I’m not kidding, that’s my exact plan if I can migrate the story thus far to a proper quality custom character.  Poof, I got Magic’d in this beast you see before you! How cool is that!?

So much post and it really just raises the biggest question of all. Is it possible to commute your save file across updates?

I just finally put my characters name in the right place and walk around as Kane for now, but if I ever properly get all the images set up to make a truly custom character….  I don’t know if I could restart my file again. So many hours of development in this little village..

My entire issue with watch tower construction? I didn't have the sisters key yet. Needed to move the foundation five blocks to the right now that I have it >.< I learn this game so slowly.
Fantastic news though, should only be a couple more weeks of my real life for the Western Watch Tower to be built ^^

Pretty sure you need to build her a little shack now, it’s a big, permanent thing. Anytime I sleep in my shack she bounces off to sleep somewhere outside so I kinda feel guilty, like I need to go to the tavern until I double up on beds. I’m kinda hoping moving the bed won’t throw her off either.

I agree but with the caveat that it’s a mixed bag. The LLM has limits, memory is a big one if you ever try to be specific. Your little town isn’t really going to build core lasting memories and if you quiz them on any specifics they’re going to fail and kinda break the moment, and the characters do not know the limitations of the game that they’re in. So they will talk a big game and still be unable to join you outside of the Silverpine map tile or engage you in any actual meaningful combat, or apparently let you build them their stuff. Although I also learned almost immediately after my posting yesterday that I’m not high level friends with the snake sister on this character yet anyway.. so.. I’m gonna get that key, try my original spot again, and see what happens. 

Damn, I had it cleared west of the bath house. My torch fire is on that bend going towards the mountains and it was a great cut off. Just a quirk of discovering the mechanics of the game while the LLM has no idea what they are either. Kinda hilarious.. I'm on good terms with Celadine, Oriana, well I can't say she hates me, but goddamn she is automatically icy stares and even colder shoulders.. I might, barely be able to fit a mirror tower against the river there, but it is definitively a worse spot.

Wish you had an epic FAQ page or vod series to binge, the game feels so simple and then you bump into stuff and kinda fumble for a second trying to guess what works. Thanks for still jumping into the comments though, I've got some building to do

Got roped into building a second watch tower across the river, took forever to prep for it and finally went to start it today.. Cannot build on property that isn't mine? I can build a wall around the tavern, but I can't add to that side of the river. Any chance/way/hack to work around this problem

Game needs a discord, if only to collect the important bits from the comment sections and collect a quality FAQ page. I want to know how anyone knows to communicate with the Ai OOC brain itself. Giving commands that aren’t confusing characters in the moment, or getting them to actually follow through when they say they’re going to follow you. 

Couldn’t get Hayden to budge from bakery when he suggested a walk, left it to imagination after the third attempt. Shy, shy little baker. 

Most relatable post. 100% do not pause a three person conversation, it loses that plot every time. You can sometimes salvage it but you lose a lot of the set up. 

And the constant requests to join to on patrols? I got them so much before they invented different plots to occupy themselves. I suggest diverting to a walk through just the village map section since they all seem to love picnics when walks are discussed.

I recommend not chat trading items that you need to be properly traded. You can exploit the Ai if you’re a jerk about it, but they regularly mess it up and break the flow of any RP. Aldric accepted my items as gifts and paid me in “Gold Coin”x10 in the shape of beer bottles. So I have a stash on the floor of his shop now and am broke, again. 

Not sure if it was something with my PC, a card update, or what. But as of yesterday my loading times fell off a cliff.  3-8 seconds total. 

Don’t want to jinx it, but my god that was an amazing switch in game time. 

I've been in a weird place with the game, and I just so happen to have my PC working as of this particular hour and the new install isn't asking me to pick a Nemo or Gemma to download. Are we entirely server based now or am I overlooking a way to run the game locally?
