Blending In With The Cult

Good evening,

Over the last week I have done a lot of groundwork and now it's again time to give you an update on everything I've done.

The cover picture already hints at it, I plan to adapt the appearance of the cultists. On the one hand, the previous dialog pictures of them are getting on in years and on the other hand, it would have been difficult to portray different characters with them. Since they were never more than placeholders anyway, I have now set about creating a revised appearance for them in the coming update.
I had been thinking about using masks instead of faces for a while. It's not a new idea, of course, but I think it fits very well here and makes it believable how the MC can sneak in without being immediately recognized as an intruder by everyone. So, that was the work on new textures and then dialog images and character sprites.

Then I've been working on Arianna's model and updated her skin texture. I made new sprites and dialog images for her to replace her old ones which were very outdated. For a moment I had also thought about working on her earliest animations (in the forest) but for now I have put that idea aside since this update will have enough workload anyway as it is and I doubt that I will have time to do more rework (other than Arianna's dialog images).

The other bigger thing I've worked on this week was a new map that will be added north of the ruins map. Short background info:
The village of Darkholt was once founded by King Calan and was intended to show the people how things would continue after the war against the orcs. Back then, the settlers were lured there with promises of riches and prosperity.
None survived when the orcs finally drove back the humans and all that remains today is a ruin that reminds us of the presumptuousness of the old king.

The map will be a part of the storyline for the upcoming update. But as already announced I also plan to adapt/extend the underground map under the old chapel. However, I haven't started working on that yet as for to know what to add I have to work on the story. While writing it I will notice what's still missing.

So the plan for the coming week is clear, I will start working on the story. Now that the basics are done, I can fully immerse myself in the events and then add the missing objects/characters.
What should also not be missing, of course, are new animations. I will deliberately not add any new female characters in this update and instead focus on Arianna, Verena and Elisabeth. For the latter, I already mentioned that the content in Penny's update was a little too short and now that this update also concerns her story, I want to add a little more.

That's all for now. I will continue to work a bit more and wish you all a nice weekend!

Emily get kidnapped once, then you fight one of the Bandits (win or lose).
You go find the Camp and rescue her or pay the ransom.
A week after Emily come back to her house, they try to kidnap her again. You can fight both Bandits before they get Emily. If you lose they take Emily.
I get it but how do I make it so that she doesnt get kidnapped at all?

Yay for Penny's story content. Apart from the main story that has always been my favorite.
On one hand I'm happy there won't be new female chars meaning existing ones will be focused ones, on the other hand I wonder what that will spell for the demoness being summoned whenever the MC uncovers the cult with Thoma's key.

You... don't?
Unless you don't want to continue that side story and ultimately take over the bandits/sex up Emily, you need for her to be captured once and rescue her.

If you mean to not trigger it just dont sleep in emily's house. other than that its mandatory for her to get kidnapped at least once to take over the bandit camp and become their leader

Yeah, as it turns out the kidnapping is a scripted event and the "attack early" option only becomes available after you rescue Emily. Nevertheless, thanks.

What skills does Corven teach for the Bow? I cheated and leveled my MC to a much higher hunting skill (15) and iirc I was supposed to get new skills but it says to wait for future updates for more skills.

Nice to see the cult stuff getting an update.

You need to progress in a specific quest, I forget which one but if I had to guess then it's probably ariannas until you get to the werewolf part.

你需要完成一个特定的任务,我忘了是哪一个,但如果我不得不猜的话,那可能是阿里安娜,直到你到达狼人部分。
