Update 2.3 Mission 6 Added


Version 2.3 Chapter 6 Update

Added Mission 6: Battle for Brookhaven

Added quips 6 and new dream sequences

Added Bond Conversations 5- PLEASE NOTE flirting will set the path for romance, while not flirting will set the path to friendship. A flirt score of 3 or higher is required for a successful romance. (Flirt +) adds +2 to the flirt value. The end of the conversation will change depending on if the romance or friendship flag is triggered. This is the last chance to set the relationship status. Bond 6 will require the heart crafted gift and will be implemented in the future. "You have gained affection" = Romance Flag "You have gained Trust" = Friendship Flag

Added Beileph the Strategic Scholar as a recruitable/romanceable companion

Added Beileph bond sprite and Skill Trigger animation for Tactical Edge

Added Mikaylis Skill Trigger animation for Stone Shield

Bug Fixes

Fixed bug with activate skill where Lor wasn’t always using his skill

Fixed bug with Lor would sometimes buff a non-water unit (and probably make them super uncomfortable).

Fixed bug with Beisel’s quip 5 accidentally boosting her to quip 6

Beisel was missing from the “relax” letters. Now she also has things to write to TO. Added Beileph as well.

Fixed several spelling/grammar errors and fixed some inconsistencies with tone/terms.

Added some text to clarify Samuel’s explanation as to the founding of Brookhaven. The Crown sent their political enemies to a beast infested area under the guise of solving the problem with beasts when in actuality they wanted to sacrifice them. The founders ended up actually solving the problem with the beasts by building the current sewer system. The founders anticipated a day when the Crown would retaliate and built their defensive walls.

Lower tithes at the Temple to get clues for Samuel’s whereabouts

Lower fees collection quest for Katnir to from 10 to 7-

Nerfed Katnir’s party composition- he is still designed to be defeated in Mission 3 with bond level 2 units, so no worries if he still beats you in Mission 2.

Increased loyalty gain from "grooming" from 1 to 2.

I've completed mission 5 and 6 just a while ago, so I came back to share my thoughts! I had no problems or any bugs popping up, so that's good. ^^ and I absolutely loved the bond 5 conversations! I was really excited to do Lor's :'3 I plan to do all the routes to see each of the characters future relationship with the player! :D on that note I want to add that I am really happy that you need to craft special items for the units to progress with either a romantic bond or friendship bond. I am a person who tends to speed through stuff like this, so.. yeah, I'm grateful 'xD it keeps me busy and I love it when I have something to do before I can move on. It feels rewarding that way! C: thanks for another great update!~ 

Oh thank you so much for the positive energy! This did totally make my day :D I'm so happy that you look for the updates! And that you were able to play through these missions without any pesky bugs and that you enjoyed the most recent conversations with the companions. I'll keep working diligently and hope you will check again at the end of April for the next mission! <3 best wishes!

Helloooo ! I think ı finally finished the quest and here ı am! although doing this in every story quest update makes me feel like as ıf ım some annoying nosy girl but ı cant help it >-< ! Plus ı actually encountered some bugs while playing too (ı got either screenshoots or loooong code things ı will talk about them after sharing my thoughts  :3)  

even ı doubt there no one else except creator reads my comment lets say spoiler warning!

second note: ı do have a memory of a goldfish so ı may write names utterly wrong ;w; ım sorry for this ı do care for characters though!! ı just cant remember their names sometimes haha and ı rambled too much againnn ;-; sorry

Sooo while ı was ready for the next mission ı was also soo anxious remembering the side game's brookhaven fight. Like wow ı dont even know how many times did ı used quick save and load in order to win against queen and her elite men. so ı was actually tense while going for the war.. also the reason why queen literally let me wander around... ıt kinda sent chills to me :') she literally used me as a excuse! but ı still dont have any idea that why she suddenly pulled the trigger? because she heard rumors about beast god and knew that ı was in brookhaven? or she thought perhaps she was wrong about my power and literally decided to pick me and lock me in a room to use me just like how she did in side game... or perhaps both ... but ı kinda doubt too because ı roughly remember that queen also sent  jeth to get me? ı guess that rumor was like when ı first came into katnir's place so ı cant remember much. also the way they just first stroke at brookhaven and then started to stir things up in katnir's forest ( ı highly believe that jeth is the rot of this problem) to immediately move into their next plan.. (probably for second war?) is eviiiill !!!! ;-; just give people some breattth!!!! but ı was really suprised when the only elite character ı had to fight agaisnt was Mikaylis.. I mean ım not saying he was easy... ıf ıt werent for Ruwin to strike back every single time when other team hit us ı wouldnt be able to win haha... but ı was like waiting something like what happened in side game so was really suprised? why she didnt play her all cards? to test my abilities? or did she thought ım a easy win? but ım glad they didnt came at me all together because even putting up agaisnt Mikaylis was enough for me... but ım afraid they may be attack me in next missions aaa XD (my guess is second round will be against Jeth) soo after the war had finished and everything was fine... until Beileph gave me the letter... ı guess the malfuction gods talked about was how katnir wanted to leave to my guild due to his stress? ı mean ı can understand him... while being away from your home trusting your allies... you learn that some of them are not your allies at all... ım sure he was so upset :'( but ım glad that ı managed to stop him and made him agree with me so he wont be all alone but we will deal with it together so yaaay team power ! :3 and ıf my assumptin about jeth is right then ı wanna roast him so bad... how dare you try to take someone's home >-< 

overall everything was nice the small ball was soo pretty ! (ı really loved sibling's dresses they were gorgeus aaa :3 )and how Lor got me a perfectly fitting dress ( thank you Lor! but how can you measure so perfectly only with using your fingers from distance O_O??)  

soo after managing to fisinih to mission ı finally went to tavern and talked with everyone and ım actually glad everyone is oppening up with me ^^ ! unlike the side game meetings are alot more friend-like probably thank to the friendship option ım really glad that seeing them doing good (well except katnir cant stop from overthinking? ^^;; but ı do imagine that he at least feels better after the meeting) 

Im also kind of confused by my meeting Lor... ı mean ı was mainly focused on entering romance route with him until ı realize he was in pretty emotional situation.. (ı still nailed the romance route but his acts were... hmmm not normal?) seeing him being nostalgic and him suddenly crying without any reason (even ıf there is one both Lor and I are not aware of it much :') ) ıt made me feel bad for him but also couldnt help but panic... because ı remember what happened to him in side game (when ı stood by queens side) and ı also read somewhere that mentally unstable people might cry without even knowing why so ı was like noooooo ;w; but then also thought 2 different approaches to this matter.. firstly the thing he said before crying like how he told me that he wanna be like me so ı thought perhaps his wish for being special or being loved is still lingering in his heart or perhaps he is still weighted by his past mistakes that he wishes to become someone who does great things so he can finally forgive himself? but he also said he is no longer sad??? ım confuseeed ;w; second possibility is that perhaps when he said he told me what he wished to tell me he was actually .... lying? or like there was another feeling even he wasnt aware of because of all those events happening and he didnt noticed? ( ım also assuming this because of how ''water mage'' feels in Deita route...) (small edit: ahem ı guess ı kinda exaggerated while writing this part of writing hehe ı mean the unstable part but ı think second approach plus him thinking there is no way for him to be with me is the actual main reason now ^^;; ım not so sure tho)

sooo in the end ı think ı finished everything ı can do so far? and ım soo glaad for this new update although ending was a cliffhanger. ;-; soo lets talk about the bugs ı have found!

I encountered 2 bugs while talking to Katnir in bonding level 5 and they happened like one after another (not exactly but close) ıdk ıf ıt was same bug happening over and over but ı god their ''marking''??? to my notes! ı also find small mistakes (?) while chatting with others soo here is what ı have found so far: 


Katnir Chat bug 1 it happened around when he was saying these

 

and this is how it looked when ı clicked ''ignore'' ıt vanished tho






I will share the mark down of this in replies because ıts soooo long (edit: ı couldnt because they are so long :') how do ı share those bugs???)

second one was around here is same meeting ı will also use another reply comment to send the codes (edit: failed again they are too looong ;-;)


and here is the small detailllsss :3 

firstly Beileph says same thing 2 times in his first meeting (ı think ıt was first  one)




and the other one was when ı finished my meeting with Beisel in bond level 5 ıt only said ı gained respect ı didnt took screenshoot of it but ı guess ıts fine


Overall thank you for your alll hardwork ıt was exciting update ı hope the next mission will also have a good end x3 ı will do my best for it. I also hope everything is going alright for you since many things were happened in update 5. Thank you again for you amazing game! hope you a nice day :3

Hi JustaOneGirl,

I look forward to reading your thoughts on these updates so thank you again very much for sharing! I'm always looking at the characters and events as the creator, so it's always really fun and interesting to learn about your perspective. Sorry for the bugs! Ack, I think I focused on testing the war more than the convos as you'd think that would be pretty standard by now from a programming POV haha. Still prone to little mistakes and typos apparently. I thought I had checked/played through all of the update content but I guess I forgot to check all the dialogue options. Thank you for finding these bugs/errors! I will definitely fix them by the next build. Also I am doing well, thank you so much for your well wishes. This month's earlier release is a good indication that my life is back on track haha! <3
