Riding to war in a robot horse that can turn into a flying vehicle while wielding a lightsaber that can turn into a laser gun wouldn't be that dumb
That's true but normal horses and weapons don't feature those gadgets yet so we will have to waaaaaaaait. :coffee:


Each Era will have a "way of life"

Bronze Age: A solitary hunter
Medieval Age: A powerful general
and so on
Gooood, I can feel your ideas. They give you FOCUS!

Exactly.

This way I can build the world and adapt the character and gameplay towards to what I want for the protagonist.

Ex: Aeolos has to hunt and fish like a hunter to keep his diet and body strong.

This won't be necessary for the protagonist of the second game, that will have access to good food in the army, specially when he rises through the ranks.

So, obviously, I'll have to develop new ways for him to become stronger.

Calling tutors, philosophers and teachers from around the world to give him a boost at something.
A way of life completely different from Aeolos.

Each Era will remake itself to keep things new and interesting. :)

Huh, but won't the future heroes be weaker then if they have easier access to food and water or will they always face a hard training to be on the same physical and mental level as Aeolos was?

Nope. Constant access to food and water would make them even more powerful since they could push themselves more in training and not having to worry about being starved or something like that.

For comparison, look at the pictures of modern day US soldiers and their WWII predecessors.

Just wait a few decades until the story reaches the space age, and we'll see Zion's skill with science fiction settings.
I am sure it will be amazing. No doubt there would be an epic plottwist by the time we get to the year in the opening as all as boss refights with the past succubi who will have regenerated by then.

The avarage person will be but the hunters be well trained as well as having access to better technology such as supplements and eventually cybernetics. The main thing a succubus hunter will need to train will be their willpower.

While it is true that modern Aeolos descendants won't be as strong as him due to his hardships making him more resourceful and physically stronger, the modern hunters will have access to a much more specialized training and advanced technology.

They will have martial arts, intense gym training, guns, medical assistance, medical chemicals, tech advancements such as modern armor and so much more.

The tech will make up for whatever Aeolos had, and they too will have their own modern challenges, as succubi by then will adapted to the new modern world, where they will hunt in the shadows, instead of attacking in the open as they do now.

Nice, good to know you just wont repeat the same stuff again and again but instead adjust things to the current era and technology available.

I'm still worried about the PCs appearance options we will get in the next era (yeah sorry, it's very far away but I can't help myself X3) and how the artworks are forced to go a middle way since you can't ask V to provide artwork for every possible option we picked. I would prefer to have a default one, like Aeolos, all the time. :/

I truly don't know how I'll go with that yet, I was thinking about giving your appearance based on your class.
Your armor style evolving by based on your class.

I'm ok with different armor types based on character class but not so much on face and body appearances. Oh well, there's still a bit of time left until you reach that point. :p

Face and body appearance will probably be the same and might evolve as well.

The prologue gameplay is irritating, you can't save and most times you try to save, even in beds, the menu open as LOAD MENU to LOAD SAVES not to save, please solve this as fast as possible, without being able to save is ok but when the menu opens is load menu, please fix, thank you. I literally dropped the game because of this bug, please warn if you'll solve, them I might give another try.

It's a known bug, just play the game without saving or save little as possible, and later when you end the prologue start a new game, but this time skip the intro.
The intro ends when you are adult and you are going to a new land on a boat, here ends the prologue.

I already fixed and it will come in the next build. If you skip the prologue, it will allow you to save normally.

My suggestion is: Play it until the end of the prologue (when you reach the beach) then start a new game skipping the prologue.

We changed the saving plugin to make it more robust and this bug I didn't anticipated.

I had a feeling from the very start that your work was heavily influenced by the Dragon Age universe setting. It feels even in the music like main menu theme or first forest exploration\leaf clan cutscenes theme. And in some of the designs, the story elements. And in overall crapsack fantasy world trope.

A quick question for Lore keeper Zion: a succubus in this universe can drain thru the "main and back-entrance", with tails, with the mouth... Can they drain a person with a kiss for example? or does the target need to be a dick?

As always, absolutely love the game, both covenant and warlock saga, great stuff! :devilish: I hope we will get to meet some of the warlock saga pet-demons again in covenant at some point :geek:

Funny, while I do love dragon age series, it was not the inspiration for SC.

Mostly it was castlevania, diablo and assassin's creed for the world, and japanese games for the interactions between characters.
+ a few settings that I particularly love, like ancient Greece.

Depends. A royal succubus could drain a soul with a kiss, but he won't get mummified, like with the other succubi draining him with their holes.

The ones that do that are the Jiangshi, they literally drain your KI, or energy, reducing you to a dry husk. The first one will appear in the comic.

Sorry for my english.
Your game is always impressive. the characters are always endearing and it was interesting to know about Redwinter's past.
Will there be a sequel after fighting the Duchess? Will we see the Imp or the redhood succubus again?
While waiting for the sequel I found bugs on both paths.

[SPOIL] When Klemes tries to save us during the escape against the duchess he gives the original name of the hero (Aeolos) while I changed his name.

Wrong name.png

The trigger zone does not work if we pass like that.

Is it only me that has this bug:
[SPOILERS]
during Klemex training (making the way with the witch hunters)

- Still the problem of the witch in the gallery

Hey, just downloaded the game and it is amazing, but I got stuck at the battle with "Parafrosini". None of my attacks seem to damage her. Is there any missing point, do I need to get something first, or it is the end the playable game?
