Nah what’s the point of an horse?
The map isn’t that big in fact ASWS has very concentrated maps, adding an horse will just make you go faster I guess.
Because Kirlic and Monastery are far away enough to justify the use of our stallion instead of constantly going there with Mira and Ali. You won't travel with your horse through darkwood forest, because it's too dense and narrow. So no fast travel via horse to Rumah, Calan's Rest or Orcish stronghold. But having an option to go to Kirlic and Monastery or Frontline by road and back to Arenfield withing few hours instead of days by using a horse we bought? Yes, please.

It's still far enough to be a one day trip by horse as Ophilia confirmed... than you need to let the horse rest for a day or it will be dead before you are home.
If anything the trip to the monastery seems far to fast Claire indicated that if you make haste you'd reach the old Boars inn at best within a day useing a cart (well atleast dureing daylight and a bit of time before sunset)

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

An horse can work only if there are vast lands of green pastures, hills with flowers, fences to jump and places to discover and gather treasures.
You can dismount the horse and kill enemies and open chests, mount the horse and jump over difficult obstacles.
Very cool mechanic for ASWS right?
Yeah that’s not gonna happen, you are free to install it in your game tho.

How much bigger :BootyTime:

Ophelia is the only ride needed

Actually Divinity 2 had one aswell... riding a horse would increase travel speed, carriage limit, HP and would allow to use charge attacks against enemies on the world map... though you had to let those horses go each time you entered a town or Dungeon.

And lets not forget about the most classic horse... Epona.
I mean you can also strap a girl under the sattle and get some beasiality... though that's even less likely to happen with Patreon around the corner
Ophelia is the only ride needed
but...but... she is the one riding MC...
I've been doing that paying him 1 gold per set every three days past two weeks in game? walked up to mercs in camp... no option to upgrde them?
Interact with the strategic map and choose the main Camp (can only Upgrade Mercs in the Camp and no other location)

Chyos once said that Kirlic should be the last city and Varron or Parakis will have either a small preview but that’s it; everything else for the sequel
Given the size of the game as is right now I doubt the engine would support any more locations... I mean I wished we could get a chance to travel to that tortuga island with their tanned girls but with the war going on I doubt we could charter any ships to that southern island

nostalgia of happier days activated.
Yeah I was clearly thinking of Tloz Oot when talking about the horse, but it should be done in a much smaller scale.
Still it won‘t happen… but the Divinity series is still good
but...but... she is the one riding MC...
Sacrifices must be made for traveling

Pia said one day. But she is... was a travel merchant. Horse was pulling a cart with wares. That ain't riding a horse.
Claire was assuming a cart might reach inn by evening. But I'm taking what she is talking with a grain of salt, because she isn't traveling between Arenfield and Kirlic. Also we can reach monastery, which is far behind the inn, in a cart, by evening.

But if we really have to talk about "travel time" and "resting" then explain to me how MC can easily travel, by foot, from Arenfield to Calan's Rest, then travel to mercenary camp, then to Rumah, then to mine in Arenfield's passage, from there to hunting grounds and from there to swamps and back to Arenfield within a day if not half of it.

I don't think there is really need to push for unecessary realism in something so simple like fast travel via horse between major locations for immersion purposes instead of just... teleporting there.

Yeah, let's turn ASS into fucking mix of Elden Ring, RDR2 and Wicher and Zelda horse combat simulator. Oh... We should also have new abilites when on horse back. But to hell with horses! We should be capable of taming that Ogre and use him both as mount and part of the group!

I guess having a immersive fast travel option without having to tag along half of Arenfield with you is too much to wish for.

Engine ain't the problem. She can handle it alright. Problem is... in the core gameplay. ASS is complex game. A porn game with branching. Thus new locations as villages and cities doesn't mean just new maps and few quests, but also characters of which female ones are fuckable by local population and MC and evey single scene for it. That just too much work for a single person.

Just look at current ASS Arenfield, how much content is there, think about how long Chyos was working on it and then multiply it by ten, because that's, probably, how long it would take for him to create Parakis with the same level of dedication.

See guys? This dude gets right game development, we have a future developer right her! … Or a conman.

Sadly it will be just a dream, but driving through enemies with the horse and stomping them is always my dream

Claire already travelled that road once and Pia twice a week... even if neither took a horse they can upscale the speed of your avarage horse and a strong one drawing a car... MCs horse is for transporting of heavy goods rather than an express deliverie one for military reports

Because those locations are much clooser than the monastery or Kirlic... MC said he could walk to Kirlic in 3-4 days but the girls had other plans.
That aside the game doesn't have Stamina... otherwise MC couldn't fight against all Orcs in Callan's Rest at once
