dislike the new sword quest when (even if you have 0 corruption) the sword stays corrupted once you keep it. I assume its us getting punished for daring to have a power fantasy of holding an omega powerful lore sword. Like I care about corruption so its going to stay this way.
Stay corrupted? You mean you got the corrupted version (by having "high" corruption) and then reduced your corruption level? The item isn't dynamic, you have what you get when you finish the quest (forever). With character 25+ corruption (but less than 50) I got the holy version (but then since I play a witch I chose to redo to get the ring).

No dice brother, you misunderstood what i said. I started at both 76 corruption then made another run at 0 and both stayed corrupted, so unless there is a missing check or my saves are bugged then im just shit out of luck
EDIT: where do you receive the ring btw, have no ring in my inventory giving the sword liaden so kinda confused

You must be save editing, the sword you get is based on personality, not corruption, save editing doesn't cause the personality changes.

Also, everyone shouldn't forget to take the gem from the new quest, gives you a new summon (that you can't use because it's level 7)

So about a year ago, maybe less than a year, you couldn't use the save editor and level up in your game. Did that get fixed, or was that just a 'me being incompetent and doing something incorrectly' problem?

I liked the new quest as well, was pretty decent. I really enjoyed the character development for Calise, and getting to intereact with her more. Too bad none of her interactions after the quest change at all, despite the fact the quest makes it seem like they really should have. Seems like adding this quest should have been held off until they could have added more with her as well, but obviously it's the only piece of actual content we got with this most recent update, so they rushed it.

As far as the Calise being Kasyrra argument goes, it seems a little too obvious right now, so I'm still not sure which side of the argument I land on. Her backstory, her attitude depending on Kas relationship, and the busts in the game files are pretty damning evidence, but again it seems a little too obvious and could definitely be a red herring. I'm leaning towards it being true, especially due to the new interactions in the quest and the way she acts, but would still be happy if it isn't. Because if she isn't that just means we get another decent character, also with a potential corruption path due to the busts.

But with the snail's pace the game as come to, we likely won't find out the truth for a while.
Do I have to do spoiler tags for theories?

-Anyway, when you ask Kassyrra about her past before she became a demon, it is almost identical to what Calise says for hers. (she was even a paladin/knight from memory.)
-You can also ask Kas to show you what she looked like before becoming a demon, but she says she'll leave it as a suprise for later (?)
-Talking to Kas in her dream palace thingy, you can discuss her redeeming herself eventually, this may be part of it?

**(correct me if I'm wrong with any of this)**

She basically tells you that her objective is for you to end up with a very 'powerful/experienced soul' (which she needs),
but that it doesn't matter how you get it, as long as that's the end result.
ie; if she has to wage the whole 'demon invasion' crap for you to oppose & come out on top, she'll do that - but it's only the end result that she's actually interested in (doesn't really give a shit about the 'invasion succeeding').

You can talk to her about possibly redeeming herself - and with the bad blood between her & the Cult...

-I can't seem to get it with my current save, but if you go the romance route with Kas in her dream palace, supposedly if you talk to Calise after that, she has different dialogue (giving you the hint that it's Kas? - not sure)
*Could someone let me know what it is - screenshots for normal Calise talk & post-Kas Calise talk?*

-The Calise busts in the game files - there are variants with Kas' demon-eyes, & a futa with the eyes as well.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

** My take is that Calise is Kas in disguise - just less 'obviously' than before. (She still has all the soldiers around her and is trying to keep up the ruse).
Her playing as Calise could be simply her having fun working with you rather than against you for a change for shits & giggles, but I'm assuming that she (hopefully) may be taking to heart that she doesn't need to continue her 'invasion' to reach her goal for your soul :rolleyes: (fighting the Cult would probably do the same thing) (or she needs some artifact from the area)

* I don't think that she will, but if I understood the conversation with Kas & a certain deity in Kas' 'dream palace', she could (in theory) help you clean up the whole 'invasion' + Cult as the 'Paladin Calise' by your side & still achieve her end-goal.

- I also wouldn't be suprised if she has been busy corrupting the King & nobles in the palace, much like she did in Winter City (something that was mentioned made me consider the possibility, but can't remember where/what)

Starting to ramble here will wind up.

*also forgot spoiler tag - so intentionally left out what she wants your soul for - someone else can fill that in if anyone's interested?*

*** I haven't done Calise's quest yet, will edit after ***
