Right, new day, new scene hunting. Finishing gathering the last of the companions before doing too many quests to see if they get referenced at all (Spoilers, they don't). Something I wish I had done was take note of who wrote the scenes that referenced Cait, I think they were fairly mixed but it would be interesting.
Also, side note, as I’m replaying ALL the content (save Kiyoko, and corruption as I want to make this my new main save) I’m noticing more things that are disturbing in hind sight. For instance, the cloister quest where you get a relic from the cultists? I didn’t notice that the relic is a weapon for mercy killing Sorra’s victims (it’s a spear used to kill people who’s souls were eaten by wraiths but didn’t die.) So instead of Sorra… you know… giving them their souls back in some form which is something they canonically can do so long as there’s enough soul left (see Mallach v Kas scene in slut temple) she has her worshippers murder them…
Also, the number of sidequests that could be solved with TF items is getting on my nerves, so far I’ve had; Ryn’s cage, female paladin that needed a ritual, Shar’s broken wings, Valencia’s wings/tail, Elyon’s eyes/clawhands, the centaur in the village who became corrupt because she wasn’t pretty enough. I’m not going to keep a counter on this but it’s still annoying.
Right onto the Cait stuff, still haven’t recruited or talked to her once:
At this point all I’ve done all of Harvest valley (save resuing Cait’s dad which I cannot do, that tile doesn't activate if she is not in your party) and all the Frostwood/Winter city. I think these Cait pop-ups are getting rarer the later the content gets. Now I still have all of Khorminos, Winter Wolf, and a whole load of small side content (I’ve not spent much time with the Orcs, or Evergreen’s girls.)
My main problem is realizing how pointless all the sex in the game is, I know that sounds dumb but follow with me. Very few of the characters with sex-scenes matter. Even more complex ones like Rags are pointless in the story, you have to go out of your way to repeat them (and it is repeating, not new content) and they don’t react to anything going on. Save the one-off pregnancy characters, and Kiyoko’s changing bust, having kids is just increasing a number, and the marriage characters are static after marriage.
I hope the Quinn dating that’s been teased and Brihaus will solve this, because it would be great if the more ‘complicated’ romances from these throwaway NPCs were applied to party members who persist with you through the game. How much better would it be if Ragnild was your orc companion? That you pick her up instead of Arona (who should be busy ruling) and her romance content came out during adventuring. Instead of saying "Right, I want to do the orc content, so I'm going to spam their tiles over and over" it would be part of just playing the game normally.
Anyway, I guess replaying this game makes me melancholy these days, tomorrow Khor Minos, Berwyn’s banishment, and maybe hunting down some fun sidecontent.
