Here's my mini review of the update:
I thought all the stuff in the town was pretty bad. Humans are the least interesting part of the game, and the writing here seemed worse than normal. It also looked like it was full of unfinished placeholder assets - reusing one of the npc human townspeople portraits, the two recoloured thug portraits, and just straight up using the brown purple orc hands for their groping mini-scenes instead of taking a moment to fix that. If you told me that this had been put together at extremely short notice I would believe you.
The stuff in the orc camp was much better, it reminded me of one of the older updates before things started branching out all over the map. We've finally gotten back to the tents and the status quo has actually changed a little bit. I mostly liked the scenes, even if the repeating art still doesn't look great.
Also adding a quest log is great, the game has desperately needed this for a long time. If this had come out in a resonable update time I'd probably give it a 5/10.
