Artemis DevLog - CH5
Good morning!
Popping in for a quick check-in. Informed that beta team they'll be receiving the next build tonight. I had hoped to find a composer for CH5 that I could build a long-term relationship to provide music and really invest their talent into Artemis. It's been a struggle as they mostly just want to get paid and move onto the next thing. Not wanting to really sit down and understand the story they're creating music for. That said, I'm still on the hunt, but have also secured a great music library that will cover the soundtrack for this chapter. So with sound effects and music secured, the sound department is looking great for CH5. I obviously have zero time to spare this dev cycle, but DJ Kink's Studio should return with Chapter 6 release.
Keeping this one short as I dash back into the basement to continue tightening bolts up for this release.
Thank you everyone for the support last week. Sometimes you get lost in your work and need to remind yourself that you can't fight time and it'll continue ticking its way forward. I'm still working as diligently as before but without the stress of that looming cloud that is last year's release date.
Thanks again and hope everyone is enjoying the shift in weather and looking forward to spooky season!

Have to say I adore this game, but after finally getting to see VI's tits fully in action... kind of disappointed. Weight center seems too high so they look fake and nipples are too small. Also I felt creepy taking the sex scene at that time, had to reload and just kiss her good night. Still nobody topping Amrit.

Hey there everybody, Above are some of the customs I had to catch up on, most folks on Discord have already seen them, but I wanted to pop them up here for those who aren't on that platform.
Anyway it's been a nice productive week. Added another 6,000 words of script. That wasn't my primary focus though. Much of the past week was as mentioned in our last update focused on getting all the groundwork and setup needed to get the update started. At the moment I have all new characters built and ready to go, as well as almost all the new sets. The last set I'm working on will be used rather a lot throughout the rest of the game, so it's getting a little extra love. Also all the new props are set up, I have a decent sized batch of props that will need to be custom made, hoping on Friday I'll be able to sit down and see how complicated to make they'll actually be, though I think most of them should be easy enough.
That's most of what went down since I last posted. Gonna spend the rest of the week wrapping up my groundwork and by next update I should be posing.
That's it for today, thanks as always for the support and I hope you have a lovely rest of your week.
Sláinte!

Has anyone heard from Scrappy? Is he on hiatus or is he done with f95?
Still coming to visit here regularly just to check if he already updated his mod for the game.

Yes, I did. Thank you.
I'm mainly after the gallery feature of scrappy's mod, you know, I like to revisit scenes after the story.
Aight, thanks again. Cheers
Man, I love how well the dev manages to include sad story bits with fun and "fun" parts.
It's easy to understand why MC hated Vi's brother, and at the same time, why he's so lost.
It also kind of makes running only 1 girl route (Els especially) really good. Going for only 1 girl, then just being a friend with others just feels...good. It doesn't feel like a punishment. Girls are still there, they still interact with both MC and others, they're just not love interests.
After both Author and this game, I can definitely say STWADev is my favorite dev so far. 1 game completed, another seems to be progressing at good pace and going towards ending eventually (instead of 20 filler arcs or 10 seasons or 3 years of remakes of first chapter).
Wouldn't call either VN as my favorite on the site, but altogether, quality of renders, writing and progress definitely make it best.
Granted, that doesn't mean I'm not running a save where MC is exactly what his ex described him as, running after anything that walks.
Top notch all around.

Playing through this game after having finished "The Author"... I'm having a hard time to connect to the MC.
It doesn't help that we only get to know what makes the MC tick through sparse flashbacks and other people telling the MC how they see him. In story-heavy games like this, I try to crawl in the MC's skin and make choices based on what I learned about him. All was fine, until Elspeth's pool heart-to-heart.
She changed the MC from a chill guy who loves self-deprecating humor, to someone haunted by his own demons, and too afraid to face them. While it was clear from the start that the MC struggles with trauma, I thought he was working through it in his own pace. Valentine is good with the ladies. He's not afraid of commitment, or he never would've started training Amrit or co-found The Centre.
In real life, I absolutely hate people who take what they know of you, and use it against you. Elspeth is like this. In this playthrough I've been open with her, but she remains closed off and playing games. At the pool, I wanted to (be able to) tell her to fuck off. She doesn't get to hold Valentine's trauma over him. She has blood on her hands, and she's helping people because she thinks this will absolve her. Before telling Valentine what to do, she should face her own demons. Or, at least, be as open with Valentine as she wants him to be. It doesn't seem to me that Valentine is hurting by what he chose to do during his enlistment. Instead, he's hurting from Davis' actions and betrayal, which likely forced his hand. (Though at the start of chapter 6, we STILL don't know what that is exactly.)
However, Elspeth, as a pacifist is haunted by the blood on her hands. She's projecting this on Valentine (murderer).
I kinda hate her. Ever since that talk, I've been pushing people away and declined all romantic advances, except for Kana. Why Kana? She's a safe choice because she doesn't have any history with Valentine. Everyone else knows more about Valentine than the player does. Vi manipulates/blackmails Valentine into taking her to Sheffield. Why couldn't she take 'no' for an answer, and more importantly, respect him and his choice to not want his birthday to be known?
/rant, I guess.

This is kinda funny because you’re roleplaying a “damaged” Valentine perfectly. Push everyone away who gets too close. Go for the easy ones who don’t know the real Valentine… yet. Rinse and repeat.
I thought the discussion at the pool was brilliant. Els sees through your bs and tries to talk to the “real” Valentine. Not using it against you. She is in the same boat.

The MC isn't afraid of a romantic commitment, he is incapable of it, because he still can't let go of Zaina. He even says as much when he and Alistar step outside to discuss Vi and Ines staying with them for good. The MC can't even have someone say her name out loud without falling apart, so that needs to be resolved first for the MC to enter a new commited relationship; he can't start something new with a Ghost still hovering over him.
As for Els, I always knew that something is seriously wrong with her, just not what exactly. Part 6 helped a lot in honing in on what exactly that is though.
We get the first "warning" when Els and the MC go to the movies and the MC has a conversation with Zaina, who is obviously dead, so he is really talking to his subconscious.
"She's perfect, or that's what she wants people to see." and then the one word that kinda sets the tone as far as Els is concerned "Dangerous.". The MC with his military background calling her dangerous always stuck with me, but I never could put it together.
I thought we need to know what trauma Els has suffered to really get a grip on her, but during part 6 it all started to make sense. She isn't reliving some trauma when we see her covered in blood, she is fantasizing, drawn back to the memory of violence.
We've all been out with buddies and some other dudes gave you some looks and everyone knew, one wrong word and shit will go down. The only way it becomes unavoidable by default, is if any girl/woman opens her mouth, then there is literally no way a bunch of intoxicated guys will back down and the situation resolves peacefully. So Els, while standing next to the undefeated Light Heavyweight and Heavyweight contender, decides to take the lead and makes 100% sure the fight is gonna happen and then later even admits that it felt really good.
Then of course the bite while kissing, a bit too on the nose but maybe the developer wanted to check how many players will look past El's visuals to see the monster lurking below; she "just" wanted to taste his blood.
The whole pacifist shtick is not because she can't stand violence, her entire backstory contradicts that on multiple counts, it's because she's afraid that she loses control of herself when she is near violence. During the MC's fight, she doesn't give a single word of encouragement or motivation, instead the only time she opens her mouth is when she comments on the opponents injuries, that's where her attention is at.
Her deepest fear is losing control, so whenever that happens, like flying on an airplace, the new staff changing things at the center or a meeting with her dad, the face she puts on starts to crumble and she panics and starts to fantasize about her violent memories.
I never understood why Els first said to Alistair and then to Vi that she believes the MC is the only one that could "really understand her", but now that makes a lot more sense. She knows the MC has killed many people, was in several near-death situations, and has seen the darkest side of humanity. Els believes that she is so broken, that it takes someone with the MC's experiences, to not run away and be disgusted when she tells him the truth.
I have no doubt that there will be an Els ending, but I really wonder if there will be an Els happy ending or if the developer has some really fucked up shit in his mind.

If she's indeed behind the "hack", then I hope we'll get the option to tell her to fuck off.
That's a distinction without a difference. The point is, she isn't reciprocating. My MC has been open and honest with her, she's been nothing but evasive. She makes the MC work for her trust, but doesn't give any in return.
If someone with trauma isn't ready to open up, then forcing them just damages them more.
McNab knows the MC and his military trauma. Vi knows about MC's past (her scars), by extension Ines does as well. Amrit knows quite a bit as well. Els might know of Valentine, but from the start of the game it didn't appear like they had a close bond. More like a working relationship. Vi doesn't really push the MC towards getting help, since she's been the one needing his support. Also, Vi propositioning MC after saying "Happy Birthday" reminded me how clueless she really is. Kana is really the only one who lets Valentine be Valentine.
I don't agree that Els is ahead of Valentine in recovery. She has hallucinations where she sees herself being bloodied. While Valentine puts up walls through humor and self-deprication, her walls are secrecy and not allowing people to get to know the real her. Because, god forbid, someone might do what she does, and use her actions/experiences against her.
Right, and that's what I have to do, because the story doesn't let me express that in any other way. I've been giving Els the cold shoulder, but sadly the game doesn't register that. Instead, the one-sided heart-to-heart had Valentine do a 180. Except, my Valentine did say he wanted something more long-term with Kana, he's not using her to run away. Of course, I still don't know why MC became a player and decided months ago to stop sleeping around, so I don't know if this actually fits.
Though this last point is probably my main criticism of the game. I actually think I'd enjoy this story more if it didn't have choices, so STWA could just tell Valentine's story, including his inner monologue. Having the choices and not the knowledge just makes the experience frustrating, because the inner monologue and interpretation is left up to the player. Again, interpretation without knowing the full context.
She does see through him, and the way she went about it is wrong. Yes, it was important that she called him out, but getting naked came across as manipulative. The kiss was even worse timing. It turned what could've been a confrontation for the benefit of Valentine into her seducing him. What's the message here? Should Valentine "heal", so he can get in her pants?
"I kissed you because I desired a kiss."
"I entice you to come to group because I think you need it."
This is bullshit. Her asking Valentine to go to group would've been more effective as the aftermath of a yelling match, emotions laid bare. Not her coming on to him, and changing the tone of the confrontation.

(Replying to a post that appeared after I posted my earlier reply, I'm not sure if I should merge this with that reply or not)
Would've been good to know before any relationship talk happened in the game. I'm slowly piecing together the importance of Zaina, I'm just now at the flashback with the ring. But, I already told Kana that she'd be the only one and that I want to commit when she's ready.
I think I picked this up a bit earlier. Els' flashbacks where she sees herself bloodied were a strong hint. She wasn't pushing papers during her service. I'm sure the intelligence she handled killed a lot of people, even by proxy.
I'm going to stop reading your comment and will come back to it after I finished Chapter 6. xD
