Hey all, sorry for longer silence than usual, just not much new that can be shared, feels a bit silly to just share the same general info every week. But here's where we're at.
The previous build is in the hands of the testers. At the moment I told them the next build should be our last. After I get that to them we'll make sure any gamebreakers or atrocious renders are fixed and then we'll be ready to release.
The original release version will be complete but there will be some minor changes that I'll have to update in a future patch. Folks who've been in art streams already know this, but Davis got a bit of a makeover this update, the time it would take to touch up his renders from previous updates will take more time than it's worth atm, so that'll be something that'll be adjusted in the future as time allows. While the lack of continuity is a tad annoying I figure folks would rather get the release than wait on that., we can just pretend it's a change in Valentine's perception of him or something until then.
That's really all I can share that's new or exciting. I'll be pretty quiet for a bit, but when the next build is sent out I'll pop on and let y'all know, should have a specific day for release as well. This is a big AVN month, and we're all trying our best to work around schedules. Especially those of us who share testers. I really appreciate your patience, and am thrilled to be wrapping this up.

Sláinte!

A makeover for Davis? Wow, that character sure is getting a lot of attention for someone who's supposed to be dead, or at least that everyone in-universe thinks has given up the ghost. However, I do sense that most readers at least suspect that there's a bit more to his story than they've been led to believe. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if this new model/render was used for something other than flashbacks in this upcoming chapter or the next.

A most likely outcome is that later on it will be revealed he didnt really died and survived. Anyways, they need the character alive for the next game to be about him, like the last one was about the writer guy.

Are you certain about that? I thought friend #3 was Chris (seen in The Author).

I sure fucking hope not

The Fixer could also be set before Davis's death filling in the blanks leading up to the death. Then at the end of The Fixer it could be revealed that he actually faked his death so that he could take his harem and piles of money and then ride off into the sunset where none of his enemies could find him.

Chris the childhood girlfriend? Doub it, she's one of the main lis in The Author.

I was just going off the way it was presented in the game intro when you start a fresh one. It's presented in such a way that the core three seem to be the Author, Chris, and MC of Unbroken.

 

[Walter Victor]

This is interesting, though.

I went back through The Author, and found out that Knight (the MC of that game), Valentine (the MC of this game) and Davis were the three buddies who enlisted at the same time...

I am beginning to (reluctantly) believe that Davis might actually be the MC of the next game. The developer is going to have to do a major rehabilitation of Davis for me to stomach him as an MC, though!

Now, I also believe that the next game is supposed to take place in Ireland and how the hell Davis would wind up in Ireland is beyond me.

small correction, Knight didn't enlist, it was just Valentine and Davis.
As for the Ireland question... it's next to England so it's not that big of a leap (literally)

Yep. I believe the next game is supposed to be called STWA: The Fixer. Davis will be the MC.

Davis Body was confirmed by Vi, and i always assumed that the Davis and Zaina that appeared to MC were their spirits alongside the PTSD that Mc suffers from. If he somehow appeared alive after all that time, it would cheapen all the early writing and conflict, it would also open plot holes and whatnot.

wrong, Vi confirmed that the body the authorities found wasn't his, they misidentified him. So he could theoretically be still alive.

If you go on the game's discord, there's a section with spoilers. I'm 99,99% sure I saw the dev posting that

Not necessarily. I mean we know the story from Valentine pov but was all David's fault?
Like imagine if Elspeth was the one calling the shots in the OP in which Carl's gf died.

Think the only thing we know about part 3 is that Meabh (family lawyer from part 1) and her twin daughters (no incest) are gonna be in it.
