A lot of bad shit has happened in world history "for the greater good". I don't think that's even remotely an excuse for how they torture and "reward" success among their own people. That just sounds like an excuse for being evil. So the cult's goals notwithstanding, they are pieces of garbage for doing what they do (minus the hunting of evil artefacts, obviously).
thats exactly why I brought up the Gray Knights every Guard regiment that helps them gets somehow lost, its not a great thing for them to do by any margin, but the price if they didn't would be sooooo much worse. And in this game the Alignment is a real event that did happen not that long ago, so I'm pretty sure every person that isnt living in the woods far of any civilization knows that the thread of Undead in any form is real.

Yep. And that was kind of my point as well. There was mentioned about her final destiny, and I was just saying that anyone who doesn't want to rescue Eshe from that cult is effectively rubber-stamping their methods. Just an opinion, but it's how I see it.
explaining why they do it isnt the same as excusing it. In MCs position i would do my damnest to save her even if i had no interest in her. But the MC is not a common man he is the Archmage of the north and has the help of at least 6 other spellcasters, he is also specialized in killing necromancers and finding their corruption. That is nothing normal folk can mobilize just because. In that regard he has probably more magic resources than Eshe's order and a few similar combined. So saving them is probably not feasible for the order or they would do it. Rites like that normally dont get created without the necessity for them.

Also most other members probably wouldn't want saving in the first place.

folks in the world of this game who think liches or similar are just myths to scare kids or whatever.

Believing there is a real danger doesn't justify torturous child-abuse training or treating people like discardable assets.
It kinda does if the threat is real, you dont have a "normal" live when, they get eaten by zombies next year. I dont say its cool, but in that world its necessary.

Hard disagree on practically all of your points. Let's just leave it there.

Hello all!

So... rendering. I'm behind from where I want to be, but unfortunately with the set building that is unavoidable. So right now I'm not entirely certain if I can keep the usual schedule up for this update. On positives, the render times are relatively fast so, I might be able to catch up. But I expect it to take a few days longer than usual. Remains to be seen.

Writing, on the other hand, is in decent shape. I'm about half a page where I would want to be, so that's good overall. But writing is always the easy part, and I have a buffer, so it isn't that bad.

I was struggling a bit with what I would show here. At the same time, everything is kind of a spoiler, but also something that you know is going to happen anyway. But anyway. Magical figthts are kind of annoying to do, they can be flashy but at the same time rather dull since ultimately it is just two mages hurling spells and waiting the other to make a mistake. I can make it somewhat different by making both of the combatants to be slightly more aggressive, which I think the situation does warrant to a point. Anyway, will be interesting. And yes, he has a crown, and no it isn't that important. Anyway, luckily there is only one fight scene after this in this update... and if that is seen then things aren't going that well. Right... small break and back to rendering. You all have a great weekend!

I love the game but I really prefer the black cloak on the mc the red is getting old kinda makes the mc look like a bum
Huh. I guess I disagree. It reminds me more of a blood theme, and being a battle mage, I think it's fitting. IDK that I'd dislike a black outfit; I do think that would probably look decent. But I prefer the red he's got personally.

I agree with the battle mage part but the Mc is a Arc mage now I would keep the battle style color and swap it on the black cloak but idk it’s just my opinion

What is the difference between this and the original version?
IIRC, patches pretty much are language corrections / improvements. There isn't incest, loli / shota, or more extreme content in the game, so I don't believe it's anything more than grammar and language fixes.
