Hello all!
Ufff... interesting weekend. I’m not exactly where I want to be, simply because one scene took a bit too long to render. But it happens, and overall I’m happy with the progress despite the long render times... and some posing issues. Still, I’m around 300 renders... and a lot left. Although considering the render speed right now, I should catch up fairly easily overall.
Writing... I’ll start writing the third update tonight and see how that goes. My only issue is that I have too much to write, that’s a positive thing. I need to remind myself not to over do the writing but keep it sensible so I can ensure a day or two off between updates. Which I mostly write but it is still a day off for me since I would write most likely anyway.
And new face. Kind of literally. Need to see in what I can actually post going forward as "in game progress", after the next scene things... might not be that suitable for public posting. For various reasons. None of these are really spoiler heavy, That stuff was in the early parts of the epilogue... for most parts.
I don’t normally do "seasonal" renders as is, well except around Christmas the pinups of project I’m doing or something. This however? Well the environment was released today. It was from one of the artists that is on the "buy this stuff now"-list. Then one thing let to other and... yeah. Bruce heard that some house slighted his new best friends kids while trick or treating so he decided to play his own trick and brought a friends with him. Yes that’s the headless horseman, normally anyway. Yeah... one of those things. Poor Sebastian trying to figure out how to explain that mess. Anyway, short break and back to rendering I go!

"What the hell Bruce. Just because they're too cheap to get the full size bars, doesn't mean you should bring him out with you."

Hello all!
Bleh, I’m getting my second cold this year, but it’s about time for it. Anyway. What’s up? Rendering is going, not much to say about it. I’m somewhere around 500 renders, minus fixes, so I’d say it is going alright. And obviously, there is still a lot to do. I wouldn’t be too surprised it is somewhere around 3000 renders when all is done. The Android build is going to be... interesting to make.
Writing, on the other hand, is in a good place. Although the usual thing that amuses me happened again. I know the beginning and the end; what is in between forms while writing. Things that I didn’t think intertwined end up being intertwined without conscious choice, and it makes sense. It’s going to be... interesting to see how it unfolds towards the end. Right, unfortunately, current renders aren’t suitable for public posts, thus... couple concepts and tests.
This... this is what I always say: the characters know what they know. And what they know they can believe to be the truth. This goes for all the VNs I’ve made so far, and it will be so in Sorcerer 2. Several characters have stated that you can’t trust vampires, or demons for that matter. Are they right or wrong? That one isn’t easy to answer. Generally speaking, they are correct; neither of them should be trusted as is. And yet there are those like Tamara. She is ruthless, and most people would say evil. She kills without remorse or regret and feeds on the souls of mortals. And yet, the other side of the coin is when she is with the MC. Certain tenderness can be seen. Or Naha the Incubus, he is a demon, and yet the scene in Sorcerer 2 with Jacob told a different story. So, in the end... the judgment whether you trust one or not is in your hands.
And then this. This I did for fun. It’s been somewhat stressful week. Nothing bad, just getting a cold makes me sluggish, and that makes me think that I’m not on schedule, which in turn makes me stress without a reason. Eh, anyway. I forgot the pink scooter on Monday’s render, so this came from that thought. Right. You all have a great weekend! I’ll go make some tea, take a break, and then continue to render and write.

I prefer the old saying, "Never Deal with a Dragon, Never Trust an Elf, And Choose your Enemies Carefully."
In another setting "Vampires are people too!" - People cant be trusted...
I read too much... Third Setting "Demons and Angels are no different, they are both evil unless they want to be otherwise."
Forth.. Damnit I was going to click post... "Bad is Good Baby, Down with Government!" from an American cartoon I believe.

I'm always sort of been a fan of "generalise the groups, but make individuals unique." Vampires as a group in Shattered Seals are evil. They prey on the living, feed on them, and capture and torture them. Treat them as livestock, which they are to vampires, really. Try to wield power in the shadows so things would go their way, etc. But then come the individuals, some makes the biggest sociopathic murderer look like an amateur of what they do. Some? They like to tend their roses in their garden, to be left alone from the machinations of everyone. They still drink blood, but it is "voluntary" given; servants, lovers and whatnot can be willingly fed on. Or they buy it from a "blood bank".
I think this would depend on the god they serve, in the case of angels, anyway. Granted, I use that term more of a catch-all term for all the divine servants. I'm not sure I would call any servant of the gods of war "benevolent", but points of view and all that.

Because Bruce is comfortable with their masculinity, to choose what they really desire as their ride.Why Bruce? Why? Was a Harley not available?

Or that's what drove by when he needed the ride ...Because Bruce is comfortable with their masculinity, to choose what they really desire as their ride.
Hi DarkAssassin, why not make a multimod port of this one as well? The original Android Ports don't have a secondary save storage and android doesn't really allow putting/copying any files in Android/Data anymore...i have already switched to your ports for most of the avns. Couldn't find this one on your site.
And because i tired to mess with its data folder, original ports aren't even opening anymore for me.

Mine are in Documents/Renpy_saves/com.talothral.toam at least on my android 14 phone and android 12 tablet, can't say anything for newer ones.
