Ren'Py Completed Void's Calling [Ep. 2 v1.2.10+ DLC] [Novel]

[TREXrg]

From Dev on Steam
6.4.24

Work on the story update continues, 512 renders are done, and 4 animations are prepared for rendering. Dialogue consists of roughly 12 thousand words.
Important Message:

After last week's news, a number of strange people started attacking us, claiming that we are scoundrels, and cheated everyone. That we promised to make the DLC update free, but in fact we will sell it for money.

Let me be clear:
- The update was promised to be free, and it will be.
- There was no mention in any news that the update would be sold for money.

I ask them, "Can I get some sort of quote of me that we are going to sell it?” Silence. What's going on in people's minds, I don't know. The news is written by the same person who writes the VC events. Yes, my text goes through proofreading, for errors, since I do happen to make a grammar mistake or two, but many events go almost unchanged straight into the game. I already have doubts about my competence as an author. While this is our initiative, we did not originally intend to do this update and did not promise it at all.

A small spoiler about the update. It will end with a "special event". Where we will bring together all the characters. The location will be Fiona's place.
It's been a difficult week, and I haven't been working much. I've had some personal problems, but things are back to normal now.

Dates:
Tentatively, I'm hoping in April to complete the most routine part, the dialogues and getting to the climactic scene of the update. How long the final scene will take until the end is not clear. It depends on the scale. As you realise, there is a lot to do there, if only there was a desire as well. Is there any? To be honest, not at all. So far, I'm doing it by forcing myself and cursing the decision to go forward with this. But sometimes in the process of work some excitement does appear.

That's all.
Thank you and take care.

1. I say that it will be better if You do not took her mask off. You will know why in part 2. And it leads to on of "better" endings...

2. Merchant, which merchant You are talking about?

3. I met Radna when exploring forest, after talking to autorities in the City... It is random meeting.

 

[jackalltheway]

i think it's the merchant the innkeeper tells you about, the one who's wife has been abducted, it's an ep 1 quest, part of the main quest line, i'll come back with a comm when i'll start it to give you more details. The thing is that after some time, doing side quests, the main quests i had, including the mercant one, vanished for no reason, i didn't finish them either, they just disappeared. Oh, and one more thing, do you meet Redna in ep 1 or 2?

I'm sure on 99% it was in part one. But in part 2 You will meet her too In a different cirmustances

Not working. nothing is happening

 

[jackalltheway]

Not working. nothing is happening

It's case sensitive, make sure to type in the correct order, ex: pc.dex = 100 or any number, also, i only tried it on ep 1

 

[jackalltheway]

In ep 2, when i tell Kilena i'm moving from the inn she comes to inspect the room, where i get to choose whether i have sex with her or not, if i choose to have sex with her she'll get mad and after that there's a message under the quest but it's in kirilic/russian and i don't understand it, can someone help?

 

[burbero]

Do you have the current mod?

 

[jackalltheway]

Do you have the current mod?

What mod? Please explain

 

[burbero]

What mod? Please explain

Cheat Mod or Multi mod

 

[jackalltheway]

Do you mean the one posted by jsbb on the main page?

 

[jackalltheway]

Cheat Mod or Multi mod

I don't use any cheat mod, i just don't understand which option is the best for Kilena

Should i have sex with Kilena before moving out of the inn or not, from what i understood from the russian message, it says that the story continues in the DLC. This happens only if i have sex with her, otherwise nothing changes.

 

[JustMy2Cents]

Any Advice or walktrough on the DLC? im not progressing in the Story for some reason after the quest ive been sent on

I planned to finish the main part by the end of April before I start working on the final event, and that's basically what happened. Some tweaks are still in progress, but the main scenes are already finished.
It's hard to estimate how long the final part will take, maybe I can finish it within a month, maybe a bit more. We also need to come up with endings for the characters and it's hard to say how many of them there will be. Probably 2-4.
This update will have about 20 000 words, which is about the same size as half of the DLC that was released



From time to time, I thought I could add Lilina's storyline as part of this update, but I finally gave up on that. To be honest, I feel like nobody but me and 10-20 people need this update. We get less and less feedback about our games, which makes me question the point of all this, but we’ve done too much to stop now, and it’s not in our nature.
So, in any case we will finish this update, but we will not expand it. Ilga, Kilena, Londa and Fiona. These are the characters that will receive additional content.
In general, it probably makes sense to expect a release in June. I will finish with VC and over the summer I will try to prepare the release of the new project. I don't know how I will bring it to Steam, maybe by that time all the problems will be over, maybe I will find a workaround, I don't know yet. There is also a chance I will release only the finished project on Steam, without any early access. It will depend on the financial situation and our options.

There is also this question:
https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198872723920/recommended/1797300/ Several times I've seen reviews that there are bugs in the second part. We have done many fixes, and I can’t find any bugs. If there still are some bugs in the game, they are probably not the most obvious ones. Perhaps there is some issue with transferring the progress, and it’s very well hidden. If you have encountered any bugs in the second part, please send us your logs and saves.
Thank you all for your interest in our work.
All the best.

2 characters will get endings
about new game probably but most likely under another publiser name (they are russian so financial blockage)

 

[priyabrata]

I don't like the endings of episode 2.
How about Forlan become the king and add all girls to his harem .
