Next Time, On Mdqp's Adventures...

We are going to tackle romance! Romance in the workplace! Romance outside! Romance! Romance!

Err... Sorry, I got a little excited. Last week I did the usual do some work on TOTDC 2 (wrote a new scene, tested some effects, implemented some other elements), but now that we are back to Caliross, I'll spend the first week writing some scenes.

I already got a new one for the secretary job ( a follow up from one of the new scenes introduced in the last update), and I'd like to write at least 2 scenes for Tania (if you took part in the Patreon poll, you'll know she won that one). After this, I should really double-check if everything is finished in Jin's path, and if that's the case, I'll finally add the option for him to move between Tarkas and Golden Leaf.

I'd also like to add an option to free the slaves right away, but I wonder how I should handle it. It feels bad to reward "doing the right thing" by taking away Jin or Lea from the players, but at the same time, their entire arcs are built around their situation, and I don't want to write a different arc just to accomodate this (if people have an idea on how they would handle this, I am happy to hear it). I guess being good is its own reward. XD

I'll be looking into other quality of life stuff and/or small things which make sense (as always, suggestions welcome). I'll be adding the fast travel carts to Golden Leaf, for example (I might tie this appearance to fixing the town), and I want to go through the newspaper posts in the commercial district to see what should be added (once again, suggestions welcome! What do you want to see recognized in the newspaper)? Maybe also an option to buy the newspapers? I should add more items for the trophy room (have I begged enough for suggestions?), and I am sure there is more to do.

After that, I'd like to work on a new quest, and to see if I can add the option to explore the capital around the castle.

Next month, we should discuss on Patreon how long it will take me to add the additional content for the 1.0 release (picking the top 3 results, as they seem much more popular than the rest), and we might also have a final poll, to see how/when to introduce TOTDC 2 in my schedule and phase out Caliross.

That does sound like a lot, although to be honest I plan to take a week off in December for the holidays, so don't expect a deluge of content in the short term! I am trying to avoid overworking myself, especially now that the game is getting more content (I can't exactly crunch for a release when it's that far away).

Anyway, that's a long post, and I think I covered everything. As always, let me know if you have questions, otherwise I'll see you soon during our regular schedule! ^_^
