Walkthrough Archeology

 

So, in last week's news, I have been working quite a bit on the walkthrough. Turns out there were quite a few things that could be improved in the older sections, so I spent more time than I'd care to admit changing things here and there (having to re-tread years old quests takes some extra time), hopefully improving readability and giving more information on certain quests.

 

Next I did work on the adventurers guild quest. I think I am almost finished with the puzzles (just need to figure out one last bit), the dialogues are at a decent point and the mapping is finished as well. I just need to decide whether or not I want combat in the quest. Maybe I can have combat which is avoidable if you figure out a way to avoid the confrontation.

 

I did a tiny bit of work on the visit to Lord Kairos, but mostly I have been considering the overall structure, and if I want to add more content to it. It feels like there should be something like 3-4 scenes and a bad ending if you go along with him, but I also need to figure out what I want to happen if you refuse him (probably I need a noble quest at court, where he can be a nuisance). I also need to figure out what to do with his son. Like, do I want you to flirt around with both, or should it be mutually exclusive? I can probably figure that out after I finish the encounter with his father. I should probably also separate the event into multiple visits, if you keep being "nice" to him.

 

Anyway, that's the recap for the week. I am a bit disappointed I didn't do as much progress as I wanted to with Lord Kairos, but it is what it is. Nailing most of the details for the quest and its puzzles is still a good thing, so I should be happy about that, instead.

 

That's all for today, stay tuned for more irrelevant tangents and vague info about the game! See you next week! ^_^
