Plans for Chapter 8 and a bit of specific detail on 8m0




So we’re finally done with Chapter 7!  I was going to go into detail about how that ended up, but it’d be a spoiler too far for those who haven’t had a chance to play the finale there, so lets just talk about chapter 8.

Chapter 8 is the long-awaited return to Celee.  You cleared the Tu’Than out of the mines between Celee and Corsixa months ago (in game).  The people of Celee were struggling with the local monsters since the Ratan army left them without protection.  Well, the army is back and ‘protecting’ the local citizens might not be their greatest concern.  We’ll be spending a few months, at least, exploring the situation in Celee.

I do say a months, as this will be a big project for us.  We’re taking zones and events that we literally developed for years and must update that world before you re-enter Celee.  Things have been changing while you were gone, we aren’t simply opening the door without giving you new things to find.  Fortunately, I’ve had Hiro working on that for quite a few weeks now, so there is some content lined up already. 

I’m expecting to be spending 1-3 months in each zone (Lesser Corsix, Mountain Glory, and Eliba) again, possibly with a Westlands diversion as well.  You’ll meet a bunch of old friends, get a chance to add some women to your harem you missed before, and of course meet some new characters as well!  But we’ll have to see how it actually goes, storylines tend to get a life of their own no matter what I want… like Elan!

For now, I’m just going to briefly touch on what’s planned for 8m0.  We’re going to start with Lesser Corsix, updating every NPC in that zone with new conversations and content and at least one quest as well.  But we need to get that door open first, which means finishing the investigation of John’s murder.  Also, finishing up a few loose ends before starting Celee.  Adeline’s arc will be completed and she will be yours, as well as Leona.  With everything happening in Corsix, her city, Leona will be swept up by the events.  And into your bed!

Finally, there will be another scene in 8m0 and you get to choose who!  Right now, there’s a preliminary poll going that will narrow down the list from all your women to just 5.    That ends at the end of the month, so vote now!  The final will start on the first and run a week.

  1. This isn't about chapter 8, but wouldn't it make more sense for Angelica's herb bag and empowered herb bag to be an accessory equipment item instead of a shield?

    1. Also, what is the exact trigger for unlocking the regular herb bag?
