Proof of Life #152: Almost done with new content, a few misc. additions left
Added 2022-11-07 23:04:32 +0000 UTCHey hey hey folks, it's ya boy, N_Taii! I hope you've been doing well this past week : ) Progress has been somewhat slow over the week-end, but I still got a fair bit done since last Monday, and it looks like the release of Update 1 will likely be exactly on the 15th of this month without a day of delay. Still, I have another PoL post scheduled for the 14th, so I'll give you a definitive date then.
I'm just repeating myself, but just so everyone gets a good idea of what's in the update: first quest for Lily, first quest for Haylen, and a some progress with the main quest (+an optional objective added to it). One scene with Haylen, one scene with Rose, and one scene with a non-important character + 1 extra scene. Every scene but the extra has a partial PoV version to it, although it obviously shows far less than the omniscient PoV. New misc. things to be done such as bug and typo fixes, hopefully adding a basic option to modify keybinds, some additions to earlier dialogues, changing the character full body portraits with the definitive versions, etc...
It was already mentioned in the title, but I'm almost done with new content, just some more stuff to add and test everything for this Update.
It'll answer some questions, and add some more. It'll unfold the way some had hoped, and may disappoint others. But hey, I worked hard on that, so I hope you'll all like it!
Can't say much more for the time being, so I'll end this PoL right here. Let me know if you've got questions in the comment section, and I'll do my best to answer them : )
Thank you for reading, and have a wonderful week!

I guess that makes sense. The good news is: I can still remove it^^

2022-11-11 16:24:15 +0000 UTCI think part of the fun of the partial POV is wondering if and when something is happening to the girls, so if you get a notification, that kinda ruins that aspect

2022-11-11 14:54:12 +0000 UTCNot currently, no. I didn't think it would be a bother for many people?

2022-11-11 03:55:40 +0000 UTCwill you be able to toggle the notification on and off ?

2022-11-11 01:32:16 +0000 UTCJust wanna add that I now added a notification when scenes are unlocked. It should help those with Partial PoV on know when they can see them, instead of running back to the Reminiscence Room every time to check if anything appeared.

2022-11-10 23:04:00 +0000 UTCNot really, since the partial PoV has almost nothing to show. Most of the time, it's just a few hints that something is going on, then the player is free to walk around and spot other hints. Any partial PoV scene in the reminiscence room would have something like 5 seconds worth of actual cutscene content, if any at all. Not worth going through the hassle of setting everything up.^^

2022-11-08 15:54:03 +0000 UTCDo you plan on including a switch in the gallery room that switches between partial and omnicient perspective?

2022-11-08 14:18:51 +0000 UTCYep, all scenes in the reminiscence room can only be seen from an omniscient perspective, but will be unlocked whenever a scene has "passed" regardless of the PoV used. Playing with the partial PoV for the entirety of the game and checking the scenes afterwards in the reminiscence room with the other perspective is totally doable, so if that sounds like something you'd enjoy, then go for it : )

2022-11-08 04:07:55 +0000 UTCThanks for worrying about me, but I'm fine : ) Sergeant (9$) and above will have access to the update on the day it is released, and Grunt (5$) will get it 5 days later.

2022-11-08 04:03:49 +0000 UTCThank you for your hard work. I just have some questions, When I see the scene with the non-omniscient pov(forgot the name), I end up unlocking it in the reminiscence room WITH the omniscient pov, right? If I'm right, then the only way to check that scene with the non-omniscient pov would be to just play as such, is it? I'm thinking of playing with that pov turned on and then just checking the scene later in the remniscence room to see the omniscient pov. What do you think? Have a nice week!

2022-11-07 23:44:26 +0000 UTCNo, you're completely right^^ It was an oversight on my part, and will be fixed. I so wanted to have him in this scene, I completely forgot where he was actually supposed to be. Thanks for pointing it out!

2022-11-07 23:13:48 +0000 UTCJust a thing I noticed while replaying, it seems that for a brief scene Brutus is there walking behind the Duke during the Rose incoronation cerimony, when he should be out of city with Leto's squad? Maybe I saw wrong but it looked like his armor
