Dear RCX,

I have been looking into some of the dialogues in Book 1 and I have a question on this.
Hikaru states in Book 1 that he has two younger sisters, but who are they?
Is that part of the constructed past of Hikaru, the live that Purgatory  has constructed for him?
I would be very happy if you could clear this up for us, when you have time to spare.
Thanks

They're actually unimportant to the overall story, but in the real world he does have two sisters. They're also Shizuka's sisters, too, but she has no emotional attachment to either of them (they were born after she was 'reborn'), which is why she never talks about them.

Decided to compare my testing accounts against each other. A few interesting things I learned about my testing:

- There's no way to bring Scaldar's affection value up; it only goes down. In that case it's better off not counting toward anything.

- Kuth'kullen is either going to like you or hate you, but it's much easier to change this than any of the other characters as they all deal with the siege weapons in Book 4

- Apparently I put down Hokuto every chance I get.

Thanks for your reply :)

So these sisters are part of the waking world are they?
What exactly do you mean with after Shizuka was reborn - di you mean after Shizuka was summoned into Purgatory?

What do you mean with affection value?
Why can Abolisher like or hate us - is that going to be able with certain path branches
What do you mean with "putting down" Hokuto

Sorry, maybe it is my bad English, but I wasn't able to figure out how this testing processed. Can you explain a little more in detail, what you have done and what were the test results.

1. When she became possessed by Deathclaw.

2. More or less how much a character likes the way you play.

3. Abolisher liking you or not has no affect on plot branches, but rather gameplay impact, such as effectiveness or availability of the various siege weapons he cooks up.

4. As in, not being nice to her.

You mean the characters are evaluating the way we play the game and will react accordingly? Awesome...
How will this be done?

Is it just me, or is anyone else unable to open the updated Book 4? I tried re-downloading it and it didn't help...

I suppose it's possible the upload actually failed, as I have no problems opening it.


EDIT: I uploaded it again, then tested it. It should work fine now.

Was book 4 recently updated?
What was new in the update?

Razorclaw, can you tell us what tasks are left to do for you?
Also you said there won't be any tomes in the last book. Well, maybe you would like to consider tomes of agility for Scaldar and Yue Fang as yet it was not possible to upgrade them in these terms.  Just a thought from my point of view....

Good luck

The last boss still isn't done. He probably won't get done for another month at least. The last two I just finished may need a little rebalancing at the moment. I'm also prioritizing the ending over the final boss, too.

I was toying with the idea of making another arena level, but only if I have time, and could justify it. I've already made 17 bosses already, and I don't think I have much more in me.

Looks like the final battle is gonna be pretty epic considering you mentioned that the last boss will take a month or so to implement.
