Romance Options

[dawnwaifu]

I know you guys have a lot on your plate, but I've grinded this game a few times--I really enjoy it--but I've always really wanted Tab to be a romance-able character! It's been a bit since a new character was considered for it, and in every play through she always stood out right away as one of the characters with the most personality. I think having the choice to have her more involved with the player and the story would really improve the world building, and she's super cute.

I don't know if I understood it correctly that it's closer to being done than we thought, but I hope the amount of scenes for each character and maybe one or two aditional for the beasts get more meat.
Oh and the romance options as well, not sure if that was much yet, when the game got my attention it looked like it could be really big.
Currently at least I'm waiting a abit because I'm missing some story things or conversations, me wishing for more scenes might be a side thing.

i just don't want to get bored before this is finished.

Unfortunately this is an impossible amount of work for the developers to achieve due to several factors:

• The difficulty and level of polish in producing hand-drawn high resolution pixel art animations.
  
• The amount of time it takes for a skilled animator working exclusively on one (1) HD animation is roughly 2 months at least.
  
• Adding onto the existing HD scenes with variations each is doubling the total amount of HD work, or more.

I'd personally love something with Vodan and Skandr! I'm a big fan of these two! (Also if there were ever more fully romanceable NPCs added, Sieger)

Sieger will get a HD scene and a partial romance arc leading up to it.

I’m assuming Brontide hasn’t been implemented yet, can’t even talk to the man outside of story convenience.

Only Fio and Yonten are partially interactable in the current build, the full story arcs for each companion will be added in the future.

So Im new, are the animations for the companions in this build the only ones for the final version? I saw a concept of Camellia in the amazon position and was really looking forward to that being implemented in 1.0.

Each companion will only have a one scene between both genders. Additional scenes are unfortunately an impossible task for the team to achieve due to several factors:

• The difficulty & level of polish in producing hand-drawn high resolution pixel art animations.
  
• The amount of time it takes for a skilled animator working exclusively on one (1) HD animation is roughly 2 months at least.
  
• Adding onto the existing HD scenes with variations each is doubling the total amount of HD work, or more.

The 'concept' of Camellia's is fanmade and was never planned to be added in the game.

Please please... PLEASE WE need MORGAN as an option T.T

No more companions will be added as this would be unrealistic amount of work for the team to pull off. Morgan has a date in the Royal Matchmaker event and will receive more interactions in the future alongside other lesser NPCs.

Hello and thank you for sharing out your mind!

There will be 10 major companions with fully fleshed out story arcs, able to be romanced & even married:

• Fio
  
• Yonten
  
• Camellia
  
• Kiram
  
• Kaleida
  
• Garst
  
• Jaero
  
• Kreyton
  
• Goldra
  
• Brontide

Tab will get a sprite scene and the dialogue leading up to it but anything more is unfortunately not possible for the team to pull off. All lesser NPCs including Tab are planned to have more interactions in the future however.

any chance we get catarella as option in the future?

Hell yeah, best girl

Dam sucks that there's only 1 scene per gender for the flushed out romance options, i get it takes alot of work, but even if it was a cheap dlc for more scenes idk (jus throwing a idea out there)

I'm sure fans would wait for more scenes too no matter how long it would take.

It's not impossible but no promises for post-release content can be made before the game is released.
