Mercenary and Loyalty - Character and choices

[Mainnoire]

Hi

I tried the new demo.
I believe i saw one of my unit gain loyalty in a fight and i think it was a mercenary.
I see in a unit status the other stats but not this one. Is it a hidden one ?
And is it possible for a mercenary that gains enough loyalty to lose his mercenary trait ?


Regarding the character creation and the relationships, I'm left with questions.
For the personality test at the beginning, what does it change ?
Some of my stats or resources at the beginning ? Some dialogue ?

For romance, i understand that i can only choose one character amongst several options, no harem.
Will there be other branching choices ? Or will the story be mostly linear ?
Will there be a warning that i'm about to make a definitive choice ? Or will that be handled inside the dialogue ?

Thank you !

Hello!

Yep, Mercs start with the lowest possible loyalty and therefore cost more capacity. Over time in combat they gain loyalty points and that cost goes down.

The character creation affects starting stats and growths throughout the game.

The relationships don't change the main story, just the ending as you see their lives carry out after the main story's events.

Alright thank you !

Regarding the traits, i thought it was a bit tedious to have to go consult them in the tutorial menu to have an explanation.
Especially since you have to go through a list of traits you might not have seen before which can spoil you somewhat.

Is there no way to have the explanation appear in a pop-up of some kind when moused over ?
Or is that going to be one of the differences between the demo and the final product ?

Traits are explained right on the spot when looking at a character's status window, we are working on an even better display but for now, no need to hit up the tutorial section for that

Will there be gay marriages? I need to know.

It took me watching the tutorial vids to see it, but little tabs that look like : >>>> , can be clicked when you look at a unit, and it will show the traits.

There's 2 endings with smaller differences within those 2 based on your relationships

Ah well I will wait till the endings are on youtube to decide

My love of langrisser and tactics ogre came from the options that led to different units and styles of play

It seemed like in the relationship web in the vid, they had the romance line be set between the MC and someone else. So if other ones can pop up it should basically allow for some?

To this day I still have no idea if the game has same sex relationships and why the dev doesn't wanna answer the questions.
I don't wanna sound rude but I rather not give money to someone who doesn't support LGBT content.

With that said, someone could please tell me if the game indeed has male gay romance? Please.

This is pretty slanderous. You've never asked me questions, I don't know who you are. And the game does have same sex relationships.

Like I said, I'm sorry if my comment came as rude, I was just saying that I didn't want to support something like that.
Thank u for answering, and again I didn't ment to offend, just making sure.
Are all the characters available or only a few? (I just wanna know before I purchase)

It's not all, just like not all characters can bond with all other characters regardless of their preferences. It's chemistry-based with a few community-inspired pairings.

When you come out swinging and accusing me of avoiding questions when you haven't asked any, how is that not going to be rude? Sheesh.

I'm not accusing you, you make me doubt yourself since you answered all questions except the "is there gay marriage/romance?" in this thread and another one. (Just check the messages above)
No need to get so defensive about it, you did what you did.

You answered my question now thank you. Like I said before, I liked the look of the game, it like Iooks wonderful but wanted to make sure what I support so I had to ask. Thanks again.

so what if a game had no gay match ups, because none of them are gay....would that game be anti lgbt?
Just trying to get it strait,as it seems, not making it the main selling point of a game gets anger(EVEN tho if we did it by real life #s it should only be about 8-10% would be lgbt)it has been stated more then a FEW times in a few places that there are lgbt bonds in game....i support LGBT.....but this is not the way to go about it with developers, or anyone for that point.

Respect is earned not given by a law or a point of view. Together we can stop this hate and make a better place for all to be happy, from being happy, not some forced fake smiles to avoid making someone mad...
