This week I have rendered another two events in the Market. Only two more events remain unfinished in the Market. The final sex scene with one of the customers and one scene with Ryna that I did not do before. Next week all the Market scenes will be finished and then only a couple of miscellaneous events will need to be rendered. Which means that finally after about half a year of hard work I can see the finish line for the Ardor for Depravity version 0.30 to be completed and ready for release. I will still need a couple of weeks to render the remaining images, test and finalize everything, but I can now confidently say that the new version of Ardor for Depravity will be released on the 30th of October 2026.
The first event I managed to render was the first intercourse that Emily will have in the Market. As you know I want to give you, the players, plenty of choice in who will be the first to have sex with Emily. I have considered doing something similar to the Tavern, where I have reworked how the whole quest line works in order to give you that choice. However, as I thought more about how the whole Market Corruption quest line functions, I thought it would be better, and that it would fit more thematically and narratively, if the first one to have sex with Emily in the Market was the Merchant.
The second event I have done was with one of the regular customers, where Emily will have sex with him for the first time. As I mentioned above, this progression of events will adhere to the more linear structure that most of this quest chain was built on. Meaning that Emily will need to have sex with the Merchant first before the customers can have fun with her too. But, on the other hand, this gave me an opportunity to make it narratively stronger. The two customers, after seeing Emily have sex with the Merchant, demand more from her with their 'purchases'. They will eventually push her further into accepting doing sexual stuff with them that she would not accept otherwise.
