And here comes the prerelease. Most of today's changelog comes from the patch release, but we do have a couple of items for the prerelease as well.
For starters, there is one new mental change: Vulgar Speech. I mentioned this already in the project plan post. While there are no real world scenes that specifically highlight the effects, playing with this change installed replaces various euphemisms with the words cock/pussy. You can install it in the Instincts Room language machine on the top-left.
Then, we have the main addition to the technical work this week: A new underwater dungeon, this time in the Central Lake. Since this is an alternate way to get to Winterfall and skip the massive money checks, it will be quite long with this only being the first level. Also expect several degrees of deadliness, especially coupled with some of the enemy buffs from the public patch :P That being said, you do get access to a bunch of extra materials and Gourmet Meat, which helps quite a lot in the Belphegor fight prep.
Especially if you are a Mage character and lacked the MATK firepower to deal major damage with it, the additional Jelly Jams you can acquire in these depths, will help you quite a bit. In general, you will also find some extra loot in the Nephlune Underwater dungeon, and in general find some tileset improvements to pretty up the areas.
Besides these content additions, I have also done some asset management improvements as I mentioned in the project plan post and majorly improved the folder structures. I tried to be as careful as possible, correctly craft my search&replace scripts so they correctly update all the resource references for the new folder structures, but it's possible that you might experience some "resource not found" crash. If so, please drop me a report so I can fix it! I already had a couple of reports from people using the Daily Build and I think we got most of them, though.
So yeah, that's about it! I will next week continue my work on dungeon creation in the Underwater Area, there are currently 2 levels you can gain access to, not sure which one to pursue yet, or maybe I will start both so I have the full layout done and then finish them in the next technical week update. We will see.
For the full changelog including today's patch, check below. Until next week then!
