This week's focus was to get out of the abandoned shrine. I haven't managed to update all NPCs yet so don't get surprised when about som inconsistent dialogues, when Aura and Edwin talk about Arwin in Sick Workers.
But a lot changes have been taken over. The end of content points are now the next stations 3 main quest plot strings. In addition to updating NPCs, there have also been some rewards for a couple of resuces. Check out the Refugee Camp if you beat the Festival in under 40 days. Likewise, a merchant in the Congregation is also thankful for you ending Mammon's curse.
Speaking of the Congregation, if you saved the dying merchant in Arwin's cellar, you can find him there as well. Although he is quite an ungrateful fellow. I recommend talking to him after unlocking the Main Chamber, as you will be able to do the first Vice action and blackmail him into giving you a decent reward.
If you plan to head to the church, be sure to check out the Black Priestess. You will find periodically restocking Blessed Water as church reward. Effectively you can slow down corruption by >25% -- if you have the money to pay the continuously rising price for Blessed Water.
The last item on the list for this week is the second and last lewd scene during the Festival. I managed to get the first draft written but, but still need to edit & script it. I plan to finish it over the weekend, and then move on to further post-Festival side content creation.
On the balancing side, there has only been one minor change: If you are playing on Story More, you can now buy the VIP Pass for 10.000 Perika instead of the previous 20.000.
Regarding writing, I have also made some more progress regarding commissioning a writer. The writer is a former contributor to the game Third Crisis. He made a first version of a new side quest and a lewd scene to progress in there. Expect some naked dancing. I plan to tackle the scripting for it next week. With a bit of luck, our lewd scene counter can go up by 2 next week.
Regarding art, you have probably already seen the patreon post for the Demon Worshipper Handjob CG. Not sure if the CGs are going to get finished next week, but it looks like our artist could finish the at the latest the weak after that.
Also we are only 100€ off from finishing the next investment round, I would absolutely not mind if we could pass that barrier. :D
