No, not yet. I played a few years ago and I remember him being a goofy, lovable nerd. Unless something sinister was added down the line?
I'll probably do a playthrough for both of them - as far as the demo goes anyway.
I see, thank you. I'd rather pay once for the full game even if the price goes up, so I'll wait.
P.S. Having returned to the game after a while, I have to ask: would it be at all possible to get Kate and Damien to date each other?
The protagonist is great, but I really want to witness those 2 cinnamon rolls be tooth-rotingly sweet to each other. Plus, seeing the protagonist play matchmaker would be cool - especially since Kate is unsure about men and would likely need encouragement to feel at ease. Or maybe have the protagonist curiously tail them for some comedy, though it does seem out of character for her.
I just wanted to put the suggestion forward. I understand if you want to complete the game first, but I'd gladly pay for such a sweet addition to the game (maybe as a "What if?" scenario or a side story for the game), provided it's within my budget.
Thank you for a wonderful game and for updating the demo.
A lone wolf or 2 can't fight a bear (it'd be beyond dangerous for a whole pack as a bear is far stronger and heavier, a well placed strike could kill a wolf) and wolves flee from humans rather than fight - unless they're sick (e.g. rabies erodes the natural fear as the brain is eventually damaged), starving and desperate or see no other option at all - especially this much. Plus, wolves would regard a domestic dog as as immature and not an equal.
I liked the composition with the text and pictures, but the presentation of wolves as animals is WAY off.
*Confused.* I do not follow.
We have 2 facts: 1 it was a simple dish and despite that (in other words "but") 2 she prepared it exceptionally well.
I understood it as praising her cooking skills and Catherine still giving it her all in terms of skill despite the simplicity of the dish on its own. You'd get the same opposition by breaking the structure into 2 sentences and using "However, ...".
I'd get the meaning of "It trivially easy to make, especially for someone with her cooking skills.", if the quoted text had "and" instead of "but".
Then again, maybe it's the influence of my mother tongue showing here - it strictly requires a comma after every clause.
Either way, I'm genuinely at loss, so would you mind explaining in more detail?
I'm starting to think whoever wrote this must have been rather tired at the time. XD
"With a smile on her lips and a song on her heart, Catherine began to work on her special."
You need the comma because it's an adjunct of manner and it should be "in her heart" since it's not that she has the lyrics tattooed on her chest.
And soon after: "Eleanor was still red, but she looked encouraged by the crowd and continued making her way towards the bar."
That doesn't work.
Someone can "give you courage" in the meaning of making you braver, but "to encourage someone" means to persuade them to purse an activity, like parents making a child take up a sport or some other hobby. It isn't applicable to a single action, nor does it mean "make someone brave", so it can't be used here.
Eleanor commenting on an ally: "But I wouldn't trust that nut job as far as I can throw a horse."
The phrase is "I would trust her as far as I can throw her." (since the described person is female) and I have trouble picturing Eleanor throwing a full grown horse, regardless of how strong she might be.
The next page of the same fight: "A ray of fire exploded from her fingers and traveled with blinding speed towards her target, it exploded against the cultist's chest and quickly made his body and clothes catch on fire. As the flames spread, they hit the web, which immediately caught on fire and thrusted the other cultists into a roaring inferno of flames."
It's either that something "is on fire" or "catches fire". "Catch on fire" doesn't work. I also added a few commas to places where they were missing (the first part is an adjunct of time ("as the flames spread" and the other is a subordinate clause ("which ..."), so the commas are obligatory).
The investigation part with Catherine in the cathedral after the initial confrontation. If you apologize to the cleric, he'll question her laughter and her response is: "You just remind me a lot of my best friends." The following question is what kind of man said person is, so it should be "friend" in the quoted line since it's referring to a single person.
Chapter 3, if you accept the offer of a certain character: "Catherine got her answer almost immediately as a voice appeared on her head."
It should be "in her head", unless there's a tiny invisible creature actually on her forehead, which sounds funny as a possibility, but doesn't fit with telepathic communication.
I'm in chapter 3 and chose hugs twice (because it's cute and wholesome :D) and the sentence I spotted is about the person Catherine is teaching: "The young tiefling was being able to do everything on her own."
It's already in the past tense, so not only does "being" not flow naturally with the rest, it also breaks the agreement of tenses. Drop it. If you want to emphasize it's only temporary a construction like "this time" would work.
P.S. While I was taught a good deal about grammar, I'm not a native speaker. If my corrections ever feel off, do tell, I'd love to learn and improve. :)
I spotted a few more typos. Still the fight with the orcs in chapter 2.
The first isn't strictly speaking a typo, but it stood out. Eleanor has the line: "So be it. FOR THE Empire!" before charging at the orcs. It would make more sense to have "EMPIRE" since I doubt she'd only scream the first 2 words.
A few pages later there's a paragraph about how the same woman will fight orcs not caught up in a web. The sentence is about the orcs: "All three started getting up at the same time, but Eleanor was the quicker of the tree." It should either be that she was the fastest of the 4 since all 4 combatants are in focus or that she was "quicker than the three orcs". I doubt a tree sprouted on the battlefield all of a sudden.
P.S. You probably figured this out already, but I saw I forgot to say this before. Animals like boars, deer and horses have hooves/hoofs. I wanted to mention it since I pointed out a problem last time, but forgot to add a solution.
And would it be possible to have a dedicated section for typos? It'll probably be easier to keep track of them in one place. Just an idea. :)
This one is probably a typo, but it's still the same quest only the dup defending their camp from orcs by barricading the camp. Eleanor speaking: "If they come mounted in wolves, don't think they are just like horses, they are as likely to kill you as the orc riding on top of it."
First, it should be "mounted on wolves" since they are using the animals for transport and not somehow embedded in their flesh as "in" suggests and second, I'd suggest changing the last bit to: "they are as likely to kill you as the orcs riding on top of them.", so you can keep the number agreement between multiple wolves and orcs since no single animal or rider are pointed out.
So far I'm greatly enjoying the game's story, rich setting and humor, so thank you. :D
However, boars do not have paws. Animals such as wolves and bears do.
The exact sentence while the MC and Eleanor are hunting a giant boar for a certain ingredient during their second quest goes like this: "Missing Eleanor by a hair, the wounded boar tried to turn to her but his wounds and his still slippery paws made him stagger and fall to the ground once more."
Also in the third paragraph of the same page you have: "She was now unbalanced and the boar was fresher than she would expect giving his wounds."
It should be "given" instead of "giving" since you're referring to the injury sustained a bit earlier and not once being inflicted right now, as suggested by the -ing form.
On the next page you have "Three spectral darts flew from Catherine towards the boar, the first two hit the right flank of the creature and the last one hit it on one of its legs." - not strickly speaking a mistake, but I would make more sense to stay consistent and keep referring to the animal as "he" since you've already been doing that for the entire encounter, plus saying "animal" would be more percise than "creature". That very inconsistency rears its head on the next page: "The boar let out a pitiful growl of pain as he tried desperately to get back on its feet."
Just wanted to let you know since all the examples jumped at me.
