The History and Theory of Magic

So while I'm working on next version and text being written and proofread, I wanna tell what I'm planning to insert into new patch, as every time I get to work on something big, there's bunch of other small things raise up I wish to include...

There's a lot of stuff I still want to do with the game, but I always have to make choice what will get to the next version and what will be left for later. I'll say, that side quests won't really go far until some time. Reason for that is, that they need considerable amount of work, and I don't really have time to spare until more standard content is there. Plus I really planning get more out of them than 'take thing A to place B', which may not seem like much in terms of gameplay though, but idea is what matters to me.

Magic Arts training ignoring requirements

New stuff:
-Skill system redone. Skills now learned in personal screen.
-World structure redone. More encounters, more walking, special encounters easier to spot.
-Added more names and surnames into the pool. Elfs have different pool (more to come later).
-Prototype of new date system implemented (just bones really)
-Added clothes selection (for now purely cosmetic)
-Obedience/loyalty is bit harder to train and easier to lose
-Repeatable quest requirements and rewards adjusted
-Added credits tab (hurr)

This should also fix old version firefox bug.

Edit: forgot to mention, patreon is there, so, please support.

I haven't really done much of a 'what I think about when designing Strive'  posts recently, so for a change, lets talk about psychology. Basically this is another post which is purely my thoughts, which may or may not be helpful to those, who consider succeeding in erotic game design...

Been strangely quiet recently on anywhere I am staying at. No help offers in sight regards writing either... that's pretty depressing.

Upcoming changes

So before I finally move onto expanding setting (adding new areas and stuff), I decided to indulge into my favorite thing.. redo what was done some time ago and does not quite fit now. Namely, skill system.
