Quest Failed: Chapter Two - Dev Log #17
Added 2017-08-13 15:02:19 +0000 UTCHi there, guys!
For today's dev log I wanted to re-introduce someone royal--namely the Queen of Anzara herself: Deidra, the benevolent ruler. You might notice that she looks a little different now!
Discussing things with her artist and taking in feedback that been received before, we both agreed that her original sprite felt somewhat out of place and could be improved in a number of ways, and the artist very generously offered his time to redo her sprite, producing the new design that you see now!
It still retains the same spirit of her old design, keeping the same general outfit and aesthetic, but has been redone in a way that meshes better with the existing sprites I feel. It also now fits more closely with her CG art so that there's less of a jarring change between the two.
I apologise for the generally short dev log today, but don't want to delve too deep into Deidra's character as I feel I would have to tread incredibly lightly to avoid spoiling too much of Chapter 2, but at least wanted to share with you the new art, and I hope you agree that it's a drastic improvement, too!
To make up for this shorter dev log, please let me know what you might want me to make a post on next--be it related to the world of Quest Failed, or something else! I'll having something up promptly in the next couple of days based on what you might want to hear more about next!
Thank you for your support as always~

Hi there, Yes! I've been intending to try and bring this back but it has slipped my mind more than a few times. I deeply apologise for letting things slip like this. I want to at the very least continue with the high-res CG releases for all of the Chapter One art and will hold a poll relatively soon to determine things. Thanks for reminding me, and I really am sorry I keep letting this slip further and further back.

2017-08-15 14:31:32 +0000 UTCHello, I wanted to ask about something in the Seasoned Adventurer Tier. Speciffically teh High-rez CG's mentioned, to my knowledge there has only been one set released (Ruby). Any plans for more?

2017-08-15 14:27:26 +0000 UTCI think I prefer this one better. I had felt the queen clashed a little but couldn't quite put my finger on why. Kudos to the artist for being so generous!

2017-08-13 19:02:42 +0000 UTCOooh As one who tends to edit for friends, I understand entirely what trying to post something new every week does to everything else you've got planned. It becomes a part time job in and of itself. So while I'm a little dissappointed, I'm not surprised or even annoyed. Definately best to revise the tiers a little when you have time, and no hard feelings. I haven't! I've been pretty satisfied with the regular devlogs, and scrolling down hadn't even occured to me. If you do find time to put them all together into a single format, I think it would be appreciated and I look forward to reading them.

2017-08-13 15:45:48 +0000 UTCI apologise--as I've been meaning to revise the tiers, and it wasn't my intention to mislead or deceive--but the weekly stories fizzled out when I realised just how much was added to my workload on top of Chapter Two and the custom story tiers. They became more stories that I would post more sporadically, along with sharing the custom stories I may have written for people with their permission to post. Have you read the previous stories I had posted? As I've also been meaning to collect and put them all together in an easier to find format rather than being scattered all over the patreon posts as they are.

2017-08-13 15:23:59 +0000 UTCI've been wondering-I'm happy to continue pledging ten per month regardless, as this is delightful work. But what is the status of the weekly stories mentioned in that tier?
