Dating - it may be possible but that'll need A LOT of consideration (I have been CONSIDERING it at best, it seems very awkward and difficult and after playing undertale the word date means nothing to me).Hatred that changes the story - certainly.

I'm pretty sure I got missed :~

Yes, but not any time soon. Recruiting beta testers early led to problems with players getting back to me on time about their playthrough. Instead, I'll just start getting testers about a week before the episode's ready.

I'm working on a reputation menu to view your reputation with individual characters but it might not make it into the next episode.

Hey it'd be nice to search through the thread first (use the search bar on the top left) before asking a question. Yes I know it's tedious but it prevents questions having to be answered over and over. As for your answer, Derpy Simon said a while back:

Hey congratulations on the award! Se7en has such a large scope and a talented team, and I really enjoyed Episode 1. Good luck for the future you guys.

There's actually gonna be 8 pieces. I don't know why I said 7 months ago ;-;

I have a steam, but I won't bother sharing because my PC is a potato. My XBLGT is: XBaNaNa FoRceX Yes, I know, 12 year olds have such imaginative ideas for names. Hit me up.

There are no immediate effects apart from differing reputation scores. However: Perhaps ask these questions in the Desolation thread - you'll be more likely to get a quicker answer there.

Okay here goes: Dark theme, this as the sprite:

I forgot to add that to the fix list. Zorua copies your Pokemon's name for some reason probably because it's the last Pokemon Hardy sends out. I'll look into a fix.

The encounter rate was already decreased. As for the pieces:

1: The field will do the same amount of damage to any grass type (unless it has a resistant typing as it's secondary type). Treat it as though it were another fire attack at the end of the turn. 2:

There is a computer on the second floor of the lab that's downloading. Switch it off and you're fine. Scatterbug evolves yes, can't remember the exact level but it's the same as in the mainstream games. I removed the Black Foxes from the poll because it's already been officially announced as being in the game. There's no need to keep it in there. I want people to choose between the last two options now.

I might have to update the patch notes because I've fixed all these bugs for Episode 3. I may however release a 2.2 version to tide things over. That was one spooky black pixel, good find. Either I have a bad habit or Nova is an imposter. As for the other guilds being added - There are plans for the battling guild to be added in Episode 4, however there aren't any plans for the police guild. I'll leave the poll open with just those two options regardless to see if opinions change.

Shhhh, you'll have your time, someday.

Don't get your hopes up any time soon. In fact, ever. ON THE BRIGHT SIDE OF THINGS or should I say dark it's time to announce what the poll clearly gave away - the Black Foxes. Luckily, I intended this to be added in regardless of the poll, so I see nothing wrong with releasing some information but it's all very hush hush, here's an extract from Shiv's newest entry ~ Now hush, don't tell anyone, this history lesson was supposed to be classified. The Black Foxes will play a major role in sidequests and an a variable amount of time in the main storyline. This will depend on your reputation with Lilith. I'll let you figure out how to gain reputation with her. The Black Foxes won't be featured in the next Episode, as players won't find themselves in Cellia City juuuust yet. The Black Foxes story will be very long, and will take place over most of the game, so don't expect to finish it in one episode. NOTE: This was the first piece to the collection of lore documents I'm making collectively called Shiv's Codex. These documents allow players to get a simple grasp of important lore pieces in the game, and because it's in an image file it can simply be saved and stored if players trip up anywhere. This might become a weekly thing, I'll have to know what you guys think. Another announcement incoming

That moment when merc walked out in front of Ruby was so badass, the music in that final scene gave me goosebumps and the Rooster Teeth disclaimer warning against younger audiences pretty much suggests something bads gonna happen next episode.

An announcement is coming in the next few days, and it's one that most people are probably expecting considering the poll.

Uh... At least I can say you won't be disappointed by the next Episode.

I love jamming references and meme into SIDE content, no one can take that luxury away [: I don't plan on putting a teleporter near the volcano. Instead, I actually have plans to put one inside the Red cliff Lab.

Really great video man. I won't lie, I watched all of it.

Fair enough. I relate to that and will make Ava a spawn upon whiting out. Episode 2+ sprites are of significantly higher quality. That being said, sprites from Episode 1 will be updated in Episode 3. Agree about the Poison Type thing, Grimer could be a thing in the Jungle perhaps. As for the Connor battle, many people claim him to be too easy or too hard, it's tricky to balance due to it being so heavily impacted by which mainstream starter you choose. However I am planning to nerf his field slightly for the next release.

No. Bellsprout already has that position. I can't promise a release date because it creates too much pressure but follow the progress log on the original post to get a rough idea.

Yes. But the next patch is Episode 3 so there'll be quite a wait.
