Hey friends! It's been a minute since anything has been posted on the dev blog proper, but I've got something to share. Today I received an email containing a video and a photo of the contents of an envelope had been sent to me. I can't seem to embed the video itself, so I'll have to describe what's going on with that. It's rather interesting though—it was a doorbell video. Weirdly enough, the person recorded on it seems to be... The SPU Delivery Guy? Y'know, the one who delivered those packages from the Puppet Master way back. He's talking to someone inaudible off-camera, but more importantly, what is he doing here? Hang on, let me transcribe it for you... "Yo! Is anybody home? I've got a rush delivery for P̸͡L̸AY̴͢E̢͘R̷̸! ...Oh, they're not home again? Man, I always seem to miss them whenever they've got a package to receive huh? Sure, it's been a while since I've last been here, but it's kind of a weird coincidence that they're never around whenever I am. Kind of a shame too, as I probably won't see be able to meet them for real in the future. Either way, there's an envelope that's addressed to them, so if you would be so kind to hand it to them when you next see 'em, that'd be fantastic. ...What? What do I mean I won't be able to meet them? Well, I'm leaving the city, actually. This is my last day at work y'see, and I'm leavin' for greener pastures in two days. My boss didn't want to extend the duration of my contract, and I decided enough is enough. Too much freaky stuff happening 'round these parts anyways, what with the freak accidents at Axis High 'n all... I don't want any part in it, so I'm headin' to Galar. I've found some work there instead. ...Yeah, thanks man. I'll do my best out there. You take care, too. You better stay safe out there." ...And that's it. The second thing that was included in the email is the package itself—the envelope that the guy delivered. Inside the envelope was... Tickets for a farewell concert for Risa Raider...? But... That shouldn't be possible. As we all know, she's... ... Oh, the mail that contained the video and photo had a bit to say about the ticket. "The tickets seem legit, but there's something off about them. When you hold one up, it looks as if the image of Risa on the front of the card glitches out ever so slightly, as if she's opening her eyes to smile at you. I'm not sure if I hallucinated it or if it's real, but the tickets give me the creeps." Finally, the email described a date was listed on the back of the ticket. July 13th. Strangely enough, there was no venue location included... But instead, it lists that a promotional video for the concert shall be released that day. Perhaps the place where the concert will be held will be announced in that video? Something shifty is going on with this whole thing, that's for sure. Perhaps it's best that we keep an eye on the situation for now. We'll keep you posted! o7

(Disclaimer: This post will probably be updated as time goes on today if there's anything I missed or realize I want to add later. Or maybe not!) 1.) DO NOT MERGE YOUR V14 FOLDER WITH YOUR V13.5 FOLDER Hey there! It's finally time again! This is not the release post. This is a quick post to help make your save file transition from v13.5 to v14 is as smooth as possible. First, let's start with this: PLACES THAT ARE NOT SAFE TO SAVE/LOAD UP IN: DISCORD INTEGRATION: Rejuvenation is now officially supported on Discord! No more Poker game or Age of War or whatever it's called in your activity sidebar. GEN 9 + ZA Megas: Gen 9 is now included! This includes numerous moveset updates. I said we weren't including ZA Megas and that's somewhat true. All sprites and stones have been implemented, but only those with official abilities are actually included in game. Go nuts trying to find some of them! JOIPLAY/KIRIN: We do have builds for Joiplay, but calling it official support may be a bit of stretch. These are highly experimental builds and maintaining overarching support is something we aren't putting at a high priority right now. There ARE some issues that we already know about that CANNOT be fixed by our side. The developers of these will have to take care of them. Same goes for Kirin. THE PROLOGUE + NG+: The prologue got some big changes if you weren't aware. It has an extended story if you have a completed v14 save. NG+ Is actually quite extensive this time around. So once you're done playing v14, there's more adventures to be had if you so wish to experience them! Some of them are very... very interesting. And I reward you handsomely for taking the time to play again :). I'll leave it at that. CHAPTER PASSWORDS: V13.5 brought in a Terajuma Password that allowed you to skip directly to Terajuma. v14 Brings in a new password that skips you directly to Act 2, Chapter 9. I really wanted to get a Karma Files password ready for release, but this password is already very experimental. I expect there to be some unforeseen issues with this one. Tread carefully with this one, but it should work okay. In the future I hope to have the Karma Files password skip ready as well, but ACT 2 is so extensive that it takes a lot of time and testing. I hope you all understand! RANDOMIZER SUPPORT: Unfortunately due to all the major systems changes we've had, having this in time for release was not feasible, but we are working on support later down the line! HOW TO START CHAPTER 16: But first, I have to mention something. I know a lot of you Renegade fans are itching to jump into Renegade first. I highly, highly do not recommend that you do this. Renegade acts without regard to spoilers in Paragon. And some things in Renegade will flat out NOT MAKE SENSE without context from Paragon. I HIGHLY recommend that you play and complete Chapter 16 in Paragon FIRST.

No turning back. It all ends here. With or without you. ...But where are you? When are you? Instructions on what to do before and after loading can be found HERE. DOWNLOAD THE GAME HERE OR HERE Patch Notes (V14.0.0):
