With Spring Break officially over, I have a third major update for the week. Added lots of dialogue, texts, lore, and updated the Player's Manual with an extensive timeline of the history of Orinia. Fixed a lot of little bugs and balanced combat a little more. Added more full-screen art when entering certain maps for the first time. Gonna be a while before the next update, but I'm putting up a bunch of spoiler-heavy dev notes on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/lcsoftware

Complete list of fixes/updates:

-Increased all ability Meta costs.
-Finished Ch.2 initial dialogue with all three party members.
-Added Dabi, Sebastius, and Feluco to Ch.2 if not already in party and not dead from Ch.1.
-Decreased starting karma in Ch.2 Demo from 100 to 50 (player should gain about 20 karma/chapter on average).
-No longer able to unlock ability from trainer if insufficient max meta, included meta costs on trainer list.
-Added description image of default human species stats on character creation map.
-Added full-screen scenery art when player discovers certain new maps.

-Attacking the bandits between Feluco and Favius conversations now fails main objective.
-Added tons of new weapons (mace, staff, rapier, saber, scythe, and more, not in Ch.1).

Walking bow animation finally looks decent, balanced difficulty and increased all base stats to make combat last a little longer, added more krug unit types, a lot more lore in texts, plus other fixes. Gonna keep working on Chapter 2 next.

Complete list of fixes/changes:

Gonna be a while before I get back to Warlordocracy because Spring break is next week. I'm just gonna be reading shit tons of used tabletop RPG books for inspiration (not for IP theft, I swear). Hopefully it will be out of early access this summer. Pushed it way back because of a sweet-ass day job.
