Biweekly rambling

Working my butt off on the update! I wished to get it out this weekend but realistically it isn't doable, there's still too much playtesting and finetuning to do. So, next week! Also, unfortunately, I will leave the Marcus drama for the next month's update, otherwise we'll be here till the end of the month or something. I plan on releasing it next month along with Tinsae's scenes. It will be a challenge but I'm trying to stop myself from editing too much and just steam ahead. I'm on a roll and just focusing on getting out of the baths haha.
Also, as I've worked on the update, I made sense of Niall's code for the rest of the book. Previously, I mentioned the confidence stat, but I don't think it will be relevant in this book. Next one, perhaps. For now, how into the whole revenge thing Hati is affects a lot of his route. Pro revenge and hella confused variables determine a lot of the bigger branching. I mean, it makes sense, you're either there to kill his family or you're not. It's kind of a big deal lol. Also, things came up about Quinn in this update that I didn't think would come up just yet. But it was interesting and Quinn's 'bath' scenes will definitely have to be mandatory for all Hatis. Even if you hate their guts, something came up and it can't be ignored by any Hati. I mean, some kind of revelation was mandatory, the bath scenes is all about revelations.
Also also, I wasn't sure before how to go about the whole route locking thing. But now, I think that whoever you choose to have as your bath companion, determines that they will come in and help you with the Optio. If you chose Quinn, you will probably still have to go with someone else's bath scenes. I mean it goes with the idea what Quinn has said to you as well, you need to spend time with the others and not them. Quinn sees themselves as this bonus RO who's there no matter what and there's no sense in focusing on them anyway. It would make sense that they'd force a situation where you simply can't find them before they want it to happen. That's kind of their vibe, I'm sorry to all the Quinnmancers though. Your RO can be an ass.
Also, I think I mentioned this last time or I just thought about mentioning it, but whether you choose Tinsae or Camilla, you're locked into the 'girls' route'. I mean that you can pick between them even after the bath scenes, or both of them. In this case, your options are between Camilla and Tinsae. The same goes to Marcus and Niall. It just makes sense since there's this whole poly and LT thing to consider, too. They can be a package deal or maybe the other one is your bestie when you romance the other one. Their stories also intertwine so it just makes the most sense story and code wise.
Anyway! I'm feeling good about the progress. I hope y'all have a great weekend and thank you so so much for being here!
