I don't believe this. I've lost out on more than a week in productivity on ERD ( if you exclude the art I've been doing ) and it's really, really killing my zest for this project. :( I was hoping to get you guys an updated demo by the end of this month but it looks like the release will only happen around mid-late April now.

As for a quick update log and a quick race introdction. Humans don't need an intro here. I posted this over at rpgmakervx.net a while ago, but forgot to add it here.

The Fianna:

A group of mystics who were exiled after they were accused of the execution of the SummerIsle clan in E.C 738. In a rage, the citizens of SangReal tracked the Fianna down and burned many of them at the stake, accusing them of witchcraft and deemed heretics, since they did not believe in Fonteini's teachings, preferring to practice their ancient arts. The few that do exist through Elendia are noted for their hatred of humans and are quick to anger. It is advised to never look a Fiannan in the eye when making an accomplice, as they consider it a sign of great disrespect.

They resemble regular humans, with the exception of their striking eye colours and slightly pointed ears. They are tall, proud and graceful, and are well-versed in the practice of medicine and blacksmithing. Indeed, the four weapons wielded by the Founders ( Cruiadin, Leochain, Caladbolg and Gae Assail ) were forged by the Fiannans. Their knowledge in medicine is extensive. Legend has it that any illness can be cured if one befriends and helps a Fiannan.

Now, as you may have gathered from that last paragraph, the Fianna will indeed play an important role, no doubt thanks to a certain green-haired priest. ^^

- A brand-new world map to traverse.
- Several new areas to explore.
- Virtually every item ( like cabinets, counters, shelves ) can be interacted with. Same goes for open barrels, crates etc.
- Some objects in the game may prove to be an obstacle in some missions. How to get rid of it? Look below.


Siglud, the game's resident Boisterous Bruiser, will smash anything in his way as long as he is equipped with the rare Sledgehammer.

- A creature campaign where you can fight optional bosses for extra koruna and rare items.
- Several new audio tracks. I think out of the 31 tracks in the game ( not complete ), only 2 of them are from commercial games. Makes up around 84 mb alone.
- Battling is fun, fun, fun!!! ^^
- More gorgeous visuals ( ^^ ) like updated battlebacks edited from the VXAce RTP.
- Skippable cutscenes.
- Sound room, so you can listen to the audio tracks in the game. :) This will be evented and accessed from the main menu.


So, that's it for now. Thoughts? I so badly want to share all of this with you, but I can't do jack until I get my PC back. ><
