Our coders have spent the last week and change trawling through the bug reports forum. The war against the bugs is never ending, but Drake and Leek and Zag did their part! Thanks to everyone who’s been reporting issues, as always!
0.6.17 Patch Notes:
- You can now talk to Jael’yn about her sword, and find the missing charms. Each charm you find empowers the blade further. (By Skow)
- There’s a new Shamanic-themed Wayfort furniture set for sale. (By Zavos)
- The Effigies in the Old Forest have been revamped after you subdue their mom. If you killed her, they disappear. (By Tobs)
- A whole wagonload of bug fixes, some courtesy of Zagzig, including but not limited to:
- Hotaru’s talk option no longer blanks out.
- The Brint/Cait BJ scene now requires having had sex with Brint before.
- Pure Genova no longer shows up in the centaur village when it’s corrupted.
- Fixed some inconsistencies with re-caging Ryn.
- Fixed Berwyn knocking you up pre-BQ2 and it acting like you already’d done so.
- Fixed a lot of broken or missing text and tons of typo/grammar corrections.

And if you’re the kind of person who tossed the sword, the console code to give yourself one is: pc.safeAddItem(ITEMS.CaptainsGreatsword)
How do you enter the console codes on PC?
From my understanding only with the in browser version, with the browsers dev tools/ console, that allows you to edit/inject code.
F12, or crtl-shift-I
Oh cool, hoarding all the unique items coming in handy
Heads up, looks like the name of the weapon was changed to songstress’ blade at some point, in case you can’t find it in your storage.
Edit:it only changes once you ask Jael about the charms.
These backer patches are getting pretty bare compared to a few years ago. Almost no new content to them at all to warrant being a backer anymore imo.
Can’t prove it but I think there is less contributed content then before while the prolific writers have either moved on or gone on to do larger works for the game.
That’s mostly right. The era of tons of eager community writers has ended, the majority of the writers that remain are paid staff, some of whom do commissioned work on the side.
On the bright side, what few community writers that emerge now tend to produce more content over a longer period of time, in contrast with the old days where people would write half finished characters and then just move on.
I take some measure of responsibility for this due to working on a massive project and nothing else for what must surely be a year or longer (the brint/brienne family expansion). It took much longer than I expected and for a big portion of that time I wasn’t really contributing much elsewhere. Still, it’s 99.5% complete so you can expect to see more of my writing in other places soon enough.
You and theobserver are 2 of the GOATs and I love all the work you’ve done. Brienne is easily my favorite character and this is my most anticipated expansion- thanks for all your hard work!
I completely agree.
Same here, I really want to see this content again and do repeat visits. This is the content I am actually most eager to get back into. While the Greatsword with the charms was one of them, the Brint/Brienne content is easily my fav followed by Arona, Evergreen, Lumia, Kas, Maia, Wynn, Khor Minos and everything inside the Wayfort.
I would drop cash right now just to get that sweet, sweet Kalysea content. Just glad you’re still with us. Nothing but support.
I also think its unfair to fault yourself for there not being a greater amount of content going into the game. That’s a lot of pressure to take onto your own shoulders. It’s not all on you, and it shouldn’t be.
You could corrupted the centaur village
Just attack the chief instead of helping him, that easy
So the Captains greatsword already hit like a truck. DOes this mean it might outdamage what I’ve been using now?
Minor typo fix here I accidentally fat fingered the O key then whoops. And for context I’ve been using the Ashelander Since I dragooned Azzy. Before then I used the Captains Sword non-
stop
any Idea where the fifth one is located? the one found in ancient times. A warmth in colds abode? Im at a loss as to where to look for it. The rest were pretty straight forward.
I haven’t done the deep digging, but a warmth in cold’s abode is probably somewhere in the glacial rift. Just a guess.
It’s at Ashe’s Lair in the Harvest Valley.
but I already got that one. The one at the hive, wayfort, brothel, and the Ashe’s Lair are the ones I have.
The last one is the gargoyle lady in the caravan that can set up in the wayfort
Nevermind, I’m an idiot, it’s the Khor Minos brothel…
Can’t go there for some reason. The reason most likely being that i corrupted Azzy and rejected the Eve chick. She gave me dialuge about how no-one can kill her now or some shit and it basically just became a waypoint. Rip me I gues.
Will there ever be more content involving the Unitaur? I wish we could have kept her around!
She actually just gone some more content (for the pure route through).
Is anything being done with the jackal eared fig or is there a different transformative for the anubians? I’ve looked on the wiki for how to transform into one and it leads to a dead link.
Probably the wrong place to ask this but is there a transformative for anubians? The wiki says jackal eared fig, but it’s not a valid link
So does this mean I should bother finding typos again? Because the last time I took the time to comb through and write down a bunch of typos, when I brought it up to the discord everyone seemed all butthurt and in denial about it even though I was pretty chill and understanding, and it took a month just to get a few of them fixed.
It’s kind of important to have as few typos as possible in a text game. But people don’t seem to take the time to run the submissions through a basic spellcheck sometimes.
I understand that as a screen reader user, I notice things sometimes that a sighted person’s eyes would likely just skip over, but like, aside from the art, the text is your graphics, your audio, your everything, so it needs to be high quality if you’re having people donate for backer builds IMO.
The game states that typos should be reported, and their is a thread on the forums about it, but even though typos are very easy to fix by just searching for the sentence that contains them in the code, and I already put asterisks around the misspelled word to make it easier, apparently it’s not really a priority at all given how long this took.
I understand that obviously their are much bigger bugs and new scenes to write, but this takes very little time and a volunteer could easily be asked to just do typos and nothing else every month or something.
It’s simply demoralizing when you try to help, and honestly kind of screw up your own experience because your looking at the writing so critically rather than just playing, and yet it takes like a year to have anything done about it and you get told off for even trying, despite the request for help.
Either way though, thank you for fixing them.
