ZOMG! Tuesday update, can you feel the love!?
Support me and production of the LoQO games at - Patreon
Sorry for the slight delay, but I got a bit of an information drop here!
Let's begin with saying I've finished the basic map work for seven different locations for episode II so far, those include the village of Arlon, Immemorial Glade, Tower of Descent, Uncle's Ranch, Serenity Bridge, Valley Checkpoint and Desert Checkpoint.
But they still need to have enemies/NPC, lootable stuff and such added before they are completed.
I've also completed the first full scene and one mini-scene this week, the later was meant to be included in the first episode, but I didn't had time to make it back then...so chances are you've already seen the CG for that if you're one of those who datamined the game. ;P
The Beldorian Forces will be more fleshed out too in the next beta with new ranks, introducing Imperial Archknights and Desert Legions, on top of those Beldorian Knights and Paladins we had from before.
I'm also setting up for a new villain duo that'll be a bit of a Borderlands homage, a crazy midget baron and his near speechless-dumb barbarian queen who has never shown her face...they will be a fearful outlaw gang currently occupying an ancient castle that you will eventually take over for yourself, as Origin's improved version of the mansion from LoQOI or Greenfield from LoQOII. :3
And it seems like I'll have to drop what was supposed to be the new voice for Adult/Teen Farah since the voice actress hasn't been replying to any of the mails I've sent for months, no explination given, but she is still doing work for Studio FOW so I have no idea what is going on with that.
Anyhow, the weekly update is over for this time!
The barbarian queen sounds interesting. Will she be getting her tits out? I'm just imagining a female version of a Giga Lardo.
ReplyDeleteBarbarian Queen:"Grr, Mungo smash with tits".
You might not be too far off, she'll be the dumb brute kind of character...she might not show her face, but there is a high chance her tits are always in the open. XD
DeleteGood to know.
DeleteI like to think that the hero will give her a mirror and even if she's an ugly brute, she finds herself beautiful and has a nice happily ever after.
Hehe, I'm still on the fence if she will ever show her face or not...some mysteries should be left unanswered. ;)
DeletePlot Twist: It's Sophia the Prostitute from LOQO I, she just got really into lifting weights and got amnesia when one of the weights she was benching hit her on the head.
DeleteYou can never be too hung for Sophia, that girl is a pro.
DeleteThat's a shame about the VA. StudioFoW is making 3 things at the same time and I think she is their main VA. :/
ReplyDeleteEven if she were the busiest person in the world, she could still at least tell me she didn't had time, or anything...really.
DeleteYeah of course. Kinda sucks when you see someone is proffesional and you would think they'd act like that, but then they don't.
DeleteIt is what it is. :3

DeleteBut that would also require 3D models to be made from scratch, and I'm pretty sure Studio FOW doesn't do personal projects.
DeleteDidn't you have those 3d pictures for the special gallery in loqo 2? Well you'd have to get the creator's permission assuming they even still have it. I guess the only way is to have a fan make or have someone make 3d models and try to win of their raffles for a scene
DeleteI think that they have some equal 3D-models for your game already that only need a little "make up" for it. For example "Queen of the Jungle" looks like Farah.
DeleteAnd at "Patreon" (https://www.patreon.com/fow?ty=h) they said in "Raffle-Bot Upgrade" (1 999$ per month) that they can do any fantasy with their models in 2-3 days.
Maybe if you ask them they will give you a good answer. It will be great if you try it.
Omegalock, just any 3D model won't work, those seen in the game is completely different than what is required for movies since they need bone structure etc. for those.
DeleteNikolay, $999...? Erm, no, I know someone who'd do something just as good for $100. xD
No, no! They said about the opportunity of making 3D-fantasy in their Patreon-profile under Upgrade that is 1.999$ per month. Sorry if my english is not good I can make some mistakes in that language.
DeleteI'll attempt to clear this up.
DeleteGabe, Nikolay is talking about one of studio fow's milestone goals that has already been reached (it was the $1,999 goal, they already have $9,800). That goal introduced the raffle that they do where if you win you get to ask then to make a short animation of whatever fantasy you want for free.
But Nikolay, they said that they can only do models that are available in source filmmaker.
So Gabe, Nikolay's suggestion is to ask if they can rework their model for their queen of the jungle movie/flash game since she looks like Farah and can be altered a little to look more loqo-ish.
But it's still a raffle, so I might get super lucky with two slots in two months...or it can go years without even coming close. xD
DeleteGabriel, what a hell?! You are the author of the great and famous game! Also you have a Patreon-money. I think if you speak with them and give some amount of money -- they do good work for you. The raffle is for the gamers but not for the colleagues.
DeleteI just played the flash game and I have to say she could pass for a tribal teen Farah :)
DeleteI also saw on studio fow's blog that they released the nidalee model on sfmlab so it could be possible to change up the model a little to look like Teen Farah and make an animation or twoif you know the right people or have the talent
Maybe a fan out there will make one for fun? :)
DeleteAny chance you can get the original Farah VA back on board? If you did a kickstarter just to raise funds to pay her, I think everyone would contribute!
ReplyDeleteHonestly I'd like a new voice actress for Farah.
DeleteNow i can't get the borderlands midget voice out of my head, and the ancient castle sounds cool i heard mtv is really interested. And sorry to hear about the communication problems, but hey nothing a shotgun firing exploding swords can't fix!
ReplyDeleteIt would be pretty evil of me to troll everyone by making the midget baron the only male character in the game with a voice, AND give him the Borderlands midget voice. xD
DeleteHa ha...you wouldn't, but still i got to say that would be some quality trolling.
DeleteAs long as the trolling doesn't involve pretending to delete save game it's all good.
The villain roster ist getting pretty crowded... Even in the second game we had seven major villains, looks like you'll try to outdo that. Always fun to guess who'll end up dead and who will changes sides. Though it looks like being female raises the chances of the latter.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Villains, any idea when we'll find out how Neena has been? Like, can you say if you're gonna tackle that in episode III or maybe VI? Unless her friendly host gets majorly nerfed I'd say it's gonna happen pretty late in the game.
Origin is no where close to LoQOII in villain count, that one had Rüghart, Altum, Bastorahl, Lord Kross, Richter, Melforas, Osira, Seth, Neena, Eclipse and Valencio. xD
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, we will eventually meet Neena again and see what one full year of being Eclipse's mare has done to her... >3
Dammit I hate time travel. So did Adult!Farah, Opala and Osaira go into the past or did Teen!Farah head into the future?
DeleteTeen Farah went into the future.
DeleteWell I didn't count Neena since she never had any chance of doing anything villainous due to Eclipse but I have no excuse foor forgetting Valencio.
DeleteSpeaking of him, will his relationship with Osira ever will be explored?
He seems totally devoted to a woman who he knows is a backstabing snake and it looks like he's the only one who does not desire her sexually. Will there ever be a part dedicated to how their bond came to be? I'm just really curious about that.
the mini-scene, can you tell me who is the girl in it ?
ReplyDeleteTeen Farah. :3
DeleteI'm actually looking forward to a Scene with Gabrielle and the protagonist. Whenever Gabrielle is involved it's usually just someone taking advantage of her yet in a comedic way that you almost don't feel bad. So I'd kinda like to see a scene where she has sex simply because she likes someone or is falling in love.....or if you plan to skip the mushy stuff and just make them sex buddies, I'll take it how I can get it :3
ReplyDeleteHmm...Doesn't Kythe ramming her in Highland Inn count as romantic? ;D
Deletesure did :P.Gabriella falls in love with anyone(and anything) she is having sex.
DeleteHahaha, I guess Kythe counts. Actually the more I think about it, it really was the most romantic thing I've ever seen her apart of lol. But I definitley need some action with her and the protagonist soon cause if not she would be the biggest tease ever. Especially since in my play through Kythe hasn't touched Gabrielle, I let him get some action with me and teen Farah instead. Usually I'd like to have the girls for myself but Kythe is cool. Ain't no fun if the homie can't have none.
DeleteHehe, well don't worry, Gabrielle will be getting some of that protagonist cock, that is a promise. x3
Delete*\(^o^)/*
DeleteI'm sorry but I started laughing when you said "new villain duo that'll be a bit of a Borderlands homage, a crazy midget baron and his near speechless-dumb barbarian queen who has never shown her face" I just can't stop imagining a Borderland scene with the midget on the barbarian queen's shoulders yelling something like "hit him in the face! THE FACE!"
ReplyDeleteThough I am curious of the outcome from getting a castle this time.
XD
DeleteSomehow my brain just pictured Master and Blaster from Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome lol WHO RUNS BARTER TOWN?! :D
DeleteHehe. x3
DeleteWhen will the donations for the next episode beta start?
ReplyDeleteEither last month since it's possible the next beta will be out in the next week or so, or at the end of this month.
DeleteDoes the Tavern Wench Challenge work properly on episode 1? I have replaced all of the posters and tried to do both of them and its always just a few people there and only 1 cup gets filled. Or is that just how the early ones go?
ReplyDeleteMaybe you missed the important part in the tutorial about it only being available at night? ;)
DeleteAs i said :"tried to do both of them and its always just a few people there and only 1 cup gets filled" and seeing how you don't even get the option when its day would mean that i am well aware of that :P
DeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteWithout completely spoiling things... you say "both of them" which implies you only did two. The third one might go a little better...
DeleteOkay, somehow I read that as you weren't able to trigger ANY of the Tavern Wench Challenges, thus my reply. x3
DeleteI was going over some stuff from LoQO2 and I just realized something... is it ok if a speculate a little about the plot? I'll try to be intentionally vague, but feel free to tell me to shut up and/or delete this comment otherwise.
ReplyDeleteIn origin ep 1 we see a certain empress accompanied by a certain um.. "horny" companion, who you said is from a certain country that could be described as "savage."
In LoQO2 there was an optional ending involving said empress being er.. "transferred" to said country...
So does this mean that ending is now official canon? If so, that's an awesome foreshadow/reference, but also a dick move by Kai. ;D
Hehe, nah, none of the bad endings are canon.
DeleteIt's not confirmed or denied at this point, so it's up for change, but I don't think Osira has been in the Land of Savages yet. :)
Ah ok, thank you for putting up with my random theories. :3
DeleteOne thing I hope becomes canon though is the red-hair/black-outfit version of Kai, because it's the one I used it in the wiki banner. xD
Finished episode 1(will play again later lol). Got a couple questions tho. Somebody said you would release 1 episode a year(I think it was a year but cant remember)but your progress seems to be going pretty fast based on your latest update here. So will you release episode 2 as soon as it is done or wait until deadline? second question will this have a gold edition we can download for free later like LoQO 1 and 2? And if so what will it add to the game?(Don't worry about that last question if you worried about spoilers tho I don't mind a bit of spoiling lol)
ReplyDeleteHow big are her tits?
