Alrighty then, guess I'll be the first to comment this time 😌

It's clear you upgraded quite a few things since your previous chapters (and not just the graphics). Really liking the new battle scenes and even the gore (that heart ripping part was pretty bad*ss). The angles, poses and post-processing effects are well done. Great job on those!

New Arlan so far really does seem like a more...reasonable person who is simply affected by a curse. Not decent, by any means, but reasonable. Of course, the fact that he acts as Kitten's guardian in the reboot gives him just a bit more points in 'likeability'. Harald and Kitten's dynamic is adorably comical and I am hoping we'll get to see more of them.

Your writing seems to have improved as well, though you still miss an occasional spellcheck error. The humor and pop-culture references are as amusing as ever.

Looking forward to seeing how the story will unfold this time around.

Wonderful first re-imagined chapter.  Thank you for sharing it with us. 🥰

Aye, making it a curse instead of harritage is a thought I'm arguing about since I started to write this. It would make things simpler (And I hate to write daedric descent.. Way too long of a word and Deva didn't came on that good.) Cursed Motherfucker rolls off the tongue tho 🤔

You will^^ like I said, they are a very useful tool for exposition. It makes it easier on me and the readers since I don't need big walls of texts inside the actual story. If I need to explain a lot, I will also make entire entrys just with them randomly appear in skyrim and start explaining stuff. Catsplaining If you will 🧐

thank you. I noticed a few later but forgot to correct them >,< I give Imgbox partly the fault here. Site gave me a hard time today >_>

But also thanks for telling me, I only can promise that I will try to get better at it in time 😅

I hope to entertain you with what I am planing to do in windhelm. It will hopefully as funny as it will be lewd

You're very welcome, I am always happy when people like what I write  ^^

This was an interesting "first" chapter, i guess some of the old characters are going to be reintroduced? (like Zuri here)

The visuals are excellent, the enb did a great job with the character skins, the combat scenes seems a bit better here and the bodies? Let's just say i enjoyed watching those glorious melons bounce!🥰

Personally liked the elf thief's outfit and (o )( o) (even loved Zuri's cleavage but you already know that🤣)

Patiently waiting for the next chapter!🙏 (As always.)

(What enb are you using? PRT, Enhancer? Looks so clean and natural)

Yes that's right^^ Some will however, may be a bit or more different and a few will be edited too to fit their new roles^^

Right? took me a little bit of tweaking but I think I got got it right better than last time. But the textures around them also make a big difference and make the whole image look more constant in quality. Before that we had 8k characters, 2 to 4k outfits and 1k background. The backgrounds are what makes the pictures look so clean 😃  And I try to not go too high on the outfits to keep it that way 😮 dunno, if I have to, a few 4k ouftis are in there and don't seem to look off

No not this. I am using this one here

In combination with Obsidian Weathers and Lux for everything. I did make a few major and minor tweaks to it however as it starts of very dark. It's more of a gameplay ENB than a story making one. As you surely know, what you want from a game when you really play it and what you want when you want to show people things can be entirely different. Like I love dark and scary places, but nobody would be able to see anything if I would use those things as dark as they're intended to be

Thank you for the links! Maybe one day i try setting up SE again (the TBD body kinda pulls me there)

Yeah i know how dark an enb can be in night time/interior cells. When i started using NLA enb it was very dark inside dungeons houses etc. even with a torch/lantern. It was drove me nuts but a few tweaking at the "Color Correction" section made everything better.

I personally like using 2k textures almost on everything but sometimes the little background things wich not that important are 1k.

(My VGA is kinda old, only has 4gb vram so some sacrafices need to be made 😐)

Aye, for me it was Gamma and the overall ambient lighting.. Altho I seem to have to do something about candles now. they kidna reflect on skin weird 🧐

I know the feeling x,x I made a lot of compromises with my old rig and just started not to do so many anymore.  👀 But I try not to get too greedy. (Skyrim is a wonderful optimized game.. Yep yep.. )

Glad you finally got everything together! 

Arlan is still a fucker and kitten is still kitten. some things never change. 

🤔

I am placing a bet that Kitty will be devirginanalized before the third episode. Great new episode!

thank you very much ^^

My congratulations to you, now you fully entered the vicious cycle of restarting and rebooting. 

While this gives you a pleasure of creating, be aware, that this curse will strike you again and again. 

Heh, but jokes aside, good ol horny Arlan, in a new style.

Great stuff!

Sometimes I like change, sometimes I struggle with it, still undecided with this one. Guess I shall have to reserve judgement, but holy batman ... Harald looked "hmhm" before, now he positively looks like a dork. 😛 Not sure if it's the face or the clothes ... probably both.
Technically, it's certainly a huge lift graphicswise. Hope it also works better for you. Although still not sure on the male skin you're using, I think it might be a tad pale and smooth. Or maybe it's something else, but it often looks flat, especially in bright lights. It's much better in less well lit scenes.

He is nice right?   Before he really looked like a lazy town character x,x So I used the limited powers of my sculpting on him x,X

smooth as hell, super fast and reasonable buggy like skyrim always is but not bad. A huge difference in loading times 😮

Aye, I saw it while working on the next entry. I dunno what it might be

I am undecided. On one hand I like it, especially how many Npc's look. Maybe I will make a few test scenes after the next chapter
