Stat-wise, taking the dark tome gives you +2 to Courage and Cunning, and +3 to magic. Story-wise, I don’t believe there are any negative repercussions for taking it, and in Ch. 02, if you have it, you can use it to research Black Sun yourself (though that section isn’t in the game yet). Off the top of my head, I can’t recall if it’s been brought up in the story beyond that point though.
Mhmm! Like I mentioned, the option to research Black Sun on your own isn’t in the game yet (I think right now only Shery can help you with that), but in the coding for researching on your own, you either need at least 35 Arcane, or you need to have the dark tome (which is super handy for low-to-no arcane magic MCs) in order to succeed (once the option is available, of course).
Thanks for confirming that there doesn’t seem to be any further mention of the tome after that; it was late o’clock when I checked, so I was a little worried I might have missed something.
I took the book (because of course I did, duh), and I haven’t found a single use, reference, or repercussion for doing so in the demo so far. I even tried using the “rest in your room” option during an off-day, because when you pick it up there’s mention of you taking the time to study it in peace, but nothing.
I just finished the Demo. Bloody amazing is what it is. I’m ready to forget it all and experience it in full when it’s released.
Then again, I’m not.
The save and reload feature - that’s present only in WIPs - seemed like such a gift. The freedom to know I can save and reload at any point lets me enjoy the story so… Freely.
Does anyone else feel like the save and reload feature should be available in released games as well? And not just checkpoints, but save-at-any-point?
It basically was lol. The “good” ending with the ethical path was kinda cool but I didn’t feel like the ending was different enough to call it the “best” ending.
Just understand, Prihine is really a throw away character. Most people let her die or at best use a word of power to save both her and Caine. So there will be no romance and very little interaction throughout the story. I know there is one planned ending where if the MC romances nobody else they can get an ending with her, but not likely a true romantic ending.
No your race is Mage, I know most people think of mage as a profession or class, but in this game it is a separate race and it is your race. You were just not raised by your own race, but by another of the races.
Currently, NG+ isn’t available, though that will be an option once the game is complete. At the moment, I believe the public demo goes up to the end of Ch. 03 while the alpha preview is in Ch. 07.
New here and Just finished reading the demo its pretty amazing and I can’t wait for the next update so for now I’ll be rereading it again! Love how the story goes and keep up the good work stay safe!!
