(WIP) Path of Martial Arts: The Beginning (Dark, Eastern Fantasy | 884k words)

Happy New Year! To celebrate, here’s an early update =)

  • big event with the new RO
  • new Mei/LC event
  • some bugfixes (hopefully I didn’t break everything)

Size: 315k → 330k

Old saves should work. Haven’t gotten around to fixing Rock Gambling, Character Dictionary or Xiwen Prisoner path as of yet.

As always, if you want to read ahead/support me, there’s an early access version available (currently 349k): click

@fsix I think I fixed most of the stuff you pointed out, thanks for that

The saves from after you wake up from the coma don’t work

This was against KUKU

This just happened to me I was still early houtian but I had maxed out stats and the crown of imperial suppression and inner energy infusion active. May or may not be a bug

It’s not. There are a couple fights paths in the game that deal an ungodly amount of damage by design (this, kicking the bull in the balls, attacking Caihong etc).

Yeah, I’m aware. Don’t think there is anything I can do for now =(

That’s a little annoying granted it didn’t take me that long to get back to where I was still kinda annoying

You should edit the main post.
Jing Guo still appears as an RO while the new one doesnt, and the update log hasnt been, well, updated lol.

By the way, Nicky, do you think we could have an opportunity to change our character’s hair after waking up from a coma? Like, grow a beard or change the length of our hair or hairstyle?

… How do you get this? If you don’t mind me asking :eyes:

I should :joy:

Hmm… Noted, I’ll think about it.

Added ‘protected save’ option in the free roam. If you save there, this error won’t happen in the future. This is the best I can do for now, sadly - saves break if I update the scene they were saved on

While on the mission you receive from Ma Rin, don’t sneak in but enter the city officially, ask the city Protector to bring the merchants in. Sentence them to death along with their whole families, insist on it and when the Protector turns hostile kill her.

Today’s playthrough has seriously been the first time I’ve been tempted to abandon Tigress for another RO. My tinfoil hat theory is that the emperor’s kid thought the same thing about another dragon once and that’s why A) Ruo grows scales, makes dragon noises, has reptile eyes, etc., and B) his parents “went missing” shortly after his birth. Granddad found out his offspring was fucking a dragon instead of a shangtian and went all “You’re supposed to slay the dragon, not lay the dragon!” Then killed his misbehaving kin and reptilian in-law.

Aww the Crown of Suppression got nerfed. From 10% to flat -10 to stats. Sad ;/

This reminds me though – it’s not a bug per se, but there’s a handful of instances in the script of
*set fight_difficulty
which apparently didn’t get updated to the new attribute system, and like in the old version modify that value by ±1 instead of 10, which… well, doesn’t really have much of effect at all.

Did I mess up with no one at the meeting volunteering for me?

I was surprised one of the merchant options wasn’t just killing the family. Really happy I got to piss off Ma Rin by killing everyone though

I’ve been curious about this and I wanted to ask: will there be any yandere type characters? They don’t gotta be full yanderes or crazy but something slightly close.

Already are, you just don’t know it yet.
