Welcome Volunteers! Some exciting news coming for phase 4!
It's been a month or so since I update you all with what's been going on and today I hit sort of a milestone in creation so figured it was a good time. This is sort of going to be a brief update on progress and a showcase of al the replica, plus Alei's and Aer's, phase 4 looks. Plus the reveal of a brand new character coming to Series Shores in phase 4! Our favourite detectives estranged wife, Jordana Way.
Firstly, progress update on phase 4!
I'd love to say phase 4 is reaching the end of it's development, but it all really depends on time. The good news is I'm getting pretty darn close. All the replicas main stories have been complete and rendered being ready to go. Leaving the only thing left to work on being the true routes and The Xiao trials.
This phase you'll be seeking out the replicas in their homes where they are most likely to open up to you about what it is you truly seek, The Mother. With time running short and Alleyne on your back you become more desperate than ever to through your test and hopefully make it home. Who with though is still your choice.
- Cherry Valentina - This phase you'll visit Cherry seeking answers about The Mother, but things become strained when she offers up a sacrifice instead.
- Aiko Sasaki - You'll find out how Aiko's history played out with the mother last time they met this phase. But what were her motives and is she motived enough to help you?
- Alma Way - Alma story separates this phase into two phase depending on what you did last phase. She'll either seek your help to end a killers threat or you'll seek her aid to blow the test wide open. Only question is, does she trust you?
- Kiyomi Sasaki - While you've been out running around Series Shores, Kiyomi has been doing some sleuthing of her own. Does she know? And how do you know she knows? one of you is making moves this phase.
- Freya Valentina - Freya's been living a quite life in Series Shores and doesn't want to leave. She'll open up to you about her past and it'll be your choice to decide her fate. Will you allow her to stay behind in Series Shores?
I'll post a few pictures below of some phase 4 renders, a sneak peak at what's going down this phase.
I did consider releasing phase 4 with out this two add-ons, but the true routes are essential to certain story paths some have taken and honestly, with there only being two replicas left this phase, the update would feel short without them.
Content wise, this phase is anything but short, with all the varying paths you may or may not have taken, plus true routes, phase 4 will have a bundle of content. If you're only playing one route though? It would seem smaller in comparison. Hopefully that makes sense. Which is why I would love to hve all the content good to go before the update, so with the Xiao Trails and true routes, there's more to seek out and enjoy.
Phase 4 brings about a whole new selection of outfits for the replicas to show off!
Not all are listed here, but below is going to be a sneak peak at how each replicas is going to be looking this phase. Along with Aer and Alei. Seeing as you're going to be conversing with the replicas while they're at home resting. Thought it's only fit they have the outfits to match.
All of these renders, in their original forms, are available in 4k over on my patreon. Plus over 200 other 4k renders. Not trying to push people over there, but if you fancy a look it's there.
You might have noticed a familiar yet new face at the end there... Well Alma had to get her unique beauty from someone, that someone being her estranged wife, Jordana.
If you've played through any of the true routes you'll know the real women of Series Shores have come to play in town. Unlike those four characters who are locked behind true routes, Jordana is coming in the main storyline. Whether she's there to help or hinder you is yet to be revealed.
A celebrity model, one of the most recognizable faces of the new world and an all out badass, Jordana Way survived both The Fall and The Mother's war on New Los Angeles. Only to disappear into thin air weeks after. Where did she go an why?
That's all for now Volunteers! Once again if anyone wants to get in touch and ask me anything or has any opinions, feel free to let me know. Until the next update, thanks again Volunteers.
