Finally finished all the party relationships and side quests in Ch.4, as well as an ending cut-scene. Now I can officially recommend you start a playthrough. Happy New Years and all that shit.
There are 8 main characters you can recruit into your party, each with complex relationships and a ton of banter. You can romance 4 of them: 2 men, 2 women. It takes a lot more effort than it looks like in the following screenshot.
Gonna work on another Brigand patch over the next week, then a secret 3rd project the week after.
Complete list of changes:
-Finished party banter, romances, and sidequests in Chapter 4 (for now).
-Added final cutscene after Ch.4 ends where the baddies are plotting again.
-You must now do every single trog sidequest in Ch.4 to get the Trog Ally rep.
-Trog Ally rep now gets you lots of bonuses before Ch.4 finale (contracts, magic weapon, karma, wealth).
-Fixed a couple script bugs where karma would be set to value instead of increased for quest reward.
-Changed "Oakia's Lover" rep and achievement to "Shale's Lover" rep (more interesting).
-Updated "mapCopyFrom" command for new save file structure.
