Content
As for me, I added the NPCs to the new area of the slums, just like planned. I am slightly behind when it comes to Gaspar, as I want a scene to play out if you meet him again and agree to go with him. He'll probably have more content related to him in the future, as I think I'll make him your contact with the underworld, eventually. I am still trying to think about what to do with Intelligence and Willpower, but I think in the end I'll have to forcibly remove them from the game, as annoying as it can be (having 3 variables which are all related to dialogues, and which keep spilling over to other systems is just not good). Maybe I could salvage the whole thing by keeping intelligence and willpower strictly related to dialogues only, and switch the content to check for inhibition everywhere else, but that's the only compromise I can think of which would be doable.
Anyway, for the next week, I'll pick one of the unfinished routes to work on, and flesh them out a bit more (probably one among Carla, the vampire or the queen of hearts content). I'll also see if I can squeeze in some work on the next temple (so that I can slowly work toward expanding the main storyline).
Finally, let's talk about the giveaway! I decided on who'll be the winner this time around... Admiral Cheesecake!
I'll use his idea, and twist it a little: without giving too much away, I'll eventually add a small village which is ruled by a fanatical sect of the cult of the Goddess of love and fertility, and when her holiday comes around, they tend to have more "extreme" celebration, which an outsider might not expect, especially at night...
