Hi, everyone. Happy Lunar New Year! Welcome to the first developer's diary of the Year of Snakes.
As mentioned previously, we got a lot of snake-related content this week.
First, we got two more types of snakes in the game.
You may find those blue Water Snakes in some moist areas, such as the Sewer of Liu, while those Mudscale Snakes will appear in cave areas. You can turn them into your pets if you wish. Each of them may come with their own unique traits.
Meanwhile, a new type of enemy known as the Serpent-Men Infiltrators have infiltrated and trapped in the Abandoned House (a.k.a anomaly UPEX-5182)
If you don't want to go to those locations around the world to find them, they will also appear in random locations generated by the Wonderland Travel Agency. The Agency now has a new enemy theme, known as the Snake Entities. All maps with this theme will generate all kinds of snake-related enemies mentioned above, plus those already in the game.
Of course, they don't necessarily have to be enemies. The second big update of this week is a huge improvement on the "Snake Worship" tenet. If you have this tenet in your customized faith system, you can now find some more beneficial effects it has.
You can now spend devotion to turn snakes into your pets directly.
You can now spend devotion to pacify them.
Each type of snake may require a different amount of devotion for you to take those actions.
That's not everything. During this week's updates, we also finished another part of the Dark Elf King's story, and here is something for all our fellow ancient Stone Age players:
The return of Marifirya is on schedule. Get your pets ready if you know what that means. :D
To make this a reality, we also just got a massive map expansion all the way to the South of Dana, where we will continue many of our major storylines. But before that, I will work on some more machine creatures.
The Dark Alley of Liu also received some updates. The maps continue to expand to the North, and you can now convert those gangsters to follow your faith. At the end of the new expansion, it's another building holds a well-known local urban legend of China to be revealed. (You may already find its document in the local Public Security Bureau office.)
That's for this week. Happy The Year of Snakes! More snake-related content and some of the things I mentioned above will come the next week. The Spring Festival is temporary. The glorious evolution of NEOLITHIA is eternal!
