After several weeks w/o patches, Jorb reports that the conversations with the trees are almost ready, but they need a little more time. A new bird is added to the game (a snowy owl, the model is taken directly from the first game about a wizard boy from the first playstation). Hat of the patch is just another top hat reskin.
-- Early August 2022. The long-awaited patch with trees conversations is coming out. This patch also contains such minor changes and fixes as: removal of sieges from the game, in order to drink from a flask, now you need to manually open and close the cork in a small mini-game, FEP has been increased on whale dishes (spawn has been reduced), now in the hs section you can set your pronouns.
Tree Conversations are old quests plus a reputation bar for the given quest giver. The players did not notice any special changes in the mechanics.
-- Whole August 2022. Every two or three days, Jorb posts on the forum about new changes and content additions to the tree convo system. Nobody knows what he is about. At the end of the month, a patch comes out that adds colored palisades.
-- September 2022. Developers disappear from the forums again. Their last act was to appoint two new moderators: MadNomad and VDZ.
-- November 2022. A certain player reports that he has almost filled the relationship bar with the local tree. A critical bug has been found that allows you to again arrange sieges (palisade sections from one of the types of trees were vulnerable after charging the ram for 21 days). MadNomad goes on his 12th break. VDZ is finishing the third post on the forum.
-- December 2022. The tree relationship bar is full. The interface has changed. Now it shows not only the attitude, but also the mood of the tree, as well as several other bars, the purpose of which is unknown. You can communicate with the tree on given topics, or ask questions in the text field. Screenshots of some of the tree responses have been removed from the forums by Jorb.
The player shows a few more features (the tree knows when you are online, and if you tell it your hs, it can write to you in a PM), then he disappears from the forums.
-- January 2023. Jorb appears on the discord, and does a small AMA. During the process, it turns out that he and Loftar moved to New Zealand for personal reasons, and have not been involved in the development process since August. When asked by OСO, he replies that we will find out everything in the near future.
At the end of the month, a strange post appears on the forum. It is left by a newly registered user. He introduces himself to IRL as a friend of the guy who has been farming a relationship with a tree for several months. He says he doesn't know the details, but that dude burned his computer and moved to the village. Before that, he told the following that the trees began to influence his life too much.
-- February 2023. Loftar post his first (after almost a year break) message, that he fixed Nvidia crashes. The game began to issue a low frame rate on Radeon video cards. On Intel cards, all colors began to be displayed incorrectly.
A post appears on the forum stating that the default client can no longer be removed from the computer. An investigation by several cybersecurity labs showed that the client is also self-copying and spreading over the network. Client files access application data and password registries (using fragments of the code from puruspasta client). Users whose data is stolen receive blackmail letters that require them to return to hafen and start doing quests.
Players finally realized that they are the objects controlled by the objects.
--May 2083 World 14 announced.
