Version 5.1.0
Loyalty & Royalty
Faith, Betrothal, and a possible Omen.
It’s here! Version 5.1 completes the main storyline for the first Chapter of our final Act.
In the process of doing so, we’ve cleanly sailed above one million words of dialogue and narration – that’s two Lord Of The Rings trilogies, plus change. Congratulations to my fellow writers, editors, and codesetters!
The astute amongst you will note that a handful of our faction leaders and minor characters don’t have Act V content yet. These are in progress, and will be added before Chapter Two commences. Maybe keep a save behind?
With all this done, I am going on an extremely-needed holiday. Work on patch builds and our next update will continue in my absence, but let’s call September a quiet month.

- This is our last build before our long-awaited foray into Act V!
- We are working towards a v500 release date on the 29th December 2022. If something terrible happens, and we have to delay the build, we’ll do that – we’re not going to ship you a half-assed or broken update. But that’s the plan, and we’re on target to meet it.
- We will continue to update Acts I-IV with new content for free, but Act V is and will be exclusive to people who support the game. If you have enjoyed Ravager so far, and want to experience Act V, please join us on SubscribeStar or Steam. We are dependent on your generosity to keep development going, and finish what we have begun.

- The stowaway strike option appears in the correct menu.
- Chanwe’s kobold scene will unlock correctly in the Gallery.
- Marie-Anne’s kobold scene will unlock correctly in the Gallery

- Assorted stage direction improvements.
