It would've been easier to show five images captioning them with "...and then they started fighting", but as the saying goes: show don't tell. Easier said than done, but the grind for the action part of the scene is pretty much completed. For reference, the last few days and weeks I have occasionally spent eight to ten hours a day working on getting a five second animated action scene together. To be honest, that shit always takes an absurd amount of time, but once I see it all put together, I don't doubt that it will be fun to play through.

Now things should get less complicated. The aftermath, and at the same time the end of the scene, is near. That leaves us with a handful of reworks left, and plans for some fun repeatable scenarios during the game. For example: Continue Pepper's lab "DNA donations". Choose a reward for your fellow raiders in the overpass settlement after they come home from a raid. The mentioned sparring with Shani, and hopefully more are still on the list.

I know that we are already in October, but as I mentioned before, the update comes with a decent amount of new content, a prettier early game, some amount of code rework, and a Steam release on top. As it happens, there are too many things piled up that needed to be done. Let's call this a special release, and hopefully not something I have to deal with again going forward.

The stress of putting the content together is one thing, but not having to worry so much about your support during your wait is something I am always very conscious and happy about. So thank you for your loyal support and patience =)
