BG2 Completed Mods > Kelsey
Finally I'm back to Kelsey and wondering...
Ankhesenpaaten:
Since the Overhaul, is there any new content? From the Readme, I don't think so, but then maybe it wouldn't. I recall reading posts of a few things that people would love to see, such as Kelsey romancing a sorceress and acknowledging it, and also a way to gently break up with him.
Is there new content or is the Overhaul basically just the combining of SoA and ToB into one package? I'll play him again anyway, but I'd love to know since it will determine whether I load him up right away or wait awhile.
Also, maybe someone else may want to know. I hope I didn't miss an obvious answer somewhere. I'm not always that observant even when I try to find an answer. :-[
jcompton:
V3 and V4 were basically just technical fixes and the unified build, yes. There is definitely merit to making it easier and less abrupt to get out of the romance, but tweaking Kelsey now feels a bit like trying to alter a house of cards. If I start tearing Kelsey's dialogues apart, I know I'm going to see things that make me cringe and that I really, really, really want to change. And alter. And probably remove outright. And before long there wouldn't be anything left. Like unraveling a sweater.
Sure, I could follow a rule like "I can only add content, I cannot take any away" and that might help, but then I'd be getting a headache. So I turn away and do other things...
I'll look this over again when I have a little free time and see if, at least, I can add a few extra replies of the "thanks, but no thanks" variety.
Ankhesenpaaten:
Thank you for the answer! I'll "play" with Kelsey anyway! ;) It's been a while.
I get the feeling you mean. I write fanfiction these days and when I go back over something older I also see things that I'm tempted to fix or just plain delete.
If you ever do add content maybe you'll just need somebody ready to slap your hands if you try to remove anything you find cringe-worthy. :D Remember, tho, none of US think it is! We've loved him for years and won't stop now.
And you, too, Jason Compton! You made romance (other than Anomen) possible. We are eternally in your debt. *bows*
:)
jcompton:
Awww, thank you. :) But it should be remembered that Solaufein was the first published Anomen alternative.
I will think on the updates.
Kulyok:
I liked Kelsey a lot, and I think it's great. Additions-wise, maybe a few extra player-initiated options just to make the player smile? "I'm a sorcerer, too/Got some of that honey left?" Something like that.
Of course, now that most non-romanceable characters got long and verbose player-initiated menus, you'll probably be asked about THAT, too.
