OMG You're beta testing already!!!! I seriously can't wait ^_^; I have no idea what sort of pc I should make for this when it is through though. Usually I play some form of thief though in anticipation of certain plot points though... but I don't always want to play one. I wonder if there are special dialog options for a fellow bard? ^_^; Sorry just so excited I can't think straight.

^^ I support this because I mostly play a thief as well lol I'm curious to know if there are any class specific dialogues planned. Also, can't wait for this to be released <3

There is definitely some class-specific dialogue scattered throughout the mod :)

Just sent out beta 3 -- we're definitely making quick progress!

I'd also like to show some love and appreciation for this absolutely wonderful project!
I haven't been this excited for a mod.. ever, and since your Sarevok is basically the only romance that I actually liked from the beginning 'till the end, I just *know* that Haer'dalis is going to be just as amazing! :)

SoA Beta Update: We're poking the last few imperfections to death currently, no estimate on a specific release date, but not too far off now. :)

ToB Update: Back to writing, progress will start chugging along once more thanks to an overactive muse.

So exciting! I would have loved to help beta test but am a bit time short (stupid work). I can't wait to play this~

Do you know if it is best played with a new game or could you load a save game prior to finding Haer'Dalis? (like say a save at the end of the first dungeon)
I scribble and I chirp, wait no. I mean tweet (infrequently). And sometimes I tumble about as well.

Ooh, good question. It would be nice to have a new game saved and ready to go for Haer Dalis' imminent arrival. I am so freaking excited! :woot:

^__^; Still not sure what class to roll for this... hmm I'll probably take Imoen (I just can't not take her ^__^; ), Haer'Dalis (Obviously), Anmoen (because I want to see the romance conflicts), Aerie (because I love her to death ^__^; ), hmmm going to need a tank.... either Minsc or Keldorn... Minsc is hilarious and awesome but Keldorn can use the sword whose name I can't spell... soooo... what do I play as? Or should I play a tank and replace Minsc/Keldorn with Mazzy I don't use her as often as I want to. Hmm or should I use some different characters... I've always wanted to take Jan but I never really got around to it... and I don't tend to use evil characters because of the whole keep rep below 18 thing... Edwin is hilarious though XD I think I almost died laughing the first time I did the netherscroll quest. Obviously I will be using Yoshimo as a placeholder for Imoen until spellhold. (pity there aren't any other pure class thieves... I can't ever get the transfer in trilogy to work it just freezes up instead of playing the first cutscene so all my attempts to either keep Imoen as thief or make her a thief/mage with her thief skills set exactly to my play preferences has utterly failed.)

As long as you haven't picked him up yet in the save, that should be fine, yeah. :)

Oh, good! I'm glad you answered that because I didn't have a clue. :P

I know this might sound odd, but there's no specific romance conflict with Anomen in SoA. Hopefully when you play the mod, you'll see why that is. You can romance Haer'Dalis while romancing any other character. ToB, however, will definitely have...some fun bits, both for Anomen specifically and for a PC who's courting multiple partners in general. :shifty:

Some of the companions who do interact with the romance in SoA are Jaheira, Minsc, Viconia, Yoshimo - and if you have Romantic Encounters installed, Haer'Dalis has some things to say about a few components of that (including companion encounters). There's class-specific stuff, but nothing that would make any one class worth playing over others.

Yay! Thanks for the quick responses, guys! Adjusted my parties accordingly. :devil:

Another question: Will the mod be compatible with the Haer Dalis romantic encounter? I mean, technically, as it will most definitely be immersion-breaking, at least. :wacko:

XD great now I'm going to have to go through it twice with a pc who only romances HD and a pc who is more... loose XD. Out of curiosity does it conflict with any other npc romance mods? Currently I have Xan, Edwin (which I may need to upgrade if its updated since I installed it quite some time ago... XD never even played it for some reason, guess I'll do that once I finish my Xan romance run while waiting for HD), and Adjantis (can't wait for some ToB content for that one ^_^; the quest to save him was interesting)

Yes, the romantic encounter will be disabled if you install the Haer'Dalis romance.

It should in theory be compatible with other romance mods, yes.

Hmm... I know there won't be an Aerie conflict because like you said he wouldn't be cruel and lead them both on, but it would be nice if there was at least some Aerie related dialogue ^_^; Like maybe her asking you what you thought about him and your answers will cause her to support you? I dunno I'm a little attached to the little songbird. Aerie and Haer'Dalis are my favorite characters out of the new characters for SoA. (So is Yoshimo but alas I cannot keep my only pure thief)

I guess this isn't the right place to ask but yeah ^_^; sorry about that. And as its already in beta testing its probably too late but meh I had to ask so yeah sorry for wasting your time reading this ^_^;

Oh, not a waste of time in the least! Because of the way Haer'Dalis' romance works in SoA, a lot of that stuff fits better in ToB, and since I'm still working on that part, it's good to get feedback on companion interactions. There will be more of that stuff in the second part, possibly a lot more depending on the type of relationship HD has with the PC. While I won't claim to be particularly fond of Aerie, I can assure you that she has not been left out. :)
