Winds of the Destiny
WOTD - v0.12.0 now available for Paladins!
Hello everyone!
Wow, we’re already almost halfway through 2024. Personally, it feels like time is passing faster and faster.
Today, I want to announce that version 0.12.0 is now available for Paladins and higher tiers!
Related to this, I also want to clarify that due to the extensive process involved in the WOTD remake, the next public version (that is, version 0.12.0 for everyone) will take much longer to be released.
However, in the coming months, it will be available to Archangel tiers, and then to Angel tiers, and it will remain exclusive to these tiers until the first version of the remake is finished.
I also want to give you a sneak peek at the three new redesigns I’ve been working on these past few weeks: Elaria, Valery, and Beatrice.
These characters were chosen as the winners of the polls, and of course, there’s a lot of information and content about the new designs and future plans for each character in the exclusive posts. I’m also creating a nice profile for each of them in the #Original-characters channel.
Although all this hard work is exhausting and consumes almost all of my day-to-day life, the truth is that it’s very fun, and I love seeing the beautiful final results.
I hope you also like and are surprised by these changes in the characters' appearances. At a glance, you can see that I’m trying to replace a cartoon style with a more realistic and sophisticated one.
As always, I would love to hear your opinions, and you are all invited to join this long, fun, and important process of redesigning the characters, outfits, maps, etc.
Oh, and don't forget to join the Discord server to stay up to date with all the news about my projects.

By the way, I’m still looking for someone with basic knowledge of Photoshop or editing who would like to help me with a few things.
That's all for now!
Farewell, and may Ceina bless you! ❤

¡Hola a todos!
Vaya, ya casi estamos a mitad del año 2024, personalmente siento como si el tiempo cada vez estuviera pasando más rápido.
¡Hoy quiero anunciarles que la versión 0.12.0 ya está disponible para Paladins y tiers superiores!
Relacionado a esto, también quiero aclarar que dada la particular situación del extenso proceso del remake de WOTD, la siguiente versión publica (es decir, la versión 0.12.0 para todos), tardará muchísimo más en llegar.
Sin embargo, en los próximos meses llegará para los tiers Archangels y luego a los Angels, y se mantendrá para esos últimos hasta que la primera versión del remake esté terminada.
También quiero enseñarles un vistazo a los 3 nuevos rediseños en los que he estado trabajando estas ultimas semanas, Elaria, Valery y Beatrice.
Los personajes elegidos fueron los ganadores de las encuestas, y por supuesto, en los posts exclusivos hay mucha información y contenido acerca del nuevo diseño y de los planes a futuro para cada personaje. También estoy creando una bonita ficha de cada uno de ellos en el canal #Original-characters.
Aunque todo este arduo trabajo es agotador y consume casi todo mi día a día, la verdad es que es muy divertido y me encanta ver los hermosos resultados finales.
Ojala que a ustedes también les guste y se sorprendan con estos cambios en el aspecto de los personajes. A simple vista se puede ver estoy tratando de sustituir un estilo cartoon por un estilo más realista y sofisticado.
Como siempre, me encantaría saber sus opiniones, así como también están todos invitados a unirse a este proceso tan largo, divertido e importante como el rediseñar a todos los personajes, outfits, mapas, etc.
Oh, y no olviden unirse al server de Discord para estar al tanto de todas las noticias acerca de mis proyectos.

Por cierto, aun estoy en búsqueda de alguien con conocimientos básicos en Photoshop o edición que guste en ayudarme con algunas cosas.
¡Eso es todo por ahora!
¡Hasta pronto, y que Ceina los bendiga! ❤

Shame I liked the old Beatrice better but I guess the people like the new one.
I Like the others thought it's very good 👍
I'm glad to know that you like the other two redesigns! And I'm also glad that you like Beatrice's old design, after all I dedicated work and love to her design at the time ❤
I can imagine how much work went into the redesigns of the characters but to be honest I think they looked better before. Elaria didn't change much from what I can tell but I liked her old glasses better.Valery looked professional before. More suiting her personality imo but the new look she looks like some trashy secretary that's trying to hard. Beatrice looked like idk I guess a mom but the new look makes her seem like some middle aged gold digging office worker. I mean it's your project and it's up to you to do what you want with it, but if your planning on redesigning more characters I may have to stop playing the game. I really am not a fan of the new looks and I'm afraid of how bad some of them are going to look by the time your done.
Either way I have enjoyed the game till this point and wish you nothing but the best of luck with your game.
I appreciate your perspective! And of course, understand your initial reluctance towards the new changes or designs. Indeed, it feels somewhat strange to me as well, having spent a couple of years working with these designs and style. However, I am confident that I will soon acclimate to it, and in time, if the remake turns out as I envision, most people will grow fond of these new designs and styles.
Regarding your observations about the characters' personalities and professions, I provide detailed explanations in the Patreon posts when I present a new design. The changes are not merely aesthetic; most secondary characters will undergo significant transformations (some more than others). This has been a point I've emphasized in my recent announcements on the Discord server. There will be numerous changes, not just to the characters, but the core essence of the game will remain intact.
As for Elaria's glasses, it is a subjective matter. However, I found it fitting to remove her oval-shaped glasses since I am contemplating giving Clyde glasses of a similar style, though I haven't fully decided yet.
Valery's original look was based on her being the owner of a clothing store, but that will change. While we will still encounter her in the store, she will now be a simple employee and will have many more jobs where we can interact with her.
With Beatrice, I aimed to make her more closely resemble her daughter, Yuri. Previously, she was portrayed as a busy secretary, but I decided to change her profession to that of a lawyer. This change makes her cold personality much more logical, and she will continue to be more focused on her work than on her daughter.
There is still a tremendous amount of work to be done for the first version of the remake. Regardless of whether you end up liking it or not, I wish you the best of luck too! And I'm glad you've enjoyed the journey so far ❤
