I LOVE that you incorporated the 5th unpicked member into Parting the Waves narrative! It's what I've been requesting since the beginning

I just saw a livestream of Parting the Waves, and I noticed that the flavour dialogue refers to the 5th member not being with them, and in the finale the 5th member is the one who helps the rest of the team escape.

I wish this was common practice of all maps from the start.

Like if in Horn of Magnus and Empire in Flames, it’s revealed the infinitely spawning exploding barrels is being brought to the area through the efforts of the 5th member. Or in Trail of Treachery, you lighting all the braziers is what triggers the 5th member to unlock the cabin and secret cavern. Or if in Righteous Stand, it’s the 5th member who raised the secret exit and waiting for everyone from underneath.

I hate it. This way the elf is always there…

I’ll never understand why people hate Kerilian so much. Her Scottish accent is hilarious.

It’s because she’s mean. Nobody understands that it’s her coping mechanism.

Because she is an elf. Elf = bad. And also usually players who play her are not actually the team players…

That sounds like an old stereotype to me. Nearly every Kerillian player I’ve met has had excellent teamplay, just as with any other character.

hahaha yeah, that was a great thing to see

I kinda don’t like it because I wish they’d increase the team limit from 4 to 5, and just increase spawns when a 5th player joins. Misfortunes mod, for all it’s issues, plays great with all 5 players and it’s one of the best things about the mod.

1- Annoying players are more annoying if they use elf: friendly fire, no team play, they want only green circles, etc, etc.

2- I also wanted on each mission to listen an excuse of why the 5th hero is not wit them, that makes you feel more inside the story/game.

3 - I forgot what I was going to say next, so I keep this until I remember 3rd point, lel.

I think the general excuse is a mix of vacation + keep guard duty if i recall the dialogues and journals right.

@Frostysir Yes… that has a lot of sense.

EDIT: No sarcasm.

They should put the remaining member at the end obelisk always on every map, saying things like “where have you been?” “I thought you wouldn’t make it” “you don’t want to know” and such.

I love it. Especially if FS can pull off 80’s cheese
