Hey bud! Hope you are doing awesome cleahappy. We are well past the half year mark. 2021 will end before we know it, so the One Year Mission clock continues to tick. Will we succeed? Thankfully, the phase 2 update is on the horizon. Lets take a peek today, shall we? First, we have a cosmetic change. In Cleas Quest, many players took a while before they realized the Chaos Cleanser hints at where the next Chaos Crystal is located. You can look at the symbol inside for a clue, but this can be easy to miss. To remedy this in the next update: - The symbols now glow more brightly, and in more distinct colors. - The entire Chaos Cleanser will change colors to match the next realms.
Next, the final sequence of the main campaign has been updated. Throughout the chapter, you will take brief trips back to previous realms you had visited. The twist is, these realms will be afflicted with War Maidens curses. Please note, these new areas will only increase the final chapters length by several minutes at most. The goal is not to pad out the content. Instead, the aim is to introduce players to War Maidens curses. This will prepare them for Cleas Quest and War Maiden Mode, which will be added in phase 3.
(Blurred to avoid spoilers) Lets finish up with one more item. You see, the theme of phase 2, and this One Year Mission as a whole, is challenge. We had Cleas Quest, and we will end things with War Maiden Mode. These are answers to the top tier Clea players who destroyed the campaign with ease on launch day, and they demand to be tested. With phase 2, I have included a new challenge for you Clea masters. If you complete the main campaign with one save or less, you will earn a new dress, simply known as Gaia:
I had considered making the rule with no saves, but I have granted you a small act of mercy! It is up to you, of course. By all means, earn it with a no save, no 1-Ups run. Do it on Chaos, or even Chaos+. When players unlock this dress, I want them to feel accomplished. How you achieve that is your freedom. The phase 2 update will drop on Steam on August 12th. Please note on other platforms, I aim to combine phases 2 and 3, then release them in a single update. Phase 3 should be completed within the next month or two. Thank you for your patience, and please look forward to it. Thank you cleasunnies!
