Carnal Instinct changes
The next Major Content Update is now here - Return to Wased-Heq (UE4 Sabu). This update brings 4 new major quests, a dungeon, a new playable form, sex scenes and more!
Return to Wased-Heq
The Old UE4 area is now available as a playable area! It's our biggest expansion yet and it's still a work in progress. Future updates will continue fleshing it out in the coming updates bringing reworked old content and new! We hope you enjoy revisiting the old docks, buying stock from Kahi and trying to stay on the good side of the Anubite watch.
This is a mid to late-game area and therefore you might find that the enemies and challenges here are much harder than on Medhen or Tal'Senet, come equipped with potions and some spells!
New Anubite Quests- Greener Pastures & Diamond in the Rough
Continuing on directly from Crossroads - Amhak and Amansi are making their way to the Great Temple of Anubis to meet with Nepthys and you're invited along. After completing Greener Pastures and getting yourself settled, Nepthys has more work for you to do. Start the quest either by talking to Amhak outside the Taberna or find him outside the Temple of Anubis yourself.
NOTE: This will make Amhak's Sex Scenes outside the Teberna no longer available.
I won't spoil much but for those who played UE4, you can enjoy a revamped Diamond in the Rough Dungeon, defeat the Void Titan and new challenges. Given that Nepthys is very busy she leaves a Concubine there in her place in the Evenings, which after the quest is complete becomes available for brand new Dynamic Sex Scenes, which work for all Forms.
New Quest - Justice Never Sleeps
Justice Never Sleeps has been added, to give Inquisition of Bast players the opportunity to complete their version of Diamond in the Rough. Start the quest by catching up with Tefahra in her hideout under Tal'Senet.
NOTE: The Voice Actor for Tefahra has been unavailable for some time and so instead of delaying the quest, it's gone live with no voice acting for her part, this also meant slightly modifying the quest (this will be updated at a later time).
This also gives you access to a hideout storage for IoB and a shrine which gives you special buffs if you pray to Bast.
New Side Quest - Tales of the Void
Defeating a void Titan and obtaining the Ritual Vessel of Q'tesh for Diamond in the Rough and Tales of the Void means the return of Esi, Khaba and of course the Void Daughter! She's been remade for UE5 and is now playable with new cosmetics and customization. She works with all female clothing options but Tattoos and Makeup doesn't play nice with Void Skin yet(They're very sensitive!).
Enter her Void Dungeon during the quest to obtain the Form and the Void Khopesh you'll need to defeat the Void Titan.
You'll find the Void Khopesh post quest a very capable weapon, dealing basic and Void Damge to all attacks.
New Weapon - Bast’s Eyes
Raging fanatics of the Inquisition have made her way over to Wased-Heq as well, these ones attack with reckless abandon and have no interest in whether or not you call yourself faithful to the cause. Defeating these tough enemies will give you a chance at obtaining their unique twin-bladed weapon Bast's Eyes.
New Sex Scenes & Characters
We've been hard at work making new Sex Scenes available for you all and new Characters to interact with:
Front Cow Girl is a new Scene that's available with Mera and Nepthy's Concubine, allowing you to be Ride or Hop on top in intimate poses.
The Void Daughter has brand new Sex Scenes based on your Form which take place in the void Realm and makes interesting use of the portals which they have a talent for.
New Scenes per Character:
Void Spirit - The Void Spirit Desires for your Physical touch and now has three new Sex Scenes depending on your Form, if you entertain her enough she'll reward you with the Void Khopesh you need.
Asman - A well meaning Anubite Priest who you can assist in being on the receiving end of performing a truly holy ritual.
Nepthys Concubine - After Diamond in the Rough, you can have this Croc Futa concubine serve you in any way you desire.
Bored Anubite - A fan favourite from UE4, this bored Anubite Guard who should be out with their cousin will happily sit on your face to pass the time.
Mera - Mera's Romance deserved some love and has received Front Cow Girl in addition to her existing bent-over-table scene
Ambient Sex Spectator Mode Update
While we work on more Ambient Sex Scene content mentioned in the last update, we've added a spectator mode for you for you to better Enjoy the existing content in the world without any disruptions. If being a peeping tom isn't for you, don't worry, we're still working on the swap-out system that's coming in a future update.
New Semi-Flaccid Feature
Those who despise wearing pants rejoice! The new Semi-Flaccid option is now available for those who enjoy flopping in the wind. This has been especially requested for Equine and Canine options, allowing you to hang down to your knees and distract the passing strangers.
Combat, Weapon and Potion Changes
Pahnu's Bow - Briarpath
Pahnu's bow felt a little underwhelming given it's a weapon of a Demigod, this has been changed. The Bow now magically enhanced your arrows making them scale with Arcana giving them bonus damage if you're going a mage build.
Potion Changes
Potions now have a cooldown and cannot be drank immediately nor one after another, this means you'll need to make some space in a fight to heal up and then get back in action.
Combat
We've done some more balancing to boss health, enemy health and resistances, the game is overall a bit more challenging and we'll see how that goes based on your feedback and continued play-testing.
Misc
There's always lots that I miss with these update posts including bug fixes, new enemy types, performance improvements, streaming improvements and more. Here's a fun one, we added the ability to sit on chairs! Find these chairs hidden around the world and enjoy the view(more chairs to come)!
Coming Next & Patch Notes
What's next? We plan on fleshing out the UE4 area as soon as possible, so expect a return of more new and improved quests in Wased-Heq bringing back characters we're missing from UE5. We're also working on new Character Art which we'll be revealing in a later blog post/update post.
We hope you all Enjoy the latest update and please find our full patch notes below!
