Update

[Meira]

Hello!

I know it's been a while (to put it mildly), but @Darios and I are tentatively looking into the possibility of Amber ToB. No promises of course. But we are alive and kicking.   

On the positive note I had more writing done that I remembered. Much, much more. The flipside is that I remember next to nothing about anything.

Salutations Meira!  Glad to hear you two are considering looking back into her.  Even if new content doesn't ultimately get released I'm sure you'll enjoy going back to your writing, IMO Amber was one of the best written Baldur's Gate NPC's, mod content or otherwise.

Amber is indeed one of the best, so an update would be exciting!

[Meira]

Aaaw... Thanks!  That's a very nice to hear. 

[Demoneq]

Whoah. Not that I was posting much, but welcome back, Meira. And good luck, I'm hoping to see Amber ToB one day.

[Guest Alinia]

I played Amber way back when she was first released (and had her in my party many times after that), and admit that I still check back every few months to see if there have been any updates. I am glad you and Darios are still kicking! No pressure, but if you did end up finishing Amber, I'd definitely be over-the-moon. In the meantime, she is a welcome fixture of my annual SoA playthrough.

Oh my gosh! Seeing Amber for ToB would be a dream come true, if it happened! She's definitely one of my favorite mod NPCs and probably my favorite of the female ones, full stop. As someone who can't NOT play as a female Charname, I always loved that Amber could potentially romance P2. Not only is the mechanic a great way to squeeze an extra romance into a playthrough, I always thought the fact that it's a romance without the angst of all the Bhaalspawn stuff made it uniquely appealing and refreshing... Not to mention Amber lets you actually characterize a player who isn't Charname. ANY content that gives a second PC a voice is already a cut above the rest, in my book, but it helps that Amber herself is a complex, interesting character that I always wished I could learn more about.

Hopefully this project comes to fruition, but even if it doesn't, it's great to see you guys haven't forgotten her! We definitely haven't! Good luck!

There is a more extensive content report in ToB thread, but currently @Darios is slowly proofreading and editing text that I have written. We are crawling, but not dead I guess?  

 

 

[jastey]

Yay to crawling! Crawling comes after laying and leads into walking, so that's a good thing!

[Psionica]

Am looking forward to the TOB for Amber also, I romanced her b4 and taking her into TOB w/no dialogue was odd.

[Guest Fina]

Oh how wonderful to hear that this mod is not dead and that we may yet see the ToB-portion of her story one day! Best of luck to the authors, we are cheering for you! 

[Lightbringer]

Fantastic!
I've always wanted to try Amber, and with ToB on the horizon my party will finally be complete

[Guest Matteo]

I can't believe it.

I never thought that Meira would return to work again with her mod.

This really warms my heart.

I have always loved Amber's character, her voice (truly, whoever voiceacted her was really good), her romance, her story...

I have always taken her in my Adventures in BG2.

And it was always so sad to have to leave her on ToB.

Now finally we can end the Tale with her in the party.

And maybe, hopefully, ToB content would be plenty: because the main problem of ToB is that the game is driven more by battles than plot or dialogues. It is unbalanced, unlike SoA where you could find a lot of battles but also a lot of plot, sidestoryes, and such. In SoA we could litterally spend hours only walking around and talking to people in the maps. I loved that.

 

So, welcome back Meira. I do really hope that you will make you gem shine even more brightly! (P.S. i hope you will add more voiced dialogues too)

Shes my 2nd favorite Npc to romance mod wise after Fade (Which I'm doing a 2nd time). I played thru Amber about 3 years ago, used her all the way thru SOA, took her into TOB and although no voice or content, kept her till the end.
