- Thread starter Droid Productions
- Start date
The original version? Shipped to steam in Dec 2020.
I then did a minor refresh which added more animations and more VFX shots in 2022 (while I was doing Book 2).
Then just now I pushed NG+, which is a Persona-inspired update that lets you start Book 1 with an end-of-Book 3 savegame, and the game changes in a bunch of little ways. Also adds in 4 new quest-chains, and updates a bunch of smaller things.
Yeah, book 1 was done like 3 1/2 years ago. Book 3 back in September.
The book 2 update's just smaller bug-fixes; the big one is making it work on MacOS Sonora.
The Book 1 update's a lot larger; you can see details here

I also include Player-prev.log. Also should probably add that I currently replaying 3 book, cause I didn't expected NG+, and deleted my saves. So if I need to do something specific, just say.

Droid Productions, just an FYI that your beta testers may have already caught or maybe it's intentional... Anyway, random encounters like running into Katie at the bookstore or Emily at Starcuck's now take up a time slot. They didn't before. Overall, the book 3 engine and the new graphics and short intro animations are awesome in book 1. I love animated Paths and the new card back design rocks.
On purpose; they used to be random, which pissed people off. They're now entirely deterministic (if they can happen they do), but in return they take time.
Glad you enjoy the upgrade, it was nice returning to Book 1, and I had a lot of fun touching up all the various dialogs if you're playing in NG+ mode.

I suspected it might be intentional... I'm a greedy gamer so, tend to avoid things that don't advance my character when possible. Maybe consider tossing in a charisma point along with them? I put my old LoM file in a backup folder and started fresh. What can I say? I love this story and it's a nice game for whiling away some hours.

Steam builds on beta/development is updated. I'll push it to default once I'm sure I've gotten most of the weird stuff
Wiki's the best, but I don't think it's fully updated yet (it's fan maintained)

This one one of the first VNs I played back before I ever found F95. Purchased it on steam! Maybe I'm bias but this is still one of my favorite VNs and one of the best stories in one of these games. The only thing I disliked were the lack of proper animations so I never played Books 2 or 3. I'm glad to see that some have been added! Since I have really fond memories of Book 1 it's Time to hope back in and experience the entire story and finish this quest!

Droid Productions, I caught the fever so reloaded my old save to start an NG+ play through. I see what you are doing in the dialogue and it's great! Here's a small catch for you: after talking to Katie at her gym on the morning of day 3 MC returns to his room to set up his gems. He is still saying that Katie gave him some. "I can't believe Katie just... gave me these gems. I should spend some time working out how they fit into the staff." I think you meant to change that to something about Katie explaining how the gems fit and where the hell did he get so many of them?

Yes, you are biased but that is ok! Because when it comes down to it, we each have our favorite game and heavily biased towards it <3 There is nothing wrong with that.

I haven't finished the game - haven't even finished book 1 in fact - but upon loading my save, it thinks it's in NG+ and talking to Chloe or Jenny results in their first meeting events even though at the same time I've got a date with Emily and a quest to save Caitlyn to get ready for.
