Hey guys I found the super secret 5th Guild!

View attachment 1200446

Turns out that not everyone can be a magical hero. Did you really think a whole city and society can be inhabited by only adventurers and heroes? Ellesmere still needs people to actually work, support the economy and pay taxes. Looks like you'll be ploughing fields and hauling goods for the rest of the game!

Reminds me of what a friend of mine used to say. He'd claim that he remembered his past life in Atlantis. He was the only sanitation engineer for the whole city. Everyone else was apparently royalty (based upon what people claim). "A bigger bunch of Prima Donnas you never saw." That's why Atlantis sunk. Too many royals, not enough sanitation engineers.

It is intriguing however, how all people who remember "past lives" had interesting ones, never some common person just doing their job.

Absolutely Fantastic game, Thank you!

Glad for the chats about which guild to choose....I sweated over that for a while.... Finally chose Sorcerer.
IF there were benefits to belonging to a particular guild, then my next wish would be able to switch between them and master each one.

Since game is going steam now, does that mean less/no updates here?

The renders seem perfect, the game runs very smoothly on my medium/low end system. (onboard graphics)
I always mute the audio so don't know about it.

The sex scenes are perfect in that I can speed/skip them pretty quickly. Kind of wish I could make the Fae Girl mine or something other than her leaving.

I dunno, almost perfect game as it. Really.

Thanks muches...

Like someone posted a while ago, I feel like some dialogue during the sex scenes could improve them. I do definitely agree that the game is extremely well done, though, and hope that Glacerose gets all the praise he deserves for it.

I've actually been doing a run-through with a female friend, and we've been doing the dialogue out loud - she does all the female voices, I do the male, and the narration. It's pretty amazing that way if you have the opportunity to try it.

For what it's worth,
I would also love to have a shortcut button to my bed on every navigation menu, or somewhere.
Thx

Super awesome for PrimeGuy. Excellent, Excellent

I'd say it depends. I'd rather have good, sexy dialogue than no dialogue, but rather no dialogue than stupid dialogue. Problem as always: what I find sexy you may find not as great and vice versa.

It might just be that we all have memories of our past lives, but subconsciously block the boring memories, so only the people who had interesting lives actually remember them

Well, what I am angry about is: if he already gives us a chip to find our GPS location, couldn't he have installed some navigational software?

Anyways, about past lives, I doubt that selective memory would be the explanation because I am pretty sure that some lives can be very exciting while living them without seeming like that from the bare description, and vice versa. Also, the overabundance of people living in cultures the (not specifically interested in cultures) western world has at least heard about. It's Aztec princes, not Zapotec princes, let alone Mali princes or anything else from Africa or large swathes of Asia. We westerners always were European inventors in our past, never Middle Eastern or Indian or Chinese, despite at least as much happening there. With an exception for Ancient Egypt. Quite a coincidence that this coincides with the classic western history curriculum.

I think half of the world's population suddenly dying because they fell off a cliff or wandered into a lake and drowned would be a little bit too obvious.

Ya know, the ladies in this game, I think, are the prettiest of any I've seen anywhere on this site. Just incredible.

I was just looking up the Relationship points and saw that they don't really matter.
I have Celeste up to ~11 I think. At some point she is going to have to start being less hateful, right? Maybe next update or so. Not a night/day change, but at least a start.

Yep! Next update I plan to have some certain events that will make her a bit more tolerable. Same with all the girls, you'll start breaking their shells and figure out why theyre like they are

Just to add my two cents on the Celeste tsundere issue, the thing I find annoying is that the attraction between Celeste and MC is readily apparent, even to the characters themselves, but the charade continues. I just want to take control of the dialogue and make MC said "Hey Celeste, I know you like me and I like you, you don't have to put on the act anymore." and make the MC give her a hug and a kiss (and presumably Celeste would melt into a puddle). But the whole fake hostility thing just drags on. I don't really know if that's the appeal of the tsundere archetype for others, I personally don't read or watch any weeb shit (unless you count weeb inspired adult games), but I found it has overstayed its welcome, at least how it's currently manifested. Maybe shifting to Celeste being nice and lovey-dovey with MC, but she keeps denying and being defensive about MC to others would be better.

The game is great, and you wouldn't get such a strong response if people didn't honestly love and care about your work, so don't let it discourage you. Honestly the worst thing would be if no one had anything to say about your creation! Keep up the good work.

I'm as we speak retooling Celeste's dialogue for the V.024 update coming out tonight most likely. Should fix up some of the issues

V.024 will be out tonight!

- Rehauled navigation (fuck getting lost)
- Slightly smaller/more round textbox, better fitting dialogue size
- Quick menu moved to the bottom of the screen, AUTO button added
- Slightly reworked Celeste dialogue (less obnoxious)
- Slightly reworked Gracie dialogue (less naive)
- New relationship buttons (looks much better)
- New character last names (no more weeb stuff)
- Couple little bug and inconsistency fixes

Saves are compatible, and if you want to see the new dialogue without making a new save, just watch it in the Gallery!

Oh heck,
I wasn't complaining about Celeste's manner. Just musing that it was time for her to very slowly start mellowing out. I'm glad she was like that for awhile. It's fun interacting w her and everybody else thinks I'm crazy for putting up with it. lol

Also very VERY glad old saves work. I've been farting around and am up to level 12 or 13 in think now. Would be pissed to lose all that, lol

Does content unlock or something? I'm really confused with the 1.72gig file size but surprising lack of character specific stories. Like 2 or 3 events and that's all?
