No problem man, and no need to apologize.

Heh, well don't get me wrong, I'm all for incest, but holy shit that plane would be so fucking inbred after 3 generations.

The mages apparently can travel there as per the headmaster if you refuse to let them study you.
So I was assuming some migration counteracting that. (and that in a few decades you will be able to bring in people without binding them. that the binding is only for the initial girls because you are a noob magi).
Also. the different races of the 5 girls you marry would counteract the effects of inbreeding significantly.

Getting a bigger place, perhaps with some trees, would be nice.
But on the other hand that would likely also take a lot of time to do, so might not be that popular with the guy who makes all of this.

see

it can just be generic "forestland" and the like expanding ever bigger in quantity withiout visual representation except for the first buy. no need for the author manually creating maps.

 

[Konstantinus]

You've also got the weirdly elfish version from Isekai Meikyuu De Harem O. Pretty sure she was designed to appeal to loli lovers which is a bit odd since the MC gets a very slender loli-ish Elf as his last harem member but I guess the author wanted her to be the Tsundere of the group and didn't want to mash too many genres/types into 1 character.

Or it could be something completely different.

Though that dwars have pointy ears is a thing since Shadowrun.

 

[NoStepOnSnek]

The door next to the fridge can't be used (no hover highlight or click interaction) so is probably just there for aesthetic. But the downstairs door, if it's just a toilet then it's rather odd for it to be locked. Most of the rooms are unlocked as needed, like the other bath but would there really be a similar need that would prompt opening it if it were just a toilet.

MC mentions what it is when first checking out the house (which is presumably why the door has an interaction region) but I don't think Zanith ever felt the need to show the inside.

 

[BeenThroughHell]

well I can say this game is just absolutely amazing. From the girls, their own problems, and everything around them and Mc. And after these last few hours. i've been thinking about Cait's friends and also Lyriel's barmaids/friends, is there any chance of more "specific" interactions in the future updates? just give a subtle hint ZanithOne

Never played Shadowrun in any form so I don't know much about it, but pointy ears are usually associated with Fey creatures. Halflings are a toss up depending on the media in question, and while I've seen a few dwarves portrayed with pointy / pointed ears they almost always have your traditional "normal" round ones.

As for Sherry, it's not her ears as much as her frame that kinda weirds me out. I've never seen one portrayed as being so slender (aside from her ass). She's got the right height but aside from her steel-wool-like hair (she probably doesn't even need a helmet in combat) she's not really what you'd think of when you think "Fantasy Dwarf". Of course I guess that depends on your fantasy, in this case the MC has a "Sex Maniac" human racial job so you can probably imagine where the story often ends up.

 

[Forgotted]

Hey, she's a dwarf so doesn't need much room, stick her under the staircase in that closet....
That way we can still have another girl added down the road....

Sorry, just kidding...
Very excited to see the new girl, will be fun.

Cheers

I got the new scene Monday Afternoon (Lyriel in the kitchen) -> ask for her services -> sure -> that's the whole point -> ask her to go deeper.

Cant get it to work. Don't get the, "Thats the whole point". Doing it Monday afternoon, MULTIPLE ++times!

 

[Sir. Cockalot]

Happy new year everybody!

 

[AsuraJuice]

new version i pray

One thing I'm interested in in how much being railroaded into completing different quests will be part of the game, of if we'll be able to finish main quests while not touching certain side quests.

Because I DESPISE Lyriel. I've had my MC be as dismissive and distant to her as he could be, without being down right cruel, including denying her in her dreams, etc. I would like to make it to the end game without any scenes with her playing out. I'm curious if we're gonna end up with story quests that will require us to raise levels with her... or whether we can just utterly opt out of her (or some other character of our choosing).

I'm a big believer in NOT railroading character relationships, and I generally really dislike it when one character's progression is tied to another character (especially because it's frequently someone I dislike). Whether it's because of looks, attitude, or whatever, I want the freedom to be like "Yep, fuck that bitch, don't like her, don't even want her around." for all the games I play. So in that sense I agree with you.

That said, I absolutely hated Lyriel at first too, but she really, REALLY grew on me to be #2 in the house just behind Rae, so unless you just dislike (super hot) blonde elves in general, you may want to give her a chance to redeem herself. She isn't as prickly as she comes across at first. Eventually. And fuck me...those ear movements...

But hey, like I said, the freedom to pick and choose is one of the best parts of games that allow it.

i dunno, i hear pointy ears and i think romulans and vulcans....

wtf?? how can you despise lyriel?!? she's the perfect tsundere! she loves everything you do to her but refuses to say she does.
to me the top 3 girls are lyriel, rae, caitlin.
on another note i keep wondering about his sister's bedroom, will his sister eventually show up in the house?
i even hope for an 'onii-chan, you're fucking everyone but me, why?!?' sex scene hahaha

also as much cumming inside as i do, they should get pregnant!!

See, the weird thing is, I know she's written to be redeemable, as it were. So, in a future playthrough, I'd be all for going for her. But in my first playthrough, I want to pick choices that I feel are more... what I would pick (part of why, despite not being interested in her, I don't choose the nastier options in dialog). First impressions matter a lot, and putting myself in MCs shoes (keeping everyone sane, learning things to figure what is happening and why, stress of the situation, etc) I just don't have time for her BS.
She's there. Better she is complacent with her situation than miserable, but between other things that occupy MC's mind and time, and her behavior, he just is not interested.
It mirrors how I view people. I'm happy to be decent to everyone, but someone who acts like that, I don't care what potential lies underneath, I don't feel like enough of a masochist to tolerate the abuse and frustration to crack that shell.

Some Tsundere characters appeal to me, but not often.

I know, I know. It's a weird mindset to go into a porn game with. She's hot, don't take it so seriously, play it out for the scenes. But for characters I don't like (or, maybe more accurately, my MC is given reason to not like), in my first go, I'd rather just treat them with a "fine, I've tried to be nice and this is how you act? fuck you, then" mentality


On to other points?
While not every game needs incest... I'm also hoping sis shows up. And between Rae and the pirate (ouch, her name didn't stick, did it?) two characters have brought up pregnancy in some form. While not huge into that, as a fetish, in games that feature romance as a component to the story, I like the addition of pregnancy, so that could be fun.

My favorite girl is Cait though. Rae is a really close second.
I had actually hoped that Rae would do more to seduce Cait, and in doing so, be the one to help Cait open up to the MC, sexually, though. Love decently done lesbian content!

We're very much alike in our attitudes, and I usually vehemently despise tsunderes as well (I swear to God I'll stab Louise Valliere in the fucking face if I ever somehow get isekaied into her universe, and I'm usually a fan of the "Flat is Justice!" loli-types). I honestly can't remember exactly when I started to like Lyriel, but I did start feeling a bit sympathetic for her when we got more backstory and then I guess she just grew on me from there. Tsunderes are probably one of the hardest characters to write because they often come across as bipolar bitches instead. Lyriel started off tsuntsun and I think she's progressing towards deredere, it'll just take a bit.

As for the sister (wincest!) - you need to have mana to get to the house, right? Hence why Naomi (the pirate ) and the rest are able to go there and why they had that backstory about her being magical or whatever. MC is apparently an all powerful warlock, so maybe it runs in the family, but if it doesn't then I don't think his sis will be joining the harem. I'd honestly rather have Annie if we're going to "recruit" another earthling, unless the sister is a total smokeshow.

As for Rae and Cait, yes and no. Rae is, by her very nature, basically into everybody, but she has a sort of mentor / teacher / older sister thing with Cait so...I dunno, could go either way there.

The MC is an Oath Breaker?

In game they use the term Magi.
