Its as simple as using real world logic to apply to a fantasy game.

Example being if i was dating someone and they chose to lie for months about their family, their job, basically there life and everything I knew about them, it would be extremely difficult for me to trust them again about anything and would probably irrevocably hurt the relationship forever.

They might be "justified" in how they are acting with their own predicament in life but that doesnt excuse it. I can see how people who self insert into games can make that ruin a character for them.

Eh Rae is a succubus hoe. Some amount of treachery and backstabbing is expected of them.

This is definitely where I'm at in my play-through. I'm on like, day 400+ and like with a good book, there is emotional investment in the characters after so long. As the MC, there's levels of trust that have been built on over and over again. For a sandbox game there's a ton of playtime investment and getting to know the characters trapped in the house, especially if you self insert which I unashamedly do. Rae's actions being purposefully deceptive for so long is a pretty weak excuse for a normal person, let along a near immortal being. There were many chances along the way she could have said something.

Ultimately, it's a fictional character with motivations only as logical or strong as the way she's written. But since we make the choice, we're roleplaying how those choices make us feel. Rae's initial choice to be deceptive (Especially about being in some Demon Supremacy Sect) robbed the MC of how he might've made different choices along the way. Sometimes you can't unring a bell.

Guys I need help.SMt I wish there was a WT for every game lol. One of the strings in the house just broke. Does that mean I need to use my time more efficiently?
Alsow what would you recommend as an order for doing quests? Usually I progress all the characters until I can't anymore and then procceed with the main story to get the most content out of it. But sometime I feel like I missed out bc of what some characters say. SO yeah if anyone got an advice on that, I'd be thankful.

I hope MC gains some actual powers at some points bc traveling between is cool and all but if it's to end up dead or bullied by ppl in the wrong one it's not so cool lol. I also hope we'll get to keep the house running and prevent it from disappearing. I mean, while letting the othes go back to their world ofc but making it so they can come whenever they want that'd be cool.

No. The strings breaking is colour for now. There's no actual running clock.

I tend to skip updates for a while and let new content build up for a playthrough, but you are more than halfway depending on where you are in the personal stories.

The first snap is about where the dev started to add secondary actions like more world travel with the different women, the effects around the house that lead to alchemy, and more intense personal stories for Naomi, Rae, and Cait.

Hi there,
I would have liked to read it from this thread, but it contains a lot of spoilers and I'd rather find out what happens by playing the story. But I'd also like to know, as I seem to be way behind having just started playing, where, from the images below, I am in the progress of the current update in terms of percentage.

why? Rae is a coward even with near immortality, at best she is near immortal coward.



a Question about the new update, why were meaningless clips in Rae's story? are few animation easier than images and more Story?

Every quest stage has a different length to it, so a % is hard. Each character has a main line quest (their story), and a primary sex-related quest series. That side quest line can be useful to advance certain things, and change dialogue, so I've included it based on the name/hint given by characters in the game. (e.g. Rae talks about building trust; Caitlin talks about being a good student; Lyriel talks about being a good servant; and Yona wants to be a good wife.)

As of 0.7.19 there are:
  1. 27 main story quests.
  2. 27 main line quests for Rae. There are 8 'trust' route quests.
  3. 25 main line quests for Naomi. There are 3 'femdom' route quests.
  4. 31 main line quests for Caitlin. There are 6 'student' route quests.
  5. 30 main line quests for Lyriel. There are 7 'servant' route quests.
  6. 13 main line quests for Yona. There are 3 'wife' route quests.
  7. 14 main line quests for Blair. There are 6 'toy' route quests.
You've got a fair while to go before you hit the end of the content.

Just remember that sometimes there are small steps in their quest lines leading to big things. The biggest examples of this, without giving spoilers, are when Rae wants to play with origami, and Caitlin's 'archives' event. (The events themselves are not what they sound like, and you'll know what I meant when you get there.) But the steps leading into them are fairly short. (Rae's origami event is long, and is a trigger for events that just took place over the last two updates, so you will get the idea of small into big.)

If you want to do all of the side content, there are probably another 100+ quest stages amongst the girls and collective household.

Well, as Rae would probably say, thank you very much, kind sir. But seriously, thank you for that very detailed answer, I couldn't have asked for more. Yes, as for the side quests, I'd already noticed how easy it was to miss them, especially with one of Lyriel side quest in the kitchen, and it's even less easy now that all 6 guests are present in the manor. Much appreciated, thank you.
