Ren'Py A House in the Rift [v0.7.10b1] [Zanith]

I did not have the impression that Cait and Naomi are from the same world but now that it is mentioned it is a possibility.

About elves and magic, we are not even sure that all races are the same acros all AHITR multiverse. For example we Know MC can use magic but no one from his world beside him can (that we know of prior to the portal event). Elves from one world maybe can all use magic naturally while in an other they have to study it or it may be a natural ability only in certain lineage. Hell elves may not all look the same either depending on their plane of origine. the same can be said for humans and orcs.

 

[Hmm...]

Whether inherent or naturally talented that would mean she has both the potential and heritage. The one I was responding to implied she had neither.

And you are correct, I did in fact forget about the barrier. So that means each girl, not counting the succubus as she ended up stuck with us through different means (even though she seems to fill most criteria, even having a connection to the world in question), has some form of magical potential, were about to die when the MC caught them, and possibly come from the same world.

You can still throw Rae in even though she got brought there by accident. As a succubus she is born with magic because her world is right on an ether node. Magic is a very part of her being just like it is for all Infernals. The only other beings that we know that are like that are the creatures in the Sealed Sound which are sealed away for the good of everyone.

If they all come from the same world it makes me wonder if there is some kind of "Mirroring" effect in place as in this particular world is "copying" the MC's just with magic in place reducing drastically the progress in science hence why it's still medieval, after all when going in for a trip while teaching Naomi, we did come across a hooded figure that the MC seemed to know.
And if they aren't throwing us for a loop it seems to be a little tchekhov gun.

I tried out the new pre-reveal scene with Rae, and it's amazing. The old one definitely wasn't bad, but as what was I think the only scene in the game without animation it really did need updating, and it was great; I love your animations.

You just made me a realize that I never got the pre reveal scene 'cause I'm always honest with Rae ... Oh well .

The only problem with that would be Lyriel and Yona. If they are from the same world as Caitlynn and Naomi then it wouldn't be "Mirroring" the MC's world as he had said to Lyriel that elves never existed on his world and the MC's world is not the only lost world according Rae.
As for Caitlynn's world still being Medieval could simply mean it's a younger world as Rae said older worlds tend to become lost the more they progress with science. And if Caitlynn's world is around the same age or older it could mean they stopped their progression by rejecting science.
The hooded figure could be from the MC's world caught up in the same or similar accident as the MC just it took a different turn.

Well if a world goes by rejecting magic then species inherently magical or with a connection to ether would need to evolve to "blend in" it's basic evolution stuff but if your whole caste revolve around a certain need then either you loose what makes you different or well ... You die.
If we're talking in game lore it may have been possible that elves existed at one point but something happened like a war and they were written off the history book (history is written by the winners) plus more mirroring ""proof"" (even though at this point it's more fan fiction and all) is the magic book found by Cait in the library that had mistake in it like, it had some right stuff in it and if Cait was able to correct it, it could mean that her world and the MC'S would share the same "rules" .

Let's be honest here, at this point it's purely fan fiction and speculations, but I like what the dev is building at least it has enough misteries to keep me hooked.

 

[HogRocket]

I don't think my university world literature professor put as much analysis into Chekov's "the Cherry Orchard" as y'all are putting into a porn game

(just kidding, at least it's not breaking down into fist fights and death threats like on some other game's threads )

Chemistry is Alchemy with the Spiritual elements stripped away. Astronomy is Astrology with the Spiritual elements stripped away, most types of Spellcasting is Self-Psychology I studied the occult and magical arts in my younger days.
The book Caitlynn found isn't "mirroring" proof it's common for occult authors to put in "blinders" to prevent the uninitiated from succeeded in a ritual to protect them from calling up something they can't control. In Caitlynn's world they probably don't do that.
And winners are also well known to document and keep record of their genocides.
And yes it just fiction but you're closing off the possibility of other worlds that aren't a mirror of the MC's.

I'm just making theory mate it's the point, at this point there's more proof that it's wrong than it's right therefore it's wrong but i'm throwing it out there is all

I know and that's all I'm doing as well.

I'm not sure which doors you're talking about, but there's only one unknown door remaining downstairs. The lower floor looks like this:

Are you sure that's a garage? The layout of the house in the game is similar to my own that might not be garage it could be another bedroom. Not all houses have garages.

I am too, that doesn't stop you getting the scenes. You actually get an extra scene that way, when you do the first dreamwalking thing with her and she sends you to sleep with a handjob, if you've been a dick to her she smothers you with a pillow instead.

A bedroom off of the kitchen? And yes, I'm sure it's a garage. I based my map off of this shot that Zanith shared:

That's.... I dunno, kinda hilarious, but totally not at the same time?

I think the word for that kind of stuff is "karma"

 

[Knight_of_the_lance]

when Rae sais that all human worlds are the same, the way I interpreted it is: All the worlds predominently human are the same and others also exists that could be vastly different. for example Naomi could comme from a world like our own while Caitlyn, Rae, Lyriel and Yona could come from worlds vastly different from our own. Worlds that are not predominently human.

On the subject of magic, it could simply be an analog to science, with the simple spells simply being the equivalent of understanding the lever prinnciple while the most complicated ones being akin to launching a satelite into space.

Skipped most of the content since the orc is too ugly

i skipped dream about her lol

Yeah I have a bedroom off of the kitchen before that it was my home office. I have a 12 yr old daughter who is in a wheelchair. She's a little Irish girl I adopted 3 yrs ago she was 5 when she lost her parents in a car accident which is also why she's in a wheelchair and no one in her parents family would take her in and left her in foster care. People thought it was strange that an American Indian family would adopt a white girl but when I saw her and heard her story I knew I wanted to give her a home and a family and most of all I wanted to be her father. My wife cherishes and her older brothers and older sisters are very protective of her.

The game was realy good until that orc apeared....
