RPGM Branded to Fall [v0.4] [BaconSoap]

[Hastmaldu]

How to open portal where Cam is stuck? I refused Leandros "help" but I don't know how to open portal by myself.

I just did that today, heres the steps you need to follow:
1. Interact with the lever behind the lectern
2. enter the room to the complete left, get the key from the tomb
3. light the statue at the bottom right and the statue at the top left in the same room
4. interact with the banner at the center of the top floor, and after that interact with the chain that was hidden behind it
5. open the door to the massive skull helmet on the pedestal and take the skull helmet
6. Interact with the different looking statue in the room to the left of the portal

The portal should open now. It really took me some time to figure out this puzzle.

I feel like the fmc's design/face is a little dull compared to the other girls. I guess it's a ntr game so maybe that's the point.

This game is cool and all but how do I know if I'm at the end of ALL content and not some of it?

Also,

Bug reports:

• When speaking to inquisitor whatshisname with Elora at night after a few nights, it just glitches. No dialogue box, no eoc warning, just an aborted animation.
• Some quests aren't in the quest log. Can't remember what I need to do or see.

Feature requests:

• When switching characters, the time of day doesn't reset. This gives me hard FOMO. Suggestions on how to handle this in a more satisfying way:
  - Simply set me back to the morning when I switch characters at night so I can play the whole day for both of them
  - Create a "recap" of the other hero's day for parts that I missed which activates either at the end of each time period (such as a "during this time..." message, etc.)
• There is huge potential for getting caught. Like, let me play the morning as Elora, do something naughty, and then let me replay the morning as Cam and then I pass by that house and hear some noises or look through the window... Things like that
• More things that can happen without giving me a choice. I think corruption can only be complete when there is also coercion, like giving the protagonists an impossible choice. Some events should go bad either way. For example, I kie the part where Cam can choose to hide in the closet but be violated by the demon, or try to make a run for it... but then the run is "safe" instead of causing problems? Still, it's a choice I can definitely make when trying to roleplay as Cam trying to stay pure. But when Elora gets the choice to "stay"' or "leave", most of the time it's ano brainer, if I'm roleplaying logically, she leaves.

Alright that's all for me, great game, hoping to see more of it

Thanks for the report and feedback! I'm aware of the end of content messages not all being there in this version. There were a few events I didn't know specifically where i wanted them to start or that would lead to a constant end of content message every time you slept or something similar so I chose not to add them. In the future I'll add end of content messages to the end of the final event instead to avoid this.

The bug with Leth I'll look into as even as a "hidden" content character, he should have an end of content message with no issues. As for the questlog, not all quests are in the quest log like Finns as its technically not started yet and I dont want to clutter the log before it is, and some others as the quest is locked in until completion like Lord Archibalds. But I again see how this is confusing. Hopefulyl when I get a UI designer and make a new questlog I can sort it a much cleaner way and have it less cluttered when including everything.

As for the suggestions, well first, thank you for them. It's always great to hear when someone cares enough about the game to have opinions on what they'd like to see or direction of some content! The time of day doesn't change when switching character as having to process both characters days and do a back to morning would be insane amounts of work to handle how I'd be satisfied with then having the other player carry out the appropriate actions and locations they hung out at that relevant time of the day. It would also then add no time management worries between the two if you were to swap and would make all the content end in much fewer days which would then alter some fo the day timers and the like I have (prime example being the mayors dinner on day 3 would suddenly have waaaaaay more content done for both characters before hand completely altering the corruption levels and progress before you'd be at this point). So while this is a mechanic I wanted and intended to use originally, it would substantially bloat my development to the point just swapping in the current time of day was the better option. I do have plans to explore this properly in a future game with a much smaller scope as to the amount of corruption routes available to have to account for your partner having done.

As for the negatives to refusing events, again this is something I don't necessarily disagree with, but I have to be careful how I handle this as creating a true, you're fucked by picking to not do the sexy times option makes players shoe horned into doing a route or option they may not have any interest in, and my main aim is player choice in the corruption and scenes they want to see. My ways around this so far have been like the latest Leandros event, to introduce a dungeon that must be completed with multiple death possibilities, or like in the Cam case (which does have a variable tied to it that willcome into effect in the main story if you run out early as the thugs saw you both and reported this. The story just hasn't reached a point for this consequence to be visible. My aim with most of the "coerced" options like Leandros is to ensure there is an out (at least until the player has consented to enough of them to be locked in to their content.), this allows players to avoid content they don't want to see and also means I keep patreons guidelines by having a clear out for the player and ensure they are fully consenting to any scene they want to see. (Which is unfortunately a hoop I have to jump through less I lose all my funding).

Thank you again for the feedback and requests! I hope I've done an adequate job of explaining how while I would love to implement some of the suggestions it's better for me not too, and I hope you enjoy the future content as well!

Finally tried the game. Very nice so far, looking forward to more.

Favorite girl for Cam: Definitely Seren. I hope we get to see more of her hot ass and her using said ass to tempt Cam. Charlotte, Rose and Alice are good too

Favorite girl for El... probably Jade, based on the little of her we have seen so far. Jen and Vanessa are also good. No comment on the guys, as I ignored their routes.

Lots and lots of typos, though. Here are some:
1)
"theme's" should be "themes". This is right at the start and makes for a bad first impression

2)
"took up" should be "taken up", and "families" should be "family's"

3)
There should be a comma after "Besides". Also, "then" should be "than"

4)
"lets" should be "let's". Also, "Come El" should be "Come on, El"

5)
"monsters" should be "monster's"

6)
"taking money those villains" should be "taking money from those villains"

7)
"took from him" should be "taken from him"

8)

9)
"I'll go to!" should be "I'll go too!"

10)
"demons there you both" should be "demons there are you both"

11)
"lets" should be "let's"

12)
"brats" should be "brat's". "getting should be "get"

13)

14)
"quarentine" should "quarantine"

15)
"then" should be "than"

16)
"mind mind" should be just "mind"

17)
"thiefs" should be "thief's". "artifacts" should be "artifact's"

18)
"towns" shoul;d be "town's"

19)
There's a word that does not fit the text box. I assume it is "brand"

20)
"Captains" should be "Captain's"

21)
"make do" should be "make me do"

22)
"a Demons" should be "a Demon's"

23)
"we're" should be "we"

24)
"isnt" should be "isn't"

25)
This one is a bug, not a typo: I don't think I should be able to walk on the walls here

26)
"other's" should be "others". "then" should be "than"

27)
"lights" should be "light's"

28)
"too" should be "two". and "Mr" should be "Mr."

29)
There should be a comma after "now". "Lets" should be "Let's"

30)
"then" should be "than"

31)
"churches" should be "Church's". There should be a comma after "resources"

To be comtinued in next post (because there's a limit of 32 images per post).

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the spelling reports, my spelling is genuinely atroscious also not helped by me typing faster then my brain works half the time leading to typing things like this as thsi XD. The images genuinely help so much as I can identify which scene it is to be able to go correct them quickly so thank you for that and also for taking the time to actually log each screenshot too, I can't imagine how long that took. I'll get these fixed for 0.5

And a random thing:
102)
"Oh sorry I was" should be "Oh, sorry, I was"


Alright, that's it. This time I am done for real. I am going to leave the game alone until the next version is released, so no more bugs or typos until then.

Question: Any plans for threesomes? In fact, can we get a list of planned content for each character added to the first post?

There are plans for threesomes (and more!), Jade's routes if approached on both characters can lead to full threesome scenes as a more mutual examples, while El will be pushed to further actions in the Bar and with Tristan that will involve more people on the side of the spectrum. As for Planned content, I could go through the kind of idea of what will be in each route but I feel at this point the feel of each of the routes has been established to tell what you can expect from them. If this isn't enough I'll be be happy to give details on planned content for any specifically.

Jade was my first thought as far as threesomes go, so I look forward to it!

On El's side the one route I am most uncertain about is Jade's. I assume she will be a lot less pushy and domineering than Vanessa and a lot more loving, but with just one scene it's hard to tell for sure.

Vanessa seems like pure lezdom, while Jennifer seems to be a mix of futadom and not-so-subtle manipulation. Balthus, Leandros, Tristan and the Duke seem like they will be various types of maledom, while the Alchemist, the Playboy and the Clothing Store will involve prostitution.

Cam's routes are a lot less clear to me. Seren and Charlotte's are the best developed ones, and I have a good guess about Jade and Dahlia. But I am unsure what to expect from Rose, Alice and Hazel (especially since the last one has no proper scene just yet).

Also, any chance we could get a Seren route for Elora?

Thank you for the clarification, much appreciated!

 

[GreatDictator]

I kinda want Rose to be possible partner for both MC. She is just cute and I can imagine both Cam and El tease and kiss the hell out of her. It's me tho. It's your call mate.

Glad you like her! I get a lot of requests for making some characters available for both of the other MC as well and I sadly can't do that for all of them without doubling the game so it is very unlikely I will add a Elora x Rose route, but I wouldn't rule out a dual corruption scene when on a high corruption ending for both Cam and El. The most likely one I'd end up making a whole new route for would be Elora x Charlotte.

And Elora x Charlotte route?!?!?!?!?!?

Let me guess, Charlotte will corrupt and dominate Elora in that possible route?

 

[Buletti]

Elora x Charlotte.

If Charlotte is domme, that would definately be my canon playthrough. (Fuck it, it would be my canon either way...)

 

[Nenshou Yuuki]

The most likely one I'd end up making a whole new route for would be Elora x Charlotte.

I've been curious how that would start, maybe El goes to the hot spring to relax and signs up for a massage and the masseuse just happens to be Charlotte, what are the odds? The two obviously aren't happy but El paid for this and this is Charlotte's job so they just get on with it but the El keeps sneaking glances at Charlotte who takes note of that and starts having fun, unseriously at first and then very seriously when her teasing lands.

 

[Ale889900]

Im so in hype to see how cam x Charlotte will keep going into 0.5, i have a question where i can find the new character in 0.4 with cam, kiba? I try go out from the city but cam don't wanted to go hahaha maybe i have to trigger something in the town before?
