[Luxorus]

How the fuck.

 

[Yeppers34]

Alright so for anyone who's seen the new kiyoko scene is it actually worth it, how nice are we talking here

 

[procrastinator101]

What kinda timeline shift is this?!?!

Maybe TObs finally decided to get a therapist.

Wow never thought i would live to see the day this happen

 

[muschi26]

Anyone have a side-by-side comparison?

Anyone have a side-by-side comparison?

That's what i'm hoping for aswell

Wait-wait-wait, hold on a minute. TOBS, The fucking Observer one, finally did write something that kinder to players and not chainsaw cut our brains to justify his type? Strange times indeed. What's next, Savin will say: "Fuck it, we ball. Now it's power fantasy"?

 

[GokutheG]

Can we free Kiyoko without Kinu now?

0.7.37 Patch Notes:

• The scene for turning Kiyoko’s amulet over to Keros has been rewritten to be kinder to you, and now gives you the Control Rod. (By Tobs)

Might be the most anticipated bit of "content" in a time. But why now? What happened? And most importantly.... is this a sign for more? And correct me if I'm wrong. But wasn't the largest bit of animosity about the daughter and how that played out? I mean people had some complaints about the content in general. But the whole Kinu thing was always the primary constant I saw. And how much kinder? If someone calls you a dirty little whore goblin 10 times, then takes it down to 8 and a half. They're technically kinder too.

But I'll admit that I avoided the kitsune stuff. Based on folks talking about it and then looking into some on the wiki. There's only certain levels of bitched out I can willingly take. And as kid friendly not that way! as I am. I can't deal with folks messing up my Dad time. So I'm curious about the eventual comparison.

EDIT: daboss456 theory is that we got baited and mislead; Tobs is fucking irredeemable. Actual gameplay supports said theory.

I think a lot of people are misinterpreting "turning over Kiyoko's amulet" as Freeing Kiyoko. What it actually means is giving Keros the amulet without having sex with her and thus not freeing her. If you do this (at least in prior versons I haven't seen the new updated scene) Keros will essentially berate the PC for not doing what he wants and acts like you're the asshole for not having sex with her.

I'm low-key confused. Here's the save file right before you free Kiyoko. Just go up and talk to Komari, "Free Kiyoko."

As far as I can see, the text didn't change. You don't get the control rod either.

Am I doing something wrong? Did I misinterpret which scene got rewritten (Keros takes away Kiyoko’s amulet in this scene).

If you guys could test, would be awesome.

I can imagine Tobs cringing while writing it.

Ohhhhhh.......

Thank you!

Well, Tobs is not redeemed. Fuck Tobs. Fuck. Way to get my hopes up

That changelog is criminal too....so misleading

 

[MarvintheBee]

Okay there seems to be a some kind of misconception around here. The scene which got changed is this:

Just the scene, when you say to keros:"Nah, don't want Kiyoko, keep her and the amulet."
That scene got change so that Keros doesn't seem like such a litte prick when you don't free Kiyoko (and you get a mage item which you normaly would have gotten from Kinu.)
Nothing else is changed.

And why did it get changed? Because the orignal scene was meant for a time where there was a possibilty to side with the counter part of Keros. So they didnt want to make Keros look to nice, in case you would oppose him later.
That part was obviously cut. So they changed it now.

edit: Nevermind some folk already cleared the confusion, didnt update my side properly.

Now I do say this with the full knowledge that what they changed there was just something minimal that, quite honestly, almost nboody in this thread gives a damn about but given the state of affairs of this project, I'm pretty sure there's no chance of them ever bothering with re-engineering the whole release process without it being this shite you currently get.

It will be on the modders, assuming there are modders willing to deal with this by then. Barring some sort of miracle, the enshitification of Kinu isn't changing until this game's release and that's that. Wasted opportunity on spite, yes, this game's proper subtitle.

Dunno why we even considered it happening. Tobs is a muppet and Savin is a certified bitch, those types of personalities don't flip all of a sudden. Then you add all of the workload required to flip that mess and it's just not gonna happen.

Ah. Well, then. Quoting Nirvana's Breed.

Speaking as a fan of hockey, it's... accurate?

Doesn’t explain what it’s doing in a mediaeval fantasy game, though.

What a shame. Thought we were seeing someone go on an improvement cycle. But Tobs will Tobs.

Since I know that bitch lurks around here:

Le SIGH...... Of course it was too good to be true. May TOBS and Savin be cursed to suffer Eternal Blueballs and Writers Block
