I keep getting the feeling that Annabelle's putting an act and I hate it, because I like her. Just let her be innocent!

i'm sorry Cosy Creator normally i'd wait for the public release then d/l (but from reading all the ones saying that this is the best yet ima break my rule and d/l this version)

 

[Cosy Creator]

Yeah, I've discussed the prospect of reworking the early stuff a few times, but I've never really mentioned my more recent position publicly: The more I've improved the recent graphics, the more earlier content I feel like I would have to redo to make it so that there isn't a big drop-off between the reworked stuff and the original stuff in the middle of the story. With that in mind it just stacks up into an impossible amount - redoing 12,000 renders would be insane, and in another years time I'd probably want to redo 17,000. So yeah, my position now is that I'm probably just gonna let the early stuff stay as it is.

understandable choice to keep the novel accessible to as many people as possible.
but i sure do love those minutes saved by only downloading the new content.

Depending on where you download the update from though, those "minutes" you mention may just be hours instead.

A dev being reasonable about reworks, what a rare sight.

I kinda even enjoy to see a dev's improvment over time in an avn and its like a further sign that its a good dev.

Completely unrelated to the current content, but imagine if Lucy's mom and Victoria's dad got married. It wouldn't actually change anything, but I think the initial chaos it'd cause would be really funny.

Those have been there since week one. I don't think they mean much.

You don't need a save here, the game let's you start from the beginning of latest update

Why do you need that? The game has a built-in "start from new content" feature when you start a new game.

This game is a real disappointment; there are only flirting scenes and games instead of actual sex with the girls, and the few sex scenes it does have are very short. At 10 GB, it seems excessive for the little content it offers, which is very little sex. I guess it's your typical romance/harem game where the sex scenes take forever to arrive. I played it and didn't like it. I hope there will be more sex scenes in the future, but for now, it's not for me.

My brother in Christ, if you just want porn without the story, why are you playing erotic visual novels? Porn Hub is literally right over there...

YESSSS!!!! Annabelle is a love interest now. FUCK YEAH! i so wanted that to happen. shes really adorable and a real beauty

 

[MalLiz]

Well, damn... Cosy Creator, I just found a bug in the new version. Fortunately, I'm pretty darn sure I have completely "figured it out" for you, so I will list the details below...

The bug causes one of those annoying "exception" errors that the Ren'py engine is so freaking fond of. The cause of the bug is that if you set UI animations to the absolute maximum and open the save menu at any point (whether from in the game or just the main menu) then the error occurs. I'm not 100% sure if the bug happens with a slightly lower animation speed set, but it definitely happens all the time at the maximum speed.

Is it the ATL infinite loop glitch? If it is, a small number of people have been getting that when going onto the save/load pages. As a temporary fix you can go into the scripts folder and delete "01fileslots.rpy" and "01fileslots.rpyc". If it's something else, would you mind posting a screenshot of the error message please?

This is the only correct position. Midway remakes is where projects go to die.
And, it might be a bit harsh, but i'm not here for the graphics - i'm here for the story. And i think so is the majority of your audience.

That's because you don't turn your back on family.

well you are free to dislike the game if you want of course... free country and all.
But I would like to point out that our MC deflowered 3 virgins within a couple of weeks, he has had several blowjobs, one from the headmistress of the school, he is messing around with a teacher.... I don't know about you but that is pretty fucking amazing in my book....

But if you want an MC that fucks all the time... maybe try Grandma's House ??? or something similar.

I think Cosy Cafe is one of the best AVN's of all time, I love the characters and story, the MC is not some wimp virgin..

peace

Honestly it even adds charm. I remember how surprising, and even a little fitting storywise, the massive improvements in Once in a Lifetime have been. Almost as if as the protagonist becomes more and more confident and decided the flow of the story and the graphics improve alongside him.
