RPGM Abandoned Council of Lies [v0.2.2] [Fleeting Hearts]

[VenomSuperSayan]

Another rare Female Protag RPGM with choices. I can skip Kiaran scenes . Will we have a lesbian route? I tried Jennevive quest for an obvious reason and the game stuck in the Jenne room.

Alright, you can also just message it to me on discord, or twitter.

I uploaded the screenshot on discord

Jennevive is the lesbian route. But also, I'm going to need to know what happened when you got stuck. If possible send me a video so I can fix any issues. Else explain to me what happened exactly leading up to the issue.

Did anyone else run into a bug while investigating Edwin? He says to look at the notes he's reading in the council room, but then nothing happens when I face the table and press enter. I tried speaking with him again, and it just ran through the same dialogue and he backed up another step and I went back in front of the notes that don't respond to anything.

Are you wearing the chainmail outfit? If so it won't run any of the council member scenes. I need to re-check the conditions concerning this outfit so that it can't be worn for that time period. Since, it makes no sense to be groped while wearing chainmail.

 

[ld69]

Ah, yes I was, because Dame had told me to wear the chainmail. I changed into the dress and the event triggered. Thanks.

Just a suggestion: don't make the skip button a choose button. E.g. when I press x to skip and there comes a choice, pressing x selects the first option and continues; what I want is that pressing x (or Esc or whatever button skips) won't select anything and just stops there.

I was aware that this was a possibility but hadn't gotten around to changing it yet. It's not something that's straight forward to change, but I will try to address it.
Also, I'm attaching the update files for CoL v0.1b in order to resolve a number of minor issues as well as ensure that people don't experience the, wearing chain mail so skip rest of scene issue (It will tell you to go change). Also resolved the dialogue where it said right after the temple that Marie had the guard take the chainmail, but she was still wearing chainmail.
Which begs the question why the dialogue was in there to change in the first place. Maybe I'll make it more clear that you don't in any way have to change for the temple sequence. Yet

why is it 2dcg when those are clearly 3dcg models

 

[Advint]

Yes, the tags are wrong. But I also didn't want to be the kind of dev that asks to have all these tags put in of content that isn't there (or barely there). Instead leaving it up to players / thread creators to put them in place.
I will inquire about having it changed to be more accurate.

I dont think its NTR if the protagonist is female. Arent NTR games usually about a male getting cucked?

 

[Advint]

Doesn't matter the point of view. There's different types of NTR though. The one everyone tags as Netorare is when, relationship partner is being unfaithful and the cuckolded is aware of it. Which is different from cheating where they are unaware. Right now the game is technically cheating, but NTR is the planned eventuality. At least by player choice.
Also in regards to the incest tag. The game does have conditions in it where Ben is Marie's brother, but for Patreon reasons it's disabled.

Is there a pure lesbian path or will content with male be required?

You can go pure lesbian.
The way it's planned right now, you reach a certain number of events with a single council member or reach a certain number of events with combined council members and the climax will trigger. After which a certain number of events in the same form described above will trigger the end.

Well but I mean usually in NTR's isnt the player suppose to identify with the main character and feel jealous when the MC gets his girlfriend/wife stolen by another dude?

If its just a girl being slutty I agree with you its just a cheating game I would believe.

 

[Advint]

Generally NTR is defined as I stated. As far as identifying with the main character, that doesn't matter. You just have to look to doujins and mangas written with NTR for examples of how to tag something with NTR. A good percentage of those are written from a female perspective. So I would say that the player doesn't have to identify with the main character for it to be NTR. But that is something that could be debated. However I would also state that women can play hentai games too. They just don't announce it in forums and chats because the men in there would thirst after them like a nomad in the desert.

I feel like its different for hentai and manga because those arent really interactive mediums for NTR. In those you are just watching, in a game you are actively playing a role in the events that are happening and progressing a narrative so I feel like players tend to insert themselves more into the MC's perspective.

It also seems majority of porn game players would be male so the though of a female MC to them is just "let me corrupt and make this girl a slut and get her fucked hard" not so much "I need to protect my waifu from other guys, no one must defile her".

 

[cakeny]

If the MC is doing the sleeping around it's cheating not NTR. Anything your character does can not be NTR. If it were that would mean you were stolen from yourself, how would that even work?

Thats my thoughts so the idea of a female main character and "NTR" tag kinda seems wrong lol. I think the better tag would be "cheating" and "corruption" maybe? She is becoming a slut and sleeping around, she isnt having her husband/boyfriend stolen away from her lol.

I'm attaching update files to convert the game to v0.1c from any version of the game. This resolves a number of minor things as well as adds the dress sprite, and is all thanks to someone on the discord reporting them. Change log is on the patreon. Newer content should be excluded in these files as well. No peeking allowed (It's mostly unfinished dialogue)

Also for the NTR tag, I don't know I just suggested it based off prior experience. If people feel that it isn't right they can ask for it to be changed. Which right now it admittedly isn't since in this version Kiaran isn't even in the castle to see anything. However in the future he will be, hence the whole point of allowing the playing to choose to date him or not.
As well any of the suggestions I made for tags I tried to keep modest and true to the content that exists.
