Oof, that word is one of my biggest pet peeves. Mostly because it was invented by the movie Underworld for the sake of being edgy, so it feels completely out of place in any setting that isn't trying to be edgy, like calling vampires "vamps". But also because it proceeds past the part of lycanthrope that means "wolf" and stops halfway through the part that means "human", so it's like shortening wolfman to wolfm.

That's just me, though.
Really? I had no idea that originated from Underworld. I kinda like that first movie tbh. Lycan still sounds cooler to me than werewolf, but I can see how it still sounds cheesy in that embarrassing edgy teenage way.

...Sorry if that came across as rude at all, sleep deprivation is my equivalent of drunk-posting. Anyway, I think it originated in Underworld. I've attempted to find the origin multiple times, and each attempt fails to go back any farther than Underworld, which is exactly the kind of movie that would invent a term like that. I didn't dislike the movie, but it was very much an edgy "modernized" take on vampires and werewolves (complete with stuff like UV grenades), and shortening lycanthrope into a snappy nickname is on-brand for that sort of thing. Seeing it get used in the Castlevania reboot, a series which is supposed to be rooted in classical monster movies... Well, don't even get me started on that game.

I've always liked the full "lycanthrope" myself, probably because it sounds like a scientific classification, with "werewolf" being the common vernacular and "wolfman" being a casual nickname. (The fun part is that all three of those words mean pretty much the same thing.) On a mostly unrelated tangent, I've also recently been spurred into debates about D&D using the term "lycanthrope" to describe non-wolf were-creatures. "Now hold on a second, DM. 'Lykos' means wolf, and 'anthropos' means human. That were-rat is a... Hang on, lemme Google this..." "Oh my God, just roll for initiative." "Wait, hang on... I think it would be... Mys?" "Misanthrope is already a word. The were-rat bites you and you die." "Alright, fine. But it was a zoanthrope that killed me, not a lycanthrope!"

It's the bad ending for the side quest Dubious Ingredients. Check out that section in my guide.

mkrudesign how much content is outside bad ends? I understand that some bad ends have extended gameplay after them, but as i personally reall dislike having go get a game over to see content i must ask that question.

I dislike it mostly because it's usually realised in a bad way (for example MGQ did it pretty well), but also i don't think there is a way it could be done that would not leave a bad aftertaste (to me at least, different people have different taste.)

I just got to chapter 2 and am enjoying the game so far!

One questions though; in the walkthrough where it talks about the vampire route is says you have to lose to a guy named Dorian to start it. Will this trigger a sex scene with him, or can you be a vampire and pure lesbian?

I'm in the middle of Bianca's diary and i really like all the characters and bad ends i found by now, as always the only thing that i don't like is the impossibility to carry old version's saves.

Unfortunately (for you at least), it's pretty much a plot point that the vampire route begins with Mila losing her virginity.

Hopefully you have enough vampire dust to level up--that'll give you more HP. You could also buy the flower that gives you more HP or something.

Is this one of those games where you are only rewarded with porn when you fail? I seem to remember giving it a try a while back and being annoyed that playing well was consistently punished with a lack of porn.

As you pass certain events in game the bed-end images are unlocked in the gallery, so you don't have to loose to see them.
