VN Ren'Py Cross Realms [v0.3.0] [DuskDuck]

[Tenchip3d0]

To clarify, abstaining is required for neophytes due being a distraction from the dao enlightenment; also it can lead to heart demon streghtening.
But later on, dual cultivation - a unity of energy, soul and body - becomes an important concept. Though a daoist can have multiple partners, he cannot just do it with anyone - partner need to have compatible realm and body type and intimacy. Else it will be useless at best and harmful at worst.

talking about skipping 10 years now is pointless we just need to wait 7~months for the next update

Might be because she has a lesbian scene at the beginning of the game in the hot tub (kind of, just some fondling). So, dev has probably got her in general flagged as lesbian content, assuming if you don't want to see lesbians, then you probably don't want to be involved with them as well.

If it is doing that for Layla, then it might do it with the others as well that were involved in lesbian type content if you have it blocked. Like Dyna or Reily for instance, since they are also involved in lesbian-type scenes.

But that's just guessing. Otherwise, might just be a bug lol.

Nah, dev just messed up in this update with Layla scene. Her first scene in bath with mc works perfectly fine with lesbian option turned off. Even gallery is messed up with lesbian option turned off, i don't get scene with Serena in gallery, but in game i have that.

ok seems the be only one path so far i declined every1 but they are talking like i didn´t decline and now there is a unavoidable scene with yua?

 

[Gilber_bestram@176]

This update is so peak. Like i am not even playing for the adult part, and the whole battle feel like a great showdown in shounen manga where two big factions clash with each others.

 

[sp4ckj4rr0w_420]

Holy shit... This update is awesome! And what a cliffhanger =O

 

[TheOriginalSchizo]

MC gonna have to find new harem members after that time skip lmao

 

[Lynava]

The most important thing we've seen in the update is Mom.

I am pretty sure the goddess/layla parallel was straight up mentioned in dialogue with the goddess. Like I know that's a trope for ppl that are use to this but still sucks that the layla we get to know (currently) is killed off. Even if the goddess now merges with her, it won't be layla you know?

And as for the time skip, yeah people can live for thousands of years but when (lets sayYua) has been around for 3 decades, that 10 years is going to matter. Most of the LI's were the same age as MC, we aren't talking about ppl that were 100 years old (most of them) but ones that were in their vital formative years. So it seems unlikely the MC would come back to ppl that didn't grow apart, ppl that moved on and changed completely from what they were. (I am rounding up and down btw) The LI's MC met in the last 3 chapters are all going to most likely be vastly different. You discover who you really are in your 20s, to act like missing out on that doesn't matter because they will live for thousands of years is kind of odd lol Mc is a blip on their radar.

In fact, I think someone showing up for a few months and then disapearing for 10 years, which is all we currently know, would mean less to yanyan elina, astrid, and Vanny. They won't have changed much though but going from 18-21 to 28-31 for the other girls? Like it's hard to believe most of them would even think much of MC considering his time with them, or that their lives wouldn't have changed drastically... Excluding Selena who is now 40.

We were 3 chapter in, we were just getting to know the LI's and the world, now we get hit with a pretty big time jump relative to their age and the time we spent in world. Again, for someone going from 18 to 28, that's a long time. I mean how many ppl remember a person they met a few times when they were 18, Mc didn't even finish a school year with them.

I think my biggest issue is that the time jump happened too soon, hard to see the MC having that much of an impact on most of their lives. I get Yua and layla/sword goddess, but others barely knew him.

I am not arguing with you, just kind of responding to his points that you listed. That and I am not even saying doing the thing is bad, I am just typing out more of why I might have concerns over it, and why others might feel the same. I am just discussing it. I am curious to see where the dev goes with it and will play the next update either way. I still enjoyed the update, just discussing its direction. I don't want people thinking I hate it. I just finished it and am only here to discuss it lol

I am also here to repeat myself

I would argue yua being now 5 or 6 years older than MC as she arrived sooner would be a bigger deal in terms of maturing and changing than the 10 years now.

All these girls apparently werent interested in other guys before the MC arrived so i wouldnt be too concered about that (even when it would be reality and no avn-harem lol). It seems not unusual for people in this story to not give a fuck about dating and focus 100% on training which gives the whole thing more leeway anyway.

You excluded quite a few girls already so who are we even talking exactly?

Yua wont move on, never ever, she would already have done that when she was there 6 years alone if she would be inclined to do so. Layla is dead, and swordgoddess with mc whoever he is atm, same with demon princess probably.

So there are kinda only Dyna and Liana left, are you only talking about these two? Liana is a bit of a special case due to being from earth too and her character seems established and scholary. I guess Dyna could move on? But maybe she will just do what she did before MC arrived (aka have fun with girls) so that would not be much of a deal either way.

And well, MC is not just "some guy" who they met for a while and who died than, even to the ones without personal connection to him. He defended them all against a attack which would have possibly eradicated their entire order, hes a legend already.

Furhermore it gives me hope that we will quickly skip the usually annoying "will they, wont they" with most of the LI's and all of them experienced loss and grief now and are more aware of what it means to live in the present.

I throw my desktop out of the window if we get antother "I wanted to tell you something ... I lo- *interruption* nevermind" after he comes back

 

[MisterNephilim]

I don't think LIs moving on and finding other partners is likely to be a thing. Not sure if you noticed, but so far it seems women in the Human Realm have just... somehow never heard of sex? There's literally LIs that are hundreds of years old, and never even held a guy's hand, or had their first kiss. After going a hundred years without thinking about sexuality, a 10-year wait shouldn't have any effect on them whatsoever.

Cultivation is one hell of a drug. I'm also not worried about LI's "moving" on because said LI's have other goals, Serena wants to get away from her family, Childhood friends just wants MC back, the Master, Phoenix girl and Demon Princess are like 500 year old virgins so what's 10 more years.

 

[Noble_Undergrounder_of_Ea]

So when does MC unlock sex cultivation?

Yeah I excluded Layla and Yua from the girls that would "move on". Yua has shown she would wait and well layla, to put simply, is now connected to the MC. Selena was exploring her feelings for MC but the rest were more friends or acquaintances. And I didn't mean MC was a nobody, I just meant that on a more personal level for some of the girls, some barely knew him. Some barely knew him for a month ( I can't remember the exact amount of time that passed)

And by move on, I don't mean finding some guy and getting married, I just mean with their life. Like they mourn him and then live their life for 10 years and have a decent amount of character development that might change them from the characters we just got to know.

But that is how it would go in reality, and like you said, this is not reality so ultimately my assumptions don't matter and speculation is pointless lol better to wait and see what the dev has in store for us.

Mass Effect all over again, thought that was only 2 years

I mean it can go either way (they not changing a lot or changing quite a bit) without being immersion breaking imo. But i mean ... would it be so bad if for example dyna changed quite a bit? Its not like we even knew thiiiis much about them yet.

Either the relationships werent at a point were it really matters (dyna) or already so established that it doesnt really matter (yua) so i kinda dont see the big deal? Imo it was kinda the perfect point in time for a timeskip if there is any.

Even in universe its kinda good as MC simply was too weak to be around them, as he always drew dangerous attention yet wasnt at the point where he would be able to protect them. So him focusing on training for 10 years straight and coming back as a man while a boy left sounds pretty good to me.

the dev kind of put himself into a make or break situation with that time skip. there is a lot of way this can just go wrong. i would like to see mc turn evil as i mentioned earlier cause that was just set up perfectly. mc became a victim of circumstance and still decided to sacrifice himself for the greater "good". as the celestial sword girl/goddess mentioned, nearly everyone who wielded power of the sword went insane. mc most likely spent 10 years in solitude while being tormented by the spirits that the sword claimed and his own mind. it wouldn't be out of character for someone in that position to seek revenge of some sorts, especially now that he has new found power. with that being said i have high hopes.

 

[Reniere]

I can see it now.

Orthodox sects, UnOrthodox sect, and Demonic Sects (MC being the Heavenly Demon) lol Lets mix Manhua and Manhwa.
