Spoiler: October Update Changes

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

The list of changes you see here almost exclusively consists of bug fixes, apart from the updated visuals for Kira. There's apparently zero new content.

Now, one thing I'm curious about is the updated art for Kira. I only started playing this game after the October update and so I have no clue what she looked like previously (All of the available hairstyles are absolutely terrible, by the way. I love the character model, but the hair is so...bad). Can anyone who is following this title for a while leave a comment and tell me if there's actually been changes to her appearance? Because if the preview pictures on page 01 happen to be the ones with "old" character art, I really don't see any difference at all.

Even some of the descriptions for the handful of bugfixes are vague and not very telling. I'm gonna be honest here. Considering that the last update including actual content- atleast according to other users, has been released what, 1.5 years ago(?), makes this development seem pretty weak. Most if not all of these bugfixes except for the updated character art could be done within a week or two by someone who knows what they are doing.

This developer makes more money on his Patreon than probably 95% of adult VN creators, and so I think supporters should expect more than this. The fact that I've seen many people say that there hasn't really been any progress within the past 1.5 years makes this even worse. I'm new in this thread, but judging by what I've seen so far, one could think that the developer is just collecting money while barely doing any work. People are very welcome to prove me wrong on that one, though.

As someone who has been following this game well before I even made this account, the art overhaul situation goes way back. The changes in the October update are largely related to backend layering work. One of the biggest recent editions (the August update I believe) is the ability to mix and match outfits. There are some actual small changes related to how some things look in the October update, but they aren't entire art style changes you would immediately notice (albeit there are some clothes that changed entirely in look i.e. the Socialistic Underwear had a pretty weird change from what used to be plain raggedy underwear to some Victoria Secret kinky shit). One big one was actually Kira's posture. The dev is now drawing Kira from head to toe rather than what used to be just head to knee. This change resulted in a change to her posture. There was also a change to how hips and thighs look in general.

The end all be all of it is that this art overhaul is going on 2 years now and so much has been rehashed multiple times that cataloguing it would be a Sisyphean endeavor; it could just change again in a future update. If what the dev claims is true, this next update will finish off Kira's art overhaul and they will be moving on to overhaul other characters and develop new content.

would it not be possible to translate to other languages as well ?

There is a translation into Russian, although this is an unofficial translation. To be honest, I don't understand why the developer didn't insert it into the game, since it is Russian-speaking.

The theme that plays while you run around in Moscow seems very fitting for some reason. Although after playing for a bit I realized it made it seem like the game had a more serious tone than it does.

And as for me, the game is complete idiocy, and the developer knows less about Moscow than I do about Mars. It presents an absolutely futuristic world.

The landscape of the game is more like the sleeping quarters of Voronezh or the like. I speak as an honorary zamkadysh

K, roamed around till I found something to do. Found girls talking about a party. Gave me $5 for liquor, go to the bizarre as I was told, ask for liquor, "we won't have liquor for a month", turned off the game immediately

Outta patience for games that lead me strait to content I can't do till way later.

If a place sells liquor, there's a 0% chance they'd go a month without any. Especially in Russia. Not off to a good start.

 

[AwfulArchdemon]

It gets so much worse...

Quest 1: "Get us liquor"
Liquor girl: "Sorry, we're out of liquor for a month... in fucking Russia..."

Maybe I'll buy Vodka...
"And I'm SO sick of drinking vodka"
K, NEVERFUCKINGMIND.

Quest 2: "Climb down the rope at night, then use the taxi"

Cabbie: "Sorry, need to be an anal rapist"

Personal quest to give me some reason not to uninstall: "Should I take a shower?"

[Shower]
[Leave]

"Looks like it's broken"

You GOTTA be fucking kidding me... I've never seen a broken shower in my life, and I DAMN sure never went to a liquor store that told me to come back in a month. Is this game a troll? Just made to infuriate? A prank on H-gamers? Every thing I try to do has some reason I can't do it, from the very beginning on.

There's a game on Steam called Watch Paint Dry. Better game.

Just read his posts in discord, and you understand why it`s not translated into russian. More russophobic author is hard to find.

BINGO!

 

[Deleted member 3909961]

Hey uhh I've got a problem. After the second appointment and choosing what my character is gonna be, I cant seem to enter the residential area anymore. It's as if the game doesn't register that I did the appointment.
I've re-done that event 3 times and it's still broken.

You clearly never experienced a socialist / communist economy.

You can't do that because you're at the very beginning of the game.
Day 2 after your hospital visit, you can shower.
Like the game or not, you haven't even tried to play it.

 

[vessna]

You can't do that because you're at the very intro of the game.

OMG someone's got mad cause he played a few minutes of the game at the start, and didn't reach the goal when ya actually can go take a shower cause it's available after this 3/3 treatment from KGB Chief Officer Psychologist or whoever he is, in the lab section

No, it's available after the first return trip to the hospital. It does not require talking to the Chief at all (other than the forced conversation during the intro).

 

[nuqqur]

So I'm not sure if I've reached "the end" so far. Version 0.4.9.6 (current latest), fresh save from this version, skipped prologue if that affects anything. In-Progress quest list looks like this


As far as I've understood, "Ghost of communism" and "Movie Magic" can't be completed right now. Under side stories there's an empty quest where the details are empty as well. The other two mains look like this:


I'm not actually sure which leaders I've persuaded, what I've done is:

• Imperator - painted trees, didn't stab. I've seen scenes posted here which I haven't seen (only saw a scene with the imperator after the no stab choice)
• Mother - did two scenes until it reported that it is the end of the path
• Farm - accepted everything, did two dreams and milkings, haystack now says end of the path

Is it possible to continue by taking some other paths? I don't even have access to city center, and people here keep mentioning a library that I have no idea where it is (the residential area one doesn't seem to do anything, so either it's unlocked by something later or there's another library in the city center). Also a prison keeps being mentioned but all I get is a jail that I can get out of by sleeping. I've done everything at the hospital and "New You" (slut route).

Edit: also disabled pregnancy content in the test when entering Vivarium. I hope this does not block any progress, and just skips something?

 

[Efficient Owl 52]

Is there a guide for the new content? or just any guides for the game?

 

[CertifiedMushu]

Right klick, Quest Log, look at quests, do what it says. For everything else, walk around and explore, takes like 5min. It's really not that hard.

 

[AwfulArchdemon]

You can't do that because you're at the very beginning of the game.
Day 2 after your hospital visit, you can shower.
Like the game or not, you haven't even tried to play it.

Didn't even try?

I just did everything the game told me to do and every single time "can't, cuz reasons" with NO further instructions. If I can't do anything that day, don't give me missions. At least say "do it tomorrow" or something. No one accepts missions then ignores them all and skips the day.

Game tells you to do something, you should be able to do it. And if I have to do something else first, tell me what.

No quest said "go to bed". In fact, it specifically said "wake up at night and take the taxi". When I woke at night, Blue Judy 2077 started dialogue about going out, indicating I did exactly what I was supposed to do. Though they also told me to buy Liquor on day 1...

And why would I ever assume the broken shower would suddenly work the next day? In what game has that ever happened?

I slept till the next day. Looked very much like a repeat of the day before. Talked to the girl and again she's all "We gonna drink that liquor I told you to get knowing you can't get it?!" and that's when I shut it the fuck off.

No one can say this game gives proper direction with a strait face. If it says "take a taxi" and the cabbie says "no", then I must've missed something, and have to go do that thing first real quick. Don't wanna proceed if I missed something.

Even the job board trolls you. Click the highlighted job, job board closes? Open back up! I wasn't kidding. I did actually want that job. 1 job highlighted, 2 grayed out. In anyone's mind this means "click the one that isn't grayed out".

After hours of examining everything, it seems like my mistake was doing what the game told me to do, instead of flat out ignoring it all and skipping the day; a thing people don't do when they've accepted missions.

No, it's available after the first return trip to the hospital. It does not require talking to the Chief at all (other than the forced conversation during the intro).

yeah, ya re right, sry, didn't remember exactly when it's available, but remembered it's not completely at the start
