Wondering about that as well. Looks like alternative renders/dialog have taken its place where Zaton just gets a bj from Zahra and sends Ain away.

If you ask me, big regression.

Now that Mantis has a bunch of scenes if you take her back to the bunker instead of leaving her behind with the hive, is that officially the “correct route”?

God, I really wish someone would write a hive-mind where the members still got to have some personality in addition to their connection with the “whole”; why’s it always got to be a strict dichotomy between breaking away to be an individual and being assimilated as a mindless zombie?

 

[FunFuntomes]

Are the actual images still there though..just not referenced in the code? It is more than likely something to be fixed in a later update.

If the images are also now missing, then it seems a serious oversight on the testers parts or a very odd decision to make.

those images were never part of the game

 

[GetOutOfMyLab]

entire scene and scene part missing on it the steam release as I am saying earlier on these thread..

in it the scene d1e image d1e-19,d1e-19x,d1e-20,d1e-21,d1e-22 no longer can you see, no longer in script day1

This was intentionally removed.

scene d3a,d4b are still using them the old flat light image with very difference look ain, really need it the remake badly
View attachment 4330161 View attachment 4330198
scene d3a also no longer in it the script

scene d3d are still showing them zahra image during it the emilia sex even when send her to go away

This will likely be back after the images are reworked. They are still old renders.

 

[muschi26]

This was intentionally removed.

Why, though?

 

[Tidus Black]

Android version 0.17 update?

This is my unofficial version for android.

Umm..yes, they were and have been for a long time. As Lab pointed out though, it seems they have been intentionally removed.

 

[Crankor]

0.17.1.1 Main menu music and animation gave me the chills <3

 

[SIGFOR]

Anyone elses main quest "Her Magesty" not progressing? I finished "Meet Shani in the Library" and it told me to wait a few days but nothings happened.

 

[BBMorti]

Umm..yes, they were and have been for a long time. As Lab pointed out though, it seems they have been intentionally removed.

Ah.. that's concerning. The game has been on steam for 5 minutes and they already started to remove content for Ain.

 

[BlenderGuy]

I'm shocked a game where you get to shag your own daughters is even allowed on Steam.

 

[srfsmrf_]

Isn't Steam supposed to be more relaxed/forgiving than Patreon in that regard?

 

[Maviarab]

Isn't steam supposed to be more relaxed than Patreon in that regard?

Yes...Steam don't care about incest, consent blah blah. So removing this scene is certainly an odd decision.

 

[srfsmrf_]

Perhaps they didn't want to take the risk having that scene early in the game. Still.. Patreon (was) no prob apparently?

 

[Paz]

Ah.. that's concerning. The game has been on steam for 5 minutes and they already started to remove content for Ain.

Come on... we removed, what, probably 5 renders? Sure, people might have liked that part a lot, but it's still 5 renders.
We also added 40 new ones or something of her, so it's not like Ain is pinning for the fjords.

Hey Paz...may we ask why that scene was removed, assume it was discussed beforehand and then the decision made? Just curious as it seems a rather innoculous scene to decide to remove but imo (at least) an important one to show and highlight dynamics.

 

[xapican]

I think it is more because of Patreon, iirc someone from the team said that both versions are similar, hence the las Patreoningans they probably decided to take the safe aproach.
At least that is the explanation what I could think of.

But how much will you avoid making for her in the future if you are steering into this "playing it safe" mindset?
If steam didn't express concern about it then it seems like we all lose on this.. however minor the removal might be.

But you can fuck her a few updates later...so no, that cannot be the reason. Also, given Patreons anal obsession about shit like this one could argue it's a wonder it's even still on Patreon they way they have been going after devs lately. Adopted...step...whatever, Patreon don't care about the 'terminology' a dev decides to use.

 

[Paz]

Why would we avoid making content for her in the future? As I mentioned, we just added more renders (a new early scene) with her. That's the opposite of avoiding her.
