Sorry if you've answered this already, but why the one where you call Ain over near the beginning of the game, when you are saying hello to Zhara? When she's kneeling and you could call Ain over for a hug? And then a sleeping scene with Ain later on? Given all of the other scenes are still intact with her, that are even kinkier, often involving the same characters, I'm puzzled why those 2 were removed?

To help fly under the patreon radar is the short answer for the first one. For the second, the only sleep events you can do with her is fuggin' her while she's sleeping or waking her up first. Are you talking about the Ain Massage event? If so, I think that got temporarily "commented out"/deactivated (people have said that it is still in the game files) because it's starting to show it's age and the devs didn't want something so raw for the steam release but couldn't find the time to work on it without causing more delays.

Is there any new scene compare to 0.17 beta?

 

[Mxiio]

I'm playing this on Steam at the moment and I keep running into an issue where regardless of how many days I skip no quests come up, all of them say to either wait or to progress other quests. Some big brained fellow here might be able to figure out what the issue is I hope.

 

[Stayjazzy]

Is the Ntr gone?

 

[srfsmrf_]

My question is why were some scenes apparently removed entirely? [... Ain scenes ...]

Is there any new scene compare to 0.17 beta?

Some bugs have been fixed, making scenes available that weren't in the beta.

Still, there seem to be some bugs left, so I'd expect a 0.17.2 or something in the near future.

Reportedly (see #21,553 *) 'Ain's massage' is still part of the game's content, but it doesn't seem to trigger in-game. May be a bug to be fixed.

Is the Ntr gone?

There's netori & sharing. (Nothing has changed in that AFAIK.)


* @ a certain cynical adm: oh, hey, handy, now I can point users to that post ... (FYI, answering your questions: I played through the beta, waiting to play again / enjoy at a later point in time. I do love me a good table though! )

 

[SonsOfLiberty]

when is the final?0.17

This is the final update for this version, unless any minor bugs are found and pushed out.

the actual patreon must have every older ver right, like just deep down the timeline somewhere?

I mean Google/Bing/etc exist

It's a beta release. It's not a fully completed game just yet.

It is NOT a beta, this is the release version, the same version you find on Steam.

When I played it the Ntr scenes were gone I think I need a new download

 

[Stayjazzy]

Also is v0.17.1.1 the latest update?

 

[SonsOfLiberty]

Also is v0.17.1.1 the latest update?

It is, as it is the same version that is on Steam, and Steam gets updates same time as Patreon/SS.

progress to fairy and after you will have access to basement again. tho no clue what happens when you finish fairy basement quests if shes still there. so better finish kyra before that.

you need to activate sharing option in preference.

 

[Buletti]

Very true. It is still setting a precedent though and still a completely illogical stance and thing to cut given the rest of the 'daughter' content that is in the VN...but...*shrugs*

Putting it back in is actually a pretty simple process, if there really is enough interest then I'll be happy to make a RCM for this scene and this scene alone unless someone beats me to it.

Since this topic got a lot of traction now, maybe more people would beat you?

I am referring to that sleep event with Ain, where you can either let her sleep, or wake her up, though it's heavily implied she's playing along the whole time. I don't see what's wrong with that scene from a visual standpoint. It was a great scene that was on my frequent flyer list of gallery scenes to peruse. Shame people thought it was somehow low quality. If that's why then I hope it gets returned eventually.

I'm curious how the first scene I mentioned (the one with Zhara giving oral and Ain watching) is somehow going under the radar by removing it? I mean both of those characters end up messing with each other in WAY more graphic and extreme ways later? Like if all sexual interactions between them were removed then I could understand them trying to appease some restriction. But when it's simply a single scene (that still has the sexual component to it), but you simply remove one aspect, I'm confused as to what radar is being avoided?

An unofficial PDF walkthrough, for those who use them. It might contain errors/omissions. No guarantees about future updates, sorry.

(Also, someone requested a version of the walkthrough with the sharing content skipped, so there's one of those too -- no guarantees about it either, sorry.)

10th edition, for game version v0.17.0.

Much much appreciated man!
I hate sharing my little beauties

The patreon radar, and I think it was done under the assumption that patreon's admins/devs wouldn't play through the whole game or mess with the options to determine if the game is ban worthy.

The sleep sex is still there and can be triggered as far as I can tell, but I'm playing on an android that's been modified, so I don't know what the steam release is like.

You mean this scene?



This is the repeatable "Sleep with Ain" scene and it wasn't removed. It'll become available after you allow Ain to leave the basement after her punishment.

The problem wasn't sexual content with Ain. That's obvious because there's a LOT of sexual content with Ain. The problem was that some few renders in the game made her look underaged. Namely, a handful of renders in the "welcome home" blowjob scene at the end of day 1. That scene in particular was apparently flagged in the Patreon review, so the devs simply opted to remove those renders instead of nuking the whole scene.

As far as the Ain massage scene? It was a fairly unimportant scene with no story relevence that was visually outdated. It was probably easier to just remove the scene entirely prior to the steam release as it clashed pretty bad with the rest of the game. It might come back later on with a visual rework, but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't. I think there's still like one non-lewd scene left in day 2 that still needs a visual upgrade, but it was left in because it was mildly story relevent.
