Ola ! Just wondering if I'm the only one who can't load any saves from previous versions ?
I haven't played the game since 0.14 and it seems saves are not compatible ?

The VN was migrated to Renpy 8.3.3 in v0.17. This is on the OP in big bold yellow letters:

how long it usually takes to release final version once beta comes. 2 weeks right? I cant remember. i've skipped some update of this game

Something close to that, just depends on how many bugs they find and need fixed, and if any extra animations/renders need to be redone or added in.

The raiders could also visit Zaton’s house.

Didn´t thought of that, but they could. I don´t see that happening though.

Oh right.
All good then regarding my misunderstanding.

I think I put her as one of the main LIs (subjective view from my end) cause she's one of the characters that player sees first with that opening scene.

But I do agree that she currently lacks the "it" factor to definitively have her be definitively be labelled as main LI (at least to the extent that Shani, Zahra, Yuna, Merneith (the Queen's name, hope I got this correct lol) are.

Above 4 characters each have had their quite extended dedicated story arcs which distinguished them from others.

- Ain, I still consider he one of main, yet she didn't get dedicated story arc all that much until now. That seems to be changing with the recent update with her story.
- Characters like the royal palace guard or Zaton's niece, Kateryna, Fairy, blonde servant (can't remember her name lol), I feel like they're more part of the overall wheel than the wheel itself.
Perhaps this is poor analogy, but it was the only one I could think of right now lol

Kyra, hmmm......
The thing is, there's one huge drawback to seeing her as main LI (despite me thinking so).

She's part of one whole Raiders' arc, thus is having to share much screentime with several other raiders; her own sister, the one armed raider, and the blindfolded girl (sister of "the general" who was killed).
Compared to characters like Shani, Zahra, Yuna, Merneith, who have storylines solely for their own characters only Kyra just seems to lack much aspect of this.

Kyra solo exlusive arc (setting it apart from Raiders group arc) being introduced may correct this perception, but I'm not sure that's something that the devs are interested in.

edit: and yeah. I'd love to see Yuna on the menu next update with continuation of her arc heh.

Kyra´s story seemed to be more focused on the raiders aspect, with Kyra being there for the lewds. She´s still the leader of them, so maybe she is a LI? I´m on the fence now, she could totally be one.
By the character arc logic, would you consider Nadia a main LI? She has been the focus of a storyline a few updates back (we really need more).

I would set her equal to "Fangs" she is the leader of the Faction and Involved with MC her story arc is so to say the whole "Mutant arc" the same for Kyra it is the Raiders Arc

Yes, I think that´s a good comparison.

I think she counts as an LI. I think any of the girls that where the main quests are side quests directly feature them then they can probably be counted as an LI. So I think Kyra definitely counts. Yuna, Fairy, Emelia, Lirah... etc... Basically all the girls that develop feelings for Zaton (in their own ways, of course).

If I think "side girls" in this VN though, it's girls like Rue, or Talia, the thief, the girl who's brother whored her out in the market, etc...

Your chart doesn't take proportions into account so a lot of the larger breasts appear similar in size. D cups on a woman that's 4ft(or roughly 121cm) tall will look a lot bigger than on one that is 6ft(or 182cm) tall. This is because cup size is a measurement that doesn't account for a woman's overall proportions relative to her titties, which is why

That chart really doesn't seem accurate at all, IMO. I wouldn't put any of those women past a C... maybe a D cup. As a degenerate, I would consider myself somewhat of an expert from many years of ... careful study. :BootyTime:

and my self disagree. For the chart to make mastubatory sense it needs to, at minimum depict women(or a fictional character) all at the same height but with varying bust sizes. Basically "relative" cup sizes rather than the absolute sizes you posted.

I'm having trouble remembering who Nadia is.
Is she that niece of MC Zaton?

If that's who you're referring to (please correct me if I'm wrong), then while I'd consider her a LI, no I wouldn't consider her a main LI.
Pretty much with her, it only resulted in lewd/sex scenes for most part and there were no significant story element, especially given lion's share of her arc's storyline was just Zaton telling that flashback between him, Zahra, and Zahra's sister.
She'll need an arc which stands on her own which isn't reliant on Zaton's flashbacks (which, let's face it. That section in essence is Zahra's story).

I would say that the overall storyline there is about Rabiah(the sister in-law) as the LI and/or cucking Omar, likewise for some it might be argued that Omar is the LI or that the 3 characters of the sub-plot
aren't LIs at all.

I think once you reach the end of the game it should allow you experience a few more variations of previous visits to certain locations. I really like the game, the storyline and the characters etc. It's developing into a top game. Seems weird to consider we're actually experiencing the development of a top game in segments. The mac version I downloaded played perfectly without any bugs. Great game!

Omar getting cucked?! That's impossible. He is the one who cucks! Whenever Omar is on screen all of the ladies should drop their loincloths and whenever he isn't on screen, all of the characters should ask, "Where's Omar?".
