Honestly what is the ''best'' eratohotw Version? I use the development build from the wiki. Are there any substancial differences?
While Pedy's the most unique of 'em or prolly the best from what I experienced.
It's a very schizo one and is way too unstable so AnonTW pretty much fixes those and removes some of the schizo sh-t Pedy put.

I mean since then, obviously.
Ah, the pedy version still spams that bizarre error where the pics will have a different face that leads to crashes -> rip save file on my end but they're pretty much the same.

Anon is just more stable on that part.

After wondering how people can possibly play something that seems to make you lose by turn 10-15 no matter what, I found out you could hire soldiers above the cap. :HideThePain: Nothing like the feeling of achievement as you master the art of opening that first door of a tutorial zone to get out. Only took me 3 days of failures. Jokes aside:

1. Is there any penalty for going over the cap, aside from losing natural increase/regen for the army ranks?

2. I had Vigilantes get steamrolled and they disappeared ("dissolved") - can a "new" Vigilantes faction eventually reappear down the road or are they gone for good? To rephrase: can special factions reform after they have been destroyed?

3. Something I kind of picked up from the comments all over this thread: do I understand it correctly that allies of someone I have a ceasefire with can attack me willy-nilly? For example, A has an alliance with B, and B has a ceasefire with C - A can use territories of B to travel all the way to C and attack them, correct? In other words, C would have to be part of the alliance to be protected from A. And, if true - if A and C do go to battle, how would B react, if at all? Help because allies? Not help because ceasefire? Relations drops? Would B participate and/or be affected in any way?

Kinda? There is no penalty for going over other then no more natural draft but I'm pretty sure the higher you economy (needed to have lots of troops) the more the troops cost.

Yes, if A and B are in a ceasefire or alliance, B and C are the same but A and C are enemies, then A and C can pass thru B's territory if they are in alliance. B will remain neutral as longs as their are allies with both.

Hold on a sec, are you saying that it is possible for: A and B to have an alliance + B and C to have another alliance (so no ceasefires, just alliances) whilst A and C can still duke it out?o_O

Yes, even if you are surrounded by allies you are not guaranteed to be safe. Enemy factions also get the Alliance limit that you have.

Well, I decided to try out EraMegaTen. That is a different beast all together. While I’ve played enough actual SMT games that the rpg side is fine but I feel it has the worst H side of all the Era games I’ve played so far.

In my hindsight, should have marked the screenshot key to prevent taking a picture like this.

Anyway, an authentic Hakurei Shrine Experience event is finally in game :KEK:

Side Note:
How many times will Cirno ask for a rematch with me?

EraTohoTW question here: can somebody explain the Exposure/Favorability gains and ?

The reason I ask is because those popped up seemingly randomly as I simply moved around Forest of Magic, not interacting with anybody (I may have pilfered some panties early in the in-game morning, screenshots are already around 3PM). Thought it was the touhous having quests, but Yumeko shot that theory down with "Favorability: 1". Who/what/where am I getting these +s from, then? I mean, I could "logically" explain Exposure from commando touhous I run into, but Favorability? :unsure:

And one more: what does Great Fortune Crest do, exactly, when it is "shining" or "sparking brilliantly"? What am I supposed to pay attention to in this case?

If some 2hus are happy after interacting with you, they'll spread some good word -> more favorability with their friends but this one is a weird case 'cause that only shows up at the end of each day.

Exposure might be their exp gain from going commando if you steal some of their panties, maybe shame will rise up too.

Fortune Crest is for lewd. I don't really know if it's only for the home area or not.
But "shining brilliant" usually meant someone is masturbating there. Or maybe it's just me

Exactly, "weird case" - I do remember those end-of-the-day increases, and these do not look like it at all. The bummer being that there is no indication of who the increase is with - I would at least have a starting point for figuring out what is happening.

But "shining brilliant" usually meant someone is masturbating
So..."someone is having some "me" time, go figure out who it is, where they are, and do all of that before they finish" of some sort? God forbid it is not in the same area - I think I would not even bother paying a visit, then. Sounds oddly specific/constrained to be worth the time. Not that I would know what to do if I were to get there in time. :HideThePain:


Lastly, completely unrelated to my other questions (probably): I grabbed the "original" eng-translated TW, but does anyone have a take on it vs AnonTW or whatever fork(s) are out there? Like, is there a reason to switch, or is it primarily QoL differences?

I mean, the OG pedyTW bricks my save after some days mostly 100+ while AnonTW seems to be more stable.
But that's just on my experience so if it works fine on you, it should be alright to keep playing that version you have.

The other person explained it poorly, the primary purpose of the crest is to give you a hint at your daily luck at the start of the day with how brightly it's shining being representative of your level of luck. So if you get something like in the image I shared you'd be better off not spending a lot of time doing stuff like fishing because you'll mostly just fish up junk. What they were talking about is it's secondary purpose. So when you got to a characters room there's four things that can happen. Either the character simply isn't there or asleep, the character is there and they'll tell you if they'll visit your home area tomorrow or not, they're there and you can ask them to go on a date and lastly you'll catch them masturbating. The fortune crest let's you force the masturbation outcome through an option it adds when you visit a room which also consumes it.
