Hey guys, trying to get a feel for how long this game is currently. I've just finished Dalia's competition and am now taking Annie on a date. Roughly how far through the released content am I? halfway? near the end? still have a ton to go?
You're technically at the Middle of 0.4 so there's still 2 updates ahead...
No that's 0.4. 0.3 was the escape from Ogygia, Egypt server, Warthogs, Semper Invicta, and ended at the beginning of the Heist planning (right when they got interrupted by someone knocking and Orion opened the door).
What they all said.
I don't know what your reading pace is, whether you do a lot of skipping, screenshotting, multiple routes, etc. I read VNs at what I call a "walking pace": a conversational pace in some place where they don't talk exceedingly fast, (
e.g., UK, major cities in New England, NYC), or exceedingly slow, (
e.g., any place considered "the sticks"), but kind of in between. I also tend to do a lot of screenshots and am playing maybe seven active routes. My habits usually give me somewhere between three and four hours of play time per release - maybe a little more if there are a lot of variances/choices within a particular scene. So, with this being release six, I'd expect an average player to be getting at least 18 hours of play, and maybe up to 24 or so. If you're like
Dorfnutter and analyze every shadow, eye direction and finger position to look for clues to support, discard or create new theories, then you might take a bit longer.
I expect release 7.0 to take a little longer to play through as well - there seem to be two mutually exclusive routes so both will have to be played through fully and I'll likely be creating at least two and maybe even four or six new saves to go along with those major divergences. I don't think either route will
take you out of the harem path, but you will likely
miss an event with an LI by going one over the other.
