Except it doesn't require that. You can easily choose not to love some of the girls while loving others. Works perfectly fine. Worked in his last game too. You're confusing a desire for more context dependent relationship content as a desire for antagonistic content.

Guess you missed the part where he said he doesn't want to repeat that (hence the "no girl left behind" message implied in his post) and actually want all of the girls in. Like, he's been saying he's been toying with that idea even a year before he made that post I screenie'd.

Like, you're free to ditch Annie if you want, but don't be surprised if you're locked out of the harem end this time around unlike in OIAL.

Also, lots of harems basically have that competitive angle amongst the girls so having one singled out while the others are favored works. Don't think that works with this game since Nan exists as the person helping Orion make the harem possible (with Nova already on board, and Alex and the sisters likely to follow in the next update if the sneaks are to be believed), unlike in OIAL where every girl is just falling in love with the MC and - outside of their own cliques - never really came together to discuss how they're basically part of one harem (and MC himself barely acknowledging that fact save for (iirc) that one car convo with Carla and his last convo with Asmo where he decided not to leave anyone that he is in a relationship with behind).

New to this game as just recently found about the developer and his previous game so was playing both, and well damn have to say what a production it has been! It was a good fortune that well got recommended this game and played it.

Also saw the screenshot from Cari revealing about 0.10 and a big cliffhanger think it could be well either of 3 cases..... Cari is well creating a red herring, second would be Kredeon is actually not real itself so the existence of the girls could be dubious and third theory that think about is that maybe as per Idriel says that their have been many failed iterations before this attempt by MC; maybe he will fail again but like a game only on this occasion there might be a checkpoint where he actually retains his memories on what goes wrong..... because it feels odd when she says "You won't remember anyways" so maybe he'll have to fail again as the Founder presents him the dilemma of choosing between the 2 people he loves(where think Calypso is actually in danger as she doesn't feel cemented spot for LI)


Might be wrong in all these theories lol but it's fun of course to theorycraft and play this game, it's been a great ride! Dunno if the Developer lurks here or not but if you do:

Thanks for reading Dev, best wishes for ahead:)

Again, you're talking about the ending. I'm still not.

Yes, and Cari won't make a story path where one or several girls are singled out because that level of branching doesn't exist* and Cari doesn't really make fleshed out story paths if it doesn't have a corresponding ending to said path (which tracks given that you're basically punished by the game for not following a girl's route by locking you out of events or giving you a truncated version of those instead of having you experience wildly unique scenarios depending on the choices you've made and what relationship you have with the girls). /shrugs

*Edit: Not to mention Cari is pretty lazy with that shit even when he gets the opportunity to do so

Honestly who even is playing this obvious harem game with half the roster greyed out?? You're playing the game wrong and as such the dev will punish you for it.

The first guy who showed us the NPC control box seemed to think they were NPCs. They also all appear to be copies of the same girl...

Praetorians are NPCs but part of Founder's build. We can see all the Praetorians looks the same....idk if Idriel has control over them because Ulysses is the company that assigns them protocol( refer to Benjamin insulting the Praetorian). In Ogygia the Praetorians had some real players accompanied with them for hire, the ones that actually acted like humans and started fleeing are the players that signed up for money to assist Praetorians on patrol duty

A speculation but the doors to the afterlife are probably literally closed (acheron) and everyone that dies is forced to slave away without respite. Dunno whats the deal with the MC, probably a Frankenstein monster of many tries.

i thought Penny will be out-rank her by big number, since Luna feels more "casual" compared other MG.

Penny is, I think, a very strong contender for the hottest of the LIs. And while everyone has their own reasons, I think these are some common ones that Luna gets high marks:
  • Her family. Her dad is great, and has taken a definite liking to MC. Uncle, grandma, they love MC, they love Luna, they're fun to hang out with.
  • Her sense of humor. Pitch black and completely deadpan.
  • She's very sweet. She wins a $3500 implant and just gives it to her dad to bring traffic to the cafe. She apologizes to the Boggles she has to destroy (well, until the one that mimics her mom).
  • Looks aren't usually much of a factor in how I rank LIs (because they're almost always at least 8/10), but Luna is very pretty, and some of us aren't as much of a fan of giant breasts.
What tends to hurt the Carters' ranking, among those who don't rank them very high, isn't that there's something wrong with them, but that they just don't have anything all that special. Annie's the childhood friend. Nova's, well, Nova. Luna's kinda goth with a great family, dark humor, and as sweet as can be. Alex is an Olympic-class athlete, a Bardot, and has the ink. None of the Carters really have a "hook" like that. They're all beautiful women, they all have the hots for MC, but in many people's eyes, they don't have something that makes them special like many of the others.
