*Sorry if this comes off as harsh, it was a looong night for me.
TLDR;
Don't fucking do it dude, it's not worth it.
Seriously, it's a grind game with ZERO FUN. I'm ~100 hrs in and I hate myself.
Unless you have i7+, 3070+, 16gram+, you'll struggle to run the game and it's 100% multiplayer online ONLY.
EVERY ITEM NEEDS TO BE BOUGHT(real money), GRINDED(ground?), or EARNED THROUGH LEVELING.
SUPPORT is almost non-existent. Github for no dev response bug reports, Discord for possible dev response bug reports.
Every single one of the Discord mods quit a couple months ago.
Why TF do you think there are OVER 700 pages on this thread? And none of us are happy. lol
Because the game we supported was turned into an online only micro-transaction hell hole, with key features being utterly ignored(VR/Gallery/Story).
***************************************************************************************************
I have the official version. I think we're on 0.8.1a now
Changelog? Not that I know of.
Additional DLC? Not yet.
YES you are FORCED to go into Harem mode to see animations.
They did just update Gallery Mode, removing all camera movements(fixed position) and fixing some "bugs".
But additional harem content does NOT transfer, clothes do not transfer, and only main 3 characters are available.
VR NON-EXISTENT HERE AS WELL.
AS OF RIGHT NOW, afaik, you are NOT locked out of content for not purchasing additional DLC because there is none
YET.
If you bought the serial($36+), you should have been given the 3 MAIN characters(Alet, Anya, Erika), then they should have given you NEP(green in-game currency) to get Celia and Elizabeth when those came out, and then finally when Juzi just came out I was given NEP for her character as well. From the comments on the posts on their Patreon that I can see/read, it looks like there are still people having problems with recieving it.
* Galatea i think is up in the air if she'll be automatically included in the main pass, I would assume to assuage the thousands of people who signed up in the years prior she will be offered for "free" as well.
AS FOR ANYONE ELSE, I think
those characters will need to be purchased. But we aren't anywhere near there yet..
(although there are YEARS of concept art for characters/clothes/weapons/backstories on their Patreon)
With the characters they have, it would take 150++ hours to max them all.
BTW I'm almost at 100hrs playtime and have 2 characters @ 99%, 1 @~25%, the other 3 are @0%
I'm lvl ~85 in sanity.
I might be wrong on specifics, cuz idgaf, but I do know what I'm talking about with the game.
DO NOT FURTHER YOUR MONETARY DONATION.
Because it's a DONATION, Helius will do nothing but drop the ball and waste your time.
Remember this is a 10 year old project now, apparently started sometime in 2014.
And they ALREADY developped THE SAME game just to drop it completely.

***************************************************************************************************
If you want MORE EXPLAINATION, start QUICKLY scanning the thread log here. You'll see there are a handful of us who have experience with Helius or currently have the game. there are literally like a handful of the same people lol read their posts. (3 of them have already posted literally above). A handful of my last posts on this thread have been screen shots of the current game, if that's what you're after.
I don't want to repost what we all repost constantly.
**** I have been thinking about making a full write up and then pinning it in my signature so I can just link to it when someone ineviedably asks about the game again. But it's just sooo much work for a game idgaf about anymore
