Unreal Engine Fallen Doll: Operation Lovecraft [v0.4.9 Cracked] [Project Helius]

[HardcoreCuddler]

did they take out the horse monster to keep it on steam?

horse doesn't exist in fallen doll unless you see it, and that applies to everything else too.
if it's not in the game already, don't even consider it, because things were mentioned several years ago that never made it into the game to this day.

 

[BananaJK]

Imagine if they decide to continue to work on the first fallen doll instead of making new one with this all bullshit after.

 

[eva-unit01]

When is this game ever coming out officially?

Never
It's a patreon scam made to milk as much money as they can.
And when the sub count will start to fall too low for Helius's tastes, he will shutdown the project and start a new one to raise his paypig numbers.
He already more or less confirmed it, i believe someone posted a snapshot of discord logs where he says that a few pages back.

 

[Mr. Libido]

Aw man that sucks!
I Discovered this game on Patreon the other day, and tried to find a pirated version everywhere, I even made an account on this site just for that.
Tried the cracked version and I liked it, but from the talks of y'all this game is in a development hell hotter than the Florida sun right now.
There is a tier on Patreon that mentions six season passes, how much each one will cost individually?

Do yourself (and everyone else) a favor and don't give them any money until they get their shit together. Right now it's just encouraging shitty behavior.

I don't think they've given out any information on pricing but from the closed beta the design of the battle passes is such that it is still incredibly painful to unlock anything even if you buy one for a character. Naturally they then sell in game currency and booster items etc.

So if this game actually releases, which admittedly it probably won't, don't go by the battle pass pricing but rather by the reviews and microtransaction pricing as this game is very heavily monetized now even for people that "purchased" it back when it wasn't such a shitshow.

You got the wrong idea partner, I was asking for the price just so I could put them all together and see the bigger picture, of how much this game would cost.

But a cracked version would solve all of this, wouldn't it? I downloaded the cracked version here and it looks fine if you play it for free.

To be honest the cracked version is a stable build. At least there are still methods to enjoy this game, sadly the game will never officially come out because the devs refuse to keep developing it.

Its not in development hell.
The development is purposefully bad so that they don't get too much drama when they'll axe the poject.
They're also actively making the game a chore to play, for example, next patch is going to make it even grindier than it was

But the cracked version here on this site has none of that.
From what I'm getting from y'all is that the head honcho of this game is making slow progress on purpose so he can make as much money as possible, or he is just greedy.
Let's say this game comes out one day, a crack would solve all these problems, wouldn't it? Cause it would unlock everything and we wouldn't have to spend a dime on season passes and the such, the cracked build on this site has everything unlocked from the get-go. And the game looks pretty as a peach.

A crack will never come for this because :
-> They use Denuvo and there's like 2 people in the world still cracking it, and not for free
-> 90% of the game is online based, so when the server dies, the game will be dead and unplayable + i don't believe anyone will loose their time developping a dummy server to try reviving it

The cracked version here is a relic, this won't get ever updated in the official release and by Helius' words, be removed entirely because it runs on different code than what is their focus now. You won't get any new girls or poses for it.

The Denuvo part would be easy actually, he can't pay for that forever.
About the server, I can't say anything about it, too dumb for that.

 

[McAztec]

In that case I'm sorry. To be fair the advice was aimed more at anyone else who might think this is a game worth spending on.

It's okay partner, I made an account on this site to get games for free.
Still, when the head honcho's pockets dry out I think we could salvage something from this game, Denuvo is not forever. And pirates always find a way.
Papaw used to say that there is no free lunch, but the internet proved him wrong.

The first issue here is that Denuvo contracts typically charge from release, read the first few paragraphs of the document

You must be registered to see the links

for an example. Helius is likely playing on this for a free lunch given that the standard fee for Denuvo is

which would otherwise be insane even if he managed to wrangle some discount for an older version.

The second issue is that this game is being made as a F2P under a GaaS model. Users don't own the game and Helius is under no obligation to release a Denuvo free version if he kills it. The more likely outcome is that the servers would shut down and the game would stop being made available simultaneously which wouldn't help anyone crack it.

The third issue is that reverse engineering a server from the client is hard work. It only happened in the current build because the server barely did anything and everything, even updating player positions, was done over a Rest API with zero encryption. The new builds are constantly opening connections and communicating with the server and everything is encrypted with TLS, you can still get around that if Denuvo is removed but the likelihood of anybody actually doing it for a subpar animation viewer is slim.

From where I'm from, people work hard for a dollar, Do these people know they are paying to make a free-to-play game? But if it's free to play, it's like what? Genshin, FGO kinda of thing? Do we get a free character when we make an account?

. Turns out it's easier to convince people to pay small amounts frequently over a year than an equivalent sum as an up front cost, and all you need to do in the interim is churn out some low cost models/animations or whatever to add to a game framework you've already developed.

Not sure how they plan on introducing players but it will probably be something like having a few free characters but no access to the "battlepass" which lets you unlock content. Last time I played the closed beta though it was a mess and nothing worked properly so it wasn't really clear what the intent was (I think it's still this way from what I've seen on the Steam forums).

That said those subbing on Patreon certainly didn't know they were paying to make a F2P game and boy oh boy were they pissed when Helius pulled the rug on the single player game he'd be stringing them along with for ~5 years. Now it's 8 years in total since development started and they still have fuck all to show for it. If nothing else it is at least hilarious to watch.

A roguelike strategy game featuring squad tactics and deck building, paired with a real-time sexually explicit third person sandbox supporting up to 10 players on the same map. Command glamorous investigators as they battle (and bed) cultists & eldritch horrors from Cthulhu mythos. <=== This is the description of the game on Steam, so all of that was cancelled?

Yeah the "campaign" was put on indefinite hiatus but personally, given that we've never seen so much as screenshots or had any descriptions of how it was meant to work, I doubt it ever existed in any real form.

They do have "combat drill" which is the current promised gameplay loop but again that is similarly absent from actual builds. It was meant to be in the "rebuild" where they didn't release a patch for 14 months but was notable absent. As was anything else of any real merit. The game servers crashed after they launched it and didn't go back up for a month, it was hilarious.

It's really hard to overstate how much of a shitshow this games development is.

Holly moly!
Just checked their Patreon and there are 13,004 people backing this, don't know what to make of this.
And you tell me that this train has been running for 8 years? Goddamn! Why didn't someone pull the brakes on this?
