Yikes, when you are advising someone that clearly doesn't know what he is doing you need to inform him what are the potential risks of what you are suggesting him to do.


There is no myth here. What you are referring as myth is the expectation that average user will reach the cell lifetime limit before reaching the write limit. It is fact that SSD have limited amount of writes - the initial ones i believe had 5000 writes then it quickly was trimmed down to 1200 then 600 and now you have ones with 300 write limit.
1TB +600 write limit - you probably can't reach the write cycle limit, 128gb+300write limit - you sure can.
I know everything will break/stop working at some point.
What I don't know is the technical aspect of this but I have real life experience to compensate for it.
To put it simple:
  • I bought an ssd several years ago(5 years ago, according to CrystalDiskInfo)
  • Immediately installed windows on it
  • I've been using it eversince and my system is on 24/7
  • I never changed pagefile settings and I rarely do system restarts(because of driver updates, mostly for graphics card but I sometimes ignore/skip some versions if I don't need that specific update)
  • I played(and still play) a lot of performance heavy games on it

I've never encountered any slowdowns or ssd errors so far.
So, even without knowing the technical details such as life expectency of an ssd, it is safe to say using pagefile won't break any ssd's.

Pagefile is also the most write intensive task for average user.
Average computer user browses internet, rarely opens office programs if they need and maybe plays an online game every once in a while to have fun with friends, I don't understand why you think windows would be using pagefile instead of ram for any of that, unless the computer in question has only 4 gb of ram or something.

Back to the topic, playing fallendoll on an ssd with pagefile enabled won't cause any problems, but without pagefile you risk hard system crash followed by the dreaded blue screen of death. All because this "game" is an unoptimized garbage. So you should never rely on a dev for perfectly optimizing their games for your pagefileless unusual system.

On the first page click the spoiler labelled "How to install cracked Harem version:", I suspect the bit you missed is starting with launch.bat or KiritoMod049.exe.
  1. If you are using the steam version of the game (not the demo), make a copy and modify that!
  2. Go to the root folder and delete everything except the Paralogue and Engine folders.
  3. Go to Paralogue\Binaries\Win64 and delete everything
  4. Go back to the root and extract the zip there
  5. If it asks if you want to overwrite steam_api64.dll press yes.
  6. If it did not ask then you are doing something wrong.
  7. Start with Launch.bat or Paralogue\Binaries\Win64\KiritoMod049.exe


I know this might sound stupid but I don't understand the instructions. It asks me to delete everything except Paralogue and Engine. then delete everything in Win64. Then i need to extract the zip in "root" (wtf is ROOT, i assume main game folder with the Paralogue and Engine folders). But what do I extract ? The exact same zip file of the 0.49 game version (Harem Cracked) ??? I don't understand these instructions, they are confusing

Consumer SSDs (unless it's some horrible piece of crap) have life expectancy, on the low end, in the low hundreds of TB. On the high end, over 1000TB. Reads are free. Example, my main OS/game drive, a Samsung 970 EVO 1TB I installed in 2020: 22,933GB Written, 44,464GB Read. Rated endurance: 600TB. The higher the capacity the more write endurance. SSDs are over-provisioned with NAND flash chips specifically to make up for failing/failed sectors.

To the person worried about it. You can try a program like CrystalDiskInfo if you want to see how many writes your SSD has completed, if the controller keeps track, some don't.

Point is, don't worry about it.

Edit: Went back two pages and the only points kind of glossed over was the "writes" numbers without the designation of what "writes" means in terms of size.

So in light of Stadia being (predictably) axed last week, anyone have any speculation on who Helius has supposedly contracted to host the asset streaming part of Harem mode in his misguided anti-piracy attempt? It can't be one of the major players, but has to be a company with big enough to support that kind of content and infrastructure.

Only one I can think of at the moment is DMM, but also in light of R18 being forced to shut down because payment processors bending to pressure from Exodus Cry, I have to wonder if they're next on the chopping block.

Skip to step 7 if you didn't use steam version that all.
It's pretty unclear to mention steam version and already crack version that you can download on first page.

It will all become much more public once the game hits Steam officially. IF it ever does at this point. Right now the only place you can criticize them is on their Patreon, which you have to pay them to even post. Their Discord (which they delete the message and ban you), the Steam beta discussions (Which they delete the message and ban you) or here which they can't touch but the game is still bloated with early 5 star reviews and doesn't have a proper rating anymore. With Steam being the public facing method of obtaining the full game, no one will buy it when the reviews are all negative. I'm sure they'll still sanitize the discussions like the scum they are but the reviews will show in the end.
Steam is where games like these thrive, it's not where they go to die by public execution.

Look at nearly every major controversial H-game that's made it to that platform, they're doing fantastically over there because it's an influx of players who have no clue what the development history was like, and they're molded by Steam H-game standards so they think those games are revolutionarily good.

Mainstream exposure is not the ally you seem to think it is, as soon as this game hits Steam all the criticisms, lies, and broken promises will get swept away by the easily impressed masses who don't have any context for why they should dislike the game and/or developers and anyone who tries to spread that context to them will be shrugged off as simply being a hater.

There are plenty of half assed h-game projects on Steam sitting on mixed/negative reviews after launching with limited content so I don't think it's a safe bet that this game would get destroyed in Steam reviews but if it launches in something akin to its current state, which seems all but inevitable, I wouldn't rule it out either.

Remember this is an h-game with a weird multiplayer system plus a season pass and microtransaction focus. Throw in them seemingly abandoning any hope of adding any gameplay systems to it and I think there's a fair chance of a negative reception.

Perhaps they'll unveil the combat drill mode and it will be some beautifully crafted masterpiece, or at least introduce a competent gameplay loop so OL isn't just a glorified UE5 animation viewer, but it seems unlikely given that all they've mentioned in their recent "rebuild" posts are basic multiplayer functions that nobody really cares about and new assets/map.

has drm microtransactions and a battle pass
Technically as of right now, those aren't monetarily driven just grind intensive(with required online multiplayer mode).
But I assume everyone expects(suspects) that will change once it ever goes live, which doesn't look like ever.

Also from here on out the game will need an internet connection to work.
If you don't want to pay for the game and find it somewhere online like this website, the game would still need to be "modded" for it to work in any realistic way(beyond base content): Gallery mode would need to be populated with content/clothing you can only acquire from online play.

So unless there's someone out there watching this thread or somewhere else, that's smart enough to do that, this game's kinda dead in the water for those who want it free.
I think the version floating around is either before drm(0.34) or a network blocked version of 0.49(gallery mode only).

OHH and btw I have pretty much all the content in the harem mode(or whatever they call it).
The gallery mode and harem mode have two separate sets of position cards.
There are a lot of cards that I cannot use in gallery mode.

So the game would have to be heavily modded to get gallery mode working with harem mode content, and even more work to get the harem server faked. And you'd have to do one or the other(or both I guess) to be able to "play" the game without purchasing it.

And even then, there is no STORYLINE. No real game. It's a sex simulator.

HS2 with mods does and looks like the same thing.
Hell in that game I can even corrupt 'em, or marry 'em. Or both.


Great Graphics, extremely sus devs.
Absolute scam of a game.

[...] this game's kinda dead in the water for those who want it free.
It's kinda dead even for a subset of people who were willing to pay for it, any porn game isn't worth the online-only DRM bullshit. There's no guarantee that Helius won't just look at the recurring revenue, decide it's not worth it, and just axe it like Google did Stadia or Square-Enix did Babylon's Fall.

Helius is a terrible project manager and I don't expect his stubbornness to make him any better of a businessman.

i'm sorry i think i'm really really blind or stupid (your judge) i have a few questions and i hope some1 can help
1 (img) , i downloaded the zip with no problem and got this, but when i try to run the game:
a. the first icon named "fallendoll" opens my steam
b. the second icon named "fallendollLauncher" opens a launcher but just when the bar is almost complete it says "easy-anticheat is not installed"
what should i do?
(i'm sorry if the question is dumb and hace the most obvious and simple answer but i'm used to just extract and run games and really don't know how to solve this kind of situations)
