No. This is actually the right way to do it.

"show don't tell" doesn't apply to this or any of the situations thus far. MC is ignorant of pretty much everything, these infodumps are needed.

It makes perfect sense for the conversation on the train to happen and to be able to ask all those questions.

If I were MC I'd have asked all of those and more. Unlike you, apparently, I wouldn't want to arrive in a different kingdom completely ignorant of the people who live there
except the mc is nuclear jesus apparently so at the end of the day the infodumps don't really do anything and the game is already showing this, why would you show 5 different infodumps about the elves if the next scene will just be a random elf making the mc mad and the mc trying to not kill her just by being angry

wanted to tell me the elves have a council? make a scene about a random guard telling the mc that they need to address the council when he arrives at elven territory and not a random infodump

wanted to tell me that the elves live with a couple of races together? show me a random pixie and a centaur when the mc enters elven territory not a random infodump

this is a classical tell don't show situation

its the way how is it told - not if

80% of the "story" is "mc's thoughts"
the other 20% is getting npc's shoved in your face without a real introducion

and the mc unable to say "no" - except for some lewd scenes - and being this ...puzzy... does not make it any better
nicole for example - mc can reject the love path , but being this submissive to her for no reason - wtf

good idea of a game - horrible execution

The rewrite of text make disapear a lot of little choice... Again a game turn in a kinetic + (see or not sex scene).
So no this game is NOT a heavy oriented choice game, you should not lie to the reader in the intro Mr dev.

Been playing through the VN for the first time. So far everything looks good, except for two extremely small typos in dialog. Specifically misplaced spaces splitting words instead of separating two words:

Keep up the excellent work!

*Edit: Another small typo. This should be the MC speaking, not his thoughts:

*Edit 2: Annoyingly, I forgot to capture the first time the split word typo happened, and now I'm having a bitch of a time finding it to help resolve it. :(

Honestly, such a small thing to complain about, you should reallyj ust get over it....
Honestly not complaining. Giving feedback.

I feel like you should always give feedback to the devs since their work is being posted here for free. Helping them polish it in return seems like a small ask.

Day 7 in Arboria has a few more glitches. Some missing images, and some black frames that seem to have been captured in the animation loops.


Code:
# Missing Images:
images/
  ADay_7/
  - ad7s2a02.webp
  - ad7s2a02.webp
  - ad7s4a03v.webp
  - ad7s4a06.webp
  - ad7s4b04.webp
  - ad7s4b05.webp
Weirdly, a secondary error was thrown later, but it wasn't a true error, just a generic not found message (This time not requiring a rollback/ignore).

Seems like a decent enough game from what I've played of it so far. Though I could do without all the superfluous options.

I get the ones for people who may what to skip dialogue but the ones during sex scenes kind of ruin the scene by taking me out of the moment. I'd prefer a linear progression during that sort of thing with the only options being for preferences if needed.

Edit; Yeah, the more I get into it the more the sex scenes are becoming kind of tedious. At least the first scene with Veen is. I don't enjoy having to navigate through menus and cycling through repeating dialogue when I could just be enjoying hot renders and the intimacy between the characters.

Well, I for one would prefer the sex scenes being done without the animation. It is way too janky and detracts from the scene rather than adds to it.

Hey everyone,
The cursed release (0.6) is finally done and public for everyone to consume! What a long and frustrating ride it has been (lol), but most of the bigger bugs are resolved.
TLDR: 0.6.1 is progressing quickly with a full progress report slated for next Friday. A poll will come out tomorrow afternoon for the character of the week for next Friday's post. Coffee!!!
FYI...from this posted on Patreon the developer is working on the bugs (missing images, ect.).

Regards.

This update is a huge buggy mess. The screen flashes, have missing image errors, and actually breaks if you try to name every character when they are introduced. Gonna wait for the 6.1. Hopefully that fixes all the issues.
Yep, got the same thing.

Overall, I like this game, bugs aside. I did run into some odd, maybe funny images though.

Umm, that sounds more like a disease than a time period. Devs, if you see this, that should be millennia.

You'll put your eye out, kid

Are they showering in Flint, Michigan or something? What is with the sudden case of the measles?

Umm, darlin', your sense of direction is messed up.
