So is Nicki just gone now if we're on the "dark path" or is there a scenario in which she stays? Would be sad to loose her, such a nice toy..
The dark path has consequences. You'll only get to do so much with them before they leave.

If you've done all the dark stuff so far then Nicki and Viola are gone with Ashe on her way.

wait, what? is that new? that’s retarded
No, it's not new, dev has said that would happen from the start.

It was laid out, if you're too much of a dick to the girls they will leave. There are consequences for being a complete twat in game.

I'm a little confused NeonGhosts said that more scenes will be added to the version that releases to the next tier soon
And then even more will be added to the public version.

So, my question is do I have to replay the update again once the public version is out?
Thats a really vaild question , Also the link sons sent for 0.8 is it In need or indeed?.
some guys before mentioned there are no scenes (lewd) so far, Which is kinda weird but if it's indeed version then it does make sense.

Ch1 - Nicki (being remade)
Wait what? You changing Nicki? Her story? It's bad enough she can leave, I hope you are not changing any of the great scenes of her.

Yeah it's your baby and you can do what you want, but I personally love it as is.

Gah, hate consequences in vns. I had no idea the dev stated that it would happen. It's the one thing this vn had going for it above others. Thanks for news albeit sad news.

Kind of defeats the point of even having the dark path in the first place. If you aren't going to let people enjoy going down the dark route then don't offer it in the first place. Will be fun playing the dark path in a few more updates when there's no girls left

Exactly, the dark path is what this game offers different to others. If the dark path is moving away from what the dev is going to do, I would appreciate it being told.

I mean imagine someone irl being a dick blackmail you etc.. you want to leave ASAP, So this gives this VN kick of reality which is good.
Because knowing if you do certain things you are fucked later make you focus on dialogs, Scenes etc... it catches you good.

I don't play these vns for real life or realism if I did I wouldn't be playing incest or dark paths lol. I play vns for fantasy wishfulfilment and escape from the real life.

To me it's weird some want realism only when it comes to the dark paths and not with like virgins, incest and harems. But everyone is different.

I personally hate consequences in a vn, and to be honest in movies. I would find movies like Rambo boring AF if it was realistic and half the movie was him standing trial for all the people he killed e.g.

Yeah thousands of other games where you go love route whereas dark routes are far and few between. It was the main appeal of this one for me but now we're pretty much getting forced onto the love route

I just downloaded the game and it ends at the same point that the previous version did. What am I doing wrong?

What's the title got to do with anything? It clearly says you can be good or evil many times in the op. Just because you only read the title doesn't mean everyone else does

That's actually a very interesting consideration.
What happens if an author decides later to destroy or strongly alter one of his previous works? Actually, i don't know to what extent, there are laws that prevent this occourance, in general to protect important works of art when an artist, as not so rarely happen, go nuts with age.

if I only read the title then how was I also aware that the dev stated that the "taboo patch" would push the girls away? :HideThePain:

Never complained. People are allowed opinions and just because an opinion is different to yours doesn't mean someone is complaining. And your post clearly only stated one point that people shouldn't expect a dark path because "friend" was in the title so if what you said had nothing to do with the title then why did you only mention the title?

To be fair to dev, it is not per se going on dark path that drives them away. Going too far for the girl in question on dark path is what drives them away. See it like a non canon bad ending for overdoing it, but had the great scenes anyway. This is a game with high replayability, lots of choices and different paths that sometimes preclude each other, that is unlikely to change and is as much an unique selling point for this game as the darker paths. So it makes sense it also goes for those darker paths.

We will have to see if we will always agree with the dev on his choices on that and answer is likely no, since we have different wants and life experiences and sometimes cultural based opinions on how someone should react in a given situation. Until now this is a most interesting game though so I would ask everyone to let dev do his thing mainly. Feedback can always be useful though for a dev whether something landed with his audience as he intended.
