Thanks for your review. Sad that it seems to be a step down.
Does it have a parasite/pregnancy scene that's comparable to mission mermaiden?
If you played the demo, the parasite that you could get in it is still here, although nerfed to make it less of a chore.
If you haven't played it, to sum it up: The way you get it is similar (roughly) to how you get the mermaiden one: One of the starting enemy can inflict this larva onto you. If you don't take care of it, it will evolve into the more dangerous version.
It adds a gauge which passively build up while moving. Once 75% full, Hachina can't run anymore. And once 100% full, you get the choice to relieve yourself with the parasite to lower the gauge. Rinse and repeat until you get rid of it. It's pretty neat although it can get annoying really fast.
The other parasites are also interesting, gameplay wise, although they don't add scenes. The nose one makes you more sensitive to aphrodisiac gas but highlight secrets with a yellow aura thingy. The voice one, meanwhile, blocks the "resist" option during scenes.
I don't remember seeing anything remotely close to pregnancy.
Has anybody found out the use of this yet? I can't seem to figure it out, either.
I don't think it's supposed to do anything. It might be leftover from an earlier debug version.
Has anyone the faintest idea what the two shrines do yet? One of them is in the Nameless Road where you first start, and another in the Silver Mine. Completed the game and basically got everything done, but still looks like nothing changed. The dubious text remains the same. Maybe it's just random flavor text ig
I believe it's just flavor text, yes. If I remember well, the silver mine one tells you to not meet the gaze of the hypnotic eye things, while the starting one is nothing (it might be here to teach you that you can interact with stuff).
