Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but is anyone else having troubles playing this on mac? I followed the steps in the included the doc, changed the permissions, but now I'm getting a read only error after selecting a language, from the looks of it, while the game is attempting to generate a save directory? I tried running the windows version through Wine, but it just says it could not be loaded with a black screen, no other errors/popups.

A game that eats up all the ram and requires needless grinding, thanks for the blue balls but I had to close the app before it crashed my computer.

I give it a +1 for world building and another +1 small penises BUT I'll also give it a -1 for the poor optimisation and another -1 the "I unironically think people play this kind of games for the rpg aspect".

I don't want to have to carefully ration saves and healing items to play your game. I'm not exactly in it to use my brain or have a challenging experience :p
Maybe avoid RPG's then.

The whole point to them is for the challenging experience and to use your brain.

Are you running it on a toaster?

It's a porn game. You know, for masturbating to. The porn is literally the only reason to play the game. Without the porn, it has 0 redeeming features. It's masturbatory material. To lock that material behind frustrating mechanics and punish the player arbitrarily makes no fucking sense. If the challenge was fun that would be one thing, but to say "Oh well, you get only a few saves with no explanation of this function, plus there's no way to rest and heal yourself (you know, like you do in other RPGs) just cuz we wanted it to be harder >:3" That's fucking stupid. Arbitrary road blocks do not make a fun game, and your defense of these 'features' tells me all I need to know about how valid your opinion is.

Imagine if every time you went to McDonald's to buy a sandwich, they made you do a little dance before they gave you the food. "Why do I have to do that? It makes no sense!"

"We won't give you your food if you don't do the silly dance teehee :3"

It adds nothing

I wouldn't even be this pissed if the game was a pile of shit. I was enjoying myself, what's there is great, except for these huge road blocks the devs felt a need to include. It's just silly, dude. How can you not see that?

Some people really like "gaming" their smut games. If it's not for you then just move on. I recommend Tales of Androgyny. Less grind and in my opinion, way better art and dialogue.

Fair warning though, majority of the dickgirls in it are shemales, not herms.

I feel like I'm not communicating effectively. It's never been a strong suite of mine.

The gameplay that is there, isn't fun.

Take a (completely unrelated) game like Violated Heroine. That game is fun on its own, even without the hentai. It has a satisfying combat experience with some beautiful sprite-work and a serviceable story that's much better than your run-of-the-mill hentai game story.

Hard Love nails everything except the gameplay. I love how there's a bit of depth to the universe. The character art is sexy and gorgeous. It's great at sexy teasing, and it has a suitable premise of a story.

Limited resources are not a good fit for this game.

The burden of proof actually lies with you:
What does having extremely limited saves add to the experience? Every other RPG maker game, by and large, unlimited saves, even if you can only save in certain areas.

What does having no place to heal your character add? There might be a time later when you are able to heal freely, but where I gave up at was when I had misspent all my money, had limited healing items left, and no place to heal, while in order to advance the story I had to grind mobs to get an item.

I don't understand why you're defending these stupid functions??? They add literally nothing!

I want to love this game. It nails everything except where it places arbitrary limits on you for no real reason. "Muh challenge." I challenge you to explain how it adds a satisfying challenge to the game. Do you think this shit is Dark Souls? Like wtf :LOL: You just have bad taste if you think these functions are defensible.

I don't really understand how some people are having so much trouble playing this game. Sure i guess the limited save thing isn't really necessary but i've had none of the problems you're talking about, and i always had a save ready whenever i wanted/needed to use one. I thought the game was a breeze to play through, the only thing i felt was too bad was that i finished the current content a lot sooner than i had hoped.

It's not that i disagree with your arguments when it comes to adult RPGs, it's just that i never had the feeling that any of them were an issue during my time playing the game.

That's fair enough. I spent the day drinking, so that may have had something to do with it.

I'm with Blebjeb, and one of those people everyone hates who requests saves every once in a while (if a game feels egregiously slow, I won't bother wasting my time even if the art looks dank). But we can all agree like Bleb said, it's a porn game. We're mostly all here to do our thing and get enjoyment out of it. Most of the games I pick up here (or wherever when it comes to this category) come down to the art style and if it's something I'm looking forward to.

Business of loving, Insexual Awakening, Mythic Manor, HS Tutor, Slice of venture, a town uncovered, . All while long, had ways to make the grind short without punishing the player at all for skipping text that takes a million years just to name a few.

I'm just trying to find some good artists who make some litty titty shit that you just aren't gonna see in Manga/hentai that is daily/monthly/weekly released to change things up every once in a while. So cut people some slack if they want to just enjoy the artists work and get to the good stuff without much play.

I really appreciate the games that give importance to dick size. I think the scene that most represented this was the Maya part with her two friends and the little green-haired girl
It's very bullshit games that make all characters have the same size dicks, and this game doesn't do that (thanks).

I don't have to do a dance but they ask me to give them paper or little copper circles or a digital promise that I will. It's really weird. I'd prefer the dance myself tbh.

From most of the comments in this thread, it seems to be a combination of illiteracy and good old fashioned foolishness. The only time I had an issue with limited saves was in the dev's first release that didn't explain the system properly ( sounded like your save tokens would get recharged when you visited a statue, it also didn't have a gallery at the time so I was using those saves to have points where I could re-view scenes ). Game's a cakewalk.

As for the Saves and save statues - yeah, they are kind of a limiting. To the point that, you ask yourself "how can you save?" But then comes those Tokens, you always collect - "Amulet of the Goddess"(in spanish: Amuleto de la Diosa). And if the Amount, you collect isn't sufficient enough to, 'save on every step' - just 'save edit' your save. until they fix this issue and make either save possible through Menu or the CD on those Statues will be rushed down much faster.
