Yeah, for sure. Don't rush things. HC3 is a really ambitious project. I'd like to know though: Will you still be able to update the game monthly, once the demo is out?
I should be able to, yes. Currently, I don't see why I wouldn't. The updates would be smaller in size though, and instead of saying, "I will publish it on X day", I might give myself a 3-4 days period within which I would release any new update. So instead of saying "on the 10th of x month", I'm more likely to say "between the 10 and 14th of x month", so I can properly test everything that needs to.
The only update that will need to be pushed back slightly is the first update after the demo. Probably to early November. The reason being that, since it's the demo, there will probably be a ton of things to fix and tweak here and there, even more when I first release it to the public around 15 days after the first Patreon release.
oh man I really hope we dont get to see magic involved in the corruption process in any way. I personally absolutely dont like it. Its something that always troubled me in HC1 and 2 already.
It gets rid of the corruption, it is no real cheating in the sense of conscious betrayal, its not about the performance of the antagonists in bed but rather the drug or magic that makes them horny... yeah it takes almost everything I like in a good corruption/NTR game. So I really do hope that whatever you are saying with "There will indeed be magic involved in the corruption process ..." you dont really mean^^
I'm a bit confused by your comment since, as far as I remember, there was close to no magic/quick corruption devices being used in HC1 or HC2. There was even a quest with Thania where the Professor thinks he's using aphrodisiacs, while it's actually just plain perfume.
When I say magic will be involved, I don't mean as a means to fasten the corruption, but simply as a trigger, to give the antagonists a reason to try and corrupt the heroines. It will have no effect on the heroines themselves, and if it ever does in later updates, I'll be keeping it to a bare minimum, just enough to make the corruption process appear slightly more realistic.
Well I looked at this, lets say in a more methodical approach. Still I could be completly wrong of course. But if you take a closer look at the map and the tavern, as well as the casern, you will find special places for certain persons: 1.) The commander of the guard 2.) the tavern owner - one of the brothers 3.) the magic shop - the other brother 4.) the duke's manor.
As N_Taii needs good places for juicy scenes to unfold, I would assume he prepared them beforehand. Why would N_Taii insert a random room for the commander if it has no certain importance for the story. And as I know N_Taii almost everything we see in the game is based on purpose thus by looking at what we have got we get hints on what is to come. N_Taii is cunning though, so he might wanna mislead us
My guess is as follows:
1) Lily (the little ginger childhood friend): Definitely the tavern owner (95% sure)
2.) Rose (the princess): Definitely the duke (99.9% sure)
3.) Cyanna (the sister): The commander of the guard (50% sure)
4.) Haylen (the mother/nun): Dont know about her. Maybe the guard who helped Leto in the beginning. Maybe the magic shop owner. I personally would love to see a young adult brat (eg. just reached adulthood) who gives her the love and hard hand she seeks. God I would love it - I always love to see the adult, mature mother type beeing taken by a young brat. Dunno, kinda like the contrast I guess.
Hmmm, I sometimes add stuff and locations without an actual plan, just to give my imagination more room to come up with sex scenes and story in different contexts and situations in later updates. But you're right, almost every location in HC3 fulfills some kind of role in the game.
As for your list, well, I won't spoil anything. The commander will indeed play a role in the game, but not the one you think. Or maybe he will, but not the way you think? Anyway, this is getting confusing ; )
I don’t see this argument against magic/aphrodisiac in corruption if anything I think it adds to it as long as it’s not something like complete mindcontrol but more enhancing sensitivity and assisting with eroding the womens morals over time. I especially like when the aphrodisiac drives them crazy only for them to get whiplash the day after when it wears off
That's my idea too. Magic, hypnosis or aphrodisiacs are a difficult thing to use in corruption games. It needs to be properly balanced so it adds some realism to explain why the women succumbed to the pleasure the way they did, but if they are too potent, it makes the whole corruption process very unsatisfying.
Not extremely fond of powerful aphrodisiacs though, even if limited in time.
