My Elis assessing who he should support in order to make sure Lockhart dies in all the paths

View attachment 4629534

No matter the outcome a political alliance with the West is useless. So I'm taking my sister back!
Seriously? I had a better plan in mind: grant a political pardon to his mother, and cuckold him by fucking his wife and the woman who gave birth to him in this wretched world just so he could become a doubly qualified cuckold.

Wait... you mean that wasnt already the planned 'canon' path? :unsure:

I mean, why *else* would you have the option to spare the mother and bring her with you? :unsure:

I am aware that the plot for 0.9 is already bounded but if there is any chance give us another go at Valeria she can get it the proper furniture breaking way this time :sneaky:

I can't figure out if it's best to side with Cass or escape during the Coup. I take it she's not the one who did the poisoning....
I just can't figure out if she was genuinely acting for the good of the kingdom and trying to find the poisoner...

She already knows who is the poisoner, probably gave her the poison herself. :KEK:

The good of the kingdom couldn't be further from her goals, but at least she's doing some good to the empire.

On the "White" routes, it seems that there will be three main approaches to handling the West:
  • Support the Nobles: The West remains a feudal society under the rule of the new Golden Empire.
  • Support the Rebels: The West transitions into a republic, negotiating an agreement that grants them some autonomy while still remaining under imperial control.
  • Enforce a Truce: A compromise is reached where the nobles retain power, but some rights are granted to the people, potentially forming a Merchant-Aristocratic Republic similar to the system that there is in the North. This option may be the most strategic, as it minimizes bloodshed and preserves both troops and population, which could be crucial for the empire’s future.
On the "Green" and "Red" routes i am still unsure if the options to "Enforce a Truce" or "Support the Nobles" will be available, i think maybe not.

I doubt it would be any different on red and Green. Both Red and Green want the empire restored and all options help towards that.
It seems that the current endings of the Green and Red paths will inevitably lead to the overthrow of the West’s rulers. If that happens, some character deaths will be unavoidable, and in the grand scheme, troop losses from this conflict may be significant.
Also on another note, I wonder if there will be an opportunity to encounter the wife we didn’t choose.

Yes! The cherry on top will be forcing Lockhart to drink white blood and have a bad trip while we impregnate his mother. But those are just possibilities.

Considering how I'm fairly sure that Red route is meant to be the whole "Reclaim your empire by blood and sword" path I really doubt peace will be an option and if it is will be heavily discouraged. As for Green ... well depends how Cass is feeling on that day and whether she gives in to murderous impulses.

The only difference between the red and green empire routes is Cass. It's not supposed to be just blood and sword
Honestly it's very different, your speaking from what we've seen so far but in reality the situation is very different. In one Cass is by our side whispering into our ears influencing our decisions, she is after all manipulative. In the other your choices are your own. Of course that's also not accounting from the difference in political position your in which's also drastically different.

Exactly, the red path is just the green path, but without cass influencing you. So I don't see how peace wouldn't be an option in the red path if the player wants it.
It's to do with idea behind it, Red Emperor path is from what I understand supposed to be you imitating or at the very least following in the footsteps of your ancestor, the one that built the Empire to begin with. Which he most certainly did not build with peace.

Really good concept, the humor and writing (despite being overly literal due to bad translation) is its greatest strength to keep it ongoing.

Main flaws in the execution is that most of the game is close to cinetic novel approach and fairly bland op MC be able to fuck everything without much adversary and consequences. Impregnating every third girl loses its charm quick. There is barely a reward for not fucking someone, neither is there a reward for faithfullness/sticking to one girl. Decisions would have more weight if advantages and disadvantages arise (you can only fuck one of two, characters die if one favor is choosen etc.), instead, there is usually one ideal choice and the other are fairly empty.

The main love interest are in the family, but aside from Cass, none of them have much variance and agency, they hardly comply and don't change or adverse to the plot. I wanted to like the wives, but they also don't do much (maybe later), Iris seems like a Cass downgrade, despite technically being even more ruthless.

Ideally, romancing your family actually influences MCs rulership accordingly. And, aside from Cass(again), the romances don't have much variance. MC either loves Erin or he doesn't there are not variances in who is in control, Erin doesn't change her stance if MC participated in the coup etc. Iris and Aurora have technical variances of love, but as of now it barely affected the sex scenes and dialogues.

TLDR, if every love interest got worked in the story branches as detailled as Cass, the game would be outstanding.
