Well..no guessing what style of playthrough you have Dover

Svetlana's all yours, sir.
Yea Pat's always been at the top for me, she's who I wanted to be my private guard, but after the fuck seth scene and the train scene, scarlett rose right up my list. She's one more good scene from overtaking Pat.

See from your list, you like the morally flexible ones I was a bit surprised at the Katsumi hate though. Is it cuz she's a try hard?

Well I admit I do like Pat personally....as long as she apologises for listening to Alessa in screwing us over to land us in court and prison. I'll forgive her....if she very sorry hehehe. Will also agree Scarlett fun on the evil runs, especially the train scene regardless.

Katsumi...it's a little of everything in all honesty. Character model...attitude....try hard....her particular kink of sadism...that she thinks she better than everyone else, her serious lack of respect at times (she thinks she a Z4 already...silly silly girl)....just, nothing about her at all, in any perspective appeals to me, even on my evil saves, I still dislike her. Guess as a character she just rubs me the wrong way.

Sensing a theme here.
You have all those evil chicks at the top and they're surrounding poor Angelika

I have a problem.
I have saved on the required screen at the end of Chapter 7 (End of Season 1), but at the beginning of Season 2, I cannot load that save, because it does not appear.
Does the same thing happen to someone?. It has a solution?.
I should add that I am using the walkthrough mod.

Maviarab.
Thanks for your help. (Very fast, by the way).
I discovered that my version of season 1 is 0.7a.
Therefore, the save prompt did not appear in my game.
I'm already downloading 0.7b.
Thanks again.

I thought that may be the issue...was just easier to link Sancho's posts to that other guy in case it wasn't as they pretty detailed in what to do.

Glad is sorted. Rollback your saves slightly, resave them,..download 7b (and right mod) and then make the date save at the right point and you should be good

Plrease edit your post and spoiler tag this.

Plus...what I think you actually meant was: She does not offer sex at all...what she does do, is guauge whether you would be interested. 2. You are not dropped off at any island...you are left at the beach of the island that the Joy Facility is on. Ready for the start of the gameshow.

Also, if you're K1...good luck!

It’s a pity in the game there is no possibility of Kane’s suicide and the opportunity to watch the ending where it is shown what consequences he caused for everyone. and go back to prison - the game also does not provide such an option (or maybe there is just no such option yet?).
yes, of course you can turn off the game - this is also a kind of suicide, but in this case they don’t show the ending, how it all ends =)

although Kane apparently agrees to a life of slavery. although it’s strange - the Christian church has most likely already died out. that is, there should be no ideological prohibition on suicide - there is no institution that would instill in the consciousness that “suicide is a sin.” Kane clings even to the life of a slave.
he was on the seashore. he could throw himself into the sea and drown - for him the gambit would be successfully completed with HIS victory. yes, yes, it is HIS victory - since the living Kane will one way or another be forced to cooperate with this family not familiar with the concept of humanity.
It is better for Kane, as a slave, to cease to exist of his own free will, without collaborating with the Karlssons either of his own free will or under coercion, and certainly not becoming living furniture.

 

[ramvivat]

Wow..Pat and Scarlet at the top? Wasn't expecting that! Why Chanel so low if I can ask...thought you'd have her higher...

And poor poor Svetlana....don't worry Miles, I'll look after her for you...very well..very very well

what means letters and color gradation in this table?

Well,if you could suicide in the game then there would be no game so...
About coming back to the prision i think you can´t , if you accept ,your future is sealed.

Why would he do any of that?

I think you should perhaps (just a suggestion) read up on submissive behaviour (towards a dominant) to perhaps understand how Kane would think in that situation. Of course, under the right options, you could rebel and not be so easy-going about the submission...but that's not how the character is really written. Now again, this is not a D/s game as I've explained numerous time before but M/s instead but generally speaking, Kane is not against his situation (if on the sub path) but it is up to you as to whether or not he fully embraces it or not. I would even go as far to say there is certainly a degree of Stockholm Syndrome involved with Kane also on the lower sub paths. You're getting deep into the pschology of why women don't leave their abusive partners etc. it's a very complex subject.

All the prisoners are also monitored 24/7, this is explained in the game itself...and most of the lower ranks don't have the opportunity to self-harm anyway even if they wished for a swift end.

what means letters and color gradation in this table?

It's just a fun list of favourite characters...nothing less, nothing more.

 

[Sharpshooter890]

Katsumi...it's a little of everything in all honesty. Character model...attitude....try hard....her particular kink of sadism...that she thinks she better than everyone else, her serious lack of respect at times (she thinks she a Z4 already...silly silly girl)....just, nothing about her at all, in any perspective appeals to me, even on my evil saves, I still dislike her. Guess as a character she just rubs me the wrong way.

You've hit the nail on the head with this one. I would love to know how the hell she ended up as Z1 with that behaviour. I suppose Elena being her mentor helped (obviously), but that begs the question - what did Elena see in that girl? Elena values clever and thoughtful people (as seen throughout the game), but Kitty's attitude is too infantile for a solid reliable worker. So why promote her? Just because she can cut promos like a WWE superstar?

That's one thing I'd disagree with. There's always a way out. For example, run into a wall head first, or jump off the ledge, etc. Of course, you'd better take at least 1 evil bitch down with you as you go to the greener pastures (preferably, evil Olivia).

Could be possible yeah, you are right, you will only need to be quick and jump when the occasion appear.

Yup...so basically...she got promoted to Z1 for the sole reason of...doing what ever needs to be done regardless of what. Hardly promsing behaviour for an exec...and given the board must have vioted for this promotion...it's even more weird....given even Jules wants intelligent people etc.

Well true yes but as explained before, that's not who Kane is nor is it how he thinks. he is not against his situation of being submissive to his superiors as he 'knows' he is not worthy of anything else. This...back my prior as to why he like that. But I guess yeah, you probably could find a way if was that determined.

 

[ramvivat]

I have some idea. but I’m talking about the case when, as a result of the exam, Kane received K4 and rejected Samantha’s offer. that is, he went as a slave candidate. and at first he even behaved dominantly, even defiantly. but I didn’t understand when he began to behave submissively... for some reason they stopped giving options for actions where he tries to resist the circumstances. or maybe it's broken? was it broken by pain? maybe I overlooked something somewhere?

 

[ramvivat]

why women don't leave their abusive partners

if a woman has a child from such a partner, then she is unlikely to leave him, especially if the partner treats the child better - the woman begins to behave like a mother and not like a woman and lives for the sake of the child and not for herself. and in this case there is no Stockholm here.
although if there is no child, then maybe Stockholm. but Stockholm syndrome is also a shameful child of Christianity: “Christ endured and commanded us to endure.” Stockholm itself, without prerequisites, should not appear out of the blue.

This smacks of corruption, I agree that she does not deserve to be in Z1.

 

[Stan5851]

Chanel, Erica and Sonja so low. Stan! *shocked coffee face behind helmet*

I wrote about my attitude towards Chanel here, hence the low rating. As for Erica, well... she's just not my type, I love the medical examination scene because of Eloise, and I'm indifferent to Erica. (I mean, she's not ugly, but she doesn't make me feel anything). As for Sonya...Well..I don't remember any major scenes with her (on the Dom route)..In other words, I don't remember her (and I won't even name exactly where I might have seen her), unlike the other guard, Pamela, whose noble beauty did not leave me indifferent.

Even though there's only one real scene where she's forced to act like an executive, if you look at the spa scene you can see that she can stop being sadistic when it's time to stop. If it wasn't for her, Delilah likely would've drowned Zack. She follows Elena's instructions to a tee and is likely her eyes and ears when Elena's not around. It makes perfect sense why Elena would want her as an exec. That's not even mentioning the fact that the beloved gameshow is her brainchild.

Could be possible yeah, you are right, you will only need to be quick and jump when the occasion appear.

occasions - were is.
berth where Olivia (even the kind one!!!) threw darts into the ass of a tied slave (this scene shook my faith in Olivia's humanity) Kane could have thrown himself off the pier and tried to choke himself, even if he had failed to smash his head against the wall inside the complex. and there were also corners near the walls - especially convenient for breaking your skull. Moreover, by that time the shock chip should already begin to act - that is, a jump into the water. It seems the shock chip doesn't STUN - it just causes pain that can be blocked for a while. If you decide to commit suicide, then you do not pay attention to the pain and pain as such can no longer stop you. samurai who commit seppuku also experience pain - but this does not stop them.

as an option, I would also consider the possibility of escaping. but the presence of a chip multiplies the chances of escape by zero. I would rather put five cents on escaping from Alcatraz as something relatively real than on the possibility of escaping from the "joy island". so the only reasonable option is suicide as a means of escape.
