Just doing little updates here at times -- Two people have successfully tested the entire sub path and given me their list of little things. They are not sub players at all so their advice is much more about basic flow, renders, dialogue, etc. As I tweak those, I will be shifting to what I consider "true" sub players to look at it next (maybe 2-3 people) so I am kind of about 90 percent done with major editing on this side. The dom path content is almost done, I am working on the very last scene and will start editing there when done. On the sub side -- for over 2,100 images it's about 100 renders to correct which is near my typical (5%) or so. Music is not there yet, and not a priority yet until I catch the dom path up to a similar state. (this is the last thing I add for final testing to get vibe checks, etc.)

The process for editing is typically for me --> 1) look for major dialogue and render errors on a first pass (just really obvious at first glance 2) fix/tweak those as I can 3) heavy testing of branches and flags and that they are all working (this is more time consuming as I have to basically use a console shift command to track variables as I go and see if they add/subtract create flags, etc. 4) play test multiple saves from prior update and see if they seem to work well and checking dialogue/renders again 5) let a few others test at this point 6) I go back and re-test with all changes and play as much as possible 7) start adding music last) extras like titles/outros (usually done after Test Version)

It is likely I will not put in 1 scene for the sub path and 1-2 scenes for the dom path in the initial Test Version. It will depend on time (last update I only had I think 1 scene from each side out) but mostly I want to get a lot of feedback from other stuff to ponder how I want to tweak these scenes since they are usually the last ones and important to me. But we'll see.

I anticipate sometime this week I will announce (middle of next week technically) I am done with the dom path content rough draft and I will likely be almost done with sub editing entirely near the same time. That will leave heavy dom path editing left. So hopefully I can in the near future announce an estimated release date for the Test Version 0.8.2

Sam’s ass is growing on me
Sam's ass is a work of ass...I mean art ;) I've always loved Sam from her first appearance. Crazy as hell...absolute sadistic lunatic...but I still love her. That train scene with Scarlet...damn....was long awaited! All I need to die happy now is a Sam/Pat threesome with them both begging...ugghh...*shudders*
That's correct, but technically Kane is still a slave as long as he's classified K, regardless of which path he takes.
Correct.
Yeah, the only difference is that on the Dom route it is exactly "technically", and in fact it is pure formality (we drive Bugatti Veyron, live in luxurious apartments, have personal slave girls, sexual female assistants and have fucked all the Karlsson sisters, not to mention a significant part of the JoyFacility staff. Whereas in the case of the sub route it is like a true slavery where no one asks the slave's opinion and sadistic bitches abuse and humiliate them as they please.
Good point for sure.

(Apologies for double post)

Something tells me it's already happening and we definitely know the name of one of these mysterious "true" sub player... who has managed to grace us with new renders from pt2 lately. :KEK:

Maybe the frog and the caged slave at the end of Chapter 7 are in that group as well :sneaky:.

I tried once again to expand the horizons of perception and decided through Sancho-gallery to watch the scene of the secret sub route (Alessandra + Alice + Kane)...OFC, I watched the scene to the end, partially rewinding the dialog, but throughout the scene I did not leave the feeling of deep disgust:sick:, and Alessandra I already mentally executed and quartered. :devilish: Good thing I had an antidote at hand, I rewatched the juicy Dom scene with Alessa, Celeste, KaneDom and cuckold Todd and immediately felt better...:KEK: Anyway, I realized once again that my perception of kinks stubbornly refuses to expand into femdom ...when it's directed at Kane and not at the secondary characters who we're not controlling in any way...So I tried, but I lost.¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't think we've discussed this here before, but not too long ago Miss Tess added a little “spoonful of tar to the honey barrel”. It's about the character traits of our lovely Angelica. Given that Tess has taken the possible romance with Angelica to a deeper level than originally planned, the possible consequences could, in theory, be far more significant than if Angelica had remained on the same level of “simple shallow affair with the staff”.

One can only hope that our red-haired Amazon doesn't try to play a double game and seek immediate gain by acting against KaneDom interests.

Schemer and surivor...she knows which side her bread is buttered on (on the dom path)...she knows we are her ticket upwards and to safety.

She is still only listed as a T2 romance though iirc yes? I've not heard anything further regarding promoting her more.

You say she's doomed if Kane is a sub?

I remember almost nothing about her in the last part of the K4 path, it's mandatory that I replay many parts before the update comes out :WeSmart:.

Oh no...as is shown in Ep8 Pt1, on the KaneSub path, Angelica does what she needs to do to survive and gain favor....including shooting people with Charlotte.... On that note, she will also actively be 'hunting' with Charlotte in the gameshow....

You're a better man than I, Stan, for even trying... I guess. The only woman who would ever dominate me (IRL or fantasy) would have to be a necromancer. I really hope you are correct about Angelica. I don't mind that she plays her cards close to her chest but, I'm hoping that she can be loyal when that loyalty goes both ways. I was quite taken with her looks, personality and intelligence almost immediately in the story. She has quickly moved up to my #2 girl overall and, if circumstances were different or changed, I could see her challenging Dominique for #1. But, hey, that's just me and I freely admit I have a thing for feisty redheads...:p

I believe there will be a point/decision/choice/branch depending perhaps on faction you favor etc...where she may turn against you. Unlikely though....she a T2 romance option...

_________________
My only minor gripe...is I wish Tess (if she even knows) would confirm/clarify if you can have a T1 and T2 romance together. I have asked and was not met with an asnwer at the time (this was right as Part 1 released though so at that time she may not have thought about it too much).

At first I thought, "How strange is this fetish!" but now I realise that it means that he will only be ruled when he is dead and will return as a skeleton :devilish::ROFLMAO:.

Hmmm... I guess I have always assumed that as a given - at least on the Dom path. Kane is expected to indulge and is surrounded by women who are "given" to him to serve various roles. Raven is a good example. Others, like Pat, seem willing to hitch their destiny to his if he will have them. The dark haired intern (temporary mental block on her name) seems infatuated with him. None of the major LI's seem to care as long as they get what they are after... It seems that one of the expectations placed on Kane is that he spread his seed far and wide no matter the life path he chooses... Oh, the burden of responsibility... :rolleyes:

Perhaps all true yes....but we have to remember that none of the actual LI's are actually LI's yet. Tess been very clever to avoid any NTR in that regard...couple of ocassions early on with Olivia but mild at best.

How any of them (especially the actual sisters) will react when they actually do become 'your LI' remains to be seen...I can imagine more than a one not being terribly happy if you're out fucking all the pussy you can get (slaves exampt as that's part of their purpose)....but can you imagine Dominique being happy you're rogering Olivia and Jules behind her back???

We already know, confiormed, there will be no 'harem'....but we also do know that the 'other romances' on the DomPath will probably co-exist alongside the T1's (So Celeste with Alessa, Kitty with Olivia, Delilah with Jules etc). But yeah, Tess refused to answer whether a T2 'romance' could exist alongside a T1 (main romance path).

As I've said before, despite Tess saying no harem (and I understand her definition)....it still really is. As you say, you can have your T1, you have slaves, Pod4, Raven interested, you have Taylor and Mia (or Desdemona), Possibly Svetlana already if you hit K9 last Episode...sounding like the beginnings of a harem to me :ROFLMAO: :WeSmart:. The distinction I suppose, western harem definition with AVN players is that most likely only 'one of those' will actually 'love you'...the rest are just there to have fun with as you please.
