Why add this?
No, "oversight" is not a thing Tess does, but what she has done is put in stats whose purpose remain hidden until a later episode, and there's still some yet to be revealed, like the "Gambit" score has yet to affect anything, and the first possible point was all the way back in Ep 2.
yes, i not see "Completed" flag in the tag list - this means i must be wrons about "v0.7 Final" what i considered as a final of a project... oops haha =)
The game is far from complete. A total of 12 episodes are planned.
Wait... only 12? I think we are so far from the end. There have to be some time jumps for this to make better sense.
You can think of "dormant" variables as Chekhov's guns that are sure to go off at the right moment.
Of course, Sancho could be wrong too, but something tells me he's right. At least, there is logic in it, if we remember that for Kane the subway scene is nothing more than another deep test of personality and self-control, and the author of this test is Elena (she tells us that you don't have to go anywhere, but MC Dom can (and should) do things his way, but at the same time "not go crazy".
Well, that's what Tess wrote here. And given the fact that the game's story has been written a long time ago, I can hardly doubt her assessment. Yeah, I would have liked more episodes too, but what is, is.
It's pretty much already explained. In exchange for Alexander not chasing her, he had Callista adopt Olivia. Likely cuz he wanted at least one of his children to be influenced by her.
sorry it must be my overlook... and thanks you for explaining this thing.
Many VN's release a beta version first, then maybe some bug fixes version then a 'final' chapter version. Don't worry, this has a looonnng way to go yet.
I'm pretty sure (someone can and will correct me if I'm wrong) that princesseyes is a measure of Kane's favor with Olivia. Also, I think you have the edp and eds thing correct. (Elena Dom Points and Elena Sub Points) I think I remember getting them during the conversation with Elena and Katsumi in her quarters. (Again, correct me if I'm wrong - it's been a while) I don't remember which is which. i.e. edp = Elena dominates Kane or vice versa
I would say you are correct and spot on with those assumptions. However, they are for now assumptions but the princesseyes one I think is a pretty strong indicator of what exactly they do (even the official walkthrough pdf makes mention of how they are interpreted). I think those along with the sispoints will be key eventually...if going for that finish, we need to be as tight with Olivia as possible. sispoints is how we are as a unified team...p'eyes is how she sees us as a romantic interest. However, as we know, Olivia already knows we're not her brother and has already told us...she would pick us to save in the temple scene, so to me Olivia was already thinking about this possibility, given she obviously has far more information and knowledge than anyone thinks or believes...again, master actress playing her part).
Now that I think about it, really the only points that have garnered results [on the Dom path] are Good/Evil (though you can be Good on points, but make key decisions to unlock Evil content/tags), SisGood/Evil, Slave, [Karlsson]-meet, Cassandra (Olivia sections), Delilah, Chanel (potentially), Kane-Olivia relationship, and maybe Katsumi? So far none of the Karlssons', Elena's, Junko's, Kiyomi's, or Raven's points have yet to come into a check. Even Dom/Sub points don't seem to have an affect yet, rather individual choices and rank determine Dom/Sub playthroughs. It seems that the "opinion" points will come up towards the end, as there are already variables in the game that indicate there will be warring factions, and we'll need allies once the explosion comes (e.g. "piggy-ally=True/False", needing "Nurse=Alive" to keep all paths open).
Hmmm... the choices you make in the hot tub scene with Katsumi, Chanel, and Junko definitely have an impact on your relationship with Junko and getting a sponsorship with Dominique. Your relationship with Katsumi is also affected. Those are just the one's I remember.
Looks like in the coming updates we’ll need to choose who to side with factions and individual!… Veronica is confirmed to have a sub path sponsorship, along with Olivia (if you didn’t side with Juliette and or Dominique… and maybe we can side with the decocks in the future who knows hahaha
It's no oversight, I can all but assure you. Remember, the story is NOT complete. Patiently wait for Elena's imminent performance evaluation. At that time you will most certainly see those stats (both espts and edpts) utilized in conditionals. There's many of these variables that setup for future releases...that's the whole point of "decisions have consequences" as those decisions must be made prior to the consequence... you've made the decisions, now you must wait for the consequence. Make sense now? Regards.
I don't doubt that for a second. Especially after it was revealed that Kane is not Jacobs, but DeKoсk, and his living father (Cole DeKock), who is secretly collaborating with Dominique, is one of the influential founders of the Karlsson Group itself and a former friend of Alexander Karlsson. Also, the whole thing with Kane's unique blood (the bracelet planted on him), DeKoсk's family's interest in Kane throughout the game - none of this can be mere coincidence.
