Someone had responded to me several pages back asking how much was going to be done and I got a "all the dialogue" response. I did a quick ctrl+f on the subscribestar page for voice and also saw this for some further detail

So...Expect a LOT of work to go into it beyond just grunts. I'm sure the voice actress they'll get will be better than the male grunt voice artist but the time that it sounds like this is going to add to development is insane.. I really hope people vote in favor of releasing without it..With this much work being needed, it feels like there's so much that could go wrong. Over 2000 voice files, from one voice actress, with editing/producing time as well as working them into the game and bug checking all of that..
I think I like the voice I have for her in my head more than I would whoever they pick at this point too..
well sht
thats gonna take forever
yea, game first then

I voted prefer them to release the game with voice because I think the game would sell better that way. I'm not a marketing expert by any mean but it just my guess.

I don't think you need to worry about Karryn's Japanese voice actress being anything that low quality. Looking up the seiyuu/voice actress name in that blogpost I posted above here's her list of roles:
Aww...

Playing the game all these years, I've always heard in my head for Karryn. Thought she would be perfect as a strict warden that gradually weans off into being a slut.

Miki Honda's resume seems like she's done a whole lot of kawaii style high pitched voice that's common in Japan. Looking through her samples, even as a 'Yasashii Oneesan' archetype, she still has that kawaii tone, while I have always thought that Karryn's would be a tad lower(although she might crank up higher notes while in heat).

That's the bane of play-testing a game for so long without a voice; people might start assigning their own expectations of what a character sounds like, even against the creator's original intentions.

I'm optimistic but it sounding like they haven't even started recording at all yet does nag at me a bit.. But this definitely isn't the actresses first gig like this, so for her part I'm sure she's experienced and professional enough to know how to handle the work in a timely manner. It's not like she's an amateur doing it for free with only a promise.
It is the first time Rem has used full voice lines though I think isn't it? Island Saga had voice acting but I think he only published the game, not developed it. Melty's Quest only had moans if I remember correctly.. I hope editing and adding all the lines in and bug checking (hopefully before releasing it and needing multiple hotfixes) doesn't surprise him with a lot of problems.. Fingers crossed, regardless of how the poll turns out!

It's definitely a marketing bonus, no doubt about that. It's not completely uncommon but still impressive for a doujin eroge to have the heroines content fully voiced, and for a game that will have a lot of variations going on based on slut level. I'm really curious how much this voice acting commission from Miki Honda actually costs and will add to the budget they'd be looking to make back. She's definitely professional with a good résumé behind her.
At the same time with 18,000 followers on Ci-en and the Discord having nearly 30k people, and the amount of hype and discussion this game has going on in H-game circles, I don't know how much more help they need moving copies! I don't think they release their SubscribeStar numbers like some Patreon projects show but I think by most eroge metrics they're on track for doing very well. Though I say this knowing a good portion of any of those numbers I mentioned will likely be pirates as well.. I know where I am, haha.

Hey good choice! She did . That's close to what I heard in my head as well, only more stoic than Milli.
In that Soundcloud HappyGoomba linked in the last page, that blonde character towards the bottom definitely gets in the deeper range I'd like for Karryn for a second or two so I think Miki Honda can definitely hit it. might be the closest example on her website which feels the same in that if she can just go a deeper like when she starts some syllables I think she'd do great. I just hope Rem directs her that way... Maybe there's something more middle of the road too - sort of like a Reika from the original Bible Black series perhaps?
I agree entirely with you though that her average in her portfolio on her website and that Soundcloud lean more towards a higher pitched, preppy character archetype, but I hear hints of her at least being able to hit the voice I would like.

110% this.
I wish I waited to play until the game was completely done.

Scaffold (FR échafaud; DE Schafott; NL Schavot; PL szafot) is a raised platform used for public executions, so even the spectators in the last rows can have a clear, unobstructed view of beheadings or hangings.

'to be sent to the scaffold' - to be publicly executed.

Stocks and pillories are often confused because they look similar. The difference is that stocks are used to restrain feet, while pillory restrains the neck and upper limbs. This results in different positions being forced upon the offender, the pilloried person standing upright, with their back sometimes bent. Thus, pillories were often used as public whipping posts.
i work in construction,and use scaffold alot, but never for executions.
from cambridge english dictionary " a structure for workers to stand on when they want to reach high parts of a building "

i think it must be a translation or time issue. i do see where long ago scaffold was used for execution, but that just seems like a raised platform so the crowd can see the execution better. in the current day i don't see how this applies though. besides as far as i know nobody dies in this game.
also i have seen many pics of stocks, as well as in person, and the stocks only bins the head and hands, not feet. i have seen the ones that bind just the feet too. not saying you are wrong and i am right, we are just seeing this differently. so no further argument from me.
enjoy your day!

The sample you linked to was alright. The 'stoic' feeling isn't quite there, but eh.

Which Bible Black version of Reika are we talking about here? If we're talking the adult Reika in the first one, then you and I have the same taste. Then again, that one's a bit deeper than the typical Japanese commonly likes(I am always of the opinion that the Japanese makes games to cater to the Japanese first).

This is going to be a weird question, but is there/will there be an option to change the size of Karryn's HUGE fucking honkers? I don't mind tiddy, but Melty did not have mammary mountains that massive, and it borderlines on inflation fetish for me. I don't want the hot girl I'm playing as to have titties so huge that they are 55% of her bodily structure.
Nope.

Whatever they plan to do I think the final product will be a good game in the end. I'm also excited to see what they work on next. I wonder if they will go back to something simple like Meltys Quest, or something like Karryn's Prison again, or something completely different on a different engine.

Question: How do I use the save files in the pages back ? I put them in the save folder but nothing happened.

Is it possible to take off the top of the receptionist's clothes? I managed to take the skirt off by editing, but the top remains.

I had deleted every instance of 1603 and 1608 from enemies.json after updating version, but footjobs and handjobs keep showing up. Handjobs are frustrating because they're absolutely meh, and foot stuff is so gross to me as to be an immediate alt+f4 upon seeing. How do I delete foot stuff from the game entirely so I can play again?
