Sierra's writing is literally nothing special, I genuinely don't understand the endless praise it gets in this thread. Her apparently stellar writing wasn't helping much while this game went downhill over the past year. Obviously there's no pleasing everyone but I know that myself and a good amount of people are happy about the direction the game is going in now and if the next update continues in this direction I'd be more than happy to become a patron for this game again.

They said in their post that they still want to focus on the story first and foremost and don't plan on overstaying the tent content, but they're also going to listen to what the majority of their fans want. Given this reception that the last couple of updates received, this way of going forward is the most logical one.

Compared to the writing in majority of the H games it really is special. Granted, that is setting the bar rather low, but that's how it is with writing in H games... quite a few actually make be feel dumber after reading the text.

As for game going downhill... how did it went downhill? Sure, having only three releases in calendar year hurt a lot, but that have nothing to do with quality of writing or story (which was fine till 0.5). I can give you writing in 0.6 but by that point Sierra more or less lost interest in KoD. Why she lost interest is another issue. Personally, I'm not really satisfied with last two updates (0.6 and 0.7) and if they continue in this direction... well, I stopped being their Patreon quite some time due to lack of releases. So far, I haven't seen anything that would make me want to pledge again.

And they are "overstaying the tent content"... adding slave trainer and/or tent manager instead of progressing the story is exactly that.

I need help, I cant do the new quests since the update, I got the walkthrough and even the first step doesnt work "Talk to Maply" if I do this nothing happens and no new options to talk with her about are able to chose. I also looked threw the walkthourhg if I have any missions left but I dont, only some options I couldnt do because of my previous choses. I also talked to every person I can find and talked about everything, nothing new. What did I wrong, what can I do? Someone maybe just got saves data for me to start from thew new version?

It was decided that a mandatory rape scene at the start wasn't right for the tone of the game they wanted. The CGs have been re-used for the new bandit bad end (as well as some new variants with humans and a minotaur). The old scenes are actually still in the game if you want to see them though, use the console commands:

"jump introsceneA" (Sabia gets gangraped by multiple orcs before Lutvrog shows up)
"jump introsceneB" (Sabia gets raped by only one orc before Lutvrog shows up)
"jump introsceneC" (Sabia duels Lutvrog and gets gangraped by his orcs afterward)



Oh yeah, that's a bug that should have been caught. Looking through the code, the problem seems to be that you're required to have completed the maply hellhound quest to proceed to phase 3, but if you enslaved the catgirls maply will refuse to talk to you and start the quest. As a temporary fix to proceed, use the command "maply_hellhound_quest = 11" then rest. If you meet all the other requirements (do all the available raiding, train your soldiers, do the lakelord and tentacle quests), you should proceed to the new content.

Oh, and I meant to post this a while ago but forgot, if you ran into the furnishings bug, use "Inventory.add_item(Tentfurnishings)" to proceed.

This one is like a graphic adventure, the game focus more on your decisions and their consequences than Noxian Nights, the art is better in this one in my opinion, even if it's the same artist (I think it is). Pretty sure you will enjoy this too.

It's hard to compare this game to NN. Up until now it's been clear that this one was meant to be more serious and plot centered, not a corruption game. This has led many to be dissatisfied because they expected a corruption game, despite this never being one.
Now the writer, Sierra, has parted ways with the painter, Nomo, and it's the latter whom will continue to develop the game, aided by another writer.
Which direction will the game take is thus unknown at the moment.
My personal opinion is that the game has been good up until now (actually I'm behind with releases, so take this with a grain of salt) and I think that the most controversial releases were probably due to the internal problems of the devs, so I expect new ones to stabilize, albeit probably with a new direction in mind.

Go into the ''game'' folder, open the ''options.rpy'' file in notepad and change config.developer from False to True. Then just press Shift+O in the game.

That's for a previous version of the game and is no longer valid. It now works like every other renpy game. Use unren already instead of asking this question over and over.

To be fair, the initial release of the game did seem to be going that way: Mandatory rape scene at the start, main character sells blowjobs to survive. You can avoid working in the relief tents, but the game pushes you pretty hard in that direction and it's much, much harder to do well at the first phase of the game if you don't since it's timed. I didn't even realize the relief tents were optional until after several playthroughs when I tried it just to see what would happen. So one could be forgiven for having distorted expectations from that.

The main thing that made me enjoy NN so much was the characters and the interactions the main characters had with each other and others in the world, you said this seems more serious and plot centred than NN which leads me to believe the character's writing is on par or better than NN, downloading this one right now!

Great game, still Noxian Nights was much more fun.

There are many stupid games in RPGM that should be made in Renpy instead, but this one is actualy one of the few oposite once, that would benefit from RPG Maker.

1.Noxian Nights had realy engaging RPG elements, here fighting is weird mess u just click through.

I also miss a lot having an actual party with you - and watching them develop.

2. And for this one supposedly beeing story based, I still liked the story in Noxian Nights more ! I apreciate it is not as goofy and a bit more mature story this time, but the story flow is kind of week here.

3.Game suffers from too many possibilities problem, You can be pro freedom / slavery, submissive / neutral / dominant, ally with Bad Orc / Good Orc / Neutral Orc / Yourself.
That is 24 combinations !

And there are many more choices that realy change a lot too. Some may say it is good - but it just watters down the main story - period.

4. I would suggest they should wrap up the Orc Camp side of the story, and continue the game in Kingdom of Deception 2 in diffrent format.
Maybe Songoku Rance strategy like format ?

5. And I realy wished there was a real party like in NN in here.
Characters for this are in the game - but they come and go. you dont lead them like in NN.

6. Another thing this game lacks in Lust meters, depravity or something.
You can eighter be nice to people or block your relationships with them compleatly.

Like I did with Maple and Almy for enslaving Catgirls. There should be an option to break them with pleasure and depravity to love beeing your slaves. And not block yuo from further interactions with them !

7. Also - we need Repeatable scenes ! My Sabia didnt fuck any Orc for months now, just becouse there are no repeatable scenes !

8. WE WANT MOAR KINK
Why isnt Hellhound sex scene in the game ? - It is one of the best looking and writen scenes !

We need more sex with monters and animals !

9. We need to be able to corrupt every character in the game !

I want to make Vehlis a cumdumpster for entire Tribe and local wildlife !
I want Orc to be sex frenzied and attack all neighbour lands raping everyone !

Well we might still get there eventualy.
It is still an awesome game nonetheless
