VN Ren'Py Abandoned Kingdom of Deception [v0.14.2.2] [Hreinn Games]

[Deleted member 584847]

The new update has the same issues you already mentioned. Not much new content in the latest update, only took me around 30 minutes to shoot through it. The repeatable scenes were nice in the sense that it was additional content that could be done multiple times, but if you progress too far in the quest it seems like you lock yourself out of it. The artwork for the repeatable scenes has a lower quality than the normal artwork we get for full scenes. Not a huge issue for me assuming they were able to pump out a decent level of content to go with the lower quality artwork, but having finished all of the quests, I'm essentially back where I was just before the update launched. No one to talk to and nothing to do. If you have a more specific question I'm sure we could answer it.

Edit: Oh, and as far as non-human scenes there are some new scenes with Bris , Kia and the Tentacle Monster, all of them are short though. I feel like they are setting up Bris to have some repeatable scenes in the next update, but who knows.

thanks for the info
Ive tried to play it, luckily i didnt deleted my saves so i was able to continue.
like... Its cool that they made an update focused on kia/maply (Bris, but I dont care much about her) but... damn, two really short quests for max 30 minutes after 4 months of waiting? and like you said, 30 minutes top and we're back where we were, no one to talk to... yea, thats disappointing.

what happened to the artwork???

 

[grodom]

For the Tekrok scenes and the Shaman scenes, I rested in the tent and got the quest upon waking up. If it isn't working try and do the prison quest and the tentacle monster quest first. I don't remember the order I got the quests. For the prison one, you should get a note delivered when waking up, and the tentacle monster you just need to visit Kia I think.

well i am trying talk with tentacle monster but it says Sabia trying but its end up like previous attempts. Is it right?

After having finished the Tentacle Monster quest, when trying to visit again I get: "Sabia tried conversing with the creature again. It went about as well as the previous attempt."

I'm guessing this is the end of this questline. I don't know if you saw the stuff with Bris in this questline before this dialogue or not, but this was the end for me.

Yeah, I wish they had at least left the repeatable scenes in or at least a way to access them organically in the game. It feels like a bit of a let down to already be done with the content and not being able to do anything without rolling back a save or using the gallery.

Oh, and don't be hating on my catgirl waifu. Can't wait for her to start really blackmailing Sabia.

Could someone please share their Full Submission and Tekrok alliance save to me, as close to the new release as possible if you can.. i recently reformatted my PC and forgot to backup the Renpy Save directory... Dont want to replay from start.

After one fap session behind me I can say this:

This whole "update" or more like downgrade feels like rushed homework.
You know when you were/are doing your homework that you were supposed to do over a few days in the last few hours because you've school tomorrow and you really didn't feel like doing it earlier.
While playing not even the whole update but a part of it I've seen more bugs than I did playing from first version to 0.9.
For example when I wanted to free the elf slave from orcs.
When bug pooped up I couldn't even click "ignore" to proceed like in the case of all the other bugs I've encountered.
Like the outcome I've chosen was not even made by the devs yet.
Is this shit literally unfinished?

Now still the greatest disappointment was the art.
Half a year for that bullshit?
Why would you willingly and purposely disfigure your own game like that?
So Idk you could say "Hey, there're few more scenes this time (though they're garbage btw)!"?
However it seems that that disaster was "planned":

New 'simple-CGs'. In an effort to continue expanding and adding more sexual content where we can, we decided to see what else we can offer with this. We decided to use a simpler style with only a few variants to introduce short scenes when possible into the game. You'll find most of these in the Prison quest, but we do have a bad end variant in .10. These are currently a proof of concept for simple repetitive scenes that can involve different members of the cast (Neve, Maply, etc), and will be 4-5 layers (like these ones.) We would love to have your opinion regarding these.

At least I hope that the rest of the scenes which I haven't seen yet are better than that.

The bugged scene with the elf was the only major bug I found, but it was disappointing to see it in the first place. Given that I shot through the content in 30 minutes, I'm sure the dev could have done it in 5 given they don't need to keep re-reading the dialogue. I don't understand how such a glaring error got left in given the tiny amount of new content but I'm also not a game dev so maybe I'm just being unrealistic.

I happened to go with that route myself so here you go:

You must be registered to see the links

It's a save just after finished 0.9.3.
I think it's finished at least...
I can't guarantee that I didn't mess up shit playing on that save so far because I've cheated some to speed up or/and eliminate the grind and I was using mods etc. but it should be fine enough.

 

[Deleted member 914647]

how do i active the new ornshak ritual and tekrok new scene and with helping the orc prisoner?

After the Kia and tentacle I was stuck what to do, but you need to go to the tents and speak to Bris. After that, one sleep and you will get the new Ornshakar scene.

 

[Akitoo97]

Can someone port the new update to Android?

 

[Deleted member 914647]

I played 5 hours on this update. Reading and enjoying every word and every image. (otherwise whats the point waiting half a year for this update just to scroll through?)
So it seems there is no returning to the tents with this update.
and another great thing is there was no need to go to waste time on the human towns and remain on the Orc land.
It could have been more images with the usual artwork and more content yes I agree. I could play on and on for days. But the Ornshakar ritual was worth everything at the end.

I see... I didnt sided much with any of the captains, wonder if I can get the quest. Ive seen the conversation with lynn and the commander of the village but that was it.

As much as I like to rag on the game sometimes, I still enjoy it. I have no idea how you wrung 5 hours out of it though. I had to restart from a couple saves back and I still got through in under an hour. I guess I just read too quick.

The new Ornshakar scene was nice, and I'm ready for the content they are setting up in the relief tents!

Hmmm... Maybe go and see the captain's and check if any of them want to send you somewhere. Or maybe Jadk, I've never done a playthough not siding with Tekrok...

Oh looks like I missed some scenes with my captains orcs. I brought them alcohol and food but then I did not get any more scenes just the first one where Sabia is standing between them. Do you know what needs to be done to activate the other scenes?

I haven't played the game since like 0.3. Have the devs implemented any of their promises yet or is the story still stuck at the orc camp?
