Nodoka is a sociopath and the one character in the game I truly hate (Otoha is just blah, and I really don't like Maya, but I don't hate her). I don't think she is hot, either in her crazy or sane form, and I regret almost every moment she is on the screen.

I understand her role in the game - I wish there was a different character in that role.
I think I would have agreed early on but watching her love for Sensei crack over time was so fucking cute.
The rooftop after visiting Niki was so heartwarming to me.

And yeah it's kinda bonkers how well written this game is, you compare to the other games on this site and it's just not even fucking close.
This is actually a huge pain point for me because I can't stand the majority of the higher rated games on the Latest Updates page. Somehow they'll have 4.5/5 and the dialogue is just awful.

I guess some people are here just to tug one out to default animations. I need to be wined and dined, now, apparently. Can't get off until I'm quizzed about the 12 different ways to brew coffee, and these games can hardly spell, use proper punctuation, or god forbid, have characters speak like an actual person might.

The review system leaves a lot to be desired. The mods try to enforce some standards but nothing seems to stop the dunces that write a two sentence review that tells you nothing, praises everything and slaps a 5/5 on a 0.1 release, sycophants just trying to boost their latest fap material 99% of the time. I pretty much never do more than skim a review unless it's a few paragraphs and most of the time i i'll only do more than skim if the review is a 3/5 cause at least you know then that the reviewer has put some thought into it.

LiL kinda spoils you a lot with pretty much no egregious mistakes, almost no typos, and even the "filler" content being good enough, but I have read chinese web novels, I can and will enjoy stuff even if it's on a "get a feeling so complicated" level. You understimate the amount of media with bad translations but enough redeeming qualities to look past the poetry. That said, tbh, I've only managed to find three of the LiL lookalikes interesting enough to invest more than an hour in them.

You need to either restart the game, cheat using DRM or get a working save file from someone else (me)
What to do if inserting a save and trying to load it crashes the game?
Is it a progress mod (I'm using it) thing or it's an Old RenPy engine thing (I'm using New RenPy version)?
If I'm deleting the progress mod folder, game is crashing in main menu.

I never understood the people that just want to play games for straight default renpy animation sex.

I get off so much by the scenarios and setups and the buildup that it almost ruins normal porn.

Good writing is very important, make sure to get yourself a secret writer/editor that corrects all mistakes if you're gonna make a game.

There's not necessarily anything wrong with your game, it's just that the save file itself might be too old or a few other things.

In your case, the only reason why the save file I sent cannot work for you is if you haven't unlocked the newest happy event yet. You need to get to the end of the latest version.

Couldn't agree more, I've totally dropped games due to the writing recently, so many of them are just fucking awful.

It's unlocked and should be available, I fully finished the reset and got the message that Alexis is unlocked, so that's not the case.

You mean the mall.
Do you remember the mall event? well now there's a new happy event unlocked for that and you need to backtrack to get it, that's why people are asking for old save files (but most of them don't work)
You need to either restart the game, cheat using DRM or get a working save file from someone else (me)
oh thank I had no idea
can u explain a little ? Im at the end of chapter 2. so will this event will trigger for me normally?
or u first need to play until chapter 5 than comeback?

Is playtime stored per save or in the persistent save? I feel like my time is a bit smaller than it should be. After realizing I missed Toys I "replayed" (held down control) the game from the one save I could, and I think this is reflected in my playtime.
Per save, like if you start a new one the time displayed would be 0 so if you select an old save it would show you how much time you played until that save was made.

You need to first play till the end of the current update because in one of the last events the game tells you that its unlocked (it says something like "Alexis" is free or something like that)

Technically it's a little before the happy event of 0.45, I think it's post Maya rape specifically. If someone posted a save past the ending of Sensei Quest, they could turn on unseen dialogue skip and let the game play for 3 minutes or so and be ready for Alexis.

I may be wrong but iirc you unlock it at the puzzle at the swimming pool but also i dont remember if we had to progress that much to reach it. Also idk either if there is something else after that

Sorry for a post on just this, but that was fucking awesome. Well done.

Edit: In response to Crusty and Gus, lately I have tried and deleted numerous games due to the writing being atrocious. Annie recently talked about a certain fantasy game, I tried it and was so frustrated on how bad the writing was I could not keep going even with the pretty purple haired girl.

Today I started a third replay of TFS in the last month since I love that story so much and still need something happy after the last year of LiL updates.

I just played through the fiery scion recently and it was an adorable journey, really lighthearted fun. Also the writing has so many funny quirks, like him distributing jewelry like candy lol

Also, I'd like to take the moment to advertise that I too will be replaying LiL during December. I'll make a post about it soon, but the general idea is to divide the four chapters between the 4/5 weeks of the month and discuss my findings through posts about it each week. So if anyone was waiting for an incentive to replay as well, this might be it, as I'll be discussing my findings all throughout December.
