While this is true, I still felt a bit disappointed getting cockblocked so many different times this update. I don't blast rope to this game but that doesn't mean I can't want to see Rin, Touka, Uta, Yumi, Rika, or Tsuneyo get it either
Oh yeah I wanna see milestones, but I believe that person would have been satisfied with new dorm sex scenes or something. The only thing of that kind that I want right now is invite over Makoto sex, because damn does she need some sex that doesn't feel like it has an asterisk over it.

Almost want Times New Roman to win just to make people have to play an entire reset puzzle again for all the dialogue.

If he actually gave us enough of an explanation about what Times New Roman actually was I'd prefer that to win, but I doubt he will yet.

Otherwise it's gotta be Paper City or White Oak Doors right?

Well that's more information than I knew about. Is there a bigger post about it? Would like to know if it's the game searching for those files, or the files have some tag that signals the DRM to do a check. And what exactly the DRM checks against to see if it's a legitimate copy, like is every one of those images uniquely generated at purchase and locked to some windows account or something.

If it's the files containing a tag, that could mean any safe copies downloaded would remain safe.
Short answer: the DRM is always triggered by the code in gui.rpy when you launch the game, but doesn't do anything even with care packages installed as long as they've been cleaned of unique IDs (like the ones in the OP). But you never know what the next DRM will look like so it's a bad idea to apply new updates to a game installation that contains pirated subscriber-only content.

Wait did that actually happened fr? I know I'm super behind on the thread my bad
I think it depends on whether you believe certain events are real. Like Maya being trapped in the replica of Heaven, Futaba not being our Futaba any longer, a Shota dying, and Makoto not being grated cheese.

Is anyone willing to provide a video of the Alexisthymia event in full? As well as the Lungrot related Ayane profile picture? I want to see what it is but I REALLY do not want to jeopardize my saves. Sel is a prick who loves to torment his players with stupid flags and other bullshit. And knowing this puts a perma flag on your save state after seeing the happy event worries me greatly.

So anyone that has seen it and has the flag, and wants to drop a full vid of the event to view + a pic of the Ayane related Profile Picture would be greatly appreciated!

My question is, who was the narrator in that event?
Maybe it's our old pal, you never know after the confusion fest that was this update, then again I might be just confused because of the fact I no longer can remember what happens past more than one update. I still really need to do a replay, all just to forget everything again but hey, that's fun.

I've been wondering but are you supposed to reapply the gui.rpy every update or have I been wasting time
Yeah, that's my understanding—if you want to keep the DRM'd material in-game, you need to re-add the "clean" gui.rpy every time.

I just have a separate folder with an old version of the game (0.32, I think?) with the care packages. Don't feel like I'm going to keep it, honestly—I haven't revisited it in over a year.

Or block the lil.exe in your firewall. Though, don't know Ren'py's/Pythons capabilities, so he could try to call a different exe.
Just that naturally, as far as i know, windows can't FW block entire directories, so you'd have to search lil dir for all possible exe's, or get a 3rd party prog capable of doing so.

Gotta say i wonder if he has the drm armed still. As you also think, Sel/the guy who dev'ed it very lilkely does this by IP's (No unique user ID's/authorisations are involed).
- Is IP storage even legal in the US?
- Might this be the reasons some legit users got their saves deleted? (Playing on devices with diffrent WAN IP's?)
