You’ll unlock a girl’s pajamas outfit in the menu as soon as you pat them to orgasm and unavoidably break your left click button. Never saw anyone praising it though; this shit is asinine with a barely worthwhile result.

In this, as in many things, URM is your friend. :)

Regardless of anyones's opinions on NTR and what applies to it or not, the moment you put a NTR flag on this game we will not only have the "what are the care packages for" and "are there animations in this game" nomad small tribes, now there will be a HORDE asking "what do you mean with ntr? Is avoidable?" the whole fucking time, there won't be a escape from it.

For that alone, please don't EVER do that.

1. I really don't want to fan the NTR debate flames. They don't need it.

2. On another subject—what Ami knows or doesn't— The awkwardness and shyness seem too genuine, and not aimed at turning on Akira. Which in my mind lends creedence to the idea that in later scenes Ami is possessed by Sekai or by some other entity—that that's who torture rapes Maya, for example.

Am I missing something?

1. Yeah, I'm really tired of having to play advocate for something which I don't give a damn about. The scene didn't bother me at all, and yet here I am still defending their point out of concern for the people that said that they were ignored by the thread regulars when voicing their discontent. My own opinion (insofar as how I see the narrative) mirrors yours. If there is still something to say on the matter, I'll leave it to the people that actually care about it from now on.

2. My current perspective, as I'm nearing the end of chapter 1, is that Ami knows things at times. I think there may be some value to her "nightvision" powers theory, and that she receives fragmented information (sort of like Nodoka) through either dreams or hallucinations. Therefore, even the things she does know would have been known through a state of "dreaming", which would make her have doubts about it even then, making her question herself.

Mind you, so far, I've identified only two events which she becomes "possessed", the first one being during her first fingered event (she has NAO eyes), and the second when her face becomes distorted after Akira leaving her dorm (last chapter 1 Ami event). So the current theory might continue to change as that new variable comes in.

actually, I'm curious about something... and I'm not entirely sure if I actually want an answer because it might actually be relevant but it seems that... in chapter 1 "God" was like "God" and then replaced with "god" but now... it's the opposite? or maybe it varied in chapter 1 and I'm stupid?

Hiya, nice to meet everyone. I'm mid 4.1(?) and while I dug through and found some of the old discussions when this was fresh for everyone, I feel compelled to ask...

For people that played this back then, were USER3 and USER4 always recognized by the second reset?

Also, smooth, Selebus.

And, with that, chapter 1 is finally done. It is always underwhelming how much Akira does not ask Maya on relevant topics during the reset sequence.

I'd complain about how useless and lazy Akira is as the protagonist of a mystery, but this is also a story where we spent years building up the revelation that one of the characters had the bright idea of taking notes.

Day 4 of playing. Character count: 7129(these are probably meaningless but you know roughly how much you are about to read and it will help me calculate the final score int he future). Surprisingly I didn't get to trigger yesterdays happy event.

And a slightly updated (as scuff as always) tierlist. I should probably be following a traditional S-F tier list instead but that's plans for when I meet more girls.

I'm probably gonna play the next update but depending on how much content is there (Which does look like a fair bit) That's when I'll have a better idea if I want to wait or just play it monthly with everyone, there are some games on here I play every update cause it gives enough content for me to enjoy and others I leave for 3 or 4 updates to cook and fill my appetite and avoid cliffhangers.
Click to expand...
You'll never avoid cliffhangers but I'd suggest playing the coming update, and then taking the break for the few months.

Next month's update is basically filler, and I'm sure nothing big is going to happen until the next maya / ami updates, and even then they'll probably not be that expository (I suspect that I won't get the answers I want about maya this update and I'd have to wait that long for them instead)

although...

Maybe there will be enough Maya for me to get my answer. I thought she was just gonna cameo in that one pyjamas scene. Might also get to see if Yasu has reconnected or not.

Does headpats do anything more than one line after 10 headpats. I thought it was a few funny lines, but seeing everyone praises it im not sure.
Click to expand...
Every headpat has a 500 pat reward. It's debatable whether it's worth it but if you're a completionist get clicking on skip and just read the unseen text.

Antosha said:
But because there's no real consensus about what that flag actually signifies, I'm not sure who it would help.
Click to expand...
Until we get a NTR scene that people aren't debating whether it's NTR or not, avoid the tag. You'll just usher in a new load of people questioning the ntr, and then complaining that NTR isn't in the game. And if the day an actual NTR scene is in the game, get ready to explain that it happens in one scene and this isn't a NTR game.

Why is it that I dislike children irl but not in games?
Click to expand...
Generally because writers don't write realistic children. If they aren't suffering from trauma they live too in the moment to wring a good story out of them. Narrations of Chinami show a more realistic child than Chinami's dialogue itself, and that's ignoring the knowledge she has which should be more adult only (and I'm talking more than sex here)

VoidExile said:
That's a lot of hexdecimals... I translated it but it comes out with some gibberish. The part at the end did say something about jerking off. Also it kinda seemed irish or something. I'm sure there is a proper translation of whatever plays in "ode to a marsh warbler".

From the wiki

  • This event, added in the Chapter 1 Revamp, introduces the motif of birds and, specifically, the Marsh Warbler much earlier.
  • In the background of this event, the song 'warblewarblewarble' plays on loop. Overlaid on the music is a series of text-to-speech messages. They are, in order:
    • "This is only the beginning. The days that have yet to come will wash over you, like a partially detached showerhead, spewing the sea out of itself in an effort to make you clean. But you will never be clean. There are simply some things that become soiled beyond recognition. This is only the beginning. Greetings, you who are highly favored. The world is your clam's tongue. And you will change those who need it most. You must. This is only the beginning. And I will watch you every step of the way."
    • "Himawari-hatake, sore wa anata ni hanashikakemasu. Kiite kudasai. Semi no nakigoe, kaze ga nakimasu. Makasete, watashi ga anata wo tasukemasu. Anata no me ga daisuki. Anata no me ga daisuki. Anata no me ga daisuki. Anata no me ga daisuki. Anata no me ga daisuki. Anata no me ga daisuki."
      • "The sunflower field: it speaks to you. Listen: the cries of cicadas, the wind sings them. Leave it to me, I'll save you. I love your eyes. I love your eyes. I love your eyes. I love your eyes. I love your eyes. I love your eyes."

Well, the scenes aren't animated. Or at least this one wasn't. I guess that makes sense for a not porn game. Guess the animated tag is reserved for the static transitions.
Also I think the game is going for the mental sex over the visual kind, which would make sense for a well written story based game.
Click to expand...
The only animated scenes in the game are the ones you'd watch repeatedly, so only the invite / show up sex scenes. If you look too closely you'd see Sel isn't a disney animator so it's for the best.

Every now and then though I'd think it'd be fun to try making a animation revamp but that's a rabbit hole I should avoid if ever there was one.

You're right about that mental sex comment, and if I was ever going to try an overhaul I think I'd have to start with one you're months away from seeing. the big chapter finale
