I'm silly and the part where she kinda wanted it even if she's very glad I stopped her makes me feel bad. In a couple of ways. Maybe that's insecurities or something but I don't like to share even if it's porn and I'm making girls share me (boy am I glad they're not real people and I'm not hurting anyone >.>).

Anyway. It wouldn't be the end of the word, I'd just much rather have the girls to myself. In general, in most games. As for the time limit thing. The game says there's a limit of 2 months. Something about it seemed weird though, it says the game ends when the princess arrives... which would make seducing her kinda hard. So I don't know what to think if the limit is supposed to extend or once she's here there's not time limit beyond that.

Also, I have a tendancy to overthink things.
I have no insecurities about Evelyn because I know the main character can make her happy considering you find out that she was always saving her virginity for the main character. ;) No the time limit will not end the game. It's a time limit for getting all your powers and stats to their highest level so you can save the Princess by seducing her when she arrives.

I wasn't saying you have insecurities, I was talking about myself. And not just for Evelyn. Thanks for the clarification on what the time limit means. Appreciated.

Oh i see. Your own character flaws. I can understand that. You are very welcome about the clarification. I know Belle has yet to decide on the time limit for when the Princess shows up but i am sure it will be announced in the changelog so everyone knows.

Does anyone know how to get the 3rd 'multiple girls' scene unlocked ? The hint is "Practice makes perfect. At least thats what you tell the Fairy Queen at her court" but can't get any new content with her - is it available yet or am I missing something ?

Hopefully it is close to at least 3 months (90 days). 60 days would make it pretty hard to reach all the content without knowing exactly what to do and when to do it. It would still be possible (judging from the current content) but I think 90 days would be more in line with the majority of players.

It's not supposed to be easy to get "all" the content (as much as you can get in one playthrough anyway). It's just meant to be possible. This game is designed around the concept of NG+, where getting everything becomes much easier. Someone playing through this game only once will miss content no matter if he's following a walkthrough or not. This is by design, and it is part of the game's story. It will make sense, but I can't tell you why at this point in time. Suffice to say, nobody needs to stress out over the time limit. It won't be a problem in the final game.

Aside from that, everything is going to get a balance pass when all the content is in place. At some point, probably once the story is finished, but perhaps even at the beginning of the endgame, I will invalidate all saves and rebalance the entire game. This is going to cause havoc with walkthroughs but will also be the final time that is going to happen in any significant way, so it's not all bad. The time needed to accomplish various tasks in the story will likely be adjusted as part of this process, which means some things might take fewer actions while others might take more. The former is more likely than the latter. In particular, the requirements for reaching various parts of the story, in terms of abilities, will likely be heavily modified.

While reports about how long it takes to get through the game right now are useful as I prepare for this balance pass, those same reports shouldn't be used as an exact guide to how long it will actually take to get through the final game.

Personally, I can't say I have ever been a fan of hard coded time limits, even when it does make sense in the story. You have a hard time balancing what various players want with the others, some want to speed through the main story and ignore side stuff, others like to explore every nook and cranny. Some of this could be alleviated by making the game not end after the ending, so you can still run around and do things after the main story is over. The way a lot of RPGs do it is to have some event/quest be the trigger rather than a hard coded # of days.

Oh well, not trying to tell you how to do it, just thinking out loud really.

Funny that you say that because the inevitable time limit is the part of the game that I am most worried about. Time limits have never gone over well in any game AFAIK. They're always the most hated part of the game and just pushes players to use a walkthrough. You should consider that a large majority of the playerbase will not be considering NG+ and will only use their first playthrough as the experience. And that might skew things a bit.

Of course that is all just talk about time limits in other games. How you approach this is yet to be seen. But the walkthrough part is all but guaranteed. Time limits will push 8/10 players to just follow a walkthrough.

To help with the time limit, maybe put a "hint" system in the game? I know about the clue/secret hints, but a more in-depth hint system that more or less serves as an in game WT. A quest log might be a better thing to call it. Can have a "quest log/guide" for each character, and the main-quest(s).

Hello!
I play I play and got stuck, in short.
As I look through the passage, Primula should tell about the record of parents!
How do you get into this conversation with Primrose?
And I can’t reveal the last secret of Evelyn ....

Isn’t that function pretty much filled by Belle?
