Ren'Py Completed Long Live the Princess [v1.0.1] [Belle]

[jamdan]

Oh good lord, the eyes. The crone is the princess, isn't she?

that or the crone is the (former) queen and the princess is her daughter.

The King is dead. His daughter, Princess Selena, is set to take the crown. But something is wrong. Murder, backstabbing, and visions of extinction threaten to bring ruin to all that is good. And at the heart of it all is a tale of personal tragedy and lost love.

- Crone (aka Queen) killed the king, for revenge perhaps or greed or something like that.
- Crone wants the crown now that the king is dead (this could also be why she killed the king)
- Crone didn't get that and got banished somehow.
- Crone wants to stop Princess (aka Daughter) from being crowned she wanted that and if she cant have it no one can.
- Bring the extinction to do that

In a way, the Fairy Queen is the "good" one and the Crone is "evil". The FQ is trying to stop the end of the world, and whether we know it or not the Crone is trying to make it happen.


Also, its interesting that in the OP it states "someone is watching you closely".

You know who watches MC closer than anyone else? Yep, Belle. Following MC around watching literally his every move, she is also from the crone, sent to spy on MC. But obviously Belle has become quite fond on MC, so she'll end up backstabbing the crone....probably.

so far your gues is as good as any other made in this thread... but from Belle (the Dev) owns admissions we were pretty close to the trueth before... so I just hope your gues is far fetched, as it goes in pretty much the opposite directions of the previous ideas.
Since let's be true... that would make the MC the bad guy for "enslaveing" his sister and friends in order to make humanity fall to some calamity.

Not necessarily, MC wouldn't realize he is being used by the crone. Crone probably has visions like the FQ does, she knows MC is important thats why she is teaching him stuff to try to get him on her side. She might want to use MC's powers on the princess for example. Who else in the game could be the antagonist?

I'm not saying this specific crone is, but in general most crone characters are quite malicious/cunning in nature, they usually aren't the good guys. She has some sort of agenda.

Nobody would've guesses than Nell is the FQ's sister either, so I expect some twists.

The path to hell is plated with good intensions... isn't it?
But to offer you another target... previously we theorized, that the Crone is princess Lilith (in disguise) and the women from the river and that the future Queen is posessed by a demon and hencefore must be stoped from aquiring a position of power. As she would likely repeat history and use humanity to wage a war of attrition against the fey and further possess humanity in order to turn them into a demon race (which could quiet likely be called a calamity).

Two other people have reported this error, but I've been unable to reproduce it. Do you think you could send me your save somehow? I would like to examine it more closely.

That bug was already fixed in version 0.26.1 about a week ago. The hotfix also repairs saves that ran into the bug earlier.

Who murdered the MC's mentor?
That's where the story begins so the murder is the catalyst which started events. Before his murder the MC was living his life unaware his mind had be altered. If Merrick was behind prepping the MC who killed him to prevent him finishing the job?
Another alternative is that Merrick was not the one who prepped the MC's mind, but had discovered the alteration and had to be silenced.
Either way find Merrick's killer and the entire colluded story becomes clear.

Belle may in fact be a mole sent to watch over and keep the MC's attention diverted by chasing young women. But does she realize her role? Belle appears to be a hyper-sexed pixie that would lead the MC astray without being instructed to do so. The flaw in the killers machinations may be the pixie is becoming fond of the MC and may in the end save him, hopefully not at the cost of her life.

if you ask Belle "Why to trust her?" dureing the first meeting she says something crypted... about the player would already know why... so maybe she was send back in time to help the player.
Probably would also explain her unique social and sexual orrientation.

 

[RustyV]

Could also be a clue as to who and when The MC's memory was erased.

I would like to find out what Belle did to the other fairy to get called in front of the Fairy Court. It might have something to do with her being involved in this whole adventure. Did Belle get banished and end up serving the crone?
And of course why is Belle the only pixie not into other pixies? Was she too altered to be a pawn?
Ultimately I would like a MC+Belle route, they seem to have a close relationship and both work with magic.

 

[Heliophorus]

Let the crone be the princess. I would marry her if need be to save ex fairy queen.

 

[Incognito Guy]

Holy crap that pawn talk with Samarra pumped me up! Not to mention sky rocketed her in the best girl tier list.

Belle I'd tell you not to disappoint us when the time to make good on her word comes, but after all this time I'm starting to think it isn't needed. Props.

I agree about the Crone likely being the princess Selene's sister. She recognizing Thadeus's voice plus all she knows about the princess, feels like she was quite close to Selene's social circles in the past.

I also got the feeling the Crone was the one who poisoned truthsayer Merek to force the protagonist to ask for her help learning magic. After all who else had the magic knowledge to change appearance and would benefit from the old man dying in the story so far?

 

[Dayswithoutincident69]

the mc everytime clues are to be used on a character, and I'm not complaining.


edit: and I bet the writers are doing it on purpose lol

 

[Paradox101]

Can someone help me out and tell me if i've run into in issue with the game, like a bug or something?

Following the guide on day 36 when giving Evelyn a massage the option "If I’m going any lower, you should take your panties off first." never shows up and the massage just ends. I kept going in the guide. I let Thaddeus and Evelyn continue for awhile for the coins. Then I stopped it. Turns out she is still giving me money but Thanddeus is always busy so it looks like i succesfully stopped them but I'm still getting the money. No matter how many times I try the massage i can't get the option to go lower and i guess that step is required to have sex with Evelyn as i've went as far as a can on her path and convinced her. Seems like I'm just stuck.

Was there a problem stopping Thaddeus and Evelyn? Did the game not recognize that i stopped them? Did I let them go on too long maybe? A bug? Anyone else seen this before? Is starting over my only option here?

 

[HVSS]

After having spent a couple more hours messing around with it i'd say the game is super solid despite the scenes that i (personally) find lacking, i don't mean the pseudo-animations which i don't really have a problem with but the apparently limited choices in positions, missionary and doggy style come up a bit too often imho. Also, and this is more of a semi-serious nitpick, i couldn't help but feel cheated when i got a titjob from Evelyn instead of an assjob after that massage tbh. Especially since the entire scene is mostly focused around her goergous backside the anticipation was kind of ruined for me. If anything it's a testament to the game's writing that i've spent so many hours playing around despite this.
Sounds really entitled but i don't know how else to put it.

[Belle]

I'm not the one you're replying to, but I have this error as well.

I'll look into it. The game doesn't run right now because I'm in the middle of adding a large batch of code, but once I get it running again, I'll see what I can figure out. In the meantime, I recommend running the previous version of the game, loading that save, moving to a different location (one where you don't have a menu active), and saving. Then try that new save in the latest version.
