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

[grgrgr5]

You can't get ALL the content in one playthrough in any game with choices, it's what choices are designed for, to get you to choose.

You might want to stick to movies or kinetic novels, there are no choices to make and you can see it all.

If it handed all the content over, it would make choices pointless and they may as well not be there. The entire game would be ruined just because you can't understand how games work.

Why might I want to "stick to movies or kinetic novels"? Am I not entitled to voice an opinion about a game mechanic that frustrates me without being told I shouldn't be playing a certain type of game? One should voice their opinion on these things. I'm sorry that opinion upset you to the point you felt the need to be insulting.

Nothing I said was untrue. The "choices" presented aren't really choices if you have no expectations about their outcomes. I have no way of knowing that not clearing Prims name wouldn't lead to a game over (let alone leads to an alternate path), so it wasn't a choice. It was doing what the game told me to do. Nor do I have any idea if accepting a girlfriend proposal means cutting off content with other characters. If I'm completely in the dark about the alternatives, then I have no idea I'm even making a choice at all.

There are no game overs until the ending credits. Even death doesn't stop you

That's good to know. I hate game overs in these types of games.

The point of "locking" content is to promote going back and doing multiple playthroughs, either fresh or with NG+. Like, of course some things are going to be confusing, LLtP has never been about giving you all the answers to all the problems. You have to pay at least a little attention to everything and everybody, like in real life, as if these were actually people. Can't just mash the mouse and jack off the whole time. There's some actual light gameplay elements here paired with some great writing and it's honestly refreshing. There's some actual smart game design here that pushes the limits of a usually limited engine/style of game.

The princess is literally the end of the game. You are basically asking for the game to end

There are multiple princesses in the game already.

technically there is only one princess that hides her identity and 2 Queens though

For the record, I'm considering making the time limit optional, a choice you make at the start of the game (alongside a different one that I will reveal later). It would break the game and its intended purpose, but for players who absolutely cannot stand a time limit of any kind, at least they'll have a choice. The ending is going to lose a lot of its impact on them, but I can warn them about this when they make the choice in the first place.

I personally feel like choosing to remove the time limit would be like pissing in your pants to stay warm, but if it's the thing that decides whether or not someone even plays the game, to begin with, then maybe the proverbial pissing of your pants should be an optional feature after all.

Stick to your guns. When people make these type of compliants, it's because you're doing a good job. You leave them wanting more, but with the tools to do so. Please don't waiver like Summertime Saga did, and make it so further plays throughs are pointless

Selena has not been crowned yet. So, still a princess. And Nell qualifies as a princess as well, being the daughter of a queen. At least until she is a queen herself

The Fey don't work that way though... it's said early on, that the title of "Queen" is not inheritable in Fey society.
And So far Selena is not in the game.... she is only a hinted shadow to become.
We heard of 3 Fairy Queens, the first we never met, the second one steps down inorder to die after looseing most of her Powers by saveing you, and finally you convince Nelle to take the test about becomeing the next Fey Queen... and she succeeds.... so I repeat myself TECHNICALLY there is only 1 Princess included in the game right now

 

[Belle]

You'll get to see Selena soon enough. Like, within a month.

 

[MysteryCrabs]

The title screen begs to differ

She is close enough that you get a preview of her face... (we already had that dureing the Invade mind training though), but she is still not present as a interactable character

We see her body in Crone's memories

For what purpose?

There is a training yard and no other skills to train, seems like wasted effort.

For hand to hand fight without magic & weapons

Again, why?

That's what the training yard is for.

It handles all training.
