Edit: Does this only work on story battles? Can't get it to work.
It should work properly. Also, if you're talking about the fights being too long, then my guess is that you haven't really delved into changing your gems. Terrible gems can make a minute-long fight into 10 or so minutes of slog fest. On the other hand, having a great gem sets can let you clear 50k+ HP enemies before you even clear the first board. If you want faster fights, then rage-cluster is the all-time set if you subscribe to "Best Defense is a Good Offense." Invest in STR for more damage and more HP to tank the rage penalty. Or have Emily and Dylan as supports.

Well hitting zero does nothing. The number shortcuts work for the assists. I don't want to do any of that because it sucks. Also 30 seconds is too long.
It's not implemented for book1 yet, I'll add it once I go back to tweak it after finishing book3

Having said that, ctrl + J, give yourself 100 str/int/chr, 100,000 cash, and ignore the paths for anything except rest-stops, treasure or shrines, since those occasionally have story pellets attached to them.

> Brings up that the fights are too slow.
> Was provided a way to fix that, which was also mentioned multiple times in-game before you're given the chance to actually enter the portal (Katie, Chloe, Torman, Adrian, etc.).
> Complains that he doesn't wanna do it because...reasons.

Honestly, the gameplay of this game is pretty awesome if you gave it a chance. You're free to your opinion, and all that but saying it's a grind without doing the bare minimum like buying gems where it really opens up the gameplay and give you considerable boost in effectiveness over the junk "gems" is quite an unfair assessment, don't you think?

Anyway, the option's always there. Most of the story fights are either skippable or have timed trigger events. Just use the debug menu and set your STR, INT, and CHA to 1M each to make sure that you one-shot the enemies. Then Cash to 1M. The unwinnable fight should have a guard that prevents players with those stats from actually winning it. I tried way back then. Set the poker animation to max too in the settings.

Also 30 seconds is too long.
The trilogy's roughly 100+ hours, dude. :LOL: Spending 30 or so seconds buying and setting up gems once or twice in the entire game shouldn't be that long in comparison. Anyway, you do you.

Well, this is strange.
After being thoroughly entertained and enthralled by books one and two, I find myself disengaging from the emotional story of book 3.
I don't want to seduce princess/queen version 2. I don't want to mess around with any of the Chosen and feel icky when the game 'forces' me to. I hate the 'Sir Tomcat' moniker - and the fact that MC totally deserves it. The main reason is because the love of your universe, version 1 is still out there and must be totally heartbroken about MC's apparent death. As a player, I felt icky about cheating on your wife with your wife, the Chosen were irritating especially when sex was forced upon MC, and I didn't find the emotional dilemma or grief I would expect MC to experience in the story - or at least not enough.
I'm in awe of all the inventivity in the game, the worldbuilding, the well-built plot, the scope, the way the mechanics work, and the fact that this momentous undertaking has been finished. This is undoubtedly one of the most ambitious and succesful AVNs/games out there. I just wish there was an alternative emotional path to follow in book 3. Even in a porn game, sometimes the player just wants to keep it in his pants... ;)

(Case in point: I turn down Mab's offer of a threesome with Aiofe, then we get the Matthew business, back to Camelot, emotional scene with Queen (I'm not using their names as I renamed them all in highly immature ways), say goodbye, go back to the KD and BAM! MC is cockdeep in Aiofe and Mab without any warning and absolutely not what I as a player wanted to experience. Why be allowed to turn them down if it's going to happen regardless and without the least preamble?)

While ,contrary to my esteemed colleague above, I did enjoy the various sexual encounters, I do agree that most of the actions being forced on the player, may have been a mistake.

Having another reality with different people (let's not have that discussion again, y'all know my view on that :D ), was going to be something with very different views on that. While I command Droid on having the balls to take such decision, making the interactions mandatory as well, may not have been the best idea.

Too late to change it probably, but maybe some point to keep in mind for morningstar?

No worries.
Some stuff....
I just really dislike the combat and do not want to spend any time on it. Though admittedly I was in a somewhat foul mood yesterday.

Pretty much all the sexual events are optional, except the Emily ones. Including the Aoife/Mab one; not quite sure what you did to auto-trigger it, but certainly it's a "no, thanks" one.

I was a bit "thinking" as well when the Emily events happened.

Does anyone know how far are we from the ending? I just finished book 2 and would rather wait for the ending of book 3 if it will be published soon.

I'd say pretty damn close. It certainly feel like it's coming to an end alright.
I'm... not sure I'm happy with that... Yes, I'm happy it'll be completed. But, I'm NOT happy it'll be completed as well!!! lol

Thanks for the answer mate and I share your conflicted emotions. It was one hell of a ride and I haven't been invested in a story for so long, and knowing it will end feel bittersweet. I just hope they don't fuck it up in the final I have seen too many beautiful things turn to shit towards the end.

If you just completed Book 2, go ahead. There's a reason I killed myself the 3 weeks after book 2 ended to get the first 4 days of book 3 into my discord player's hands. You can stop after the first act of Book 3 if you want (on the plane to Japan)

I'm right now working on the final act of the game; about 1/4 through it at a rough guess.

If you have not heard yet, he's already wet our appetite with another game, with most of the same characters (models and default names), but a VERY different setting. Still shines of quality :) It's still very early on, so not that much content yet, but what is there, is quite enjoyable.
