Just in the interest of full disclosure, I am not the developer for this title, just a supporter who casually throws around walls of text, shares development news, and performs other activities that hopefully helps to build up the community for this title. Threshold is the developer, they have a post a few places above this one.Every character in your game will have fans who want more, but limits and compromises are an inevitable fact of life. If nothing else, I'm grateful to you for valuing the artists' contributions!
Along with SwordofHeaven's and Frank01's advice, this guidance shows that you've designed the game to avoid terminally unplayable states. I'm sorry for taking a confrontational and dismissive tone during the conversation. Thanks to all of you for your helpful responses to my frustration!
-c.
Good responses all around, I'll largely just leave it at that otherwise we'll likely start moving into circular arguments and keep retreading the same ground, especially as she is still in development and could change more in the future which could render my, your, or both our arguments moot. There is a little I do want to say however with the first being about a quote in game that is easy to miss:It's fine I like to discuss and argue stuff anyways also you pointed one thing where I said I'd retract and say I was wrong if I got it wrong and I did so at the very least thank you for that, but I do find it thought provoking as well.

There's most of my feelings about Kotone as of now but do I think that she could be made a better character? Yes I do, down below in the spoiler is how IMO.

Yay the post is done and ye may bring out your dead! Cheers!
I do not offer full clear saves as not all of the potential relationship routes may match up with someone's tastes not to mention preferences in stat build and skills learned and used. I do have a cheat start save file such as the one attached to this post that can make your journey through the game and building the relationships you desire a much easier and faster process as you'll have a few million Eros, be over level 100, and so on. That post will also tell you how you may customize it and change the name to something you may like more.someone give me a full clear? file please.
Volta provided a basic outline, so thank you very much for that. To begin with, other than cheating with theany guide to make money quick?
That's odd, the "Enter the bar" option should have "Go to the bar." along with either "Look around the Tavern" or "Check out the Tavern's nightlife" depending on whether it is daytime or nighttime respectively, then the option to "Sit down and order some food.", and then finally leave the bar. As entering the bar will flag Belle as met, "Go to the bar." is set as always visible and is available for even a newly created character. Out of curiosity, what platform are you playing on and what version number does your game show if you open the menu and then select Credits?Im trying to start Belle's (Relationship / Path?) but I don't see an option to talk to her. I've visited the wiki and it says you gotta visit the bar then you can talk to her. However I don't see such an option when I visit the bar. I see "Enter the bar", the the two choices for food and looking at the nightlife. Am I missing something? Is it because I'm working at the bar, that I'm not locked out of Belle? Any replies welcome.
Fair enough I feel that fair points have been made on both sides as well. I just find it fun to debate these things and can sometimes get stuck in a circle debating rift with friends. That being said I love debates mainly because when you debate you have to reevaluate your own position and be like "Do I still think this presented with this new argument/information?" and I love that the answer could be Yes I still think this, No I changed my mind to the opposite position, or even Wildcard Baby I reject both sides and make a new one for myself now or anything in between.Good responses all around, I'll largely just leave it at that otherwise we'll likely start moving into circular arguments and keep retreading the same ground, especially as she is still in development and could change more in the future which could render my, your, or both our arguments moot.

These likely do not really move the needle with regards to the discussion, but I did want to put that information out there, especially about that quote in game that can be missed. Either way, thank you very much for having this discussion on characters like Kotone, Sofia, and Kaia, doomgal.
I do hope that everyone interested in this information finds this at least a little useful.
Mindrapists deserve no better.That my dear Child is referred to as murder and is frowned upon in most polite societies![]()
hmmmmm, I'm assuming this comment is dead serious, see what I did there ;0, so I'd like to ask what is it about Kotone that you truly hate/dislike? I can kinda assume because I think we both have issues in the same area just want to confirm since you know what they say about assumptions. Also, do you think there is a way in which you would find Kotone redeemable or no? I did put in a previous post how I would try to 'fix' Kotone and would like to know if you do or don't agree that's possible.Mindrapists deserve no better.
saves are stored in your appdata, so you don't have to worry about transferring them, as long as you download a new version, you can load the old saves. Only exceptions to this are if the game system changes heavily (i.e. when day night system added) or you load a save outside town after updating, in which old saves can get buggy. if you do need to deal with the save files you can probably find the location if you use search on this thread.Wait is the Belle Romance option only on the newest version? I've realized that my folder version specifically says "Alpha v23.1". I think I saw somewhere that there was a newer version but I'm not quite sure. Also if there is, how would I go about updating without having to start over again? I'm not too savvy when it comes to digging in files, best I know is how to torrent and change locales : P
On the topic of player mind-fuckery, which isn't really all that different to us already being able to talk people into orgasm and throw infinite supplies of aphrodesiacs at them, it'd be nice to have the bat mind-control herself since that's one of her fetishes, something she passively does and would justify why she keeps speaking outloud; maybe she's already hypnotizing herself all the timeSnippu
Yes because mind break is the same as dirty talk.On the topic of player mind-fuckery, which isn't really all that different to us already being able to talk people into orgasm and throw infinite supplies of aphrodesiacs at them, it'd be nice to have the bat mind-control herself since that's one of her fetishes, something she passively does and would justify why she keeps speaking outloud; maybe she's already hypnotizing herself all the time
Some people like the fantasy of being mind controlled into orgasmic submission by a glamorous, but nefarious big titty villainess. That's it. That's all of it.First off all let me say thanks for responding. I do appreciate it and hope that I may have brought some enjoyment and a few laughs with my absolute RANTING about Kotone. Also, like I said before I don't mean much by the hatred part it's again mostly me joking about.

Once again thank for your response and I wish you the best with this game. Like I said before this is one of my favorite text based games out there..... Should probably actually do a review at some point...... HEY DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT I'M LAZY ALRIGHT?!?
Anyways Cheers!
Oh, I certainly enjoy debating and discussing content as well, a brief look through this thread or a visit to MGD's Discord will allow one to see my walls of text scattered all over. Although my activity online has diminished in general as of late due to work being rather busy due to current events, but I digress. As you said, fair points were raised on both sides, so it seemed a fine point to draw the current discussion to a close before it devolved into a back-and-forth argument retreading the same ground. Sure, the debate could still be enjoyable, but it wouldn't serve much of a purpose by that point and would just use time better spent elsewhere. Besides, if I spent all of my limited free time debating a single topic, I wouldn't be able to do any more work on the wiki or anything else I need or want to do. So yes, while it was enjoyable, it reached a fine point to end on for the moment. Now, as for the Will side trials seeming empty...Fair enough I feel that fair points have been made on both sides as well. I just find it fun to debate these things and can sometimes get stuck in a circle debating rift with friends. That being said I love debates mainly because when you debate you have to reevaluate your own position and be like "Do I still think this presented with this new argument/information?" and I love that the answer could be Yes I still think this, No I changed my mind to the opposite position, or even Wildcard Baby I reject both sides and make a new one for myself now or anything in between.

That all being said I always enjoy walls of text no matter if I'm included in them or not since they're always fun to read IMO. CHEERS ALL!
Apologies for the delay on this response, work has kept me rather busy the past few days. v23.1 is a full build as well as a bugfix behind. The current version is usually in the title unless it was forgotten when updating the thread. To be absolutely certain, you can always check the first post and see what it lists as the current version in the changelogs and the like or visit Threshold'sWait is the Belle Romance option only on the newest version? I've realized that my folder version specifically says "Alpha v23.1". I think I saw somewhere that there was a newer version but I'm not quite sure.

For point #1, for better or worse the player currently will not have access to the Trance status effect given how powerful it is. The same holds true for Paralysis, as being able to get either status effect to high levels of stacks or full stacks would essentially be an instant win. However, while we cannot use it in combat, there is always the possibility that there could be a character in the future the player could hypno-dom instead. Tabitha seems a potential candidate for her sub path, especially what with taking her in front of a mirror and everything.Since the topics have been broached or brought up, I would like to say that some cool addition to the game could be:
1: Player controlled Hypnosis content. Perhaps Kotone or Tabitha could give the player ideas or train them on how to trance other Monster girls. We already have something similar with the Tengu although that's reversing their spell moreso than us using anything. I just really like the idea of putting the Monster Girls in trances which I thing would do AMAZINGLY well with Indulgence builds as you the player can have those more pleasurable moments with different Monster Girls than doing just "WHO WHO CUMS FIRST COMES LAST!" not that I don't love battle fucking formulas. It's just an idea. I mean, who wouldn't want to really indulge in the different bodies of all the Monster Girls outside of just post-battle domination/sex?
2: Mending Kotone and Feng's rocky relationship. It was said earlier by the dev that kotone already has a lot of content over the other Monster Girls and still have more content planed for, but I think this could be moreso Feng's content than Kotone's. It could unlock once you hear from both Feng and Kotone about the matter, but it would be issued by Feng as Kotone would most likely be far less willing to try and take that step as she's already done quite a bit and feels far too guilty. Perhaps the constant reminder of seeing Feng could be a self-induced punishment for herself for what she did. With all she did to humanity, her family, and even her best friend to have said best friend be a shadow of their former self could feel as her being properly punished. Since Feng is much more willing to change things or rather improve things, it'd feel more right being HER content even though Kotone also benefits. Perhaps give the options for Kotone to embrace the new relationship of Master and Servant, Kotone revealing all to Feng and Feng perhaps having some closure to what she feels while Kotone accepts it and Feng calls her more friendly instead of the Master/Servant relationship, and have an option for Kotone not to accept it and continue to feel guilty, but for Feng to tell her that it's fine that she can't fully accept it and that she still cares for her. Either options gives Feng closure and she DOESN'T change (although the option can exist for her to change, up to you but I feel that can detract from Feng's character a bit). So yeah, I think this is a good expansion to Feng's content.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
3: Kotone sparring. Now hear me out on this. I know Kotone already has a lot of content both current and planned, but considering most romance options have the option to spar with your partner for some good battlefuck for domination stuff, I feel this can again give hypnosis lovers even more content (as I personally enjoyed battling against Sofia's and the Oni's hypno content). This could even segway into an earlier point of Kotone teaching the player some hypnosis as one must be resistant (well, in other forms. Doubtful Kotone would ever make the player RESISTANT to her favorite kink) and more knowledgeable of it to fully understand it. Fun times of Kotone teasing the player, knowing that the battle can end so quickly but it's more of a lesson than the point of winning or losing. Either way, I'm curious as to how Kotone's hypnosis would be applied in that format and am more than willing to offer aid to help facilitate the goal of its inclusion.
Hope the dev(s) give this a read! Already looking forward to the next patches with bated breath.
Yeah, the Casino does have a reputation of turning those who become indebted to the house into debt-slaves and have them work off their debt, which typically has them turned into pleasure addicts and usually wind up married and give up their adventure by the end. Suffice to say, it is a known point that the Luck Commander who also is the owner of the Casino, and likely several other businesses given their financial might, is not a very nice person and likely not very good as well. They are petty enough that they would apparently cut off all supplies to the Will-Power Temple as punishment if the Oni Twins spoiled her introduction and revealed her name and Monster Girl species based on conversations with the twins. I could certainly see the Casino Owner/Luck Commander offering another findom addiction in a different flavor than the financial domination addiction Venefica offers considering the Luck Commander is someone who uses their economic clout to achieve their ends and may be the type to view money as power.Also L30 I just remembered something! The Succubus Campers mention how in the Capital's Casino people are made into sex slaves and essentially get addicted to it. This could be a fair bit of addiction content and perhaps more hypnosis content for the player. I got a bit excited reading it so here's hoping! I'm also hoping for the flat chested, levitating Rut inducers in the Capital, but I'm also hoping for Galvi expansions, or both.
SO here's hoping to all these things
By dev mode, do you perhaps mean the console? If so, then yes, thisuhm. Does anyone know how to activate dev mode for the latest release?![]()
