oh, while i'm here, Droid i don't really know what's up, but even when i match ANY yellows it just charges my RED skill???? i'm playing whatever is current on steam btw (0.6.3).....
Just tested it; works fine.

At a guess you've got a Red/Yellow skill in a higher slot (that will take both red AND yellow) and that's eating the yellows that you are filling it with.

Angelic Denial is yellow
Vulcanic Blast is Red
Rejuvination is Red/Yellow

yup, just noticed.....and for some strange reason i didn't notice the symbol WAS red/yellow! damn my shitty eyesight......ok, but all good now! thanks! oh, also, i remember you saying not all 4 paths were 1 full playthru, meaning you could EITHER get Katie, Emily, OR be alone......but i remember the names of the paths were slightly different......i know light=emily, and fire=katie, but what are the other 2? and are they separate endings? or can those 2 be played DURING the main 2?

The paths are:
Path of Light (Emily)
Path of Fire (Katie)
Path of Peace (Lin)
Path of Shadows (None)

Path of Peace (what I used to call Path of Submission) will be override by Katie/Emily; you can complete Lin's questline both on the Path of Fire / Light, but you won't get the Path of Peace ending unless you've completed her questline + have turned down both Katie and Emily.

Path of Shadows happens if you've turned down both Katie and Emily, and haven't finished Lin's questline (you can play around with her, but unless you trigger the event called Confessions, you won't trigger the Path of Peace).

In all the paths you're free to screw around with side-LIs (Katja, Ciara, Snowdrop, Saoe, Mulau and Saffron, etc).

It's actually kinda sad how few people will see Path of Shadows, because it is quite a cool ending :)

so easiest way to play is 4 playthrus, but ignore ALL LI's EXCEPT the path you are on for Emily, Katie, and Lin, but 1 playthru with ALL other LI's (ignoring the main 3, aside from storyline interactions), right?

If you're going for Katie / Emily, bang whoever else you want; neither of them will care.
If you're going for Lin, ignore both Katie and Emily, apart from that, play around all you want.
If you're going for shadows, just make sure you don't do the Confessions event (easier to just turn down Lin, I guess).

No worries, I feel certain I will see them all. Probably more than once.:LOL:

Not to start a political pissing contest, but they "offended" some bored SJW in CA... so gone. I heard they are going to have a new Auncle Jamben, as more representative of they/thems to remake both brands. Hey! Maybe they/them will have a Brogue???
Never really believed in it, myself. Politics, that is, not brogues... :rolleyes: As far as they/them goes... I guess they can do whatever they want as long as they don't try to stick it/that in my face. Jus' Sayin':cool:

You did such a good job with Emily and Katie's paths (I like Lin but she is a distant third for me) that I never considered going for the path of shadows.

So - the path of shadows is a victim of the quality of their stories/paths - which is a compliment to your writing/story telling skills even if it means that the path of shadows is the path much less traveled.

Could you add in a way to unlock the ending scenes so we could still enjoy the ending of the path of shadows even if we chose to enjoy Emily/Katie/Lin content through the end of Morningstar?

Cheers!! :coffee:

You can use the debug menu; just go to day 112, disable flags PATH_OF_LIGHT, PATH_OF_FIRE, LIN_CONFESSIONS.

It'll auto-select path of shadows.

dude...i said EASIEST aka SIMPLIST for me......the simplist/least complicated way to get ALL endings is EXACTLY how i stated. i take ABSOLUTELY no chance of EVER straying off ANY path! taking ANY steps off each specific path gives me the random chance to fuck up!

If there's any native Chinese speakers here who want a free steam-key in return for testing the chinese localization, let me know.
It's (in theory) done, but the AI's choked on a number of places... mostly smaller words like here

(I haven't touched the UI yet... still trying to decide if this is worth doing or not). In theory the UI is... easy-ish. Work, but solved work. Getting a half-decent AI dialog localization that doesn't sound like a 1970s scifi robot is the hard part.

oh, just wanted to bring this to your attention-
Morningstar Glitch 01.png
Morningstar Glitch 02.png
i'm on day 101 in the maze.......dunno if that matters.....great game! but it SUCKS when opponents START with REGEN at like 40 AND THEY GET 40% OF THEIR TOTAL HP BACK! and since the game treats HP and shields somewhat the same, after 10 or so rounds, their SHIELDS will be over 10k and you are lucky to be dealing a few hundred damage per round! and REGEN only goes down by 1 per round...... also, how does rage even work in this game? i seem to get my rage in the triple digits, but my jab STILL does LESS THAN MY RAGE!!???!

Good point, I probably don't want regen to affect shields. I'll have a look.

Rage only affects skulls, not all other attacks.

oh, and how come you can't run from a fight? i've wondered that since LoM......
You kinda do, since you can run back to the startpoint. Running away makes sense in JRPGs with limited save points and whatnot; you can save anywhere outside of combat in LoM and MS, so it makes less sense there.
