Less a misquote and more of a misunderstanding. You did say swat. When someone says swat I think of a fly swatted, blood and guts everywhere. I'm not a fan of the queen (specifically cheating) or the whining princess, but I play multiple paths like many, and I think most people would play to screw as many women as possible so I made an assumption there. Mea Culpa.

Kings don't usually just stand down. Any show of power is going to lead to plenty of bloodshed and I don't think that is the path the dev/MC wants to go at the moment. The MC likes the royal family, whether we do or not, so he is in no hurry to alienate them regardless of whether you want to go that path or not. I'm playing a screw everything path, a dark path, an Eliza path and a few others. That was my take on the situation from playing those paths, so I don't have much of an issue with how the dev handled it. The MC is building a home and collecting allies like Kira and the pirates. So I don't see him running off and adventuring, but building something worth fighting for. The MC says a few times he has been running all his life, and wants to settle down with Eliza/harem.

I agree Taron's time is up. If the dev doesn't deal with Taron here then its going to be a problem for his audience. Taron either needs to die or escape to one of the more powerful foes and bring them in to the story perhaps the vampires for Eliza to show her teeth.
Which really comes back to the point of no real choice and it feeling more like a kinetic novel than anything else. Even rejecting some girls it still acts like the MC slept with them, which if you do that on a first playthrough is pretty confusing. As for the king standing down, this is no king, just a pathetic weak man playing king. It has been shown he has no real power or influence and is just barely having any grip on the pieces that he thinks he has. It would be easy to break him and pretty fun. The other problem is the direction of the forced route with the royal family. The whole writing itself at this point has become a mess and contrived. It is as if both the story and MC are literally stuck and haven't gone anywhere significant.

Also in terms of building a home yeah that sounds like an end game goal, but to use that mid game really limits the potential of the story and the experience of the player as well after seeing how large the world supposedly is. Speaking personally when I first started this game it was interesting and it kept my attention for a while but I quickly caught on to the lack of choices or meaning. After the pirate arc I really considered dropping this game, but stuck around only because of Eliza, but at this point for me it really is doing more wrong than right. I honestly can't rationalize most of what the MC is doing now and it has come to the point where the game is more frustrating and annoying than enjoyable, so I might have to check out of this one. The writing just doesn't click with me anymore.

The Mc has godlike powers and they said Mc could conquer the world but he turns b*tch and get tossed in a cell
but before that he just lets Amelia go back to the castle herself like do your job and guard her. I feel like the Mc is getting nerfed and making him dumb at this point i mean he got dog walked by some Guards and let them disrespect Eliza, and didn't even try defend the accusation then soon to be cucked king goes from buddy buddy to ass*ole then Taron literally comes out of nowhere being annoying as hell like the Mc is way stronger then him now with the symbiote he has now. Mc keeps letting Taron F*ck with him first he used Selena to have her betray Mc then leads to Taron paralyzing Eliza like mc been looking for him for years saw him three time and he's passive asf.
MC is a retard. He has laser eyes and never fucking uses them when he should. Oh, look, it's Taron. *LASER EYES!* Bye Taron. "Oh, you can't do that, you'll make an enemy out of the whole kingdom." He's a fucking half-angel and he just melted a guy with his god damn eyes. Who's going to go up and start shit with that guy? You? Sure, go ahead.

He's a kid.
I absolutely fucking hate this excuse. "He's a kid" works until they stop shitting themselves.

first things first..
what happened with the "thug lady" screenshot0001.png when you let her alive?
i was hoping to see her again and add her too my harem because she looks fuckable but nothing so far..
you could have put her in another guild and let us meet her again and fuck her :D

second thing

Personally the Royal arc is my favorite right now I think. In part because the princess is my second favorite character after this update. As she reminds alot of Eliza I consider her basically Eliza 2.0. But we saw some good deveolopment from Luna , lore building of the world and the other angels / deities as well.
why would you think she is a Eliza 2.0? they have nothing in common

i thought more of Alice when i saw her in that outfit

screenshot0002.png screenshot0004.png

they could be sisters in my opion lmao and as we know Alice is also a blonde and wanted to adventure with the mc as kids (and still want).
just put her in noble (sexy) dresses and they would look alike :D

She doesn't need to have anything in common to remind me of Eliza if you look beyond just the character's interest and hobbies / personality. But to answer your question it's more of how she was acting in this update being full of energy , wanting to go adventures , having the time of her life. Basically everything about taking her out of the castle really gave me Eliza vibes before she became a vampire . Her appearance has nothing to do with it. I really started to get into her character this update just as much as I did with Eliza at the start of the game.

I think it's funny that everyone assumes MC's laser eyes would work on Taron...he's the current BBEG, and that's literally the first power MC unlocks...

eh I think it would I used to think Taron was the big bad guy but it's clear now he really is just a small fry / grunt to his master who he actually works for. He reminds me more of Little Finger from game of thrones pulling all the strings but I dont see much of a match for someone like Eliza or the MC anymore. Against a ordinary human he would be a foe to fear.

October is on the horizon! That means spooky season... And in Nephilim we will be honoring the season with a traditional fan favorite Halloween monster!

It has been hinted in previous updates, can you guess what or who it might be?
Find out in v0.4.8!

Yes, I know, different universe, but hear me out here :

Superman's heat vision works on Darkseid. Sure, it won't kill him, but it hurts.
Darkseid is a New God.

MC is a half-angel.
Taron is a little bitch human.

Pretty sure they'd work unless he happens to have some sort of magical defenses against them, but it doesn't matter because the MC NEVER FUCKING USES THEM!

...can you tell that bugs me? :unsure: :ROFLMAO:

Sounds like not bothering to get them was the better choice then. 1 point for non murder hobo MC.

for the powers for sure seems like the other power is better at this point. But to me murder hobo is always the correct move since he tried to kill the MC and was a professional assassin.

If I can do something without death I will. A dead man can never right his wrongs or strive to, at best his only contribution is the things he did before death. A living man can strive to make up for his failings and attempt to balance the skills for the crimes he's committed.

There's a reason a lot of people consider death to be the easy way out.

honestly surprised that was enough to make to drop it. I agree that should of been differently for that plot point but I feel if you made it this far wouldn't be that big of a deal. Things like the Pirate arc with Kira , Eliza sudden change into a vampire out of nowhere, how the MC handled her changing into a vampire , not telling the King about Taron was alot worst and a much bigger deal
Yeah - I tend to agree - it's been a solid story up to this point with very little to criticize. I didn't like the vampire transition either but the author resolved that with some leeway to fully fix it. But my "fuck-up" filter went off immediately when the loyal, intense, and committed body guard just dropped his responsibility so easily fully well knowing that the princess had not yet been returned to safety. Out of character. While every story needs a good villain this is just too much for me. Turning the major LI into a vampire, putting the princess into harm's way by violating his principles as an aspiring and supernaturally gifted knight, and letting the villain go unpunished was just too much. It is amateurish writing to use such a flimsy pretext particularly since ample evidence had been provided by which he could later locate his old friend. But it's gone now so water under the bridge. Won't go back as there are plenty of other good works out there these days that don't resort to shark jumps to move a story along.

true but for that person I did not see him trying to redeem himself or would be willing to make up for things in his past and logically at the time just made sense. But knowing what I know now of how strong the MC and Eliza become yeah would make more sense to spare him as he would be no threat to us in the future. My main reasoning for killing him was not just because he tried to kill the MC but also logically since he was a assassin I figured he would try again. Since it wasn't just because the MC has a bounty on his head but he was after the MC for revenge as I believe Oren killed the assassins brother .

fair enough yeah really the bodyguard thing I have more of an issue with over other things I didn't not like. I don't really mind the Villian going unpunished up until this point at least for now. But he does need to do something about him soon it's now starting to be to much with doing nothing after what he just pulled on the MC. But I completely get you thankfully im playing this game more for the character than story or it might bother me a bit more. While I can tolerate alot I do hate it when things are predictable or disregard logic for the sake of setting up something in the story when it could of been done differently and better.

Just wait for the next disaster, Kings Naval Fleet is heading to the Pirate Cove, so expect FUBAK hitting the fan in a few updates, plus Talon taking advantage out of it :devilish:

I do agree the other Kingdoms are far more interesting but I really get the feeling that is done on purpose. As I assume the MC is going to be a protector of the realm of sorts against these other kingdoms either as a ruler or just simply helping out the Royal Family in one way or another.

I do disagree about revealing to the King we are a Nephilim as a show of force to not fuck with us instead of being sent to the dungeons. To me that would only make sense as a Dark Option. I wouldn't want to do it on a save im not doing playing purely on the dark path as my main save. As I still consider the Royal Family my allies they were just manipulated by Taron. Not just that im under the assumption we are not trying to reveal to others we are a Nephilim. Even with a show of force I wouldn't trust the guards not the spill the secret at some point and that would mean having to kill them to keep them quiet if the MC would do the smart thing. So I think something Major like that needs to be a choice and not forced.
I agree with most of your post but I can't agree with the Princess being Eliza 2.0. Eliza is by far my fav girl, I love her to bits. The princess I don't like much at all. She is a rung above Kira in my book. The princess is arrogant and whiny, Eliza is none of those things, but thats okay, we agree on a lot, we can't agree on everything.

haha yeah I can see that wasn't fond of her at first but she grew on me alot however. She started off as whiny and self centered due to being royal but she improved alot for me . It was only in this update she is basically Eliza 2.0 to me as I saw more of a glimpse of her real self if she wasn't locked up in the castle. I see her whiny and self center version of her more as her being fake and showing what she has to show in public but not who she is. From what I saw in the update it really reminded me of Eliza before we got to the city , just from the way she was acting during their brief outing.
