VN Ren'Py Nephilim [v0.5.0] [BuuPlays]

[Maviarab]

After the first scene with Pearl at the beginning of this update, I was actually hoping for another sister killing episode. MC did it once for a very similar reason, why are we now forced into forgiveness? Selena did what she did to protect her sister, Pearl did what she did to protect her sister. In both cases, Eliza's wellbeing was put in jeopardy. But we're now all about forgiveness? I just don't understand.

A little divergence and consistency would go a long way here. I know the updates aren't necessarily small and come out frequently, but I personally would accept waiting in order to get dialogue that doesn't go against every choice I've made in the past several updates.

The romance is fucking perfect between MC and Eliza..there are some flaws with the MC but i'm not going into it.

You have not really use a forge for some time... yes every part of it need maintenance.

The fire pit have wind tunnel you should keep it in good condition because it degrades in heat. it s needed to put iron a a melting temperature (1500 degrees...), you work iron at 1200-1300 degrees. without you can t up 800.

The anvil need maintenance too, you have a support so that it is at the right height than can to degrade over time and shocks, it becomes problematic if it is wobbly. you have also often grinding the flat part because of the crushed pieces of metal which sticks to the anvil which hinder good support, and to keep the flat part which serves as a reference when you form a piece.
Youtuber explan you few things yes, but when you use it for real, you understand that it's just the surface of things... This part was not strange for me...

That's all fine and dandy... but has nothing to do with what is portrayed in the game. Let's be clear on something here first: I didn't say that forges require no maintenance -- everything does -- but no blacksmith would ever claim that a forge is "acting up", that isn't a thing and makes no sense in this context. No one would ever refer to the anvil as part of the forge; no one would try to "fix the forge acting up" by doing something to the anvil. That makes zero sense, and I don't know who you're trying to fool by acting like it does. "The anvil is wobbly" is indeed a problem that needs fixing... alas, it's one that the blacksmith should trivially be able to fix themselves. Let's be honest, there is nothing about the workings of a medieval blacksmithing shop that the blacksmith himself should not be personally capable of fixing, unless they truly suck at their job. Maybe on a modern one, with powertools and gas-powered forges and whatever else, but not on a medieval one as present in the game.

Edit: missed a sentence.

Is it worth the download or do I have to deal with Kira?

 

[MixQQ]

i really really hope we will get threesome with Kira and Eliza in the future.. amazing update as always

 

[gadu2121]

clearly not a good update in terms of choice.
Eliza becomes a vampire? With all the warnings of behavior change etc I expected to have a choice to make for Eliza.Another way I do not know.
We all love Eliza here but if the Dev turned her into a slut or a tsundere like Kira....

But no... like for Pearl’s betrayal no choice here yet.



As said above this act "pirate" is disappointing.

Nooooooo....not my sweet adorable Pear!!!! *cries*

Ok..I'll check the update out then *grumbles in his helmet*

 

[ImperialD]

BuuPlays .... wtf ?????

this game is taking a 180 from what i was thinking ...

o.m.f.g .... BuuPlays what did you do ?????

i love this game and your freaking my shit out now

you couldn't just say "SURPRISE"

 

[Krytax123]

Not gonna lie, not the biggest fan of the pirate arc and Kira. And yeah Pearl's betrayal sucked and us not even being able to not forgive her (for a dark path at least) and yeah romance decisions could matter more and there could be more branching ... but its still a great avn.

I was able to forgive Pearl after seeing this, that was hilarious lol

 

[Giggling Raven]

Isnt that true for pretty much any other chick, particularly Eliza?
One can reject her over and over, yet those "romance her" options keep popping out every now and then and mc (and others around him) pretty much consider her as his GF.

That is true, but at least Eliza is likeable while Kira isn't. But not to be hypocritical, your point is 100% correct. It is extremely jarring that we can straight up murder Selena's sister but can't shake other girls off after 37 rejections. As much as I like Eliza, it isn't fair for those that don't that the game keeps putting the player through this rollercoaster dialogues and romance/friendly options if it's marketed as a story and choice driven experience. Choices here are pretty much meaningless.

For real, I really like Eliza and think she's adorable so I was really enjoying the story and romance, but after boarding the ship, it was all just downhill no matter what I chose because they aren't respected.

im sorry but im a bit confused i downloaded version 0.3.5 but the game ended when i reached the cave with kira and it says this is the end of version 0.3.3??? how do i get the update?

Sounds like you may be using the walkthrough mod...

If so, have to wait for the mod to be updated, never use an old mod for a new game update.

I believe the lack of romance choices mattering in the first act is plot related. While I do agree that Kira has been a rather lackluster experience, each of the core LI's will most likely get similar amounts of screentime to avoid unintentional biases later on in the story.

As for why Pearl can't be killed? It's most likely due to her character being more integral to the story than Selena's sister. Killing off important characters without proper justification is a pretty big blunder, and can quickly trap the writer into a corner later on in the plot (i.e. Needing to travel the ocean again without Kira and her pirates).

I'm most just speculating here, but the above defense seems the most plausible to me.

 

[Lordmoses711high]

Damn... That betrayal sucked big time... Especially if you are on a dark path....... We weren't even given a choice to Kill The Pirate King... Or even Punish Pearl for her part... Finally Rin makes an appearance.. Been looking forward to that.. Though, she won't like what my MC turned out to be.. A KILLER.

Edit: BuuPlays gave us a taste of death and now we want more of it...

 

[Krytax123]

Yeah i agree completly, i dont mind because i feel like Eliza was tailor-made for my tastes lol and she will always be my number one in this avn. But if someone is really not into her and their bond or plainly dislike her, i dont think this avn is enjoyable for said person at all.

Its just the most of us (me very much included) dont care because Eliza is adoringly awesome.

And yeah now we got a taste of it with the Kira experiences (for people like me who dont really like romancing her), i would have been fine with some kind of fuckbuddy dynamic i guess but the nephilim being super lovey-dovey with every woman he shares a bit of time with is kinda nonsensical to me and takes me out of it.

Like spend two weeks with Eliza, oohhh eliza is the love of my life i will do anything for her, 2 weeks later on sea while rescuing eliza: ohhhhh kira is the love of my life too lol. And conveniently none of the new women ask him about his relationship with the woman he goes on this suicide journey for and is so determined to safe her, no matter what.

But at least we always knew that the mc would get back to the main cast and were able to be looking forward to that, while the people not liking Eliza are just doomed here lol

 

[ename144]

I've been enjoying the story thus far, but I have to admit this update threw me for a loop. Maybe I just hate vampires too much to be rational here, but I cannot understand why the MC and Eliza would leap at the chance to turn her into one. Being crippled seems far preferable - especially if you've been on the light side thus far.

I also don't really understand the point of the 'lock in romance' choice. We've already been flirting with Kira automatically for ages now and we'll continue to flirt with her afterwards even if we decline the lock. It doesn't preclude pursuing other LIs either, so why bother? It seems like we should have had this option an update or two earlier (and severely toned down the innuendo if we declined), or we should stick with the base system where each major scene gives us an opt out and leave it at that.

It was nice to see the story progress and there was a surprising amount of content here, so I don't want to give the impression this was a bad update. But I'm definitely less interested in game now than I was yesterday.
