A fresh playthrough is STRONGLY recommended in v0.5.9!
As many of you know by being members over on the discord, Nephilim is undergoing a full re-polish of chapter 1-6.

The re-polish features are as follows:
342 entirely new renders and 12 animations added and scattered throughout chapters 1-5.
Thousands upon thousands of new and re-worked dialogues, this includes more in-depth lore and background information, and immersion dialogue.
Countless of old renders have been redone for higher quality and 15+ old animations have been redone from 30 to 60fps with better motion quality as well.

Skill-system revamp:
Now Nephilim feature a more diverse skill system and many choices throughout chapters 1-6 have been adjusted to accommodate this new system.
You will have the option to gain a lot more points throughout the first 6 chapters now, and plenty of skill-check situations have been added as well to make use of these skill points.

The obtainable skills and total points are as follows:
Social skills, Leadership(23), Charisma(22), Persuasion(16) and Intimidation(16).
Physical skills, Strength(2), Wisdom(0) and Stealth(2).

On top of the skill system, the Harem path has now been put to more use, with several scenes now having a bit of unique dialogue depending if you're on or off the Harem path.

Characters:
You will even encounter new characters throughout chapters 1-5 as well now, even returning faces if you have chosen to spare them, giving much needed depth and outcomes of certain choices (Especially Irene & Selena!)
These new & returning characters include... Shane & Maya (Flynn & Sabrina's parents), Irene, Assassins from Society of Shadows, Rin, Gibson, Asta (Gibson's daughter), Alana, Oren & Ellen, Eliza and several others!

As you can see this is an insane amount of content and that is not even taking into consideration the v0.5.9 content itself which is 918 renders ongoing from v0.5.8, that means with the chapter 1-6 re-polish on top, this is easily the largest and most content filled update Nephilim has ever seen, and likely will ever see.
I have done a full replay of chapters 1-6 myself to ensure everything is how I want it to be and flows naturally, and I'm pleased with the result.

Pheew, that was a lot of information, I better get back to work... but before I do, one last piece of information:
in v0.5.9 a fresh playthrough is STRONGLY advised by me, the dev.
I have tested and your v0.5.8 saves should work even if you just want to continue from v0.5.8, however with this amount of new content to the early-mid game, you will be missing out on a lot of skill points and a chunky-chunk of in-game lore and character developments if you do not start fresh, whether you care about those things is up to you as a player.
~Buu✌

Oh ffs, I literally JUST started a fresh playthrough again to refresh my memory, and now this...

So you are saying that the people who was "totally loving" the island arc in the forum will have the opportunity to play and enjoy it all over again!? OMG! It's so great for them!

wow Buu actually pulled off an AVN "remake" in only one development cycle? if it's true they're a legend among AVN devs 90% of the time it feels like "remake" is either the death of an AVN or we have to wait months to years for remake to catch up to where story was left off lol

Well, that explains why the update seems to have been delayed a bit. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Buu had actually been working on this for a while.

Oh how i missed skills and skill checks...in a linear game, where the only choices for a long time are 'you wanna tap dat ass' yes/no....i'm sure it will be great, like the island arc...
Also, does that mean if i go for 0 Charisma, that all those walking onaholes...i mean, tribal girls, will leave me alone and i don't have to listen to a idiot MC drooling after every hole around 90% of the time

it could be that the MC will still be drooling 90% of the time ,but only when its time to act you'll fail

 

[jadepaladin]

Whole bunch of renders saved up until March, just so he could work on revamping the early story. So I'm guessing these stored future renders will reference and include stuff that he's recently added with the revamp?

Would be funny to see the extra scenes of the parents and stuff only for them to magically disappear from the story post 5.9 because we're working with his backlog of scenes.

 

[Raziel_8]

Don't be so cruel...just let them ignore the MC. I imagine my MC on a island full of women, who didn't see a man in 20 years, they give the MC a cold glare and go to their stone dildos and the MC can focus on the mission

perhaps a few off the more side chicks for the island it will be possible ,but im sure most off them will still be there with their already avoidable lewd scene's...

honestly i find skills checks and point systems cumbersome and annoying,if i wanted a game like that i'd go for those sandboxes where you have to repeat the same thing 5x to earn "affection" to unlock the next "event" then rinse and repeat ... *sigh* so much time filler/fluff...

Don't glaze him too hard. The "remake" was probably taken from another AVN

Why are there DIK/Chick points in my Nephilim?

 

[Raziel_8]

Why are there DIK/Chick points in my Nephilim?

Oh, yes. Next on the list, our MC needs to solve the ''incredible'' mysterium of the princess debt, her father left her...oh joy, i can already feel the IQ dropping to room temperature

honestly i find skills checks and point systems cumbersome and annoying,if i wanted a game like that i'd go for those sandboxes where you have to repeat the same thing 5x to earn "affection" to unlock the next "event" then rinse and repeat ... *sigh* so much time filler/fluff...

Those thinks can be useful, if you have game which supports them, like a rpgm where you have kingdom management or something like that. But in a almost kinetic game...yeah, utterly pointless. That's why i hate 99% of sandbox games, it just wastes your time and makes the playing tedious and annoying,

yep like i said if i wanted that i'd play a game like that.
welp i'm sure Knox_ will adjust the multi-mod accordingly.

"The obtainable skills and total points are as follows:
Social skills, Leadership(23), Charisma(22), Persuasion(16) and Intimidation(16).
Physical skills, Strength(2), Wisdom(0) and Stealth(2). "

watch me go 99999 on all

Don't worry, you'll still lose fights against female character so nothing will change.

Wisdom (0) basically explains the entire story.

I'll happily lose against Diana everyday, she can step on me anytime

Well, that explains why the update seems to have been delayed a bit. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Buu had actually been working on this for a while.

Back in July (I think), Buu mentioned had all the monthly updates ready out through March 2026. He's actually way far ahead in terms of development compared to what is currently releasing, so he has the flexibility to do things like a rework without delaying releases.

So he is adding a harem path or is this just for certain girls

Harem path has always been there, but it wasn't acknowledged much by characters in game. Sounds like he's added some dialogue variations to reflect that though.

Don't worry, you'll still lose fights against female character so nothing will change.

The implication being that MC should win against a female character by default?

If that's what you want, I have bad news about the power level of MC compared to many women he's already met (like Lucid and all 3 goddesses), and quite a few teased ones coming up (archdevils, the original vampires, etc).

When Buu shared this power level chart 2 months ago, his comment was that MC was about an 8 on the scale at present.

There's quite a few female characters that could crush MC while barely batting an eye.
