is there some intelligence-increasing measure hidden in New Canisian, or are you screwed (at least for now, in this version) if you help the guy in the Bangville Libary "reach the shelf" early in the game? Because I'm stuck at 80% or so, where the remainder is coincidentally exactly how much is knocked off if you accept his request. I've done everything from the Cheerful and Bleak events to consuming the reversed-effect Bimbo Potion, and I still can't get the special Bleak or Frieda Heart Branches, or the couples scene in the cottage.

And are things like Violent Blood and the Snow Crown just trophy items, or will there be some use for them later down the line? If there's anything, it's not in the crafting area, it appears.
You are definitely missing more intelligence gains than you think. Crafting is based on intelligence and both of those items are crafted into other things at The Pounding Anvil. Also intelligence losses in the intro don't actually count; after you do the Bleak Tale, your intelligence and corruption are reset and then you are awarded some based on how much stuff you explored/interacted with in the intro, whatever the results may have been.

I mean, I know there were more of them. Those were just a few examples. I've also read every book in the Hoodton library, the dude with the potion in the Hoodton tavern, the drinking contest, and otherwise talked to every NPC I can think of, including but not limited to: Restoring Canisian forest, learning Stomachcutter, resealing the unstable portal, etc. There's only one event missing in the recollection room. There are only a few events I have encountered that I couldn't fulfill

Tried the Anvil and I got something like five items out of it, so that works. Everything but Bloody Cloth, so that's promising. Tried interacting with the bookshelves in the Crucible, still nothing for intelligence.

Edit: This may be just on my end, since I'm still running 4.3, and 4.4 is apparently out.
Edit 2: But I didn't get very far in the intro without getting saved by Hood, so maybe that's it.
Edit 3: Added a picture of the Int/Corruption Bars. Very little Int left to fill.

Any idea of how to edit AP?
Grab the "MV Save File Editor" from "Rpg Maker Editors.zip" and open in your favorite text editor. Probably be in there somewhere. Or you could just cheat yourself a bunch of Heart Branches to bring to Brunhilde if you've gotten that quest.

LOL, there's a guy in reviews calling himself a fan of Sierra and complaining about the lack of CGs at the same time, hilarious. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:
Little did he knew that her magnum opus (TLS) had no CGs whatsoever until 2 or 3 last months. And all her other works have roughly similar ratio of CGs to gameplay.

Noxian Nights and Desecration of Wings have way better ratio. I don't count TLS cause it started out without any CGs at all. But even TLS has WAY more sex scene to gameplay ratio that this. Doesn't matter that it's text only.

Lol OK, if porn to gameplay ratio matters that much to you, just download a CG folder and don't waste time playing a game at all. It's like rating a normal games based on number of "You Win" screens to gameplay ratio, lol.

To me it matter as much as one star out of five. All other things being equal one would get 4 stars and one would get 5 stars.
But that's not the only thing I write in my review.

I haven't played it yet, i prefer to wait until game gets completed before playing, TLS is exception, but i will play this one right now and try to understand why you gave 3 out of 5 stars.

OK, figured it out. You are like Ingrid from prologue, a corrupted slut with a twisted sense of morality. That means you won't get the point of this game and all the punchlines inside it, because they are about people like you.
And to make it simple enough for you: Karens don't laugh at jokes about Karens.

Eh , that just a lot of words for "it's too deep for you".

Jeez dude, I disagree with GuyInDogSuit review (especially as it is incredibly unfair to all the f95 reviews judge a game before it's complete, but that what you get for getting the bootleg copy) However there is no need to get so insulting to others. Having different opinions is fine.

Insulting? Wha? How?
Damn, kids these days are so sensitive, one little cheeky reply is like a knife stab to them.:(

Forget insulting - was he wrong though? Mr. Tentacles seems to completely miss the point and think the corruption meter is about measuring sexual humiliations rather than how much Ingrid resists being defined by her predestined nature and does things on her own terms. Yeah, she had to fuck somebody she didn't want to, like, once - but she didn't let it get her down and think of herself as wrong and bad and skanky for doing what she had to do.

I'm going to own up to it. I completely derped out reading the names.
Tentacles had negative feelings of OEA
GuyInDogSuit had negative feelings for SL herself.
While I don't agree with either, I felt like saying to Tentacles " You are like Ingrid from prologue, a corrupted slut with a twisted sense of morality" was a little rude for someone having a differing opinion. Slaanesh Champion I was not trying to act insulted or self righteous, I just thought it was a little harsh bro. You can disagree with someone's opinon, but there is no reason to level insults against the person themselves.

Which gets into the second matter GuyInDogSuit who disagreed with SL for working on a second project before finishing TLS. Which I don't agree with. It is not as if TLS has been neglected or left behind. It has been updating regularly and is over 80 hours long. There is nothing wrong with working on multiple projects at once.
