Principal Brown says "Unknown"

I'm not so certain that those "None"s can't be changed as the story progresses and new information emerges. "None" could simply mean that few people (if any) are aware the person has an ability. In Principal Brown's case, it could be public knowledge that he does have an ability but he has not demonstrated or disclosed the details of it. After all, there are several people convinced that Riley is - in fact - Ghostraven (including you yourself I believe ) . So if that ends up being true, then Riley's bio will probably change to reflect that.

It could also be that the bio cards are filled out from MCs perspective. All of the characters that have a listed ability have had their abilities shown or explained in a scene at some point or another. Riley, Parker, and Arwen have "none" because he truly believes they have no abilities. He knows Brown does, but he doesn't know what it is.

I think if Arwen secretly had an ability to scry people's histories (or maybe those of blood relatives specifically), it could be fitting for her as a singer/songwriter since she can use those visions as a muse. It could simply be something that only Anna knows about, and but never disclosed it for a personal reason.

leave us with wanting more

I wish this had a 4month cycle instead of 5 to 6 cycle.

I want the next part!!!!!!

 

[Alex5280]

So about the Ch7 ending. Do you think it was:

1) A mutation of Evelyn's power

- or -

2) Arwen's power

I think you can rule out it being Arwen's power. That scene at the end still happens even if you don't get the scene with Arwen and Anna.

 

[freddygonzo]

...

Some profiles start with Unknown and switch to either a mutation ability or None during the MC's dialogues.

Marina: Unknown -> C4: her ability
mar "I can tell what everyone's greatest sexual fantasies are."
mc "Oh..."
$ marina_prof2_unlock = True
$ renpy.notify('Character Profile Updated')

Ross: Unknown -> C5: None
mrs "A normie. I hate that expression."
mrs "You know I'm one too right?"
$ mrsross_prof2_unlock = True
$ renpy.notify('Character Profile Updated')
mc "I didn't. I mean, I had assumed, but there was part of me that thought you kept your power secret."
mc "Were you successfully vaccinated then?"
mrs "Yes, I was."

Similiar are Evelyn's and Riley's profiles updated on Eve's age change (C6) and Riley's bartender->dancer occupation (C1FR or C3).

I can't remember anything about Arwen's past either anymore if there was a power of her mentioned. It doesn't take a special power to become a rockstar.

Following profiles that are currently still missing:
Blackwitch
Elizabeth
Naveen (the guy in C6 with his analyzing ability)
Scarlet Shadow

As only Parker, Riley, Evelyn, and Amber besides all Sisterhood superhero members have the Love- instead of Fuck-icon in their profiles, it can be assumed that no one really needs to worry so much about treating someone like Lucia badly either. Anyone else are simply fucktoys for the MC.

2) Arwen's power

There's also the possibility of it being someone else using their power on the MC.

2) Arwen's power

Honestly, the pc has been sleeping around so much it is hard to say if it is just an interaction of powers stacking. I also think it may be the host's own power or some device trying to leave a warning or something for the MC. Also keep in mind, we got a time traveling tiger within the first few chapters. I am still waiting on Ruth or a wolverine like power so he can finally stop being brused all the time.

Also bring back the wolves. They are adorbs.

Just finished the update (with both Isabella path & Anna + Arwen path).

I enjoyed it quite a bit.
In terms of main story itself (i.e. MC's actual storylines with the Sisterhood & mystery about how MC got his empath powers), there wasn't that much progression.
Having said that, there were quite a bit of side stories which I thought were quite engaging as well as collecting them powers which are always fun;

- Mrs Ross's niece Meredith I thought was a pretty engaging character in terms of her personality and looks. Her power age deceleration while I do kinda agree may not be as useful as other more OP abilities, you never know how it may be useful (so yoink! )
- Lucia's events with Sapphire were not too shabby also. While I wouldn't say them two are my favorite LIs (my current 2 favorites are Ghostraven & Lady Steel) their scenes were hot.
- Same could be said of Anna & Arwen in their route. Good interactions between characters and pretty good reasoning was used to link Anna's plotline with Sisterhood.

One thing that I'm gonna be looking forward to will be Lady Steel's match with her opponent the following day.
Jacquesdor how many more updates can we expect Lady Steel to be the forefront out of all the Sisterhood?

Initially the main LI from Sisterhood we interacted the most was Moonsong, for 3 updates or so (though I could be somewhat off with the numbers, given I didn't literally count lol) then shift was moved towards Lady Steel.
Ruth as a character has done a phenomenal job so far, and this is by no way me rushing you to change to the next one (until you feel it's absolutely the right time).
But it does have me curious as to when transition to next Sisterhood member arc will take place.


If there are any critiques, I have 2;

1) Zero new content for Isabella branch players
Couple of updates ago, story went through a branch (though not the first); with MC picking either Isabella herself or projection of Anna (movie star).
Picking Anna projection allowed MC for extra dialogue with Anna & Arwen in that said path in one of the previous updates when MC meets them for the first time.
There's also one really chunky event with this most recent update with MC, Evelyn, Anna, & Arwen which further develops their relationship.

Whereas for those who picked the Isabella option, well there has been..... nothing.
No new lines, arcs for players who chose her.

Granted, I have saves for both routes each named "Isabella" "Anna and Arwen" but ngl, I hope you keeps track & soon enough there's event/s & content for Isabella route, evening things out.
Cause otherwise, there doesn't really seem to be much of an incentive for players to pick Isabella's route currently.


2) Referencing other games.
I'm someone who when it comes to references or crossover (from other AVNs), prefers things to be very, very subtle. I'm not a fan of frequent referencing or fan service being constantly thrown.
Cause I feel doing so just feels like a distraction and moreso detracts from the experience than adds to it.

Now going into this current update, I felt for some reason this update just contained several referencing of other AVNs either explicitly (literal name dropping) or implicitly (describing the game).
3 or more AVNs get referenced with that watching movies with Lady Steel scene (Eternum, Come Home, Desert Stalker at least), and Chasing Sunsets get frequently mentioned by Anna in her & Arwen's event.

Desert Stalker, I love, and Eternum I do like.
Yet I haven't played Come Home & Chasing Sunsets I wasn't a huge fan of it towards later game.
But regardless of whether I liked the said AVN or not (or whether I played it or not), all these talks about other games, I'm sorry to say, they all just felt like...... distractions.

Jacquesdor, was this done because there was an agreement between you and other devs of those games? Like cross promotion (them agreeing to promote your game within their games and you agreeing to do the same)?
If so, it is what it is, and there's nothing more I can say about that.

But if not, and this was done solely because you're fan of those games, well perhaps I'm in the minority with this (different strokes for different folks I guess) but I hope you ease up on the references with future updates.
Cause for me, they felt a bit too much in this update (and being brutally honest? I'd much rather just focus on your game's storyline than get even a bit distracted by references to other games).


Having said the above, this game still remains the best Superhero AVN in my eyes.
And I'll be looking forward to the next update;
Match between Lady Steel and her opponent, I have a feeling it's gonna be a banger.

 

[JJJ84]

- or -

2) Arwen's power

Well, Arwen, according to the Codex is a normie like Parker, Riley, Mrs Ross. So unless we can on longer trust in the validity of the codex anymore (though there was no reason to doubt it until now, but who knows), I doubt it's from her.

My guess is it's probably something like MC's own powers evolving Evelyn's powers to higher level to make him go into many years in the past.

Isabella is not forgotten. The results of choosing her will show up in a future update.

I think someone mentioned that once a person mentions their power or any info is mentioned about said person the codex updates.
So Arwen hasn't mentioned if she has powers so till said time its kept as none.

But then again i could have read what they wrote wrong.

 

[UnoriginalUserName]

- Mrs Ross's niece Meredith I thought was a pretty engaging character in terms of her personality and looks. Her power age deceleration while I do kinda agree may not be as useful as other more OP abilities, you never know how it may be useful (so yoink! )

Yeah, uh, about that. I think you may have missed the required part of her power. How do you feel about swallowing cum?

 

[JJJ84]

Yeah, uh, about that. I think you may have missed the required part of her power. How do you feel about swallowing cum?

Took a look at the scene afterwards (that talk with Ruth MC has), and you are right I had missed that.
Well, I guess I can scratch that off the list

 

[Reniere]

Yeah, uh, about that. I think you may have missed the required part of her power. How do you feel about swallowing cum?

I mean...... Does female cum count ?
Doesn't her power also make other body parts feel like "pussy" ? maybe it will make Mc's body parts feel like his penis ?

 

[e6mill]

I mean...... Does female cum count ?

If so, I can envision it helping offset the drawback of Lucia's power.

 

[JJJ84]

That's what I was initially questioning too, given Meredith the individual with age deceleration swallows cum to retain youth, perhaps with MC's case, he has to swallow female ejaculation (or squirting) to be able to get the benefits of age deceleration power (and not swallowing male cum).

But even if that's the case, it seems with MC's interaction with Ruth after his sex with Meredith, he seems to dismiss it saying "I have to swallow cum, so it's a useless power." and dismissing it altogether.
So it could be MC could just swallow female ejaculation/squirts for all we know (or don't know).
Yet, given MC seems dismissive of the power, I'd say it's highly unlikely that this power will come into play compared to others, due to this requirement.

If so, I can envision it helping offset the drawback of Lucia's power.

Huh, that is actually a good point, especially given Lucia's power's drawback is that power cutting on the user's lifespan.
Interesting......

There would need to be something which measures/scan MC to state how old his actual body is to clarify this though.
I suppose Moonsong can come up with something, with MC thinking the ability is useless being surprised that he's aging pretty much normally despite using Lucia's power (due to Meredith's power offsetting it).

 

[Reniere]

If so, I can envision it helping offset the drawback of Lucia's power.

Oh shit yea i completely forgot about Lucia's power side affect.
So yea that 100% will offset but drinking female sexual fluids will be a monthly ? or yearly thing unless the drawback of her power is everyday to weekly sex

Her power age deceleration while I do kinda agree may not be as useful as other more OP abilities, you never know how it may be useful (so yoink! ) uh, never mind. totally slipped my mind that MC has to swallow cum
- Lucia's events with Sapphire were not too shabby also. While I wouldn't say them two are my favorite LIs (my current 2 favorites are Ghostraven & Lady Steel) their scenes were hot.

I think there were at least two more, one was pretty blatant (but only if you played).

Yeah, uh, about that. I think you may have missed the required part of her power. How do you feel about swallowing cum?

Interestingly, the MC says this, but at the same time we saw possible evidence of an evolution of one of the adopted powers (apparently you get the final scene regardless of whether you engage with arwen (& anna) or not, so even if she has a power, either that's not it or there's a flaw that needs fixing). So if that's true, maybe the requirement will change for MC ... maybe he'll have to start drinking the squirters to take advantage ... plus his power seems to make him god's gift once people get a whiff of him. The rest of her power set seems like it could make that even more of an unfair advantage.

EDIT:

That's what I was initially questioning too, given Meredith the individual with age deceleration swallows cum to retain youth, perhaps with MC's case, he has to swallow female ejaculation (or squirting) to be able to get the benefits of age deceleration power (and not swallowing male cum).

I did have a unique take, but still ...

 

[Reniere]

That's what I was initially questioning too, given Meredith the individual with age deceleration swallows cum to retain youth, perhaps with MC's case, he has to swallow female ejaculation (or squirting) to be able to get the benefits of age deceleration power (and not swallowing male cum).

I think MC just dismissing it has to do with the fact he doesn't even understand the powers he takes and doesn't even think about how they would change towards him. I would think every power that is female based once he gains them. They alter to his body or change to match the Male body.

Lets say (Hopefully there isn't a power where a female can make her clit bigger) it would change to match Mc's body can he can make himself bigger.

Now MC mentioned that Meredith Boobjob felt like he was fucking a pussy so did her mouth but not her ass ( because she still had not learned how to do it yet) Would MC be able to make his fingers and tongue feel like his penis ?
if that is a side-affect of her power.

Would MC get that same side-affect but the male version ?
