Is this like multiple protagonists, following all the LI's, or is it mainly focused on CJ and his view of things?
Each LI gets to be the main focus during their respective arcs. But overall, CJ and Jamie have the most amount of scenes by far.

Also, I am liking Leah but I'm at the part where it is suggesting she is in love with Victoria... Like she will also fall in love with CJ right? or is it like she is just there for Vic and is straight lesbian? Eh I guess I should just read and find out but want to prepare my expectations lol
Yes, she will grow to love CJ as much as she does Vic.

Cool thanks for the response. It isn't too big of a deal with Leah but I was curious. I just didn't want to spoil her story too much by looking through the posts.

Thanks for the answers

Gallery is split. Some saves won't work depending on which part you're playing. Having to close the game and open up a different one when playing. Fuck all that.

Hi, does anybody know where I can find the save data for the game in my Unity folder? Trying to do a fresh save after a few years away, but I've still got lingering saves and gallery images and I'd like to clear them out. Not seeing anything related to Story Anon in the LocalLow folder, so I'm a bit lost rn.

Out of Touch! [v3.51.2] [Story Anon] - Compressed

If you want future versions compressed, please ask here: Game Compression Requests 3.0
And make sure to remind me that I did it before, usually I don't try Unity games because 99% are non-compressible (or max compressed by packing with LZMA2 and 7z)

That's because you're actually looking for Lightning Rooster Productions. I've only been here since November-ish of 2023, so I don't know if there's anything more to the joke besides the obvious (Chad "ThunderCock" Junior = "Lightning Rooster"). But regardless, that's where you want to look.

If anyone else wants to access the saves and is unfamiliar with how Unity stores them, here's a step-by-step guide to finding this folder and other games, such as Ren'Py games.

First, make sure hidden files is turned on. You can do this by typing in "hidden" in your windows search bar, and it should bring you directly to the option to turn it on. Your mileage may vary depending on which version of windows you have.

Next, navigate to the Unity saves folder. This is usually in the C drive unless you've installed your OS somewhere else. In which case you probably don't need this guide. Anyways, the file path is C:\Users\"your username here"\AppData\LocalLow for Unity. (If you want Ren'Py, such as for StoryAnon's other game, Tropicali, you'll want to go to the Roaming folder instead of LocalLow, then RenPy.) All your saves should be there.

Now you can backup your files or delete them as needed.

Or you can just press button in game to open save folder. Or if it doesn't work (for example you're using platform where it's not implemented) - you can go to help menu and copy path from there. Also it's not where Unity stores saves, unity itself doesn't story anything. It's just recommended path to use for storing saves by developers (accessed with UnityEngine.Application.persistentDataPath), save system must be implemented by developers themselves. We don't use standard location on Android for example because it's hard to access for average user, instead we use out own path where we store assets and saves.

So question about the last chapter... Hopefully a well worded one.

So on the train when CJ was changing appearance; was that happening because that is what each goddess sees him as, was it more as a way of showing they see what they want to or something? I know that a few of the girls had described him as American, maybe they just described him as white but I think it was along the lines of "as American as it gets" or something when one of the girls was wondering about CJ's parents and Stacey being Japanese. Plus Leah commented on his rosy blonde hair.

Like the girls (shards) see him as the player does correct?

Point being, to me it came off as this is what the girls see him as in order to get them to fall for them, but I mainly assumed it was more the goddess' and not Victoria, Leah, or Teresa themselves. Like the goddess' see what they want. The last chapter just got me wondering if anyone anyone actually loves CJ or they are just shown what attracts them and are made to have feelings for him... which CJ probably feels the same lol I mean Leah seemed to at least fall for his actions (even if Carpo had initially lit the spark which IDK if she did or not) and same with the other girls... though Ashley was all over him early on...

So I guess I am just curious what the significance of his appearance changes and if I at least got close to the mark.

I don't know if I'm right or not but what I understood was this:

As far as I know everyone sees him as we see him. I think that whole sequence is just to show a physical representation of how easy it is for the goddesses to change and mold CJ's mind depending on their desires, and the crisis of identity that CJ is suffering because of that.

You mention that CJ got leah to love him because of his actions, but now we know that he took said actions because it was what leah (and by association carpo) wanted, since both share personalities and likes. That's why CJ says things like "I will make your dreams come true" or why he have no problem acting like her servant, since that's what she likes. Or why he has emotional necessities that teresa (or auxo) is just perfect to fill, or why he is so accepting of anything Vicky does regardless of how messed up it is. That's where this whole crisis of identity comes from, now he doesn't know which thoughts are truly his and which ones are the ones they put in his head.

For what i got the goddesses cannot affect his actions directly, otherwise he would have never arrived at the cemetery since they didn't want him there, but they are the ones who control his mind, and if they can make him think like they want, then they can make him act base on those thoughts.

For example: If one day carpo/leah suddenly developed an interest in fucking CJ with a strap-on, she would start to mess with his mind, changing his values so that he out of nowhere is now interested too regardless of how out of character that is for him, because at the end of the day he is what they want him to be, thinks like they want him to, and says what they wish to hear.

That's why all the girl love him, he is everything they could ever want, because he is literally what they want.

Yeah I kind of saw it as a manifestation of his crisis of identity. Like I said, I was left wondering if they loved CJ because who he is, like who he is without the goddess' intervention or do they love him because he was molded by the goddess's to be desirable? but who even is he without their intervention? Though, while Jaime might not be my fav LI for CJ, her feelings are at least real probably ( kind of the point of the end of the chapter I know)

But I guess I got that from these also...

Like I got the crisis of identity but I was curious if the appearance change was literal.

Got to admit that makes me a bit depressed lol spend 50 chapters getting invested in some of the relationships and see characters fall for each other, only to then see that it could all be a lie. Like I thought Carpo at least might have put the idea in Leah's head to focus on CJ so I during her arc I was wondering if her feelings were truly hers. But even before that there seemed to be something there, So it seemed like she fell for CJ on her own and that was that. I honestly really got into their story and interactions so it sucks to now learn that the CJ she fell for might not be real and neither are those feelings lol. Guess I liked the idea of rescuing a princess from a gilded cage and offering the world to her, and her willing to burn the world burn for you lol

I'm used to stories having a low point, where the heroes feel like all hope is lost, but this hit harder emotionally lol Hard not to feel bad for CJ, Sarah, Kieran, and even Cro. They are all in the same boat. I mean, hell all of them are in the same boat I guess. There's that low point I suppose.

Been awhile since I read a VN that I got emotionally invested in and I'm really into CJ, Leah, Victoria, Sarah, Misaki/Kieran, and Cro so sucks to think some of them might fall out of love lol but there are 49 chapters left so doubt things end for them there.

It would suck not to know if someone really loves you... though I suppose that has always been the case with the rings and being soul bonded.


I think I mainly vented/thought out loud on that lol so sorry if I repeated back anything you said but thanks for your input. Got me thinking a bit more

Imo you both got fooled by granddaddy.

He believes it works like that but its strongly indicated that he's wrong again (like the first time). He is really good at getting information but he's too biased and set in his way to come to the right conclusions or simply lacks some facts to come to the right conclusions.

CJ is not a puppet created by the goddesses to fulfull their dreams and wishes imo, if at all its the other way around. The old CJ/Glory created all this (maybe even including the Goddesses) and new CJ. It was his plan/design, not theirs.

Otherwise the intro would be kinda nonsensical imo but there is a lot open to interpretation.

I mean, you are kinda wrong, but for the "wrong" reasons. It is true that at the moment this entire problem may be a plan of original CJ (Glory), and that he actually planned for the four to kill Jacob, create an imaginary replacement made out of their desires, preferences and fetishes, put that imaginary being in a human body and gave him dead jacob's shard of himself. But even if all of this is true and is all his plan, that still makes CJ a creation that at the moment is being controlled by the 4.

Glory could have planed that they would make CJ, but that doesn't mean that CJ is free or in control right now. He may be in the future when glory's plan comes about but until then CJ is still a toy of the four. For example: If i had a plan to make me rich, that doesn't mean that I am rich and that I can buy everything I want right now, I may be rich in the future once my plan succeeds but until then I am dead poor. Same with CJ, until whatever glory planned for him happens, he is a toy of the four, regardless of if this whole scenario is for him.

Even if glory created the four, it was the four who created CJ, that is this whole arcs plot. And you can't just say that because glory may have planned this or may have created the goddesses he is CJ's creator, that's like saying that my grampa is actually my father, since he made my father, or like saying that if I created something new that new thing would actually be my father's creation, since he made me. You are stretching the correlations too much.

How is it stretching the correlations in case of CJ possibly literally being the god of creation lol

If he created the goddesses (including their wishes/fetishes/whatever) to fulfill his needs/desires, they are hardly to blame for being like that and for wanting a CJ who is able to fulfill these needs and desires. Its his grand design and plan which created all that.

Indeed CJ is not in control of the machinations at the moment but i get the feeling more and more that it is indeed part of his plan that he is NOT in control. Having full control of everything makes you responsible for everything happening too after all.

We see snippets of this when CJ is in this empty room and moving the camera towards strange angles, being overwhelmed and confused about the possibilitys, that a CJ with full control and i think he doesnt want it. The goddesses are less players who control him and more like forces of nature (created by him for their purpose).

The goddesses could have been meant to be a split of his power/control in the first place like decentralizing the proccess of creation and destruction lol

I dont think this is a story about the protagonist being eager to be "in control" it seems more like the opposite.

And your example doesnt really work out, its closer to timetravel where a past or future version of yourself made a decision for your present you.

You kinda sound like you spent way to much time with jamie's grandpa and take all of his theories by word while they ALWAYS were wrong/flawed/the wrong conclusion.
