I've been wanting to play this game for awhile now, but don't have much free time anymore, sadly. So I can't really spend time reloading on the same run over and over again. Could someone explain to me how the "routes" in this game work?

Is it see all the girls content in a single play-through, but pick who you like in the end? Should I focus on one girl per play-through?
Or is it a bit of a mix? Also, are certain "backgrounds" better for certain girls or are they mostly for flavor?

Thanks in advance and apologies if this question is a bit annoying, I tried searching but didn't really get a clear answer.

If you're going to go through it once, yeah, I would recommend just saying yes to a lot of the girls. You'll see the majority of the scenes that way (up to a yet to be reached point where something has to give), and for the most part you won't be penalized.

So far there aren't really distinct paths. There is one decision that lets you commit into a full relationship with one of the LIs, but you right now that only excludes you from additional content (at least if you take it seriously, you can immediately go and cheat on her if you want). If you don't commit, you still get all the content with her and with the other girls if you took the right decisions.

There are however a few decisions along the way that have scenes that exclude each other, but those are only a handful here and there.

Let me strongly disagree.

You have two very different paths for Rosalind. Three different paths for Mina. Two different paths for Felicia (still without consequences, but we will see the difference in the next update, I guess). Three different paths for Hana. Two different paths for Veronica (maybe). Let alone key decisions you make here and there that have a major impact on almost everything.

I agree with you on this! In case of Rosi, it is more 3 paths, even if two are more on the same side than the other one. While so far the decisions you made had "only middling" impact, it adds up in the background and will hit sooner or later full force!
There are several key decisions which already paved certain paths and practically closed off others.

if you dont mind could you give some insight on the paths I might of missed for Hana and Mina. I only did one playthrough. Only ones I can think of off the top of my head are. Hana : GF, friend with benefits third path no idea. Mina : casual sex / fuck buddies , assuming 1 path is to keep her and Ian together and third I have no clue

His question was if he misses a lot of content in only one playthrough, not if the nuances of the story change. And as of now it doesn't much.

I don't really care about most paths except Mina and Hana. (Also Rosalind too, such a sweet sexy MILF)
Just give me a Mina & Hana poly/throuple path so I can die happy, kek. :love:

Or don't... I'll just go drink my sorrows away while watching reruns of Seinfeld and Friends. :cry:

I was expecting this last week, but we got the new dev diary this week instead!
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
From these numbers it looks like our devs created 389 statics, 2 animations and 5693 words over the intervening 20 day period. That's an average of ~136 statics, 0.7 animations and 1993 words per week. Overall, TD and the GIL are averaging 117 statics, 2.5 animations and 2710 words per week since work on Chapter 4 Update 4 began. Here are the charts for Week 6:

Things seem to be proceeding at a fairly normal pace, heavier on statics than animations in the early going. If my guess that the first 'something' TD mentioned is the infamous MC/Ian/Rosalind threesome, I expect animations will go way up in the near future; we'll have to keep an eye on that.

Not sure what the complication with Felicia's date will be, though I'm sure a lot of people are hoping it involves Mina. ;) Regardless of what these surpises wind up being, I'm definitely looking forward to the update as ordered!

My guess would be Hanna if on the GF path but Mina might make more sense

An earlier teaser seemed to imply that Hanna will ask for Mina's phone number in the next patch, but I doubt that somehow moves immediately towards a threesome.

So yeah, maybe Mina finds out, that seeing the MC fuck someone else kinda bothers her after all? Or she will just join...we'll see. :KEK:

i had a very long comment expressing my adoration for this vn and some of the decissions made but as i was checking for grammar i accidentaly pressed ctrl + w wich sended the last hour right down the bin.

So for now i will have to summarize it like this:

I got really hooked to the story.

It has a really good volume of porn and so far strikes a good balance between "normal" porn and more BDSM oriented things.

I loved how Hana and Mina were done both because i really enjoyed their characters and because their a great example of good build up + pay off in a porn game. And both of them were the main lure that draw me to PC

I like that the game focusses less on thoughness and more decissions and the relationship between characters

It made me tear up at one moment.

Im really looking foward to the future of Pale Carnations.


now if you excuse im gonna go to a corner and cry for my lost longpost

ps: i really should get a good hana signature now that i think about it.
