I do not know the exact number of Dev diaries we had so far, but if your question means when the diary will be here in the forum, it won´t take long. We always get them from Seniorperv, with statistics provided by ename144.Dev Diary 99??

Here:Dev Diary 99??
i am not saying that they should ALL get an alternate way outIt probably would make this game quite boring and predictable if they got out scot-free on every path.
Very Good ArgumentWhen our strong willed heroines face their challenges it's okay to suffer a little as well. But maybe it's you who needs an easy out more than they do, eh?![]()
^ as mentioned hereI expect some bad endings because the inspiration for PL are Sei Shoujo works, Bible Black, Discipline, Starless... there are some dark shit in those works. But so far PL is not as extreme as some of those, so I'm pretty sure snuff is off the table.
I am not entirely sure who tried min maxxing Veronica route but i do distinctively remember them mentioning that it was still possible to go to on a date with her even if the MC had cummed on her face before in week 1only once did I get enough points to invite Veronica after an exhibition despite playing a nice Edwin who wants to help the three carnations.
And that one time was with specifically playing towards these points, making some decisions I would not choose otherwise.
well as a Veronica fan i hate to admit itWho do you think would be most rational choice for Edwin's long time partner?
every LI in this game except for rose is either bisexual or has had some kind of fling in the past with womenVeronica - the worst choice of all the characters IMO. She's bisexual for starters (and skews towards women at that), with tendency to having many partners (she goes to the club to pick up girls regularly). She's also divorced, has short temper and has a huge debt.
Interesting info, thanks! But still I am usually 1-2 points short of the number needed to invite her after that disastrous (for her) exhibition. And I might underline that I am playing a nice Edwin who wants to help her. I think that minmaxing towards Veronica only functions if you are going into her direction generally. I normally concentrate on other LIs, that might be it, so I do not get choices I need for these few points more.I am not entirely sure who tried min maxxing Veronica route but i do distinctively remember them mentioning that it was still possible to go to on a date with her even if the MC had cummed on her face before in week 1
the only choice that has huge negative impact on her stats is pissing on her during the exhibition but somehow he found a way to min-max his way even that
I remember this because he asked the devs not to "fix" this stat
I am not sure if it's still possible but i am pretty sure even without min-maxing you can get the current Veronica fairly easily
I've skipped through Starless. Didn't like all the fluff and only remember it being long winded and without much variation. Quite the opposite of this game actually. But like I mentioned earlier: Even though I am capable of feeling empathy for our heroines, I don't self-insert. I enjoy them, but they're not my love interests, they're Edwin's.you do know how dark ,twisted and depraved the endings are in the games mentioned above that inspired Pale Carnations right ?
I'm fine with girls *enjoying* sex with multiple men (and we know Mina is interested in it), but I have no idea why you would expect any of our heroines to enjoy such an experience in the Club. That was the mistake Felicia made when she severely underestimated Kathleen's sadism. Maybe if the MC winds up ousting Kat we could see a 'kinder and gentler' Club that encourages such things, but that would probably have to be in the epilogues. Until then I think we're stuck with extracurricular events (like the threesome with Killian) or grudging tolerance of Club events (similar to Felicia in the second Exhibition) for this sort of thing.I've skipped through Starless.

TD & G have not written themselves into a corner yet. There is enough of lightheartedness (or dare I say hope) peeking through that the story could still end with a surplus of positive vibes if they so wished. The difference between me and you is probably that I would love to see the girls experience everything the club has to offer and more AND be happy about their decision to participate because, hey, there are women who actually do seek those thrills without getting paid for it in RL. Why should Edwin and the men only enjoy those encounters? We'll see if the authors are interested in girls switching sides (not) soon enough or if they stay victims 'til the end.
I'm not saying it's going to happen, far from it. It's wishful thinking on my behalf. I don't know which routes they've planned out and which story elements are important to them. I could see a change of attitude through the miracle drug and new management but all I really meant to say is that there's a none zero-chance the women aren't capable of enjoying what they go through, especially if the circumstances were a bit different (case in point: getting slapped by your parent <> getting slapped by your partner).I'm fine with girls *enjoying* sex with multiple men (and we know Mina is interested in it), but I have no idea why you would expect any of our heroines to enjoy such an experience in the Club.
Can you exclude the possibility that the problem is exactly what the message says? SmartScreen is a Windows functionality that tries to identify malicious executables. When you are trying to run a program under Windows while the SmartScreen server is not reachable for some reason, the behavior you describe is exactly what is expected. The SmartScreen server might have been down temporarily, or your firewall might be blocking the connection.I just downloaded the game and tried to run it. It just wouldn't execute, I saw the buffering icon next to my mouse on screen the first few times, as well as a popup that said "smart screen could not be reached right now" and options to run or not run.
I deleted the contents of the 'token' folder in my RenPy folder yesterday. Could that be the reason this game won't run? I haven't downloaded or added any mods, just downloded the game, extracted it and tried to run it.

I am sorry to ask but i heard this game has no ntr/nts but i see the tags and this comment and i am kinda confused is it there or not?I'm fine with girls *enjoying* sex with multiple men (and we know Mina is interested in it), but I have no idea why you would expect any of our heroines to enjoy such an experience in the Club.

depends on your definition. MC's mom is not an LI but is shown getting fucked on camera a couple times, do what you will with that. Also the carnations may be involved with others during the exhibitions, but not in a typical ntr fashion. That's about it.I am sorry to ask but i heard this game has no ntr/nts but i see the tags and this comment and i am kinda confused is it there or not?
Don't forget Ian fucking his caretaker without asking MC for permission or anything and flaunting videos of it. This is pure NTR according to certain folks.depends on your definition. MC's mom is not an LI but is shown getting fucked on camera a couple times, do what you will with that. Also the carnations may be involved with others during the exhibitions, but not in a typical ntr fashion. That's about it.
Why should you be confused? no ntr tag = no ntr.I am sorry to ask but i heard this game has no ntr/nts but i see the tags and this comment and i am kinda confused is it there or not?
There is only 1 correct definition of ntr:depends on your definition. MC's mom is not an LI but is shown getting fucked on camera a couple times, do what you will with that. Also the carnations may be involved with others during the exhibitions, but not in a typical ntr fashion. That's about it.
That's... wrong. NTR doesn't have to involve MC's knowledge. It can be happening 100% behind partner's back and the person being ignorant. It's the player's feelings of "betrayal" (not enjoyment per se, but more the feeling of turmoil and anguish which they can indeed enjoy) which matter.There is only 1 correct definition of ntr:
Ntr = MC is cucked by his/her partner, knows it and suffers about it, and the player enjoys it.
Nope. And nope.That's... wrong. NTR doesn't have to involve MC's knowledge. It can be happening 100% behind partner's back and the person being ignorant. It's the player's feelings of "betrayal" (not enjoyment per se, but more the feeling of turmoil and anguish which they can indeed enjoy) which matter.
And the very fact we have this disagreement shows that there isn't 1 correct definition of ntr. Or if there is, it's by no means universal.
you don't have to explain ntr to me, I know the definition. But there are a million users on this site who don't have a freaking clue about it, so I laid out what people may find controversial about this particular game, since their definition of ntr is not necessarily the same as the textbook one, they get offended if they see a dick that doesn't belong to the mc etc and cry ntr. Many of them even confuse nts and ntr. That's it.There is only 1 correct definition of ntr:
Ntr = MC is cucked by his/her partner, knows it and suffers about it, and the player enjoys it.
Therefore this game has no ntr.
Why in the world you guys keep on insisting on this "thing" that this ntr stuff can be anything?
Uhm yes and yes. There are Japanese games literally titled as NTR with these features/plots. The wife gets seduced or otherwise coerced to betray her husband, the husband is entirely oblivious to it, it's the player (who isn't oblivious and gets to see it in all detail) that gets to get "offended" on their behalf.Nope. And nope.
It really depends on what you mean by NTR. My somewhat glib response is that if it matters enough for you to ask, then the answer is the opposite of whatever you're hoping for.I am sorry to ask but i heard this game has no ntr/nts but i see the tags and this comment and i am kinda confused is it there or not?
Because language is an evolving entity meant to convey information to other people, not some precise technical spec overseen by an impartial arbiter. If enough people decide to use a word in a new way, that's the reality everyone needs to deal with regardless of what our old dictionaries says. Insisting on your own definition in the face of such a divergence only makes the signal to noise ratio worse.There is only 1 correct definition of ntr:
Ntr = MC is cucked by his/her partner, knows it and suffers about it, and the player enjoys it.
Therefore this game has no ntr.
