I only play chapter 1. What is the Major romance path choice mention in the change log? Does that mean you can swap Maria with other girl?
Maria is unavoidable. Major romance path choices come down to a throuple with her and Emilia, or a small harem with those two and two other girls, Zaya and Lune.

See, this all makes sense, except the rant in question was the male MC banging two lesbians in a 3some.

And then calling him a cuck. :unsure:

It's like someone heard the new word all the kids are using and is going to use it, regardless of context. :rolleyes:
Yeah, they were upset that the two women were in a relationship with each other before they invited the MC.

I mean... who are you going to believe... someone who actually published a game on steam or some random expert :ROFLMAO:
The person who is part of (the 10 employees of) Unfold Games who made and published Darq isn't just "a random expert". He or she's someone who actually published a game on Steam.

The changelog mentions an important plot choice in this update, but I didn't get any besides how to attack based on stats. Wondering if I missed something... nice update btw.
I think you didn't miss anything.

And there's no difference between the paths (Maria only vs Maria & Emilia) except for a couple of dialogues.

As I recall, the game told us that the early-ish choices of what abilities to improve were only going to be (paraphrasing from memory) "flavor" not choices that would affect anything key in the story.
It's nothing key/super important, but it'll affect some text and a suggestion or two you get for other plot choices (but won't lock you out of anything). It'll be along the lines of "you did x last time, want to do x again?" with the option to either do x or do y. :)

Sorry if this error has already been posted. Literally 10 seconds into game and got this error screen. Does this happen if you choose a name besides the default for the MC?

It's not an error. That's part of the game script. The "Name" having trouble loading is the narrator. This doesn't make sense yet; it will.

I like this game but fuck me a lot of the dialogue is repetitive and annoying. Like I'm at the part where they just find out about the fertility plague and the amount of times you felt the need to recap ' Duel, get engaged, discover plague' was way to high.

And the way every conversation is a damn Q and A with the definition of every second word needing to be explained. Like I get it from a narrative/continuity standpoint, but it's bogging down the pace and making the reading experience kind of a slog

Edit; Admittedly I'm coming back to this game for the first time in over a year, so this might be isolated to this scene. But I do recall the conversations between Legacy and the MC to be rather cumbersome due to the necessity of explaining very basic concepts to a rube.

The game size is 6GB, but when I check the changelog, each update only brings about a couple of scenes, so what I want to know is what image format is used here? png, jpg or webp?
Honestly speaking, allocating a couple MBs of storage for an image you'll see only once is kind of wasteful

Imagine coming to a porn game forum to ask about image format and compression. :p Lossless webp, since you're wondering, and each image averages less than 1MB. When you have ~1MB/image, ~300 images/chapter, and 17 chapters, plus some animations and the Renpy overhead, you get 6ish GB.

this game reads like it is written by a person who has never had any encounters with women or the opposite sex outside of family members.
the dialogue is so cringey and just... awkward.
also taking forever to get to anything doesn't make this game a 'slow burn'. it makes it slow, period.
also hating on americans and being extremely liberally biased and ostentatious about it is off putting. no need to put personal politics into your game.
I think most people agree that while I'm not the best writer out there (Drifty writes circles around me, for example), I'm pretty good at writing reasonable and realistic dialogues between my characters. Have you considered that you may not have ever interacted with a non-familial female? I mean, if everyone is saying that the relationships and people seem pretty realistic, and then you say it's not... It might be you that's mistaken. :p

Either way, it sounds like this game isn't really for you given that you don't like any part of it at all. Hope you find something more to your liking. :)

you shouldn't give a shit about what he said... considering the setting, it's actually quite progressive that they are having pre-marital sex at all... some people just can't appreciate a good story without people fucking left and right
