Unity Pure Onyx [v0.138.1] [Eromancer]

[Buziol]

idk about you, but if i have problems, i take these steps:
1. turn off and on
2. buy better components.
3. install more ram.

I wanted to be a dick to him too (my 2 years old, actually high-end PC is able to have solid 60fps as I've checked)...but he still has a point. Game is badly optimized and takes way too many resources for what it offers. Just because I don't feel it, doesn't mean it's not there.
It's not Yandere Simulator level of incompetence but there is still some bad juju going on behind the scenes.
My bet is that some people on Eromancer's side have the same "I'm an absolute tool" mentality - "just buy better gear, problem solved" - and started throwing some weird-ass, completely unnecessary improvements and effects. I don't want to compare this crap with versions from years ago but I don't recall it being so resource-heavy.

I didn't realise how old this game was. For what it is right now it's... fine?
It certainly looks good but it has performance issues even on my 7900 XT.

I hope it doesn't die in a ditch like so many of these do.
The combat's pretty rough which is bad because that's the entirety of the gameplay but otherwise I like what I'm seeing.

Oh boy, you missed a lot of important facts that would change your expectations haha

As you've noticed, this game is quite old at this point...and it hasnt really moved beyond what you're seeing for 4-5 years now?
Like, we can argue about levels and enemies being added (about 1.5 enemy per year? xD) but mechanically, this is still the same technical pre-alpha demo we've seen in 2020 (I'll be generous not to include 2019 because on Kemono you can see that they still changed something by the end of the year back then).

It is going the same route as "A Sorceress' Tale" by Mithos56, who is milking support since 2016 while still being in pre-alpha.

It is still a barebones fighting game with literally nothing to make it interesting beyond high quality sex animations (but if animations are all you're after, don't you want to support Gifdozer and other directly for their SFM work?).
Though even on that front we have seen a whole drama unfolding - since rape and bestiality is a big no-no on general crowdfunding like Patreon, which resulted in self-censorship (done in the most bizarre way possible) and then it was still banned from Patreon because bug enemy CANNOT GIVE CONSENT xD (plus some worries brought up to Patreon staff about the promised content being delayed and stuff).

Pure Onyx was supposed to be a "quick, side project" to support an already abandoned MATM game.
I can't make this up

Because it seems people simply download "the game" and don't read the context.
THIS EXECUTABLE IS A TECH DEMO.
There are no "other levels" and no scenes*. It's a proof-of-concept that Divine Arm's old battle system and updated designs are still fun to play after a full Flash-to-Godot transition. You load a basic level and try to various high-level spells on an endless wave of enemies.

At the end of 2023, ViperV decided to remake Divine Arms from scratch (hence the v2) and it is the half-update of the 3rd iteration. (2.35 fits between 2.3 and 2.4)
To give you an idea, 2.2 was technically a demo but didn't even have sound. This one is a very enjoyable debug build IMHO

If you want a functional game and not a debug build for feedback, you probably should check for news in a few months instead of trying right now?
*There are some very nice animations as examples on his support platform, but the code to run them ingame isn't there yet.

I'm not stating anything new. Just something obviously this guy has missed

Oh.. another one of these. I feel like I'm Schrodinger's Observer, not the box, not the cat.
These games look fine until I actually try/look at them and then there's 10 years of lore about why it's a lost cause.

I do believe I've been cursed since I called out the Krystal devs for their overly ambitious bullshit.
My apologies, I killed this game too.

Yeah, I feel you. Every time I get excited for any game, Hentai or not, it is a rotten garbage fire.
I remember how hyped I was for Fallout 3...which is garbage. Didn't care for New Vegas at first - it's a freaking benchmark for how you should design quests and storylines.

Here is the same - I was really looking forward to this project but I simply can't overlook what's been happening with it so far.
Stuff like delaying moving to SubscribeStar (to avoid censorship and future drama) because it was easier to milk Patreon and make weird ass promises. Now, they lost Patreon exactly for the reasons I've said they would and were forced to move anyway, wasting time, energy and everyone's patience

I'm curious to watch it"grow" but I keep my expectations in the freaking Mariana Trench and unless some miracle happens, I will not fund it since I don't like rewarding top-tier mismanagement.

 

[Shade11111111]

the game randomly crashes it worked very well in 0.104 but now with the new version idk what happened

I'm having this problem with every major Japanese title that is ported to Pc.
I remember that I gave up on the first Ni-Oh because that port was bollocks, and every Team Ninja title is horse shit on Pc. Elden Ring port is horrible as well, I've seen some articles talking about the state of PC gaming in general, more than one article to be precise.
I play everything on PC and let me tell lad, it's been hard. Almost every company out there act like cunts towards the PC community.

I don't get that issue to much since I've upgraded my PC but also because...most modern games are trashier with each year.

It's not even a case of Eromancer being lazy or something. And it's not about the nostalgia because I have little to none right now. For the past decade, there's been a heavy trend of quick cash grabs (optimalization be damned).

I'd call it a heavy commercialization of gaming sector. You know, old school devs get kicked out of their own companies or turn into mongrel CEOs/directors. Look what Blizzard did with Overwatch and Warcraft...hell, Diablo is a shadow of itself. That's why a lot of companies don't really care about how they treat their customers - as long as numbers go high it's fine and dandy for the investors.

Anyway, don't feel bad about not being able to run something well these days. In 90% of the cases, you're not missing on much. Like, after years of mediocre RPGs, BG3 was the only one I actually had fun "like I used to".

Hi there guys, could I surmise that based on the trend of the conversation; that the game is resource intensive at its current state?

PURE ONYX - June 30, 2024 Test Release

Hey everyone!

Here is the June Pure Onyx test release!

Mega
Google Drive


We've added another much requested change with this release . You can now toggle Loop Mode on and off in the animation gallery! When toggled on, the current animation will loop at the current speed.

Another major addition is the first of the Ghoul enemies -- the Shambler . These are malfunctioning robotic enemies that behave similarly to zombies. Upon aggroing a pack of them, they will begin to spread acid, making the encounter area more hostile over time. Currently these only appear in the survival wave missions, but new maps are coming soon.

We've also added the FK-Doll + Runt Handjob scene, as well as fixes to the Ring Girl + Thug scene.

Check out the full list of changes below!

Changelog
The following is only a list of player-facing changes, unless otherwise noted. (** indicates items added since the June 25 Inner Circle test release.)

• ** Added ambush and enemy spawn event system.
• ** Added Vioreaper ambush traps to Outskirts.
• ** Fixed FK-Doll's bare shoulders being scrunched into her body when Jacket is removed in Runt Handjob scene + during Idle animations
• ** Fixed FK-Doll's jacket collar clipping with her face throughout the Runt Handjob scene
• ** Fixed looping issue in Ring Girl + Thug finisher animation + fixed her boob anim in outro
• ** Vioreapers and Larva/Crawlers are no longer vulnerable to acid damage
• Added Loop Toggle functionality to animation gallery
• Pressing X (keyboard) / Y (XB) / Triangle (PS) by default now toggles Loop Mode during a scene in gallery
• Added FK-Doll + Runt Handjob scene to animation gallery
• Added Ghoul Shambler enemy + portrait. They will currently appear in survival wave missions.
• Added Acid Spit attack for Ghouls. Ghoul packs create pools of acid under them when aggro'd, making the area more dangerous over time.
• Added backend damage resistance system (currently for Fire and Acid). Ghouls are resistant to their own acid attacks.
• Ground fire (and similar damage) no longer randomly causes knockdown
• Ground fire (and similar damage) no longer causes knockdown while jumping
• Reduced sluggishness of Onyx beginning her walk animation and returning to idle animation
• Added Ring Girl disk portrait
• Updated Onyx's loot window and HP gauge portraits
• Added shader-based animated background FX system to Spider Caverns, Slums Street, and Slums Basement maps
• Fixed foreground FX clipping with the floor plane in Spider Caverns
• Fixed some masking issues with the loot window artwork

thanks man!
anyway..
