RPGM Rina: Elementalists of Manahold [v0.4.5] [RareRiroRie]

[Dinamida]

LOVED YOUR GAME!! The humor is great, the art is fantastic and the progression is well paced. In most of these games I actually dislike the combat, but this one was an exception. A bug did occur to me, where I didn't fight the fire mage cause I kept loosing, so I continued with the old crazy guy story till I had to enter a store. I accidentally entered the camp where the fire mage held the goblin hostage and it appeared as if I was doing that goblin's quest. Hope it is not a common problem. Anyway, good luck and keep the good work !

Bro is this RareRirorie's second account, or are you actually as dumb as the main protagonist of this game?
What humor? Where the hell did you see humor XD
Art??? The art looks like a 4 y/o drawn it and an adult just slapped on some color LMAO
Progression?!? Bish, if the most common succubus type gameplay is something you call progression, you truly are as dumb as this protagonist.
COMBAT IS THE STANDARD RPGM COMBAT, WHERE'S THE EXCEPTION!? XDD

 

[The Danger]

So I ran into a few bugs
First one was when after during the cutscene of Rina chasing Rat eye, She would be chasing no one and Rat Eye is just standing to the side. After that, the screen would go black. Was able to to pause but couldn't see or move anything.

2nd one was that the cutscene where she first gets titfuck by the Goblin will happen again when I go near the dorms. After that the game will freeze.

3rd one is that I can't start the shopkeeper job at all.

Is this cause I'm using an old save from the last update?

I got all 3 of these by using a save file from a previous version.

Hoping there's a fix because I'd like to keep my Rina with absolutely broken Magic stats now that there isn't a way to infinitely grind the stat in alchemy.

 

[closetpervert904]

does this mean thers only two new scenes since the last iteration

 

[max_002]

and you can save until the moment when the heroine enters the forest behind the houses after talking with the goblin

 

[carter15]

Any save for the past version?
Please, I don't want to play all over again from the beginning

Rina's personality is cute and she's got rockin legs. The scenarios are hot(especially both of the ones with one eye) and the humor is quite enjoyable. The biggest issue I have with the game probably lies with the combat. Not enough h content mixed in and fights can feel like a drag. Still super early in development so it's not worth making a huge issue out of it. I would say Kiara knight of icicles handled simple rpg combat well where your character is strong and enemies are expendable but you are vulnerable to h attacks/grabs. I know that doesn't particularly mesh well with a student becoming stronger feel but I would ask that the enemies were a bit squishier with a potential emphasis on losing through interferences caused by gropes or h attacks.(at least when in combat with monsters) And maybe mix in mana overflow with these h mechanics. All in all I really do like this game. Way more than I thought I would and have fully played. Finally please don't make her go full mindless whore lol. It's hot that despite the fact that she's doing all this sexual stuff there is this genuine element to how she reacts to it.

Just started playing this, but while the whole premise and stuff works for me, the amount of exposition makes me want to puke. 5 paragraphs of text in order to say something that could be said in one sentence, I've not seen so much waffling since I had to write a few pages on some literature in highschool and I was done with the topic after the first one.

No offence to the dev, it aparrently works for other people so it's a matter of taste, but for me I've felt completely sick after 20-30 minutes.

Oh and while I'm dropping it and I didn't get far, I agree with everybody else on one thing: fix the damn battle damage, fights drag on way too long.

You are right in everything, that's why i just press and hold Z for almost everything in these games. But this game has some fun dialogues especialy with new events.

About the battles, yes, it's long and difficult if you don't play the "right" way. At some point, if you don't achieve lvl 5 with help of the academy (xp from warfare class and alchemy class), you just can't defeat the succubus, and will have to farm xp from the goblins, which doesn't worth because they give very little xp. Better start over than to lvl up this way.

Should be easy to fix this just boosting a little her damage and xp gain from stronger/group goblins.

I will have to disagree here, in my opinion dialogues are what make games like this shine when done well in both h-scenes and the rest of the game as good set up can make even an ordinary scene hot. Sadly there are only a few titles that do it well.
Hell, one of my favourite RPGM porn games is a pure text game.

I got all the same too. I leave for ten minutes when the screen was black but nothing happen except you pause the game.

You can buy little Heal potion in the shop and make one standart heal potion each day during the alchemy lesson.

WARNING YOU CAN LOCK YOURSELF OUT OF PLAY BY NOT PUTTING THE TOP LEFT BOOK AWAY LAST ON THE 3RD DAY AS THE SHOPKEEP WONT WALK ALL THE WAY BACK TO HIS DESK TRAPING YOU.

 

[jaggedlunch]

"tho the upcoming one will get pushed back because I am gonna do the classic Patreon/Substar milking stuff - 3weeks ahead for big patrons, 2 week for mid, 1 week for smart patrons." respect the honesty seriously.

It can happen in any order, at this point his best bet would be to just remove 1 bookshelf...

I find it terribly funny that i've "fixed" that hardlock like four times already (just going into the event script - going through what should be happening inside me head and then "fixing it", ofc without playtesting afterwards) and it still happens. Its one of those beautiful things in life. Like that village tree nearby a rural road that everyone in the village knows about, that one where the road bends and every year some car gets wrapped around it. Every year without a fail. Ngl once I am gonna cut it down and save some lives... It will be a moment of sadness for everyone who knows to slow down.

LOL, I know first hand that currently debugging games is a shit job (even in AAA titles) because from the lack of proper tools for that, now on a project like this totally understandable, tbh I would advice to first keep in mind the main path of the event script and second for every event have 2 ways out that way you minimize your chances of softlocking yourself... Like in the 1st boobjob scene...

for example in this case I would remove all the bookshelves from the left so you can traverse all the aisles in one go...

Also there is still flickering in some image changes and also if posible it would be nice to have the image sequence looping and not depending on dialogue change...

cheers!
