RPGM Completed Roundscape Adorevia [v6.8 Steam] [Arvus Games]

[slitherhence]

Just finished it for the first time after like three restarts halfway through. Boy howdy does the quality take a nosedive after Act 2. Power progression basically stops, enemies don't get any harder and we don't get any stronger, most of the systems from Act 1 and Act 2 get abandoned or left in stasis, the sex scenes are few and far between, and the writing goes from weak to downright atrocious.

And yeah, I get it, it's a porn game. But titles like The Last Sovereign have proved that you can have a porn game where the creator knows what a bloody comma is, what a sentence fragment is, and that gluing syllables together with apostrophes does not a compelling fantasy setting make!

Not to mention the quality control apparently also flies out the window, if the number of mangled sentences, grammatically incorrect sentences, sentences with leading or trailing characters cut off by formatting errors, and repeated sentences is anything to go by.

Bleh.

Still. It's a finished game, even if the conclusion feels rushed, and that's a rare thing in this genre. If I were giving advice to anyone, it'd be to quit after the end of Act 2 and then just pick out the epilogue slides that match your choices. There's really nothing gained from playing through Act 3.

Hmmm.... three things. 1). I agree that the game world feels a lot smaller in Act 3 and the story events feel shorter. 2). I disagree that this is a quality issue. 3). I always find it humorous when people complain about grammar and then spell out what was wrong with the grammar.

I think the reason the world feels smaller and the events are shorter in Act 3, frankly, is that your characters are globe-trotting badasses with the resources of multiple nations to back them up. You aren't struggling just to reach Slinsk like you were in the early game. Now, instead of a lot of wandering around, you can go to the exact place you need to be to get to the meat of the events. It makes for a much shorter on-screen adventure even if the actual content is similar in size.

I'm not sure as to the quality. Honestly, didn't notice much of a problem. Too busy enjoying the game. And I'm generally blind to grammar issues that don't affect readability. Because I'm too busy reading it to care. Something I like to call "priorities." If there was an issue that actually affected my enjoyment of the game, I'd be right there with you. But since there isn't... ::shrug::

And on the subject of grammar: there's a rule of thumb you should keep in mind: If you can tell what they did wrong well enough to correct it... then it doesn't affect the clarity of the sentence enough to need correcting. Claim you want to protect the clarity of language all you like but just by listing off all the things done wrong you prove what you actually care about isn't clarity. It's just pedantry. Now, if that's your thing... go for it. Just don't pretend that you are serving some noble calling when it's really just an ego thing.

Regardless, I still jump when I see Roundscape has updated. ::shrug:: Good enough for me.

P.S. Agree with you on NTR with the additional caveat that the character must enjoy being belittled in such a way. Otherwise it's not a sexual fetish (NTR/Cuckolding)... it's just one person being a bitch/douche to another.

There is mods or something like this ?

When it's a product on which you make money the grammar should be on point. Not only does it take the reader out of the world, it also screams low quality effort. There is a big difference between grammar in an online post and grammar in a game. Poor grammar or wording can turn what should be a serious moment into a comedy really fast. Lastly it makes the characters seem extremely unintelligent as a side effect.

Proper grammar is needed if you want your project/game whatever to be taken seriously. Though it is not paramount to the games playability if it can convey the important parts without loosing the information.

Lastly NTR can be cucking without enjoyment while cucking is NTR with enjoyment. As NTR is generally used when someones love is stolen regardless of ones own enjoyment of the act. Cucking however is generally linked with the desire to see your loved one being "stolen". Cucking is a form of NTR.

New Encounter - Takes place at the start of the game in Oakshire. Includes a smaller erotic scene for both genders.

Stuff like this is what makes me want to wait until Roundscape is fully finished before playing it. There always seems to be an update which affects the early stages of the game.

 

[The Ascendent]

Running into a problem. Blank black screen instead of the introduction. Any advice?

 

[Waaifu]

Added v4.4 changelog to OP.

Thanks @Muff Diver

I have a pretty odd question about updating the game. This is the first game i updated from this site, so I am a bit new to the process. I installed the gallery mod from red knight and was just wondering if i will need to reinstall the mod to 4.4 as well as move my saves to 4.4 folders. Or is there a more straightforward way, if so please let me know thank you.

the saves can have problems with never versions , and you need to transfer them as far as i know.
by updating you mean download the complete game ? (english isnt my mothertounge there are some misinterpretations sometimes, sry its enough to communicate at least) if so you need to install the mod again but im pretty sure it will be updated for the actuel version so its better to wait a little.

 

[HoweverMayBe]

Any new incest scene?

 

[CboyC95]

One gripe I have this game is how you're always and can't run away from them like in other RPGs no matter how badly you wanted to.

 

[!Forsaken!]

alright I killed the beast on the bridge to Slinsk it is telling me to find someone to repair the bridge I can't find this person can someone help me?

 

[RJP]

Why the controls are so terrible? Insteat of Z and X they use Space and K, wtf. Take some minutes in the unskipping intro to discover the key that erases the letters for put my name.

 

[jabbathehut69]

does anyone have the save file till 4.3 end ?

 

[flossy123]

who the hell is galvin?

 

[CookieKookie]

I wanted to ask something to the people who have been playing this game since the 2.8 build. I was waiting for the game to be finished so that I don't miss out on any early stuff. So the questions are:

- How far has the game come? (I've finished the story before)
- What's the new story like?
- Give you opinions on how you see the game.

Thanks ~

I used to have a problem, a few releases back with this game, where i would play this game normally, no problem at all. But at closing it my computer would crash after a few minutes. It only happened with this game, and to be honest, i was kind of frustrated so i just waited for the game to probably fix that. What im trying to say is if someone had this problem before, was it fixed?

 

[Anonymous44]

Where do you meet with Twilia after talking to her at the castle for the new Rulwe companion quest in Ver 4.4?

 

[volxzg]
