Mmm, I think the misunderstanding comes from the fact that I called that route lust/corrupted in the guidelines

But in fact, it's the corrupted route more than anything and it's very close to evil route (I just let the possibility to reach it from high lust (and not only from evil points), but you are NOT forced to take that route either if you have high lust, you can choose the other option, and if you don't like NTR, protecting Rion is the obvious direction to take).
And no, choosing the GB is not a prerequisite on the lust options of Rion. It is the prerequisite to corrupt her. Different.

If that was confusing, then I'll correct the "names" of the routes in the guidelines
First route is romance/lust
Second route is corruption/depravation
Last route is straight evil/domination


Also, there is one thing I don't understand. You guys have the choice to do it or not, and yet still complain because you had the choice. It's like going to the bar and having the choice between Coke and Beer. And complain because Beer is proposed.
Nothing is forced here. You don't have to take that route if you don't like it, choosing to protect Rion will preserve your intimate relationship with her, and your lust points as well, so where is the problem?

That said, the fact this "corruption" route seems rushed, especially if you jump from the torrid night from day3 to that corruption scene, is a criticism I accept and understand. Maybe I should have locked the cross path between lust and corruption. And yeah, maybe that jump was a bit brutal and would need some polishing to make the corruption more progressive. That is something I will think about later if I have time. But again, it's an OPTION and a side route, not a main one. If you feel it's out of place, just don't take the option. I would understand your disappointment if there was no other option. But there is => don't let Rion be touched by anyone else. That's it ;). Alright, there are no sex scenes for the other path in this specific update...they are captured, not really the best place to have intimate sex, don't you think so ? ;) But you shouldn't be concerned about that, Rion won't miss any occasion to have some lewd moments with the MC.

You don't imagine how much work it is to manage so many routes, and the complexity to make all the crossing routes still have some sense whatever the options you chose before, especially as it's happening on the same timeline (I understand now, why almost no other developer do that kind of gameplay). So, yeah, sometimes some roamings will feel a bit brutal because what you did before was 1 of the 5 things you could have done before, and that one doesn't fit very well the next event. Yeah, I agree it can happen.

I'm doing what I can in my free time, usually during the night, because I can't live and work full time from it. I would like to have more time to polish every route, but the truth is that I should have closed and limited the number of routes, much more than I did.

Anyway, I made a poll on Patreon on that subject and the results are surprising so far. Or maybe it's the other way... ;)
yeah - there only a few successful games out which manage to go on so many diff routes
thanks for your effort on this (y)-
i wait till next update and see where its leads
atm im a bit .. concerned :unsure:

Quick question. I don't know if I have a bug or something but something weird happened at the oasis.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Have I somehow ended up on the Evil path (i haven't made a single "evil" choice in the game)? I'm using the Multi-Mod btw.
You have the answer in your post : you used the multi mod.
You probably left some points on other girls which you shouldn't have if you were on Maddie's route. (Like some nora lust for example). Careful with using the multi mod, putting max points on every girl is not the way to go, it won't work as intended.

So all of a sudden romance and lust are merged now, when just yesterday:

Now I'm even more confused. o_Oo_Oo_O Anyway, it's just quite frustrating on my part personally as a Rion-centric player that hates NTR or any variety of it that I am now route-locked to only one route, as 2 out of 3 Rion routes are now NTR routes when I was under the impression that NTR would only be minor based on:

Yeah, i thought it may have been something like that. So I can't have any points on any of the other girls or is it that i may have had too many?

The difference is that the first route is the main route and the important one.
If you are worried to get only 33% of Rion's content with the first route, it's not even true in this update as paths 2 and 3 are just a slight variation and it will be even less true in the rest of the game.
I cannot say more, because that will spoil all that is going to happen after, at v0.9 it will be clearer. Maybe my cliffhanger skills for timing the end of update in the most critical moment were a bit exaggerated this time ^^. I always try to let some confusion at the end of an update, that's normal. Maybe a bit too much this time, I don't know, I believe it's natural to have questions and worries, it means you care, and that's nice ;).

The romance/lust path is the main route and yeah they are more or less merged since v0.7, they are the same path but with slight variations on the possible sex scenes (same for Maddie since the start). Where I changed my mind a bit on v0.8 is on giving a cross path from lust to corruption, while at first, I was just going for the evil/corruption route as an alternative. If that was a good decision, I don't know. Some agree some don't. But I cannot let say it's a forced choice

Something is not working ... the sex pool scene with Maddie never was an option...


It´s like I wasn´t following the love path with her, even if I chose to follow that path only, since the very beginning

complains about having too many paths yet your the one that added this random ntr path. what happened to there would be no ntr for the girls path you follow? one of the worst updates for any game

By 'main route and the important one', are you saying that the Romance/Lust path is the canon path? Also, can you clear this up once and for all. Will there be NTR with the other girls paths that the player follows outside of the Evil path, like it happened with Rion? I know you've already answered this many times before, but yeah... you get the picture ;)

I already have 5 different saves, romance route for Maddie, Nora, Rion, Rion-Nora and a straight evil one, which is already a lot but what's the fuzz about the lust route? Are the choices of not getting NTRd locked out? Because otherwise you can choose the other one. I have to agree though that to make a lust or even corruption route equivalent to an NTR one is a bad choice. Btw how do you get that Nora assrape thing? In my straight evil path MC never catched her, just went to sleep alone in the tent.

What I promised is that when you follow the romance paths, you won't have NTR, whatever the girl. Which is still true up to now, and will remain true until the end.

Except that I was on the romance path with Rion with 90+ score/not having a threesome with Nora/Romance and Lust at 5 points each but was somehow shown an option for the GB scene. I get it's because my Lust score is at 5 but it only got there when I opted for the longer sex scenes both in the bath and on the oasis (which are only accessible on the romance path but for some reason adds to your lust score), and also to unlock the deep blowjob in the jeep. So yes, NTR can still show up on the romance path.

From the beginning Rion has always been my favorite girl, and this will likely be true till the end of this Episode 1 (assuming the whole cast changes with Episode 2 SnowStorm).

But I'm not gonna lie. In terms of writing of the LIs arc, Nora basically rose up like a dark horse and I do feel her arc has gotten much better than both Rion and Maddie arcs with the v0.7 & v0.8 (even though v0.8 hardly had presence of Nora, I guess it really left me wanting of her character. And now, it feels like she has that more mysterious aura with her. I mean sure, probably not as much as Foxy, but stll considerable).

It hasn't been long since I finished v0.8, but I'm already looking forward to it, heh.

I'm on full Rion romance path with 6 romance point and even though its avoidable it does disturbed me when the option to giveaway Rion to the terrorists for a gangbang exist. If you want to give the NTR crowds something thats is fine but that option shouldn't exist in the first place on the romance route. Why would my MC that currently madly in love with Rion would just give her away like that.

So much whining over a scene that is completely avoidable. Does its mere existence cause you so much existential dread that you cannot stand it? I think fair criticisms for the gangbang scene would be along the lines of 'It came off a bit low effort' or 'the jump from cheating on her boyfriend of however many years for a college crush jumping to a gangbang is a fair leap'. Alright, sure. Those are actual criticisms which you can use to build an argument for why you think something could be improved. Bellyaching over your hand potentially slipping and clicking the NTR option isn't a criticism. In the hotel when you pick the lust path it literally says (sexfriend/NTR), not sure what was expected. If the option being there is such a crisis then maybe just ask for that option to be locked earlier on through a (romance) dialogue option, maybe on the dirt bike on the way. Seems like a lot of extra work for the luxury of a greyed out box, but aside from just getting over it that's the only sensible solution.

Another shit vote from our dear testers, why does not anyone vote the masked woman? she's the hottest woman in history and people focus a girl who is present in any other game. Might as well watch a movie x on a website
