I was kinda hoping to read some paragraphs like the ones going on these past few days but anyways I'll just leave some of my thoughts
seeing in my files Seeds of Chaos [v0.2.65] was the last version i was playing on, it has been quite a long while and i was a lil annoyed that my saves were borked but man all the reworked art is amazing, very worth (i hate replaying/rewatching anything in general) been playing a bit every day

also the dialogue choice for rowan saying he is the reason the war was won is hilarious, one of the funniest dialogues I've heard in a porn game since Sengoku Rance, I am kind of inclined to agree with that take though

as an avid futa enjoyer I heckin' love X'Zaratl! but am just curious if she'll ever use anything besides her donger?
Oh I'm right there with you when you say that, I too am a big X'Zaratl fan. Rowan and her now in the latest update show the beginnings of a deep connection between the two. One that I hope ends up having X'Zaratl not just want to be inbetween Alexia and Rowan all the time but show some of her own wants and desires for Rowan too. Hopefully as she mentioned before, she perhaps wants Rowan to love her and maybe even begin a family with her. So when you say will she ever use anything beside her cock, I think that's likely being saved for later acts due to those implications.

It does give Rowan power over them... eventually. Whether they're aware of it or not the more they rely on Rowan to build their ability to conquer the world, the more he's able to work on his own agenda, the more capable he becomes of rebelling. If we're going to continue using Dark Knight Rises as a comparison point, Rowan is Batman. He has been knocked down, he has been beaten, he has been broken, but he has the skills, knowledge, and will to rise up, take whatever advantage he can, and eventually defeat the twins. You're quite literally comparing him to someone that can be gotten rid of at any time, and he is, but losing him would set the twins back years. Rowan is the difference between a relatively quick, straight forward, comparatively bloodless campaign to years of pitched wars that the twins would likely lose. If the odds weren't so stacked against him Rowan would be a Gary Stu since he's handsome, a skilled orator, a natural diplomat, a seasoned general and an extremely skilled warrior with an expertise in multiple forms of combat and has shown himself to be so skilled that in a proper fight Andras would stand as much a chance of losing as winning, oh, and he's got that good dick. You're selling Rowan far, far shorter than Seeds of Chaos presents him as.
While I mostly agree with your assessment I think there is one more large layer preventing Rowan from being a Gary Stu. Rowan is as basic as they come (for now) in a world of magic. He has no magical abilities, no magical items, and is a regular slightly above average sized human male in a world of incredible creatures and abilities. If we consider martial and cognitive abilities he is still powerfully portrayed in the game; but he is portrayed as frustratingly weak compared to most other male characters sexually. Orcs, sex demons, large human characters who top him, big fluffy the furry fey, driders, a tentacle monster, minotaurs. The only male characters who are portrayed as weaker are male elves, goblins, and human twinks. Rowan kinda has to get by competing by using the power of love and technique. I do find it frustrating as someone who enjoys playing from the Rowan POV the most. More sexual equivalency would be very satisfying. Could be achieved via temporary / permanent transformation, magical items (like the ring in the X‘Zaratl pregnancy event), or by toning down some of the sexual antagonists / competitors.

Actually how do you resolve any of the Orc Camp stuff? Been messing around with it forever and I can't plan Delany's escape...and what's the point of corrupting her?

Corrupting her locks you into Batari’s path- you cannot rescue her if you do this.

To rescue her you need to lock in multiple groups to assist you. You can find these by scouting the camp, raiding with Batari’s men, or requisitioning help from Cla-min.

Jynx_lucky_j: attempting the rescue solo requires starting to execute the Tarish route and having a change of heart during the process of the delivery. It might also have a low or Med corruption req; my memory of that part is fuzzy. I always opt for straight rescue now so I haven’t attempted that rescue route since my first play through, it also may have changed slightly based on the mechanics rehash- I presume the core components remained the same though.

Ah yes thats right, it been a long time since I've done that route, because now I know what path I'm going to take before I even start the arc.
thats what i meant by the fort, and the cutscene always says how i failed to take care of the finance and shit i forgot the exacts
Actually, I think you might have a older version of the game. I just went to test some of my advice real quick in my game, and there was no Treasury requirement at all. Try downloading the newest version of the game from the 1st page of this thread and see if that solves your problem.

Thank you.

Two more questions: How do I unlock the Chief Orcess scene and how do I get Jezera to give me the potion?
At the end of the Tarish Path you can hook up with her. You'll find the option to to get the potion from Jezera in the Throne Room (I know it's a bit confusing since she is normally hanging out in the living quarters)

dont suppose anyone has a maxed out save
This isn't the sort of game that a "completed save" would do anything for you. You are probably looking for something more like the Seeds of Chaos Extended Scene Replay Mod or using UnRen.bat to enable developer mode.

Thanks but apparently there is a Chief Orcess scene you can get after 'being captured'
I can think of a couple scenes that might be what you describe, but they are all unrelated to the Orcaid camp. They are random events when entering other orc encampment. So you'll either have to wander around searching for orc camps, or you can try to force it by saving just before you enter a camp and reloading until the RNG goes in your favor.
One is called Chieftess_seeks_pretty_boy which is triggered by looking her in the eyes. The other is called orc_feminist_camp which is trigger by using your body to convince the orcs to join you.

Whenever I use unren to try to access the dev console with the scene mod installed this happens on startup. Anyone know a fix?

Reported it earlier but thus far haven't gotten a reply from MonkOne.

It can seemingly be resolved by opening up that "replay label2.rpy" file in Notepad++ (Or any other text program designed to view code), scrolling down to line 764 (Line should say "label claClanGroping:") and turning it into a comment by adding # in front of "label". Save the change, and everything seems to work. I haven't done that scene in the replay gallery, so this might mess it up for all I know, but at the very least the game starts, plays fine, and other scene replays work.

Is there going to be a route where you play a chaos/evil rowan without going heavy into sub/dom plotline? when I found this game I was expecting to play an evil character like you would in fable or other games with a moral system. But its seems to be heading to an ending where you pick all the evil choices and in the end the twins say something like "you can't fool us with the act we know your still a hero at heart". (even though you've been doing all the evil choices). Then rowan gets killed or thrown in a dungeon or something, would be a pretty lame ending. on the otherhand if they say that and rowan kills the twins and becomes the chaos lord ruler of castle bloodmeen or whatever, that would also be kinda lame to me.
What I'm hoping for is something inbetween where you can ally with chaos side to bring down the empire. I think the empire would make a more compelling enemy than the twins, since i can't really take them seriously as main antagonists. The new intro is cool and makes rowan look really good, but i think it would work better as a prologue showing rowan 5 years ago (or whenever the first war happened) in his prime. then when alexia gets kidnapped rowan could fail to protect her since he's retired and rusty. Then rowan could work to get back to his prime. In the current intro the twins basically get their asses kicked and escape with alexia, which doesn't make them seem very intimidating. especially since rowan isn't supposed to be great in a straight up fight and is more a sneaky rogue type. Not sure if it still canon but also when you refused to join the twins don't they fail? That doesn't make for a good antagonist master plan when the protagonist can literally just lay down and die and still foil there plans.
All this makes me more want to help them out rather than sabotage them. (though both options should be there, all the options to take is what makes this game so great.) Also great work on being so consistent for so long with the updates it's really impressive!

i spent time comparing old art style with the new.
it's basically the same as comparing warcraft III Frozen throne VS the brand new Reforged.

both seed of chaos and warcraft III new version image, picture and CG is worse compared with the older version.
they are forcing on realistic aspect to much.

i am convinced this series is a big fail because reforged has proven to be fail.
People prefer clear image over a realistic one hence why lightning and brightness is very important in movie making.

just look at how much time they spent on 1st chapter and they do bunch of rework instead of going forward to chapter 2.
ironically artistic value is very subjective and art replacement is not mandatory but they are going hardcore into it.

smell like a nonsense made by developer to slow down game development.
OR
the old artist is not available so future project is heavily reliant on new artist.

personal bias :
i feel like they are milking patreon before scrapping the series or finish this in a rush.

edit :
i read some review and acording to chambord review
bad :
- Some content from previous versions have been gone

it seems i am not the only one prefer the older content.
i read further into review and some dude called out bad contrast which i completely agree with since the new art is just not appealing.

As I recall (So this could be wrong), the old artist is still there. The change was about division of labor so that one artist did some things, while the other did the rest, to speed up the process. To keep the art consistent, they've been re-doing the old art with the same labor division at the same time as they add new art.

This may not be a perfect comparison, as I assume the older changelogs were during the monthly release schedule as opposed to the current every-other-month release schedule, plus for all I know they just commission more from the artists to boot, but:

0.2.15 had 4 CGs with variations added. 0.2.18 had 4 CGs with variations added (No variations listed, but who knows.)

0.3.02 had 16 CGs with variations added, and 24 reworked. 0.2.64 was 19 CGs with variants and 13 reworked.

So at the art production side has probably more than doubled, even assuming those old releases were monthly releases and discounting the reworks. Subjective taste aside, if they're slowing down production to milk patrons, they're doing a pretty bad job of it.

That's right. Currently the "old artist" (Momdadno) does 6 sketches for each update and the other artist, who is now the main one (Sommelier), makes these 6 sketches into colored, finished pictures + creates 2 more pictures from scratch + reworks some of the older ones. In the beginning of the SoC development, Momdadno did most by himself and delivered colored works. Now the devs order from him only sketches. IMHO new artstyle is vastly superior and has overall higher production value. It also has a dark fantasy vibe that better suits this game.
