I have seen that there are game developers in the chat so I have come to point out a bug and my thoughts on the game.
The bug is in the orc camp I cant chose to rescue the prisoner girl. When I try, I only get the options to secure a distraction and scout the camp but the find an escape path option is missing and even if I pick them in a different order one disapears.
As for my thought on the game:
Did the writer change? Please tell me so I can give up on a game that I thought had potential.
GAME: I feel that the game has no direction, like headless chickens running around making new events that add nothing to the story or wold building making me feel that the sex events should stop in a sex game...
TEXT: I have found many repeating text or text that contradict each other. For instance at one point during the battle after securing your allies they say that there are 500 enemies and then they say that there are 2000. During the capital visit at one point it is mentioned that there are 50,000 people living in it and the next moment that there are 100,000. Not to mention repeating sentences with different wording saying something that has already been said in the sentence before.
GAME MECHANICS: The random castle events are broken, I had delayed picking them so that they build up and I can read the story in one peace (or to fap). But some seem to have simply disappeared I had them on the screen at one moment and the next they are gone. As well as them simply not following world events and jumping out at you. For instance before I took the rave keep there were already events going on and speaking as if it has already fallen.
The skills you get to pick offer a lot of confusion, as in some events there were mentions (in the text not in the skill check) of needing something to be high to a certain degree and then it being called "willpower" if I remember correctly. It was the blue forest head event, so I got confused as there was no stat by the name of willpower.
The in game choices should not be hidden, they should be disabled. As I was playing the game I had choices with only one option or no option at all. Getting all confused about what I should have done to get more options. If they were shown instead of removed but only disabled (depending on your choices) so that you could pres on them to see what actions were needed to chose them in the next play through. In my opinion at least it wold motivate you to play again instead of being worried about spending hours on an event that you may not like.
WORLD BUILDING: I like the world building quite a bit, but when it comes to it I have to ask. Did you change the writer? Do you not have set plans and goals as you develop the game? The early parts are golden but the more you play the more cracks appear in the already established world building as well as the events feeling more and more forced instead of flowing nicely.
ROWAN: I have to say I am more than disappointed in what the mc has become. In the past he was a great hero, genius general, great fighter... (at least story wise) Now he cant do shit, all his actions are the actions of a slave that has both his hands and arms tied. It is suffocating as you play of not even being given a option to shake the chains to see how long they are. Or the general incompetence he is portrayed with. There are many instances where he could have stood up for the greater good played with the twins and still accomplished his goals.
INSTANCES THAT NEED JUST SOME TEXT TO MAKE ROWAN HAVE BALLS AND A BRAIN IN THE GAME
For instance at the very first village, just as he agreed to serve the twins he could have asked for the slaves as a reward, (they promised that if he served them well he will be rewarded) saving slaves gaining some servants and starting to grow his own forces to secure his position or to simply rebel against the twins later. But no, so one opportunity abandoned.
Then in the orc camp he could have spoken to the orc woman after rescuing the nobble woman saying how he can still make her chief if she is obedient to him. Guiding the victory of the duel to where he "saw" her and then an stray arrow killing the orc. If he promised to help her she does not accept but it does not mater he can still lead the victor orc out of camp killing him and saying to the twins how he secured there power in the camp by weakening her control thereby making her more reliant on them. Plotting to gain more control in the camp from the orc matron offering her peace, from the priest saying how they disappointed the chaos gods by following the order gods in the ways of always repeating the action of following the demon lords getting defeated and so on... Then he could pick out the armored orc the, carver orc and more of the misfits to further secure his power in the camp and grow his own forces. Second opportunity abandoned.
Again all that is needed for this to happen is some text
Then the myriad of world events like Darla the huntress, the adventurer party the dragon horse and fucking the countryside noble woman/ killing her husband to secure funding and so on. All chances for him to grow his own forces securing his power and a chance to oppose the twins all needing some text all granting more sex options that could otherwise be missed in a play through.
Or Rowan not even trying to teach the orcs about how mining is more profitable than a slave economy how to control there beastly natures for a bigger reward in the long run, him protecting them from the red demon and gaining there loyalty.
Rowan could be growing his forces under the pretense of restoring his home village that got destroyed, but it seems that that was abandoned. (did the writer change?)
I am saying this for it was mentioned several times that we will have a choice in killing the twins in the future. Took me over 30 h to finish the game (granted some of it was roleback for beter dice rolls but still) without any way to oppose them. Nobody is going to stick around that long for an imaginary retaliation.
NTR: I can not say in words how much I hate ntr, but if you hate something truly hate it to your core you know shit about it. And I know that the ntr in this game is the bad kind. I have read stories not knowing they were ntr till I had read most of it and then it hitting me, me immediately going out of it leaving a raging one star review and spending the next multiple hours raging about it.
So there are 2 kinds of ntr lovers. One kind got ntr-ed so they want to see others especially those in love get ntr-ed and in general want to watch the world burn. The other kind is the one who has mental development problems and actually likes there significant other getting fucked feeling pity for themselves and from that pity gaining pleasure.
Neither of this sides is satisfied by how this game presents ntr.
And the strong NTR ambience is insane. (swinging ambience is ntr ambience to every straight man)
The wife is stuck in a room for months getting depressed and instead of killing herself she finds comfort in the man who put her in that position? Like make her try to kill herself the red man saving her and then with a lot of neglect from Rowan and him fucking other women to finally her slowly turning to ntr as a way of comfort and Rowan being able to do nothing for he feels guilty to her. Otherwise the game should have ended when Rowan came to the capital gotten his leash removed by the pries girl and lead an army to kill the twins and his wife.
Not to mention there not being any repercussions from the constant rape everywhere. The pregnant woman in orc camp should have killed herself if Rowan fucked her or she should have been gang raped to death after she gave birth. There should be constant castle maids killing themselves or being fucked to death. Half the army should have died from syphilis.
EVENTS FEELING FORCED: Most of the events in this story especially the sex events feel forced and it got so bad that I wanted to quit the game by the time that horned woman threw her party with the wife kissing somebody and Rowan just abandoning her to wander around to fuck the hornet woman. (You may say you don't have to fuck her but I have to say this is a sex game so stfu)
For instance when Rowan is taking villages and is approached by the noble with those 2 girls, it should be so that he has to fuck them or the noble does not feel secure betraying the twins and getting the village slaughtered. With rowan having a chance to pas a perception check when he is leaving to return in a few hours just as the noble is about to betray and taking him up on his offer to fuck the women.
Or the castle maid being drugged by the blue demon, he could have said that he can satisfy her without drugs and passed agility, perception and brawn rolls to satisfy her making the blue demon poison her anyway and Rowan finding her dead in the orcs barracks.
THE BIG BAD VILLAIN: The game introduction literally says we get to play as the villain. I see no villainy here I only see a pathetic slave trying to keep his shit together and failing. Rowan should have abandoned any thought of salvation by the time the red demon broke his word and killed the prisoners. After that he should have gone to the transformation mage using the corpses of exceptional individuals like the 2 orc chief the main goblins some beasts he killed the corrupt tree and so on to gain power to finally kill them. Manipulating the twins crippling one of them in the capital event then in act 2 killing 1 right at the start the 2 in the middle and starting to rule as the dark lord.
For now how the event are unfolding, this game is at a dead end to me. The demons have started a war 10 years after the 1st making people remember the horrors of the former. Then they showed how they kill prisoners and how there subjects are slaves and disposable pawns at best. Who would follow them? Who wold fight for them? People wold revolt making the twins the rulers of ash and dust in the event they survive but 100,000 vs 500 orc/goblins yeah this is at a dead end. The only way they could take the capital was through cloak and dagger with and a show of force not a fucking invasion. Like if Rowan does not go the villain roll he should kill himself in the capital event with the end game telling about how the twins fucked everything up and got themselves killed.
The way rowan is only sticking around till he can disable the demon teleportation should be mentioned so many times like its insane that a teleporting army that rots the lands is being underplayed!!! THAT SHOULD BE THE WHOLE REASON HE DID NOT KILL HIMSELF OR ESCAPE AND IS TRYING TO MITIGATE THE DAMAGE PLOTTING TO KILL THEM!!!!!!!!!!
