haven't played the update yet, but considering the look on her face (and that whip) I wonder if this is part of the high corruption path for Alexia. Course it might be part of the whole s&m storyline with rowan, alexia, and the 4 armed succubus (not even trying to spell that name.)
The problem is: I haven't found this CG in the game files and I'm curious if I'm just dumb or it is an oversight.

Corruption=NTR
If you play that way, sure.
I don't judge. :)

They are milking to create a true work of art not to make money. They have multiple talented people on the team who make consistent bi monthly progress. Hopefully they get more funding since splitting their budget among half a dozen people is paying them way too little for the quality of what they create and compared to what someone who is talented makes in the computer industry for working full time.

What i would like to know is
There was a lot of talks of game mechanics overhaul but no one explained in meaningful way what will be changed ( what to expect ?)
How this changes will affect gameplay , what Improvements will be introduced (if any), apparently part of the story cannot move on without this update.
There must be more transparency in this things.

do the saves from the previous edition work ? and people who are complaining about NTR, 1 it's just a game, 2 the NTR alongside the gay/trans content is 100% avoidable so if you are seeing this and you claim you don't like you should rethink your choices.

Yes. There isn't a compressed version, because the game is already pretty well compressed. Most of the games on the site that have a "compressed" version are because the original is not well compressed and someone not on the dev team made a new compressed version.
Fake news. Medium compression will get this down to around 200mb without much effort. I'll request it for folks w/ low bandwidth. Regards.

Fair, I suppose. I should make a patreon post.

Well, TL-DR:
Skills:
- Removal of feat and attributes, all skill are now merged into a total of eight: Combat Prowess, Brawn, Agility, Stealth, Perception, Wilderness Survival, Diplomacy, Deception. All existing skill checks have been made to use one of the above.
- Dice Roll reduced from d20 to d8, and difficulties lowered accordingly. This means your skill level will have a far greater impact on your probability of success.
- Removal of all equipment customization.

Basically there are less skills, what skill remain occur much more often, and you are far more likely to have skill levels in them to win a check should it happen.

Wounds:
- Rather than acquire custom wounds each time Rowan fails a check, the player slowly accumulates damage up to a point, and once it reaches a threshold (100 points with modifiers), they gain a wound, and the damage meter resets. Wounds always apply moderate penalties to two skills, last around 10 weeks, and can be treated at Cla-Min shop.

Basically occassional failure isn't something you have to be bothered with, but once you get a wound, it will hurt your effort unless you spend money to deal with it. Managing Rowan's condition isn't particularly complex, but you should keep an eye on any wounds you get (you generally shouldn't get more than one every, what, 20 weeks of gameplay? It's not particularly invasive, but the previous system was unworkable)

All in all the RPG element of the game has been greatly simplified, so it can be made use of.

In addition to that, work has been done on varius management elements of the castle:
- Cla-Min now sells skill upgrades (Up to +3 for each skill), treatments to wounds, AND temporary castle bonuses (morale, research, orc recruitment, whatever you might need), meaning Rowan's gold has a lot of use now.
- Forge has now three production modes (+Equipment, +Morale, +Castle Treasury), which you can switch between at will. 90% of the time, you can leave it on Equipment production, but if you find yourself in need of morale or treasury there's the option to gain some.
- Spies now have idle roles in addition to being sent on missions. They can produce Treasury, Kidnap slaves, or spy on Rosarian military to improve the outcome of the updated Asterte battle (more on that to come)
- Slave management is being removed in favour of a static slave bonus.
- The entire Army Management segment is expanded upon. The player will now be encouraged to keep building the army up, so get the best Asterte outcome. (since previously there wasn't any benefit to expanding your army after taking Raeve)

Basically castle and army management gets slightly more in depth, so the game is, you know, a game, but I was taking special care not to make it too complex. Basically if you stumble from hex to hex on Rosaria, you should have no trouble doing at least well.

Some behind the scene work was done on the code and various variables, to make the game behave as it was always supposed to do. It will become apparent once rework goes live.

UI is also being worked upon, to convey some information which simply wasn't available to the player in any way, despite being quite impactful. A new Quest screen is being put into use so you can check your current objectives, as well as track side quests on the map. Portal UI is being looked into, as is the main castle screen, since both don't convey the information I want them to. A new "Start of week" screen has been added that gives you a basic review of your situation each week, informating you of quest deadlines, level ups, current wounds, Rowan's guilt and corruption, and warning you if you're running a deficit, have low morale or aren't researching anything.

I also took the time to review Orciad gameplay, and we have improved the menu for it. Winter is doing the same for Rastedel.

All in all, we've made the game better. And god damn it did it take a while, but we're here finally, and I will see it come fruition even if it kills me.

Yes, X'z and Greyhide are meant as clearly earmarked examples of sharing/swinging that are non-destructive. This is meant in contrast to the twins who *are* destructive.
(I do not know if the futa succubus X'z can be female only. Not sure if they made it possible in the rework)
Neither Greyhide nor futa X'z work for me, but I'd definitely be up for an X'z with fully female equipment down below.

Because it would be out of character for X'zaratl.
Could you tell me if the corruption scenes of Jezera controlling Alexia to do a strip tease and give a blowjob to that guy in the brothel area have been removed from the game in more recent updates?

I'm just wondering because i haven't been able to trigger the scenes for a while and i haven't been able to find it in the debug menu either. Maybe i'm just missing the scene but i thought i'd ask.

Unlikely, I'll check.

I haven't been able to trigger Jezera path including that scene and a lot of the maid events for a while. Is there a specific early choice I have to make?

Well it's been a few months since I played the game and damn I'm loving the new content. The investigation of Shaya narrative and subsequent sex scene was *Chef Kiss* perfect!
The only things I hope to see in the future of the game is a Romance for Jereza, call me crazy but I love a bad lady done right. A proper Orc momma, nothing against the current orc ladies in the game but their appareance leans on the beautifully sexy and not the rough dominate me kind of appareance don't know if you get what I'm trying to explain.
I'm waiting for the future Indarah NPC Arc, her interactions with rowan are so little and brief I can't wait to see what you guys are gonna do with her Arc!
At last is a few doubts, Is the Fae content in the castle and afterwards still blocked? I haven't been able to trigger any of that and the recent Rancou x Zelda scenes, how do you trigger them?
Anyways thanks for the devs and their impecable work ethic on the game, one of the best teams on the Patreon page. Good luck and stay safe
