I'll just comment on the walkthrough since almost everyone else has and/or is talking about the game

@Ark Thompson: the walkthrough you have provided needs tons of re-evaluations, most of the required information is there, but it feels like a guide on stuff in the game than an actual walkthrough, walkthroughs needs to be in a certain order as in on day 1: do 1,2,3, day 2: do 1,2,3, etc.

I played the game three times and only on the third I got the half mark achievement at the end of November (in-game for those who wants to say anything stupid) and since nothing was mentioned on what to do on a daily basis I got Eri's bad end

also, around the end of the game I noticed that I needed to open the scat element, but since nothing was mentioned out of the subquest event, I didn't know of it till the end game

the list can keep going on and on what is wrong with this walkthrough as it is not organized by what to do when and is more focused on how good you memorize the damn thing

I totally agree with you on that. That's exactly why the word "Walkthrough" is written nowhere. It's a guide, not a walkthrough (as written on the first page of the guide). It's the creator of this thread who wrote walkthrough, not me.

Normally if you reach the end of November without having enough money you get Yuki's bad end (to get Eri's bad end, you'd need to fail or not do a particular quest but failing activating this quest would mean you didn't talk to Eri at all throughout November). Cause on a daily basis, the goal is to shoot videos to get money, I thought the intro was clear enough about that.

I don't know which version you played but there's been clear explanations at the end of the scat quest about how to handle the element (and how it locks/unlocks content) since v0.8 (so since May).

As I said, it's not a walkthrough, it's a guide. One of the thing about SoV2 is that there are different ways of finishing it. Making a walkthrough stating where to go at which moment would reduce the game to a simple choiceless Visual Novel. I have nothing against VNs, but SoV2 is meant to be played. Not just watched. It's my way of seeing things and I know some people disagree, but I will not make a day-by-day walkthrough. I'd rather focus on making the game accessible enough to avoid the use of the guide as much as possible, which is, to me, the right thing to do.

I'll reply to this part since I agree with you on the rest of your post.

The quest location is at the very bottom of the guide, I played the game a fourth time while using the RPG cheat menu to pass the game, too much stuff to do with too little time to use, for example, if I wanted to make money for the sisters, I would lose from half a day to a full day just to get money for the needed items for the zoo alone.

Not to mention that the very nature of your guide is scrambled.

I never said that I wanted you to make the walkthrough, all I said that there should be one, if not you then by someone who actually managed to finish the game whit out the use of cheats or other people saves, that's all there is to it

Needless to say, I actually enjoyed the game, hence not commenting anything against it, if I like something I don't say how bad an element of the game was unless it was a major flaw like the story or something like that.

And for those that want to compare this game to other games out there.

This game is actually solid for a version 0.9, unlike the other ongoing games in this site.

Any one have The "Souvenir Book" stated in the change log, it doesn't seem to work for me?

From the Change log:
- The "Souvenir Book" is now available! You need to get all the cards of Slice of Art to get it from Chie. Getting is will allow you to replay all the scenes of the game that aren't shot for Eri. You can find it in the newly added bookshelf at the first floor of the Minazukis' house.
- Exceptionnaly for that update the "Souvenir Book" will be available from the start.

The save itself works, but I'm getting that annoying bug where every message gets autoskipped at 20x speed or something stupid. How do I fix it?

This should do it, don't actually try to play the game from this save though, I just turned on all the switches and added all the items.
