Well for any Roya lewd events, there are no differences that I can think of, because the look stays essentially the same (so far) the entire game.
The real world replays do in fact reflect Aura's current looks. They also take into account current behavioral changes from both mental changes and Roya based behavioral changes. There are a couple exceptions where it wouldn't make sense for the standing image, or Aura's real life appearance isn't changed enough to have reached a scene yet. If that happens the earliest version of Aura's changes where the cutscene can trigger will be shown. If what I said was hard to follow, just start a NG+ and then go to the real world replay room and watch some of the scenes with CGs and then compare them to what they looked like before the NG+ reset.
What I'm saying is if you go to the gallery Aura standing art is her gyaru form (if you have gotten that far), no matter what event you choose to replay including the ones where she shouldn't be a gyaru yet. I'm not just talking about her lewd events but all of them.
Past the first few scenes Aura doesn't have a set look she would have, so there's really not a 'correct' standing image for replays. While I wouldn't complain about having more control over the replay rooms, I feel like it would be a reasonably big overhaul for a pretty minimal benefit to either bind Aura's standing image's look to the ones possible at the time the scene would trigger or to allow setting each individual possible flag for replays. The actual CGs are limited to when they can trigger though, so they don't always match the standing image. Also, Aura isn't really in her "gyaru form" yet. She still has at least one new outfit and hair change to go, plus the traditional tan. Temporarily hopping into NG+ is always an option if you want to see a scene closer to its minimum corruption version.
New Game Plus, a feature of many modern games. You should have a Clear Gem in your Key Items. Use that and exit out the upper right tunnel to start the game over. Before exiting you can use the items in the room to assign any Score points you may have earned from playing through the game to give you bonuses for the next time through.
You can buy Mana Stones from the Alchemist, but you gotta go to your inventory and actually use them to increase your mana.
without looking at your game it's hard to pinpoint the problem, but i replayed the game a few times, and never got stuck, so i don't think there is any bug there, but you might be missing something, look at all the rooms carefully in the mental change even if those crystals outside are not changing color indicating there is something new, so click on everything, also save and try to pass a few days, i think some events trigger after a few days passed if i'm not mistaken.
How many compliments do you have? You only need 5 to get past the Rose guardian I think
So, I've looked and checked all rooms available and done what was available... there was two things keeping me stuck, Rose's friendship and compliments, but I wasn't getting any more school events. And I kept getting and accumulating corruption I couldn't spend, so it was only a matter of time I would get an unavoidable game cover. Maybe I fuck it up somewhere in the progress....
Maybe you were missing the "replace Rose with Alicia for going home" change, but the best thing to do would have been to attach a save.
Yeah, there is no way to get stuck with the mental changes, except maybe if you fiddle with the values via save editor.
I hope she won't lose her edge once she'll become the biggest whore in the block
If you're on PC you can access the load menu by hitting F9.first time playing this, I'm like 1hr in and I gotta say.. it's the first corruption game where the character is so good (strong and smart, a nice personality that is somewhat original among other things) I'd honestly prefer to keep her that way
from what I've seen so far.. amazing work, the world, the UI (would've liked a load option in the menu though), everything is done wonderfully.
That looks like it was a save file where the player was having issues, so it probably wasn't the best choice. There's a post by pretentious goblin on page 154 that has some save files that would probably work better. I haven't checked them in a long time, but when they were first posted the one before the festival was able to beat the festival boss, and I didn't encounter any bugs in the few days after completing the festival that I tested. There have been quite a few changes to the game since the saves were updated, so it might have some random weirdness with them. You could always try posting your save and/or asking for advice.
