So what's the consensus on the game so far? How's everybody feeling about it?
Dunno about everybody, but I'm feeling like it's the best corruption eroge I've ever come across. People who like their CG gallery games will get filtered very hard by this, and it's definitely a long-form corruption game. In its genre, I would call it pretty brutally difficult, you need to actually plan shit out if you want to go a purity route. That there is a (difficult) purity route is another plus in its favor, imo.

Play it if you want:
Challenging JRPG gameplay
Anime story and characters
Slow corruption
Corruption integrated into the gameplay
Don't play it if you want a fap-game for the evening and you don't particularly care about all of the above.
Really enjoy it. Wish we could interact in the real world, and I so want to learn more about the backgrounds and stories of a few of the 'real world' characters as there have been so many intriguing hints...but I do love the game.
Despite having enough vice, the option to sign away the girl's contract with Roland in the last scene is greyed out. Is this just because it's not complete at the moment?

scene where Roland fucks Aura and gets her to modify the contract of some slave, you can select the high vice options but the last option to make her lose all pleasure in her life when not having sex with (whatever the other knight was called) is greyed out even when I have over 15 vice
I reallllly love this game but I really start to have an issue bothering me highly ...
The more you do lewd acts the less the game is playable, I've reached a point where aura simply doesn't want to fight anymore, so basically, you are locked and can't progress anymore in the story. This couldn't be an issue if you had proper bad ends, but you have not in this game. So at somepoint you take curses and you are simply locked and have to delete your save and restart the game from scratch without reaching any ending point and this ruins the fun so much.
Also I don't see the point to make a full route to have her corrupted by Richard but as she gets corrupted she is made unable to progress the story ... I mean, again it should be a bad end right?
I'd really love to this the game improve here cause it's just unplayable as soon as you take a few curses and if you don't take them, well you are not going for the corrupted route right? It's the first game about corruption where you actually can't let the heroine be corrupted,I'm really confused here ...

If you go FULL corruption (collecting H-scenes and curses like pokeymans), yeah, I can see it becoming too much of a problem between all the curses and debuffs, addictions, hangovers from IRL, not to mention all the incoming corruption. But going like 3/4 or 2/3 (e.g. choosing between Roland and Hermann and not becoming a junkie whore), the game is still manageable, albeit with an unstable Aura with lots of stats and money. I think the sweet spot for difficulty is somewhere in that area, not full pure or full corrupted later in the game.

The requirement in the event is definitely 15, so that shouldn't be the case. Do you have a save?

There have been a few relationship-related bugs but they were fixed a while ago. Unfortunately if your save was made when those bugs were still current, the fixes don't apply retroactively.
You are aware that there is a NG+ system, right?
If you don't manage to complete the game, you can just take your progress and use it to buff your next run, making it that much easier.
I agree that Bad Ends would be an improvement by giving an early out in case corruption production is so fast, you can't even make it to the corruption ending. I plan to add some after 1.0 is completed. However, for 1.0 itself the resources aren't there.
Nearly two years ago I had the decision between either investing into adding at least one bad ending, the Maid Bad end, or financing the entire UI/UX overhaul. Together with the patrons of the time I came to the decision that bad ends were nice but not essential. And, on the other hand, that the UI improvements would create more overall value for the game since they are in effect at pretty much every point of the game.
Honestly, as the reveals come I'm starting to suspect that the pure-run endgame will be something far more fundamental to the setting than merely defeating the Demon King. For example, something to do with all those lost memories of the Heroes and Companions who fail. We saw how they could help Hero Alicia return if only for a while, and given how there won't be part-corrupted endings, the non-corrupted ending ensuring that Aura's true memories come back if they were altered would help explain the convergence. Or even beyond that… what if the connection between Roya and Earth can be retroactively broken or altered? If the entire cycle can be not just broken but outright made to have never happened?

are you sure it's going to trigger if you start below 15 and pick up the two +1 vice options to wind up with 15 or more before the last decision? i notice that vice before and after that event actually doesn't change for me regardless of choices, so it seems that those options might not be updating vice properly
if that isn't it let me know and i can upload a save but that seems to be the cause of the issue for me since i'm aiming to go in with 14, pick up +1 vice twice from the two choices and then have 16 for the third option, but after the event ends i'll still have only 14
edit - actually, the issue is more general: vice is not actually updating past 14 at all, including decisions from e.g. blackmailing the alchemist

This game is fucking fire. Easily an S tier. I'll leave a review when the game is completed and I've taken it all in but honestly this game blows me away more and more every hour I play it. Definitely will pay for it as well when it's done.
My only gripe is late game corruption (and maybe this is my fault because my first ever playthrough is on nightmare and it's not a perfect run) I feel like if you're going to make corruption come from like 50 different places, some of which are unavoidable, you need more places to spend it. Before I did the reverse summoning ritual I literally went like 20 in game days without a single place to spend any of my corruption in the mental world. After I finished with the ritual I am now sitting at 55 out of 56 corruption and still have nowhere to spend corruption except crystals that make me gain corruption even faster. I'm fine for now but if none of the crystals open up soon my run might unironically be softlocked. I can't even do more lewd acts to open up my crystals because those give corruption too lol.
It's not a HUGE deal I suppose but when you're playing on nightmare I feel like it gets out of hand very quickly, especially with the spiked blessed water prices.
