RPGM Completed Star Knightess Aura [v1.2.1] [aura-dev]

[RussianSissyAlice]

I figured it was added on later. The thing is, Roya is not made up, it's not fantasy, it's not dreamland, it's a real land where Richard is killing millions of people. Killing one person, even if you end up going to jail for it, would certainly we worth it to save millions of lives. And you can see how carefree Richard is. He is too cocky to ever assume anyone would do anything against him. He is very much a caricature of a human being, at least for now.

I would have preferred he was generic evil demon lord, at least you expect the nature of a demon to be that. But he is a human so self involved that he thinks almost anyone else is not human? And also thinks killing millions of people to have some chick that is smarter than him be his sex slave? This dude doesn't deserve the win, he is too pathetic. I'm going along with the corruption for now because it's fun but I won't be losing the fight to his sorry ass, no matter how many scenes I miss because of it.

Killing one person for the sake of many? You would see such choices in the future quest. Considering how such sacrifice brings Corruption I see it as an evidence that such thing is against Aura's ideals.

And I wouldn't go into spoilers, but you would learn more about Richard and there would be a reason why in my opinion Richard wouldn't ignore such possibility of assasination. Right now for him it's a game in Roya. If Aura starts this war in the real world - he would start acting in real world too. Not good

O, I am sure if he gets wind of what she wants to do, he can do real harm in the real world. But at the start he is very unsuspecting. At least he appears to be so. Anyways, we are getting side-tracked . I know killing the main villain would not make sense for the game, I was just saying he was so annoying for me that I would totally do it. Maybe it was better if it was included as a bad ending where you end up in jail, just to satisfy my desire to kill that little self assured dweeb.

P.S.
Is there any way to see what your relationship which character is? It keeps saying -5, +1 , -1 but I couldn't see a screen where I can see what the current value is. Nvm, It was the dolls. Any idea on what I listed below?
In fact I don't know any all the values needed for corruption thresholds like popularity, number of compliments.

 

[ihl86]

One more question, is is possible to progress her corruption without changing the studying and computer programming parts?
I don't want any spoilers for the story if this involves that, only if it's possible or not, because if it is possible I would prefer to do it that way and not make her be second to Richard at some point in studying.

Nope.

To progress, you will eventually have to do pretty much all mental changes. There are a few optional mental changes and a few at the very end you might be able to skip and still reach the bad end.

 

[smkey21]

Is becoming Arwin maid to enter the festival just going to lead me into the maid ending and can't progress further? all these advantages you can get being his maid but i can't seems to find a way to overcome the willpower check when confronting him

There are a number of factors that control the outcome of using Arwin to access the festival, and the quick answer is that if you always took the performance option during training you're pretty much locked in. If you didn't then it'll depend on how corrupted Aura is.

If you continue to gain corruption you will eventually run into a roadblock where Aura needs to have both those interests changed. I have no idea what the limit of mental change progression is before you hit that point as I've never put off both those changes for as long as possible. If you're planning on fully corrupting her it's something that'll eventually have to happen.

I was more referring to even getting to her second chamber. For now I am pretty close to not being sure what to do. I think I have one more thing and after that will be stuck unless something else pops up.

Also, Is there anywhere where I can see what my armor is already enchanted with? I noticed doing the same enchantment twice doesn't give the bonus again but I'm not sure what I already put into it.

If you're talking about infusing materials into gear then that's not tracked, but you can certainly infuse the same material more than once and get the stats. If you're talking about applying oils and such then that's all shown in the skills menu. There are also items that give buffs, and you can see those individually in the item menu.

As for studying, I'm almost certain you have to have removed at least one of the studying books before you can access chapter 2 corruption stuff, and I think requires both. I'm honestly a bit hazy as there was originally an extra book to remove, and that's when I did the majority of my exploration of corruption routing. It's something I'll have to get back into at some point I guess. remove rose any% speedruns loom in the distance.

I was talking about infusing materials. I am so blind )). I somehow read for mushrooms max hp instead of max mp and saw it didn't grow. And so I thought it only worked the first time. Thanks so much for clearing that up, I was going to miss up on so many stats.

 

[mmno]

How do I solve this? It appears every time I want to use Chronicle Recording Crystal, I'm on the cell phone version.

 

[Davkin]

Defeating the last boss (Richard).

There are minor variations on the ending based on corruption level and such.

Even if MC is corrupted fully? (all unlockable corruption done in the mind room?)

 

[boringapocalypse]

What's the criteria for "good ending"? Is it event triggered or based on corruption level?

There are actually two branches of victory ending, a pure(ish) one (victory ending A) and a somewhat corrupt one (victory ending B), with each having variations depending on Aura's stats and your choices. I think even the game-over bad corruption ending also has variations/extra scenes based on the state of the game world?
I actually got the "pure" ending with Aura having very high lewdness score, and it definitely changed at least one scene a lot.

 

[SgtCrise]

Ridiculously well made game with interesting mechanics and good slow burn, but god damn I HATE the villians. The dev really cooked, I never wanted to dismember a fictional character this hard. Which also makes it feel horrid to side with them in Aura's brain.

 

[Zarkhy]

Well, doing the final mental change triggers the bad end, so you can't do that.

Also, I haven't tried it with everything unlocked, but I'd assume Richard would be pretty hard to beat with all the passives and whatnot that you would have.

Interestingly, they added a NG+ mode where you can spend 50 points to have all the mental change stuff happen automatically+hidden from the player for a 50% bonus to your score at the end. I am debating whether to attempt this or ironman mode first...eventually hope to have enough NG+ bonuses to do a totally clean run maybe.

Well, to be honest, there's not a lot of freedom of what can be done in Aura's head. Most things seem to be chained one after another, so you have a general idea of what's going on. And on NG+ you aren't wasting as many days and gaining as much corruption because you know where to go and what to do. Still, for a game that seems very sandboxy at first, it doesn't feel like it actually is. There seems to be a certain sequence of going through quests and especially combat.

I really do hope there's a good ending somewhere in the future. Never understood the reason to pure route those games, but regular route is kinda infuriating. Alicia is too well written, an absolute cunt and then some.

I passed the final check doing this route by using emerald tea to get my willpower to max. But I didn't get all the bonuses, so I'm not sure if it's possible to lock it even when at max will.

Hahaha, so nice to find another person feeling the same as me. I am just now getting to the festival so I am still at the beginning but I really don't like Alicia and Richard. Richard seems worse to me, but he is way less present in the day to day stuff at least for now. And so Alicia is now really gross. Her as Luciela is not so bad, to be honest, she reads a lot like a succubus, but as Alicia herself with all the bullying and crazy psychopathic, thinking man oh man.

And this game is nothing close to a sandbox. It plays like most rpgs, with little freedom in what you can do in terms of quest order and stuff. And I mean here normal games, not 18+ ones. You do however have freedom in how you solve those quests, that's where the player input is coming in and I'm ok with that.

If you get enough negative passives from working as Arwin's maid, you can't pass the ending check even at 100 Willpower and 0 corruption.

Just went through the entire Festival and lost at the very last fight somehow (SK+MDef buff, removed Mdef debuff, still got a tonn of damage). That still leads to happy maid ending. They really couldn't cram more boss fights into that sequence FFS.

BTW the skill "Desiderium" is a physical attack not a magical one and can crit. shoulda used cry of the rooster on him. you can also dodge it by being in advantage state i think? (snake bit him the turn he winds up). Though when I fought him in previous versions he seemed a non-threat in SK mode even when after I did a couple arwin maid events so IDK maybe he changed.
