Not all choices are impactful. Some might be, others not so much. Right now there are two big ones:

-joining the hunters or the witch
-fighting the duchess or asking for help


There's a replay gallery but it's out of date right now. The chapter 3 scenes are not there and the old ones still have animations.


You can impregnate your four love interests later and have fun in your own village but not with the succubus. They don't function the same as humans anymore.
Thank you very much

ado908 I read your review.
The series is going forward, not backwards like you said in your review.

It took 2 years to produce 3 chapters. Do think that's a good timeline? 2 years for 3 chapters?

I'm cutting down the optional and keeping what's important to deliver in a reasonable amount of time.

It's unrealistic to expect 40+ scenes per game fully animated in a good time frame while we have 20 games in mind.

I understand that you liked the animations, so did I. But this is not going backwards, this is being realistic about the project.

Chapter 4 is already in development. The full project will have 100 chapters.

5 chapters are one game, each era has 4 games. So each era (right now we are in the bronze era, chapter 21 will start with the medieval era) has 20 chapters. 5 eras in total are planned.

Question, in that case, what era is the warlock game considered part of? Unless it's just a spin off entirely and not cemented in the main story of Succubus Covenant (considering that the ship wasn't seen in it).

On that note, liked how the lore was kept between the games. Playing the warlock game was interesting given what I thought I knew about the lore and context from this one.

Warlock Saga takes place approximately 10 years before the start of Succubus Covenant. :)

I couldn't answer that without asking Zion first but I see someone else already helped you with that. =3 Personally I'm not that happy with the side story (maybe later when some connections make more sense or I see the greater concept behind it) but if it helps the dev to have something else to work on so he can collect more ideas for the main project or having a little breather from time to time... so be it.^^

Zion Will the generals get voice in english or only in japanese?
Voices will be in japanese only because it fits very nicely (imo japanese VA's really know their stuff if they stay in their culture and make the most out of it) and the current VA seems competent enough to deliver the sadistic nature of the succubus without going overboard.

I can feel the Greek influence from here...

So, I kind of fudged my save. I wanted to do one save for the "Wandering God" side of things, and one for the "Puritan Hunter" side. I'm not sure I have the patience to push through all of that again. Does anyone have a "Puritan route" save they'd be willing to share?

And, on the subject of the "Wandering God", I'm getting some G-Man vibes from him. His interest is stated to be "purely for his own entertainment," but, he's also a factor in the creation of the succubi. I get the sense that the Succubi Queen's power pales compared to his, yet he does nothing significant beyond help a single tribe of people in one corner of the world. Assuming his statement about the Queen herself being incapable of stopping him, I'm curious if he's something of a primordial entity manifesting in a form that the mortal races (and succubi) can comprehend. If not, then the question becomes "how weak are the existing tribes that one lone incubus can slap them down and not even need to break a sweat while doing it?"

I'm not a big fan of the plant demons in the forest, or the other demonic creatures. I feel like, with their placement, too much of the exploration becomes a grind to either avoid combat, or endure a battle with minimal reward to the player. I can't even entertain an argument along the lines of "w-well, they provide materials that are worth money," because, by the end of the current public version, I had more worms, spears, and money than I knew what to do with, and had yet to sell any runes. The tomes you get in the temples, the jewels you can mine, and the surplus of random gold chests make it pointless to farm anything beyond the first quarter of chapter 1. Even if you wanted to, the Sumer temples you can explore provide enemies whose rewards already outclass the plant demons' before you encounter the latter.

I did encounter Sumer chests that I hadn't found keys for, and no obvious hint as to where those keys could be. Maybe I have to backtrack?

I feel like part of my reluctance to replay the entire thing just to acquire an alternate endgame relates to the over-abundance of enemies blocking my path, and the lack of ability to avoid intrusive cutscenes. I get that you want to tell a narrative, but there are moments where I absolutely couldn't care enough about it. I like lore bits. I wish I could read them when I want a break from pulling weeds for the Hammerfell tribe, or punching Bloody Jaw tribesmen (who may all be Scots, ), rather than having to need a notebook and putting on a kettle for each cutscene.

Those issues aside, I am curious to see what the next chapter provides.
