i like the game overall but like many others say.. it its alot more grind in this one and the mana cost and coin cost is to high, mana potions cost to much to be able to use the magic with that high mana cost and we can only get 30 coins from chests with no other way to get coins that i know of, the items in the stores also cost to much and give very little.. i used a save editor to get more coins though so i could enjoy the game better, just needed to unequip the stuff to get the gameover scenes :D

i liked SC more though, will we be able to summon succubuses later in SC aswel perhaps ?

Believe me, you have so much money right now that you don't know what to do with it. Just sell the stuff that you gain after defeating enemies. :)

There are so many reason why it doesn't work to summon a succubus in the mains series that I could sit here all day explaining why is a bad idea.
Aeolos can't feed a succubus like Kaalim does. He doesn't have slaves nor is e part of any organization. And his enemies are demons, that succubi can't feed upon.
Plus, their ways of life are completely different.

My brain immediately imagined that this would be a game where you play as a succubus and influence the events in the life of a warlock.
Not disappointed, but now I really want a succubus god game.

I think people are seeing this game with the wrong perspective, this is more like an RPG storyteller game with porn and sex scenes, however, in this site people look just for porn games so you won't find the people with the perspective this game aims for. I'm pretty sure 80% of the people skips the story parts and the books/scrolls you find around the world.

The lore is good, but when you read some scroll or whatever you are overwhelmed with names (people, city, worlds, species) and they are so weird. I can't remember who "Ashtari of Cunnilingus figher of the Zucchini battle, king of Whatever land" is and it keeps throwing weird names I won't read because I won't remember them and because of that I feel that I lost track on the lore.

Game is good, here are some considerations:

- The MC really is very variable in his attitude, behaves like a romcom anime MC, he's the only "comical" in the whole game, feels like he's out of place.
- Please, cut the merchants dialogue after the first time you've interacted with them or maybe after you've completed certain part.
- The game needs a 'current quest' or 'what to do' menu because if you skip the important dialogues or you stopped playing and came back after a few days you wouldn't remember where are you or what do you need to do.
- Sometimes the screen freezes but the game keeps running, a weird glitch that made me fight all the mercenaries two times.
- The mercenaries part is repetitive and waiting for the attack animations can get tedious.
- Interaction with the summons is flat but honestly I don't know how it can be improved.
- Sprites merge with the background and is difficult to find them, especially the lady Ishtar one.

I think everybody is hoping for a crossover between side games and the main game, hope that's a primary objective because it would be cool if the MC interact with each other. Maybe we'll be able to encounter a succubus from the main series in WS?. Keep the great work, been following this game for a year now!

I personally am quite enjoying this despite it being kinda grindy. If this is the worst the grind will be I will have no problem. That being said, I have two questions.

1. Can you safely sell hellish and divine essence? I can't find anything to do with them other than that.
2. Is there a plan for more stuff with the ice vendor in the future? Her design is fantastic.

Yes to both. :)
I'm glad you enjoyed the game!

It's true that I throw too much lore, but this will eventually be investigated in quests and be part of the universe.
It won't be something just for the sake of being there.
So when people actually play (those who care for the story ofc) that part of the lore and re-read the book again they will understand way better.

For example, like it happened to me in Elder Scrolls
I was overwhelmed by the lore at first, then it became easier for me as it was slowly being added into the world.

I read your review! Thanks for the in depth explanation!

And about the last part, yes, this game is focused on the villains.
I know you stopped playing because of the severity of The Veil's actions, but I hope you can come back to it at some point to get another perspective in the world of SC.

I have great plans for The Veil in this whole series, including the main series. You can say that they are like the templars of assassin's creed to the world of SC.

So understanding their motives and story would make it worthwhile when facing them in future games.
You will know their story and will make a confrontation more impactful.

The reason why Ishtar ordered the poisoning is explained by her and later shown when they talk to the Emir.
She wanted to step in to "cure" the region. Not the people. Putting her own soldiers and farmers loyal to the Veil there, after the extermination of the population.

I thank you for taking your time to review the game. It was a pleasure reading it!

There are some really entitled people posting on this thread, picking at the small things..

Just enjoy the game, so much content for a first release. it's defo worth a few faps lol

Cheers Zion~!
Sorry I wasn't aware that being critical of something was entitled XD I guess I'd better just calmly accept everything in life no matter the quality or my opinion of it. I wouldn't want to be seen as a snob .. It's not like I pulled my petreon support for this guy because of this or anything.

I actually was making my own game at one point you know. You know what one of the most frustrating things about doing it? Not getting any honest criticism. Most people who love the game are just supportive. Most people who hate it don't say anything. Or just slate it or say "it's crap." Having someone take the time out of their day to tell them exactly why they have a problem with your game in a constructive and civil manor is something any developer should want. Period.

Really nice start for the game, the main character being the embodiment of "Are we the baddies?" is very amusing so far, the art looks really nice and i absolutely love the amount of details that there are in the areas. The small niggles i have (merchants repeating their lines in full everytime for example) i feel exist only due to trying to make something presentable ASAP. Best of luck on your project!
