Sorry! A TON of code was changed, like, basically all of it. And it breaks a lot of things with super old saves. There was like 10 internal playtests since the last leakOLD SAVES DON'T WORK! Nooooooooooooo lol

You'd be surprised at the amount of people who don't even remember the names of the main characters or the most important plot points complaining about exactly this missing save they have no clue about anymore.one of my favorite statements on this site... 'Old save won't work'
HA HA ahhaa,, like i can even remember the game since i played it last
While I also thought that to be a typo, I wouldn't be surprised at this rate.100k new lines of Dialogue - 100K lines?
Did you put all LotR and Hobbit books in there? <.<
Aw , It's a great game so i don't mind restarting it.Sorry! A TON of code was changed, like, basically all of it. And it breaks a lot of things with super old saves. There was like 10 internal playtests since the last leak
I do agree that the exposition is a bit much, especially in the third story event. But I couldn't really figure any way to spread that out without taking too many events and without being super disjointed, so I went with just throwing it all at you, from then on its pretty smooth sailing I believeWhile I also thought that to be a typo, I wouldn't be surprised at this rate.
After this update finally dropping I decided to actually give this a spin and boy oh boy, the main story events vomit exposition at you at the start like you wouldn't believe. I'm no stranger to reading through stories in erotic games but man, the amount of verbal exposition given to you here gives the Metal Gear series a run for its money. I truly feel the amount of text from singular story event here could've been stretched out over multiple events instead and it would improve the flow of the game.
Noted friend.Its weird I just cant play this game due to the huge mc portrait in the corner. wish we could turn it off. Enjoyed the prior HS version of this.
can someone tell me how much content there is? i don't want to download 1.5 gigs and be done after 10 minutes
Depending on read speed... 3 to 5 hours maybe. Had some people fly through it, have also had some take forever. Even had one person yesterday take almost 4 hours to just get through the girls events and hadnt touched the main story. So it seems very variable
The problem is that the beginning of a story sets the tone and pace for future events. If a story flat-out bombards the reader with this much exposition right from the word "go", it makes it difficult to follow along and that kills investment, which might just turn people off entirely. Having a lot of exposition is not a bad thing mind you, but having it frontloaded like this is not helping the player who also needs to learn about the characters and their interactions first. After all, we are playing someone who is already quite familiar with all these characters, yet the player has to learn this dynamic from the ground up, which can take up more of their attention and not leave much for story.I do agree that the exposition is a bit much, especially in the third story event.

Valid option. It actually used to be every 3 in game days instead of 1, but people complained it was too slow.The problem is that the beginning of a story sets the tone and pace for future events.

If you cannot break up the story events to make the entry more gentle, another option would be to give the player the option to willingly trigger them when going to bed for example, instead of triggering them at set intervals. This way the player has the ability to chose when to pursue the story - after all, it is supposed to be a sandbox game
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

This is a bug that normally occurs by loading an old out of date save. Did you start a new one?Just got this error.

No but there was nothing in the first post about 0.1 saves not being compatible. Thanks.This is a bug that normally occurs by loading an old out of date save. Did you start a new one?
