Well, as french too, I always find strange somes expressions or words used by Hope. It's like he speak french.
big exemple: Serpent and not Snake. There is other words more french than english in the contex but needed to replay to find them lol.
I play the english version, not the translate one.
Serpent is a perfectly proper English word for describing a great terrifying snake-like predator. Latin roots aside, there's nothing really non-English about that.

What would have made thing even better would be instead of calling them Serpent, call them Biscione.

I would have thought it was so good in the French version.
If there are French people who speak very good American or English on this thread, come in private, I'm looking for a proofreader for my game.

J’aurais pensé qu’il l’était tant les dialogues sont de bonnes qualités dans la version française.
Si il y a des français qui parlent très bien l’américain ou l’anglais sur ce thread, venez en privé, je suis à la recherche d’un proofreader pour mon jeu.

Start a new game or load a save before you played them. Sorry only solution I have for you.

No. No. As a native english from canada, you would not call them the 4 snakes. That would sound silly and a little childish. In that context it has to be serpent.
my guess is because they're "Mafia", so, Mafia = Italia / Serpent = more like "latim"

Man Deluca Femily has such a story that would look cool in anime formet- I've already mentioned to the Dev that it feels like Black Lagoon at times and some of the characters are similar. Luna is pretty much Ravy, same tragic back story of abuse and both are kick ass gunslinger Females, The Male MC being their so called savior that is their ancor. While in Black Lagoon rock the Male MC is also getting corrupted, the MC here in still unknown. What I would like to see, is other female bad asses that either are friends with luna or are her competition, like Revy and Roberta.

The second anime that I rememberd that gave me the same feeling as this game is an underrated mafia Gem named Gangsta, that has the similar feel and asthetic to this game. Where you have similar femily warfare.

What I really want to see in this game is more Edge and Drama. More action Quantin Trantino style, and similar bad ass male characters to befriend and to be competetive with. I know I digress, but Gangsta had one of the most badass disabled people inclusion.

I've said it but love the story, love the build up, Love Luna, Corodia and Garcie. Love the asthetics.

I don't know what about you, but I always imagine the cast speaking in Italian between themselvs.

Here is Gangsta opening, Recommend it to all anime lovers here, along sides Black Lagoon which is a classic.

As far as I remember, Hopes had the idea of making this game inspired by a turkish tv series.

And calling someone a snake usually refers to them being deceitful and treacherous while calling someone a serpent refers more to someone who's vigilant, cunning and dexterous. At least, in my opinion ;)

I talked to him and he was surprised it has similrities to Black Lagood, and I suspect he watched it since I recommended it to him and he was intreasted.

Luna and Ravy are very similar.

It's released on Patreon but hasn't been leaked here yet, it can take up to week sometimes (sometimes even longer)
It is release on Patreon since three days. If you want to have you only need to donor 30$ (at this time). And if you want, you could then leak the game on site like this.
There is one more. If no one of the patrons leaks the game, Hopes makes it public in some weeks ahead.

Okay, so I've done a replay to refresh myself and, happily, learning of an incipient release. This is an enormous thread, and even with 'search', I'm sure much of my coming musings have been hashed over, but tough - gonna do it anyway. Some things have stood out for me that I haven't really noticed much commentary.

1. The Contract (MC's, not the mission). I realize this may simply be a device, but that would clash with the rest of the thoroughness. Gracie takes pains to point out it means he's a hostage. Yet he's obviously not treated this way.
Even Blackie of the Praefictoris seems to view him as more than a run-of-the-mill debt. Those who learn his as-yet-unrevealed secret are impressed. So the big question is: "Who?" "Why?" Yes, I realize those of obvious immediate answers (either/both parents, a debt), but I thnk that's too simplistic. So let's dive back further.

2. His Mother. He hates her ("a demon of a mother") and much is made of her abuse, but I think that's far too easy a word for it. I mean...obviously everything in this story is awful when looked at from an external view, but in the context, I don't think so (hey, Gildart, how many fingers do you still have??). The one scene where we saw her (the poisoning flashback), she seemed loving and dedicated. All the abuse was her preparing him for the life to come - and it's already paid off, saving his life when he was poisoned *at the Deluca's dinner table*. Plus, there have been multiple other attempts on his life. The MC has always been a high value target.

His Mother was a Serpent - a legend. Yet it seems she didn't 'cash it in' like Cordia did. Heck, even Giacombe got a Family (nbo, he's not a serpent, but he helped). I assume the Serpents became Kingmakers and shook up the establishment and pretty much, could have each won a plum position. So why not Rina? Maybe it's his Father, but he always gets dismissed as a dead-beat of sorts (which of course means he's more central). People don't like him, but to MC it's indifference - not any of the loathing he has for his mom.

Rina and Cordia were obviously close. People seem to like her, in contrast to MC's view.

3. Which brings us back to the contract. Serpent says, "Don't be too saddened when you find out why." Interesting bit of sympathy from such a formidable figure. He's under contract, but he's allowed to join the Family (and family). Eiza is more of a known quantity and sure thing (even the Delucas know MC is a wild card), yet she'll have to wait until her contract is completed to ask to join.

4. So what's the deal with the MC? Even tho' he's seemingly under-skilled, even the Capos are solicitous of him, and presumably they don't know the real deal. Maybe it's because the family took him in, but that doesn't seem to jive much with their stature and reps (except Caterina!).

In the home stretch now....

I think the MC knows far more than he's letting on, not just to others, but to us, the players/audience. He seems like a downright doofus sometimes, but at other times he is far more assured and decisive. Some examples:

- to Fawkes, about Luna: "She's dear to me, therefore I allow it." That is one hell of a presumptious thing to say!
- Jalen comments about how utterly unfazed ('bored') he is in the Kaskar household, which even the Crown Prince admits has a deservedly rotten reputation.
- His inner dialogue breakdown of the protection levels around Siobhan Ombra - far more knowledgeable than he's ever displayed before. Moreso than even the two Capos with him (although they're both kinda lunatics)
- His duel with Fawkes. Everyone talks about how atrocioius his aim is, but in a high-stress situation, he manages to hit a tiny target at least a half dozen times out of 19 shots. Fawkes is MUCH bigger. He could easily have hit him. And he planned to do this.
- He impresses numerous people with his maneuvering, from Fawkes, to the quasi-Capo, to Gildart and more.
- he has NO problem seducing the two daughters of a top 5 Family, as well as the heir-apparent's wife.

I submit he is FAR more than even we, the players, are being shown or hinted at, and, tying into the contract stuff, is A Really Big Deal. Maybe his Midichlorian count is off the charts and he'll bring balance to the criminal network, or something. Maybe the contract is one of protection, and not debt. Winfred and the Gents have been scouting him for years (decades?), and even they are constantly surprised. Perhaps even Rina is the one who exacted the contract from Cordia. (that's just speculation).

I'm sure lots of folks are going, "Well, duuuh," but hey, I enjoyed musing on it.l Either way, it's a really fun ride.
