I wouldn't say reducing the number of girls is the best way. If i was a subscriber I would probably suggest them to reduce the number of orgies and allow us to choose paths. I think it would work well with NLT games, due to how much scenes they can produce per update, it would work well for a multiple path game like BaDIK
I understand what you mean. The problem is that NLT is trying to make this a story-driven game series with one true path since the 1st game, Lust Epidemic. So every girl must participate and you the MC are just playing on rails with no real choice in the matter. Since BaDIK is a visual novel and is more focused on creating your own headcanon it works best that way since there is no true path to pursue. Unless NLT drops the horrible RPGMaker gameplay and system and turns the game into a Ren'Py visual novel I don't see it happening. So having fewer girls running around would mean that each of them gets more scenes in the end, with the inevitable orgies will all of them by the later half of the game.

not impressed Bancroft is in it, should be the nerd that invented the Syrum
He didn't invent it. Valerie mentions using the stuff long before he was around (iirc, back in HER college days).

Seriously, it ended up with only 84%?
Yes, because the rest is bonus material, like booty calls, extra pictures, etc. Kinda like how if you completed the story of ToN but didn't do extra stuff, the game was only about 80% complete (Second playthrough, I didn't do the bonus stuff and was confused the game was almost over when I was at 77% completion)


I’m not too worried about the protagonist; Bradley was a douche, yes, but then we got Henry and William, so it’s likely NLT got feedback on that front and chose to steer away from overly unsympathetic male leads. Perhaps Bradley will play a small part in the upcoming narrative, like Henry did in The Genesis Order, but I think the new game is more likely to focus on William again, or a new character.

My main gripe with continuing this series is that it’s starting to get a little formulaic. Treasure of Nadia had a lot of the same tropes as Lust Epidemic, but since the focus was so different (four main love interests vs. twelve), it still had a certain novelty to it; but The Genesis Order rehashed a lot of what Treasure of Nadia did: Heather takes over Janet’s role as the definitely-not-a-mother figure, Chloe is as Kaley in the role of definitely-not-a-sister-figure (who has trouble coming to terms with her sexuality), Hannah is more or less Alia with a bit of Tasha mixed in, Nellie is Claire, Kimura is Naomi, Judy is just Katherine from Lust Epidemic, etc., etc.

I don’t know if starting a new series (or just a standalone game) would encourage NLT to break away from recreating the same characters over and over, but at least it might lead to some more creativity regarding the setting and plot.

Things I am not looking forward to seeing in the new game:
  • Every sex scene ending in someone walking in them, to everyone’s embarrassment. For the love of God.
  • Villains swooping in to swipe the MacGuffin from the protagonists’ hands just after they’ve gone to great lengths to acquire it. It’s 2023 and people are still doing this?
  • Having to backtrack from the room at the far end of the labyrinth thirty floors underground to that one tower room on the fiftieth floor aboveground three times per plot event.
Anyway, I hope there’ll be a couple pregnancies featured in the upcoming content. Judy is confirmed, Hannah maybe (pleasepleaseplease), but I’d also like to see: Nellie (make Tasha a baby sister, heh), as well as Lillian and Arianna (those succubi were hawt, let me make more), and everyone else too, but Hannah and those three especially. Speaking of succubi, I wonder what happened with them …
Yeah, I was rather annoyed this game never introduced teleporters. While there are more ways to get anywhere, the map is convoluted enough for me to get turned around, particularly in either the mansion or the underground portions.

Bancroft isn't in the genesis order.

Ngl this game, at some point, started to bore the crap out of me...
Yeah, same here. I just stopped playing the updates altogether a while back. The same gameplay loop for three whole games was a bore. It'd be one thing if the sex scenes were interesting, and if the game had choices to make things interesting for the player, but it doesn't, and the sex scenes were just the same non-stop orgies and threesomes with most girl combinations in the back half of the game.

It's like once you get those few solo scenes in with the characters you like, then I know it's time for me to tune out, because it's all downhill from there.

Objectively speaking, the animations are really good and so is his update cycles, but it should be when all his contemporaries moved on to other engines, like Ren'Py, while NLT is still on that RPG Maker life and giving us the same game we've all played multiple times already.

I was hopeful that maybe this would be the end and something fresh would come from NLT, but it doesn't appear that way.

The next game really needs less girls, though. There's just too many and it's never satisfying if you're a fan of only a couple.

I mean, as far as I know, NLT didn't even have a solo sex scene with Chloe where she gets creampied by the MC. How do you leave that scene out when it's probably the one her fans are looking forward to most? I absolutely hate the way he did Chloe in this game.

Anyways, I'll still give the next game a look when it shows up here on F95 (will never support the guy or buy his games on Steam), but I won't play the same game again for the fourth time, so it's gonna be downloading completed saves only.

On the bright side Henry can see his father and Evie in Limbo and appear in the real world in a spectral form. (y)

Early on in this update, you go into the room with the portal and where you encounter William and there is a item that you pick up in top right - highlighted with a glowing blue spot - this is an Artefact Segment - can I check, is this just to be sold for gold - it wasn't used, I still have it.

Likewise there are a few things that I have not sold, just in case

King Idol
Artefact Segment
Unknown Relic (x2)

I also have a spare dumbbell left over - have had this for ages and was expecting to find two more to do a strength increase - my strength is 5

Also my intelligence is 5 - I have three old books - is it worth bumping up my intelligence - can it go any higher?

6 is max right now but do not bother if you are not going for 100% completion run
only increases money earned from artifact sales and mini games (basketball, shooting range)
i already have ove 20 k money with every possible thing bought
one home decoration and one unspecified item is ot the shop
they are for the next updates or not
not important

Herny: "Don't worry, I'm going to be a much better treasure hunter than my father, I definitely won't die."

......

Man his mom and sister are going to be pissed. Incidentally, I hope there's something that gives him a physical body again because otherwise I feel a little let down that a character we invested so much in just dies outright like that.

And yet, instead of making something new they are doing it again and i can't believe it. Another two years of the same shit we have been getting. The next game will probably have even less fans then TGO had but that's what happens when you keep releasing the same stuff over and over again.
I queried the trilogy thing on f95zone recently because I never saw NLT Media say anywhere that their last three games were a self-contained three-parter beginning with LE and ending with TGO. :confused: Never saw or heard anything like that anywhere from the developers themselves, although, maybe because a lot of fantasy/scifi gets rolled out in threes, e.g., Lord of the Rings, lots of players here (and elsewhere) appeared convinced that this was the developer's plan all along. :unsure: My understanding was that NLT Media were trying to develop a "universe" of games, each game representing a location in that "universe" with characters able to move fluidly between one game (location) to another, allowing old and new characters to meet and interact with each other in different locations (games) in various ways, with every game linked to every other game immediately or distantly historically. Just like the real universe the NLT Media "universe" was supposed to have no defined beginning or end and would continue to expand with every new game indefinitely. ;)

The prospect of a sprawling saga like this intrigues me, but I can appreciate why others might not feel the same. (y)

I'm on board with whatever the developers do because I appreciate the quality of their work, admire their industry, and am just plain old entertained by it. :) NLT Media are currently in the process of changing the way that their games are delivered to customers and so, unless a particularly generous Patreon supporter on the highest tier comes forward to share, or a cracked installer/updater/launcher becomes available on this site, The Genesis Order may well be the last NLT Media game ever to appear on this site for players to enjoy, hate, love, complain or gripe about for nothing. :cry:

I would enjoy it while you can if I were you. :p

I was hoping MC would take over Henry's harem, if he is dead anyway...

Out of luck....
