Eh, no, that was not what I was saying. I was reacting to someone saying that despite the practices in the game being unethical they learned something about psychology, and I replied saying that the authors create this overexaggerated context so as not to promote any of the real underlying practices.

Well, then my sarcastic post isn't that far off either. The game teaches you a little bit of psychology, albeit some facts are mixed in with 'harmful' (IRL), fabricated and manipulated ones. Just like in other areas, if you sponge the information with face value here without any prior knowledge, the half-truths will not properly educate you to put it lightly.

Agreed, no way will I humiliate someone then spank them and make them feel pleasure by whatever method that is perverted.
Lesson that can be learned here tho, is that this three factor; pain, humiliation and pleasure can change a person at their core. (Of course that's just one of the many methods)

A lot about psychology of students here is demonstrated fantastically and is somewhat realistic about the Insecurities, problems, and such of a students. The game demonstrates a way to solve them, in a perverted way of course but if you change the method it may bring the same results.

seems like im not the only 1 who cant progress because of missing influence points, would suggest not having the game be softlocked because you cant complete any quests

That might lead to other issues though, since right now the influence points aren't really points you grind out (like e. g. discipline) but hard tied to story progression. Which in turn could mean if you allow to go "2 points early" or suchlike, the story connection breaks (best case) or other in game stuff doesn't work anymore because of missing flags (worst).

So this happens for every call for 'sc', that being Susan Chang, what i cannot understand it where the b' comes from, using unren to check the script all her lines are called by the usual 'sc', not 'b'sc' and having a look at the 'ast.py' file the error page shows makes no mention of a b' either, so i can't even figure out what to self edit to get it to work, all i'm left with is hitting ignore a bunch of times and reading the text from the vsixteen.rpy i pulled out previously.

I understand but when the alternative is not being able to progress because literally every quest is locked behind something you can't get, I feel like that's worse than what could happen, I understand this is wip but for something so important to the game, it should not be something that can be broken, I tried looking at the guide for help, going specifically to chapter 2 but that thing is also just as useless (instead of being a guide it just seems to copy paste the in game text, not actually a guide, & more of a regurgitating paper)

I suppose that the failure to get the right amount of influence points by making 'bad/wrong' choices could be developed into a Game Over bad ending type thing I guess as well.

I believe these are back to front, i checked and pulling them down sets them to 'didn't look' and taking her word sets it to 'looked'.

Edit: the drinking game with Lily and same has the same issue, drinking to q4 sets the flag for 'drink' to false, not true, and q5 flags are reversed.

Not sure if I'm missing a Group Medical event or if the Replay menu shows events that are not available yet:

 

[jaketsu]

Love Archipelago events are all bugged for some reason, started a new save, every time one of the girls from the show would say a line it returns an error. You can ignore the error until the event ends but you can't see anything.

Same Issue here. New save and i got this error when i went for this event for the very first time. Any fixes known?

Known issue from the beta. A fix has been released on patreon for some of the more common bugs in this release. I don't know if this is one of them. There will be a proper release within the next 3 weeks or so and then a public one. By then there should certainly be a fix.

 

[Adi716]

will Mac get updated ?

 

[TheDevian]

will Mac get updated ?

Probably not until they are out of beta.

 

[cardinal11]

I didn't see anyone else with this issue, but I wound up soft-locked by saving after private punishing max level Amy. There's no error or anything, just whatever option I choose after ending the punishment dead ends on an image of Amy. I can open and close all the character/quest things or scroll back, but even scrolling back into the punishment and resetting it just brings me back to the same place. I'm assuming whatever function is supposed to advance the story is broken, since skipping also didn't do anything.

She's like some kind of sexy Thanos meme ("and where did that bring you? Right back to me.")

Do the twins have any lewd scenes throughout the game yet?

We're out of beta, we're releasing on time. So I'm GLaD I got burned, think of all the things we learned for the people who are still alive. *sing*

 

[VINDETTA 23333]

We need a hero (v 0.16.2)

We're holding out for a hero 'til the end of the beta
