When I first planned Tides, it had 10 or something planned Love Interests. However, I soon realised that with the amount of branching I wanted to have, 10 LIs was definitely not sustainable. So I cut it down to 3 LIs and designed some sequels for a few of the LIs.
Thanks for the long insight into your development process
Indeed, even the best plans or intentions sometimes fall short when faced with reality.
Maybe you can still add them as "mistresses" in certain endings. This way they won't be completely removed, but they won't need a dedicated path or too much effort on your part. In ancient times and in many mediaeval-inspired fantasy settings, the ruler having a mistress (whether the wife is aware or not) is usually considered socially acceptable. especially as a 'fallback' in case no heir survives into adulthood.
to much heavy impact decisions at the beginning for my taste
do i flirt with kasula even if i dont know how the lorelei marriage part evolve?
will this a political marriage or not at all if i am at kasula path?
do i trust and work with glade or confront henricus?
(you missing a very crucial story part/info if not confront henricus - to much info lost for my taste)
the romance maybe will slow burn - but the story isn't at all -imo
the point i am trying to make is - we dont know enough about the story to make a decision this early
aaaaaaaaaand - where are the freckles for my new favorite redhead

Agree. So many new games which I'd like to help by pledging on Patreon, but I'm chronically short of funds. I'll have to introduce some rotation because, as of lately, I find many more promising games than in the past.
Family is a core aspect of every single ending in Tides. As such, impregnation is not avoidable. Pregnancy content (ie, sex with a pregnant woman) will occur
you can... presuming you're using the Google docs link in the OP. There's a menu option on the top left side to save, and you can chose what format you want to save the file as, including PDF (File / Download / [choose format]).
After having taken her out for Dinner and wishing her a good night, scene switches to the Lorelei Betrothed path in her room. I didn't use any mod or made any modification myself to the script or variables with the console. I was closely following the WT and I still have open the Explorer / Trust / Throuple paths (because up to this point they're not mutually exclusive).
PS: I'm not on the Lorelei love path anymore; oddly the WT doesn't mention it as a prerequisite for the Throuple.
