There is a bug with glossary. Having finished the game when you load an old save the inquisitor and his son already have a line about their fate in the end

Pacifism =/= being the goodest girl who ever did do good, even if that's how most games/stories portray it as. It just means not killing. Some deaths are worse than others and death is debatably not even the worst thing that can happen to someone.

For instance, the guy your talking about was dying of an abdominal wound which would take a while for him to die of and in pain all the while. With his corpse being left for the beasts. The mercy kill and honoring of his last request for his body to not feed the beasts is a bit morally complex and feeds some of your darkness to gain some strength from it but it is balanced out by asking the man if he wants it. Thus 1 darkness and 1 balance. Also you get 2 darkness if you don't even engage in conversation with him and 1 humanity for talking to him to get to the choice between just killing him or offering the mercy kill.

I don't see how that is strange.

Leaving him to die in pain is worse than putting him out of his misery. Of course letting him suffer and ignoring him would gain more darkness points.

Being a total pacifist isn't always the correct choice. You can do it but it's not always going to be right.

I gave my heroine a name - Sehaniel, the goddess of death, patroness of the moon elves

Instinct Unleashed was great! I am looking forward to this.

 

[Vile_Mage]

I just check it and damn another game worthy of waiting. The prolong was a whole episode. I have played games with episodes shorter than that. Great job. The renders, the plot, the characters everything was top notch in my book.

I played the prologue in Russian. It's well-written and the narrative is like a good old fantasy novel. The MC is simply incredible. Jade from the previous game was good, but my Sehaniel (canonically Rhiannon) is much more multifaceted. I especially liked that our favorite author gave us the option to act as anyone would (kill them and forget, or leave them alive but with a personality disorder—which will affect the future). Irsha is incredible, domestic as a cat, but playful like a succubus. Rosanna was a good secondary character, not an empty shell, but even with some kind of backstory. And at the end, there was a girl with blue pupils, she looks like an elf, and something tells me... she doesn't have a dick between her legs (I don't remember the name of the effeminate elves in this game). I hope she becomes the mainly character, something tells me she'll be interesting. The render quality is much, much better than in the previous game. I especially liked the render style, it looks like an "old, musty book with ancient writings." Everything looks great. The animation quality...well, they're not worse than in the previous game, i wouldn't call them the best I've seen, but still, not bad. The story is also great, even though it's just a prologue and introduction to the characters and lore. It looks like an expensive fantasy story (or movie) that you want to read (or watch). Verdict: well, 9-9.5/10, -1 (-0.5) points for the animation quality, which doesn't match the amazing quality of the renders. I hope the animations improve, but even so, the game looks incredible.

I hope the update rate won't be any slower than in the previous game (they were released quite frequently and with a lot of content, 1 update/1 chapter).

This prologue has been outstanding, honestly. Render quality, the atmosphere brought by the music and the ambience, the characters, the writing... IU was already a fantastic work, but at this rate, this is going to be beyond top-notch.

Quick question:

I've unlocked all achievements and also made different choices to see the possible outcomes. To my understanding, the only lewd scene in the prologue is the one with Rosanna, right? There's a category for Irsha in the gallery, but it also states 0/0 opened, so I'm assuming that while that's where her scenes will go, you don't do anything with her in that regard as of yet, right? I want to know if I'm missing something or if there's a specific set of choices I need to make in the game to unlock the scene.

Overview:
UNDAWN: Shackles Of Eternity is a dark fantasy adult visual novel.
This is a story set in a world where light and shadow have long since merged, and truth depends only on who holds the greater power. There are no righteous sides here, no heroes in shining armor. Even the purest intentions can turn into disaster, and the most obvious choice may open the door to something far worse.
At the center of it - Rhiannon. Her past is veiled in shadow, and her present is a journey through a world where faith is twisted and hope comes at too high a price. She is beautiful yet cold, intelligent yet distant — and it is through her eyes that the story unfolds. Rhiannon is no savior, but neither is she a monster; she is someone who has lived in the dark for too long to still believe in simple truths.
Undawn explores themes of power, betrayal, immortality, and the cost of choice. There are no easy answers, and every step may change everything around you.​

Wow

 

[Cajun Fox]

Thanks for the share

 

[wivers]

Is there a scene gallery to unlock besides Rosanna? I have another locked icon showing (for Isha?), but I cannot find a corresponding scene.

Considering that that folder has a (0/0) label on it, I have to say that there isn't anything for her yet.

 

[longjohngold]

I have a weakness for demonic gals, including vampy types, dark elves and the like. I also certainly don't object to the joys of dickgirls. So this is looking promising. Last game by the dev was solid, super hot MC, though it didn't always hold my attention. This is looking like a step up visually at least and so far the setting, worldbuilding and whatnot has my interest.

Ok, so this is very well written, looks very nice - models as well as surroundings, deep-lore, sex scene is good in general, for me it is a plus that the MC has both pussy and cock, not just cock and this is really dark in the sense that already in the prologue you get to do really evil shit if you want

Spoiler: evil shit

Now to one thing I think could be improved: While I do like the stone cold resting bitch face of the MC, to go with her antediluvian ennui and uncaring/unfeeling attitude, I think that she should break that while having sex. That might just be my preference and others might like if the MC looks like she isn't affected by the sex in any way (not taxing, not pleasurable, not anything), but I like to see the pleasure/physical strain be shown in her features and the sounds she makes. Makes it even better when paired with the otherwise bored resting bitch face expression she has going one.

And a final question (which I might ask in the development thread as well): Will the darkness of the game extend to the sex as well, meaning, will the MC be able to employ questionable/evil means of having sex (force/blackmail/powerplay/stuff like that)?

 

[Toubib]

Loved UI. Hopefully we get an android port for this soon

None of those are tagged or planned so I very, very highly doubt it.

Doubt it's needed to get her laid either.

 

[MisterNephilim]

Futa protag hell y... wait... Kind Nightmares? oh HELL yeah.

 

[sabadongelov]

What's tagged at the moment is irrelevant, as tags should reflect what is in the game at the moment, not future content.

I did go to the development thread to view the planned tags and it doesn't have tags like rape, blackmail or the like, then again it doesn't even have the planned tag vaginal sex and that is already in the game, nor does it have the tag domination, yet the dev talks about having domination in the game. And on top of that, it does have the planned tag netori, which I would consider part of the "dark" side of sexual tags.

Doubt it's needed to get her laid either.

I'm sure not, but that's neither here nor there. The MC doesn't need to murder children either, yet that is already included as a choice in the game...

Witnesses and potential future problems.

Plenty of reasons to murder the kid.

She's had over 1000 years of killing people. She doesn't value their lives at all.

I just don't see Kind adding anything like rape, doesn't seem their style nor does it seem the MC's.
