Lord Hammerdick's wife have some interesting tastes, if you remember his conversation with Myrtle when she becomes a toymaker. That's the other point of the story where she's been mentioned
I haven't gotten to that point in my replaythrough yet, but IIRC the implication of that conversation is that Hammerdick is using that spiked dildo on *himself*, not for his wife. Which is way funnier. My memory of that exchange is fuzzy though so apologies if I'm just remembering it wrong.

I'm not deeply tied to any one gal yet, but of those we have seen so far I'm interested in seeing more around Goldenbush and on the side stories that I want more of Gretta (Waldo's hopefully soon to be exwife)

Of who we have; Holly then Lana. Hopefully Rose will be in this list soon as I am intrigued, but right now in 5.01 she's OK. I am looking forward to a replay from fresh when 6 drops.

What the creator of "Love of Magic" has to say about the development time of What a legend. It's quite a good summary of what a lot of people have been saying here these past months here and I thought It'd be a nice add to the discussion.

All fun and stuff until you find out people who cry the most won't read anything in there and mostly go around the thread(s) moaning "20k a month, a year in dev = milking and the devs are hot garbage". They don't care it takes a month per scene when you gotta draw everything, in a 2 people team. All they see is 0.5 came out 10 months ago, devs are making phat $, therefore they suck at life, are milking (even though they pay back your pledge at the end of the month if you feel you didn't get enough out of it) and every1 who says otherwise is a sheeple that promotes said milkage ..... Basic reasoning and/or common sense is too abstract for them

True.
They don't even recognise that, when they accuse the dev of earning big, it's £7,591 pcm pre-tax, pre-Patreon deductions & then / 2.
So, £7591 - 8% Patreon = £6,938 -20% (rough tax) = £5,586 / 2 = £2,793 take home per month, each.
Not sure where they live, or what the cost of living is there, but I don't think they're exactly rolling in it.

Reading and maths is too abstract for the entitled whingers, too.
The $/month shown is after Patreon takes their cut though

£33.5k p/a.

They live in Spain (I don't know the exact place, so their living costs may vary greatly), but they still have to take away around €300 each for the mandatory National Healthcare insurance for self-employers (could be even more if they choose to get a better deal than the legal minimum). As I said before, they are earning an above average salary but they are not getting filthy rich by any means.

And the thing many people still don't get is that, had they chose to work at the same rate they are doing it right now but in order to release shorter and faster updates, they could be getting even more money since more frequent updates means more exposure and new patrons signing in after each release. Or what if their highest Patreon tier were bigger than €20?

lol Yeah, I was looking at another Patreon page for a game I enjoy & saw their top bracket was £49/€58.
I was shocked at that, but even more to hear this game's is so much lower.
But yeah, let's ignore all these clear facts and accuse the devs of milking.
Makes perfect sense. :LOL::ROFLMAO:

Let's see, girls I'm most interested in:

- Dear Celestina. Sure, it's weird that she's just a hallucination caused by a pair of magic glasses that are probably possessed by a succubus, and the actual Celestina is a horrible old hag, but I'm a simple person with simple tastes. Booba. My favorite character in anything in terms of sex appeal is always going to be the one with the biggest booba, unless a lot of other factors are working against her and in favor of some other girl. So long as Dear Celestina is the character with the biggest booba, I'm going to anticipate her update letting us get to play with them. (Plus, magicnuts has posted here mentioning that in her storyline, they plan to "decouple" her from the real Celestina, so Dear Celestina becomes a person who actually exists and not just you fucking the old hag while under an illusion spell, so the main problem with her is something that's going to go away. Exactly how I'm not sure, maybe the demon in the glasses getting free and transforming into her?) But they intend to add a lot more girls to this game before it's over so, who knows, she might be dethroned as the Booba Queen and if she loses that then her appeal goes way down.

- Gretta. Gretta combines two of my favorite tropes: An older woman who's kind and motherly toward you (she even likes to cook!), and stealing a hot wife away from her asshole of a husband. (Though, the netori here is less appealing than it could be, because Waldo seems all but uninterested in her. It feels like you're taking his unwanted leftovers rather than stealing something precious to him.) Her being the runner up for the Booba Queen doesn't hurt matters either. If she had boobas of Dear Celestina's size, she'd take the #1 spot easily.

- Serana. My favorite trope wrt domination is all about power reversal, the dom character taking an attractive person who has power over them normally and turning them into their sex slave. A student subjugating their teacher, for example, or a commoner subjugating a noble. (Lana is royalty too, but an important ingredient to make this power reversal satisfying is the person with power lords it over the protagonist until the reversal happens. You don't even find out Lana is nobility until quite a ways into the story and even then, she never uses her noble title to bully you. Serana uses her nobility and magic powers to bully you right from the start.) Now, unfortunately, this game is quite vanilla, so I don't expect the story to go in quite the direction I want, with Serana becoming the MC's actual willing sex slave. But I expect what we *will* get is something that I'll still enjoy it a fair bit. Also, she's #3 for the biggest boobas which doesn't hurt either.

- Lady Hammerdick and Queen Nevernuff. No, not Simmone, this Lady Hammerdick:

Code:
            kevin "Yeah, there was a dude... Vil. Yeah, King Vil they called him. Evil looking!"
            show pov bdoubt mside hbneu1
            show kevin eneu
            kevin "Plus, the Hammerdick guy."
            pov "Who?"
            show pov mneu eneu hbthink
            kevin "Lord Hammerdick. Must be a pal of the King. He's the new guy in charge."
            show pov ewide mhappy bup hfneu2 hbneu2
            show kevin ehappy sblush
            kevin "And he has the juiciest wife I've ever seen!"
(Far as I can tell, this is the only mention of Simmone's mom in the whole game thus far. She might not even be a proper waifu candidate, but Kevin mentioning how attractive she is means I'd be very surprised if she didn't become one later.)

We haven't met either of these women yet, but what we do know about them hits too many of my fetish buttons to ignore. For one thing, they're older women, which I'll always prefer over younger women, ceteris paribus. (Forgive me, I love the MILF.) For another, they're nobility, and they're wives to the major antagonists (well, Queen Nevernuff isn't married to King Vil quite yet IIRC, he's just making the moves on her and she's not rejecting them, but it's close enough to count), which promises a superior version of Gretta's netori appeal. Furthermore, I'm a horrible degenerate and something just really, really appeals to me in a harem collecting game about collecting both a waifu *and* her hotter mom. Ideally there'd be mother/daughter group sex scenes but unfortunately that's unlikely to happen in this game. (I like sisters too so I expect I'll like the twins but given a choice between a pair of sisters and a mother and daughter, I'll take the latter each time.)

Finally, and probably most importantly, we don't really know anything else about them besides these superficial details: That means my imagination can fill in all the blanks with the things that would appeal to me most. We'll always prefer what we imagine could be inside a closed mystery box, to what we know is present and in front of us. I'm sure that when we actually meet these characters, they won't be as good as my imagination. But in the meantime, I really want to meet them in a way that I don't really care about other characters we've heard about and haven't met yet, like Junior's sister Joy or Maple's "bunny friend" or the she-wolf who lives in the Lurkden.

How do you even try justifying a 10 month wait for a small update of a 2d game, running on an already finished engine, with no gameplay? Is the art folded 4 thousand times so each pixel can cut through your monitor???
"no gameplay" dude it's a porn VN, some of us don't want random grinding filler or minigames we might not be able to beat which could block us from content and force us to go download a savefile. Some of us just want a story and some boobies. Not everything is for you, get over yourself. :rolleyes:

Games like WAL are rare af. Almost everything these days is 3d art, which I don't personally enjoy; most of them have pointless grinding gating access to sex content; and most of them are heavily into degradation and misogyny. WAL is one of the few that have gorgeous 2d art and manages to be hot without treating its women characters like trash. If you like that sort of thing go for it and have fun. But please stop coming in here and shitting all over a project that's producing something that's really quite rare. If people like you make Magicnuts give up and leave this game unfinished, I stg... :mad:

lol now i made it into page 416 from 412 and i see that semi troll only here to increase heat its good im ignore him game is great and so far outcome of update was good idk about 0.6 yet
and its very normal for some to go angery when its take this long but they need to calm down since this is not few reworked old scene after ages like famos milker from SS this is whole new update and hopefully longer than myrtle but sad part is she is not in my fav char list hehe
i prefer holly and hopefully she get update 0.8
Myrtle was honestly not my fave at first but her update really brought so much more characterization that now she's in my top 3 of this game. Lana, of course, was already in my top 3 so her update just solidified her dominance... So give Magicnuts time I say... maybe Rose and Gomira will impress you by being more than you expect. :)

Design, art, coding, bugtest. Yes it does. You don't have prood it doesn't anyway, so you're just as copium-induced as any1 else saying otherwise
You'll get proof when the update actually comes out next week and its 15-20 mins in length with like 2 scenes lol. Not that you or any of the other zealots would care though, you'll always find a way to wipe the devs' ass for them. Sure, I might be wrong, I'm hoping I'm wrong, but sadly I don't think I am.

So 0.5 had 2 scenes and took 10 mins to go through, while not skipping anything ? Are you drunk or just way too far up your own ass to even know wtf you're talking about ? Actually making sense should be a bare minimum when you wanna try and carry a point accross in a debate

"Without any real effort on my part, even. I just trip over my own dick over and over and keep landing in haremtown. It's like I'm in some sort of porn story where everyone with a vagina exists to become my waifu or something!"
LMFAO this describes Lassie perfectly... but honestly his naivete is his greatest charm. The "lovable himbo who gets all the girls because he's just a sweet dummy with a huge dick" is honestly one of my favorite VN tropes, hackneyed as it is. :LOL:

That said, I am really hoping that the conclusion of Lana's story arc is that she kicks the bottle and enters recovery. And I have faith that it will be. <3
