Deserts, sure.
But that rules out most, if not all of the European landlocked countries.
Rivers, too, carried in the water, but surely not too far away from places where sand exists anyway.
Just thinking how that phrase would have been received, by people who did not have the association, or may not even be familiar with sand? Austria, or maybe Switzerland, as they're famous for clocks.
Miles off topic, please ignore my meandering ramblings. I just found it interesting.(y)
You know that they don't always use sand for those things, right?
Powdered marble for example. Blends of tin and lead oxides are another.

It just needs to be granular.

And yes, river sand can be used. Sand is just basically ground up rock and any country with a river system would have sand.

I did not know that they used other materials, thank you!
It makes perfect sense and seems rather obvious, now you've said it & I'm no longer ensconced with thoughts of just sand.
But I'm referring to places receiving the phrase "sands of time", if they are not familiar with sand, rather than them using different materials for sand timers, per se.

So, if they used powdered marble and called it "powmarb", or something, other than "sand", would "sands of time" mean anything to them?
I can see "sand" used as just a generic term, for any powdered rock, but presumably not for tin & lead oxide.
If those people always measured time using metals, "sands of time" would seem rather odd, as opposed to "metals of time", or something similar.

Sandglass, sand clock, and sand timer are all valid names for hourglass in English. Just do image searches in your search engine of choice for them to see. Egg timer is more historical, and has mostly been taken over by modern timers (especially the ones actually egg-shaped), but there's still a few hourglasses mixed in the image results.

Yeah, when I was a kid, we had an egg-timer that was a small, thin "hour"glass, which only took 3 minutes for the sand to swap ends.
Better ones had dual measurments, for hard-boiled & soft-boiled eggs, but we weren't posh. lol

Yeah, also without arguments and slander. (y)
Sorry, it's probably mostly me been OT'ing.
And it's only a few days since release, imagine the rest.

lol I get your point and agree.
But, just to be sure, how many families (plural) is the MC building? ;)
If the game had incest I imagine a shitton but without it I imagine every town you visit will have 3 at least

lol Well, current amount of girls with pregnancy option - amount of girls, is pretty high!
Are there only 2 without, as it stands?
That's already more different families than most people have in a few lifetimes! :ROFLMAO:

This game is absolutely fantastic and this update has been no exception, but God damnit I wanna see some buttholes. That's my only complaint. Not enough buttholes. And I'm not talking about anal scenes, just the visible presence of a woman's asshole.
It's a complaint I have for a lot of games. It's like game devs avoid it for some reason. Maybe because it's just easier to animate sex from the side? Or maybe it's hard to draw buttholes or something? Maybe they consider them too extreme somehow? I dunno, but it's weirdly important to me. Love this game though.

Honestly, I've intrigued myself with my own question, attempting to get back on topic! :ROFLMAO:
Anyway, back towards on-topic, Rose next!
What does everyone reckon the deal is with her? She's clearly very worried that having sex with us will lead to our death.
So presumably she's a succubus, of sorts?
Or maybe a vampire? She disappears all day long...
Not enough buttholes.

Sorry, couldn't resist! :LOL::ROFLMAO:

Thanks, I might look into it. I'm trans myself, attracted to women. I don't mind feeling included, but I just don't like seeing futa content put in every other game just to satisfy a kink. I like futa content when it's done right and when it feels like it fits in the setting.
I will often keep an eye out for those developers who treat trans characters as they would any other. Yes, a trans character will often have challenges the cis characters are not subject to, but I look for those developers who use their trans characters to give diversity, rather than a "Take a Walk on the Wild Side" kind of thing.

Anyone else interested in why Rose fucking us would kill us?
Her update next. Who's got a theory?
Reckon she's a vamp? A succubus? Something more dangerous?
Well, here's what we know:

1. She's dangerous during the day but safe at night.
2. She doesn't want the MC to come around her wagon during the day because of said danger. (Though nothing actually happens if you go there anyway.)
3. She describes it as a "curse", implying it's not something inherent to her but something that was done to her later.
4. Anyone who has sex with her dies some sort of horrible death.

Now I'm not an expert on folklore creatures but that doesn't sound like anything I'm familiar with. Then again, there's all sorts of obscure slavic or hungarian or even native american creatures the developer could be using as a source instead that I've never heard of. Then again again, I could be massively overthinking it and it'll just be an original monster/variant or fusion of a familiar thing like a succubus daywalker or something. It's probably not worth our time to guess except that there's not much else to talk about until we get some news about how the next update is coming along.

I played this game for the first time today, and wow was I blown away. Really great work from the devs, excited to see this game's progress.
