So the performance issues are less bad now, but the have sex with werewolves quest is still impossible to do and getting pregnant somehow gives me infinite births with progressively bigger bellies every time, unless it somehow tracks every single time I fucked a monster?

While I do understand your points, you have to keep in mind that this ain't a VN but an intent at a full game, developed on UE5.
It is heavy, don't get me wrong, but this has to be expected given the engine, assets, etc.
That's all well and good and I understand what you are saying completely. I'm just saying by doing this in the fashion/manner, the dev automatically knocks a lot of potential players out of the game. Sad, but true, simple fact. I only wished I could have played it. It looks like fun even though a lot of players are complaining about its mechanics.

The idea of this game is really fascinating, but apparently the implementation is anything but child's play.
I would like to jump forward 2-3 years to see what happens to the game^^




Right now, reading this thread is a reason to get depressed xD

That's the biggest problem with the adult game industry as a whole. It's not accepted and mainstream enough to really have any major studios and publishers working in it. Other than IllusionSoft I can't think of a single decent sized studio making these larger scoped adult games. It's always incredibly small teams or even individuals taking on all of the work and they primarily rely on their own money or donations to fund the projects while they're probably still working a normal day job in real life. So you get tons of promising ideas that get stuck in development hell and almost never get out of a buggy poorly optimized alpha state in the long run. :(

The exceptions to this are the more simple visual novels, 2D side-scrollers or all of the games using RPGMaker as a base.
It sums it all up - hypocrisy in action and on all fronts. Event "AAA" studios and publishers producing unplayable junk or cannibalizing the old games/ideas using "remastering".

Even with the latest patch 0.8.4.2, "the endless births" issue remains (at least for me). I also noticed that it started after I restored the game from the save file.

. There is rumor with significant correlation in evidence that suggests the recently made company named IllGames is run by at least some of the employees from Illusion.

Your complaint is valid, but it is sadly the general trend of gaming.

But don't be too sad about not being able to try it. At the time, it's an hot mess, enormously bugged and in the end not really interesting.
I keep backing the dev because I do think the idea and concept is good (and to leak it because YARRRRRR), but the dev still need to put a lot of work into it, and do something regarding bug squashing.

That's a mystery. People suspect the company was trying to dodge some legal trouble. Because the company formerly known as Illusion announced its closure and promptly closed, Illusion is legally dead. However IllGames release of HoneyCome is essentially Honey Select in Koikatsu style, so in a sense Illusion is not completely dead. Although legally they are and that little shell studio might not do much before it goes "poof" as well.

Although since this is a thread for Wicked Island I'd just like to say I played it for one evening, experienced everlasting night darkness, got a quest from a witch to mate with werewolves and didn't see the quest progress at all. Character design before the game starts is weirdly buggy with the character constantly rotating once first rotated, and saved templates don't save every slider change which is an annoying chore to fix. I was effectively immoral at around level 5 because once you invest almost all your points in max health and health regen evenly enemies can't reasonably kill you if you put up a decent fight.

I did get a tip from this thread that said if I wanted to mate with an enemy weaker than me I beat it into submission then masturbate in front of it and it... should do something. I suspect I tried that already and didn't see a result. I did see enemies walk towards my character without attacking sometimes though.

The witch's dialogue reveals your character speaks as your computer workstation's name, not the character name. Along with the journal flag to share quests it's clear this game was meant to have online multiplayer but this feature is clearly unfinished. Relevantly, it's totally possible to start the game with an unnamed character because giving your character a name is something you could miss, and I did in fact have to redo character gen again just to remember to name the finished character... only to have a questgiver's dialogue reveal my character's name never mattered anyway.

For a game that is supposed to be at version v0.8.4.2 (past 80% done), this games feels more like it is around 40% done. I normally only review games with active developers watching so they can improve their game's flaws but this review is more for the players, with the following summary:

In short, do not waste your time with this game. Character gen is the best part of it and it's somehow still buggy. The game at large is overall a heap of bugs.
