Harem c8m1 released to patrons, c8m0 to public!


Harem c8m1 is ready for release!  Definitely smaller than I was hoping but there was enough ready to ship to pack it up for you all!  I had said before that 8m1 was going to be more focused on scenes, and that is definitely what it was.  Samantha’s confidence was dinged by Cecilia’s trickery, but not that Cecilia has been taken care of its time to start building her back up.  And since it’s Harem, that’s done in bed.  Adeline’s sworn her loyalty to you, time to learn a bit more about her as well.  In bed, of course.  And after Kathleen’s lesson, Donnie or Tomas is ready to try his new ‘skills’ with Jessica.  Although they don’t end up making to the bed until quite a bit later.  Both Samantha’s and Jessica’s scene take place in Lesser Corsix’s inn after the Tower quest.

I was able to sneak a bit of plot into 8m1!  Bring Chinua to Mercalius after you get access to Celee to add her to your harem officially.

c8m1 - Small release due to holidays and injury
-As you travel through Celee again, your women still desire a night with you.  After the Tower, it's Samantha's night.  Be nice and treat her to a night in an inn instead of a bedroll.
-You have leashed the dangerous assassin, Adeline.  Time to get to know her a bit better, in all senses of the word.
-You and Tomas both remember the emotional conversation between Donnie and Jessica in Lesser Corsix's inn many months ago... Lets see how round 2 goes after Kathleen's turn with them.
-Another mage is part of your harem now, but your ally advises that simply bringing her to the assessor may be an issue.  Talk to Mercalius about her instead!
-3 new scenes added
-52 images added, 54 new pages of text.
-Redid Fiona's shop.  Less fancy, less of a code-nightmare

Bug fixes/QoL
-Angelica added back into party if she didn't rejoin after Adeline

And to the public, 8m0!  Chapter 7 is officially in the past! You rule Elan by proxy without anyone being the wiser and Ehri is scouring the province for women to aide your people. It’s time to set your sites on other women. Adeline tried to kill you in Meti, now it’s time to add her to your harem! Although you would have done that even if she wasn’t ordered to kill you… if she just caught your eye… but that’s not the important thing. She is skilled and beautiful so she will be yours. Speaking of beautiful women, there’s some that you missed on your first trip through Celee. Events are happening that will force Mercalius to owe you significant favors… the least of which is re-entry into Celee! You’ll learn far more about his beautiful wife Livia, see more of Legate Marianna than you ever have before, and get to spend some ‘quality’ time with your own Centura as you investigate a series of brutal murders in Corsix. After you have saved more than just his city, it’s time to revisit some old friends in Lesser Corsix and find out what’s happened to your allies why you were gone and maybe why even the Ratan provinces seemed full of monsters trying to kill you. Oh, Leona and Chinua go topless!

Content additions
-A crisis in Corsix may be just the opportunity you need to convince Mercalius that you're trustworthy enough to be allowed back into Celee. And you get to see more of his beautiful wife.
-It's clear that Adeline is just a weapon in Lord Makath's hands. A woman like that should be a sword in your hand, and a sheathe in your bed.
-All you know is that Legate Marianna is powerful and beautiful. You're about to find out that she is both beautiful and powerful.
-Back in Celee, things have been happening while you were gone. And they'll need your help to sort them out again.
-Chinua may have sworn to you in her people's way, but the Ratans won't respect that. You'll need to find a way to make her yours officially as well (portal stone)
-Minor changes to Benjamin in the gateway inn, updating his dialogue as the plot progresses.
-3 new scenes
-~225 pages of new text, ~190 new images
Bug fixes
-Reset Rhea, Naitay, and Donnie's skill to get them in the right spots.
-Fixed a bug with Caliga where you couldn't enter his office.
-Many text/continuity issues

  1. Agh. This so figures. First, it was too large for window mode. Now, it's too tiny, to the point it hurts the eyes. Just can't win with this.-_-'

  2. Ah. Thanks.

    Hmm... seems both Edrin's conversion in the good one and Isabella's conversation in the evil path both aren't available. That's odd, since I keep reading in the updates that Corsix is available. Unusual for side quests like that to be unavailable when something that seems like main story continuing on is.

    Still liking what content is here though. I just find it very odd that the good natured Isabella scene is available and its evil natured corresponding scene isn't available.

  3. So, why are there added saved games with the public version? Is there anything good hidden there? Or is that just an oversight?

    1. One of my testers through it together and I didn't see any reason not to include them.

  4. For the last couple of versions, there's two scenes that are consistently marked as 'Coming Soon' that haven't been updated, and I fear I might lose doing those scenes if I go to Corsix. Is this true or not?

    Said scenes: in the evil save file, speaking to Isabella at the moat. And in the good save file, converting Edrin with those Bracers that were used to turn Laurent into Laura. I very much don't want to miss those scenes, or is there a way to trigger them now?

  5. How exactly do you unlock Angelica's herb bag? It doesn't seem as simple as talking to her when she joins you.

    1. I don't recall off the top of my head. I know it involves the quest for her special weapon though. Which is an option you can get by talking to her at the Castra Corson, or however that's spelled.

    2. It should be explained in the mechanical guide.

    3. To make things clear, I am referring to be the regular herb bag and not the upgraded version earned through Angelica's unique quest.

  6. Actually, pretty sure Angelica tells you she forgot something home when you talk to her in Castra Corson. I think you have to get her to open the "secret entrance" first. But the quest itself has nothing to do with the Herb Bag. The quest just gives you access to a field with potion ingredients.

    1. That is what I can't figure out. I talk to her to open the secret passage and then get her two scenes. After that, I just get generic dialogue until she mentions her herb bag.

    2. Ah I get you. Yeah, she doesn't seem to have an obvious trigger to her item "quest". She just randomly tells you. I am sure there's a trigger in the script itself but yeah it seems pretty much a "it happens when it happens" situation. I had a similar experience with Terra's Castra events because it seemed like some of her events began happening out of order (which may have been because I did a lot of sidequests before I even went to Lesser Corsix).

  7. Just realized something that should be fixed. Fiona is in Corsix... but you are never once given the option to collect profits from her, despite how many customers are in her shop.

  8. HELP!

    On the evil save file, talked with Noemi in Corsix about giving a reward, then talked to Angelica and Donna. Now, Noemi is no where to be found to talk to in regards to the promised reward. Where is she?

  9. Been overall loving this. There's only one thing that I have any notable complaints about: that Donnie and Thomas's 3D model is the same and matches neither of the two at all. With how well you did with Ralph, I didn't expect that result with them.

    ....still loving the game overall though.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Another complaint. The artifact for enslaving Cecilia is the same in good and evil. It should be a different artifact... though having it in the same location is another matter entirely and entirely possible.^_^

    ReplyDelete
  11. For a while now, Noemi keeps having 'Adeline' as an option. But, I haven't even met any Adeline yet, so it shouldn't even be unlocked at this point.:\

    ReplyDelete
  12. Darn. This is really disappointing. You continue onto Elan and continue the chapters... without even first finishing the side quests in Denai/Corsix. There's still talking to Isabella at the moat in the evil side, and both don't have transforming Edrin.:\

    ReplyDelete
  13. Seems the images for the quest to hunt down the Death Worms is incorrect. Got some dual headed snake thing instead of what Ralph described, some sort of insect worm with a leech like mouth.

  14. Just saw Nona. A shame that she's considered 'too old'. Maybe another artifact like those bracers can change that. She seemed interesting.
