Definitely wish this had a harem tag for sure. But I'll make do with the step-sister for now

I am still a Patreon of this game, because I once really liked it. The renders are great, the story is great. But there are buts now. The different paths became too much. I don´t know how Nyx is able to keep the overview. And it takes always so much time to the next part of the game, that you forget everything that has happened before if you use your last save to proceed. At some point I really started to wish it would be just a harem game like many others. Too many decisions really matter. Without a walkthrough it is not playable anymore. And even with this I am not sure in which direction I should go. Even playing different paths you always end with the feeling, you missed something.
That brings me back to the point why I started to enjoy games with a straight development much more today. Maybe with decisions that skips some scenes or kinks, but without early decisions having influence on scenes like twelve release after. Don´t get me wrong, it is still a great game, but since a while no longer one of my favorites. Really just because it is too messed up. Some may like it just because of it.

Couldn't disagree more. Tired of games that only give token changes in regard to your choices. I'm impressed how Nyx is able to weave the story the way she does with all of these choices. It's a unique game compared to others that are all the same with only slightly meaningful choices and little impact on the story. Barely above kinetic. And the choices are clear. Don't fuck around or the others WILL find out. Or maybe I have a play through or two just to see the carnage, haha.

We don´t disagree in most points. I played it through four times yesterday (in speed mode) with completely different routes and current endings. The latest update was incredible short or long depending on the route. And I am more than sure, I missed a lot of content still. Even if you youth the walkthrough pdf, you loose track at some point about the route you want to follow. As I said it is impressive that Nyx is able to keep the overview about all this routes. My point is, I would like to have the option to follow a clear path. Independently of the decisions you make, you miss about 70% of the game. You never even know, if you have seen everything.
I tried to get all of the scenes with Alexa yesterday, there are a lot. Maybe it is the hardest path to take, because there are really a lot decision that ends it. But I was not able to find any path for hr sister. Yes, she falls in love, kisses you, but is that all? In fact you have to ruin the path with Alexa for Layla if you want her. So is there no Lewd scene with her or am I unable to find it? A question you have soon or later for every character.
And you need save points for every path for the next update. And when it comes out, you totally forgot what it was about. Because even following the same path must not be the same regarding the other characters. And that is what I stopped to enjoy. It is very nice as long the game is not as big as it is right now or have at least some clear paths to follow.
I would love to have a choice when the game starts. A list where I can pick my main love interest and everything that is necessary to reach it will marked green and everything that stops it will marked red. Maybe with one option free play. How the game is right now, it ends frustrating with every update trying to get most of it and rushing though it for hours using the Ren´Py speed function.
So in short words, it became to huge and too chaotic. And at this points I start to prefer a linear kinetic novel over it.
And yes, I must agree to others too, having a harem path would be nice as well. Not to have a harem for real but to have a path that offers everything of Nyx incredible nice work in one run through the game. And maybe not longer have to think, oh my god, why did Nyx needed nine month to publish an update with just four pictures before the end. That was what happened to me using my first and main save after last chapter.

Fair enough. And I see where you are coming from, but I don't mind the things you're saying are bad. I have several saves for the paths that interest me. And for me, the gallery is a great indicator there is more to open up and explore if it's a character that interests me.

The hugeness of the variations is what I find enjoyable about the game. It makes the choices so much more interesting to me. It's just a different mindset then where you are coming from and neither is right or wrong.

As for a harem option, it would undermine so much of the character personalities that it wouldn't make sense. Even with a mod that cobbles it all together, it would be so disorienting and that in my opinion would make it easier to get lost and just make the choices meaningless again.

As for the lengthy update times, that's just becoming a fact of life for many games. At least with Nyx, we're getting huge updates at the end of that time instead of some half-assed update because the Dev took a 6 month vacation and then worked for a few hours a day to create something that barely moves things forward.

And yes, there is content for Layla and you don't have to pursue Alexa for it. It's pretty easy to find even without a walk through.

Anyway, as I said, nothing you said in incorrect. I just don't mind the things you find irritating. In my opinion, there are too many games that do the "lazy" (and I use the term loosely because many Devs work hard on other aspects of their games) story telling where you're railroading into one "good" and "intended" path and the rest is just "See this scene or not". I get bored with those games much like you're overwhelmed with this one.

One of my fav game. Thank you for posting this here.

Hope this keeps getting updates it's just getting good.

Yep, this precisely is why I shelved it. Not really a fan of large numbers of LIs with no harem. Too many times that turns into a game that takes way too long to progress the story because they have to make too many paths. There aren't too many developer groups that have the staffing and throughput to maintain the proper release cadence to keep the updates from being way too far apart.

 

[Trickster]

The last update really seemed like they were trying to keep Zach redeemable by making him believe that the MC is bullying Ethan. Zach is an absolute idiot for falling for that lie, but I get what Nyx was aiming for

 

[Republican Bear]

Slow updates and being forced to choose only one girl or face the consequences has never appealed to me.

So yeah I prefer harem games but the game itself isn't bad.

 

[MrTrue]

While I do think this is a very good game the amount of girls and paths present make it very messy to keep track of.
I know some of the hardcore fans of this title use up almost all their Ren'py save slots playing it so beware if you don't like to read a walkthrough or use a WT mod.
It is also one of the very few games where there is not just one split in a path at some point but multiple ones as you go along for a single girl.

 

[Aj2jnnc234]

interesting plot and beautiful girls

 

[jeff1005]

Not sure if it's just me - or doesn't make any difference anyway - but when I dl the game v0.13.2, the unzipped file is v0.13.0. Has anyone else come across any issues like this? Is it even important??

 

[zyxion0]

will be my first game i try with tattooed girls in it

 

[ramy668]

Girls are very hot, I already love Alexis.
