RTP: https://mega.nz/#!rxUwnYQK!zAoZvLO8AkgnntJJeSXQN9e_IFVorthuPrZuqxx6ZCc

0.27.0 - Final iteration of Yhilin before the war. - Two new plot sex scenes. - Four new Synergy Skills available if you have enough affection. - There are new (retroactive) consequences to researching Dari's condition. Continue a save from the waiting screen to receive your proper benefits. - New Uyae conversations around Ari-Yhilina. - During previous Yhilin iterations, you can now summon more people to the throne room. No balance changes. - New Eustrin mausoleum graphics thanks to Lamsey. - Lucy now has more unclothed images during her naked scenes thanks to Bug Reporting. - Bug Reporting is also responsible for the adorable succubus children. Expect to see more of them over time. ^-^ - Various enemy stat changes (mostly for consistency and to remove unintended exploits). - Back in Stineford, there's now a visual effect when the door is destroyed. - If you invested in the demon-ridden mineshaft, it now appears properly in your investment ledger. - The shop in the outskirts can now reopen depending on investments. This is a retroactive change, but doesn't affect balance much. - Several quest log items had been neglected, most notably Conquerer. These have been fixed, though your quest log may need refreshing.As you can see, this update is getting a lot of things properly in order so that I can focus fully on the war event. Aside from the retroactive changes, though, it includes one last visit to Yhilin that should be fun. A lot of quests/variables/investments that have been ongoing for a while finally wrap up this time.

The first major war calculation occurs this time, the army conversation with Orcent. Those of you who like details, please do check it out. Though I have lots of notes and try to cover everything, well, you can see how many pieces are involved. Do let me know if there are any unintended consequences or things I neglected, it can be changed before the public release if necessary.

As I've unfortunately had to say for a while now, lots of things are still impending. I hope I'll start being able to make announcements about them over the coming month, but all I can do is keep working behind the scenes and putting out content.

Anyway, please enjoy the release! I apologize if I am not as present as I usually am over the next few days, but give feedback like usual and report bugs. If any quick fixes are necessary, I will try to get them out in reasonable time.

I may comes across as dense here (indeed, this may be because I am...) but "Waiting screen" ?

Argenten

Yaaaay! Thanks for all the amazing work.

Lord Forte Games

I'm not sure if this is intended, but certain quest objectives are still showing as "spoiler" even when complete: www.cyberforte.net/Images/SpoilersQuestLog.png [If this isn't intended, then from my own experience with the modern algebra questlog, it's because quests don't update if you change them after a save file has already started that quest, though, so it may not be an issue for someone not continuing from an existing save. Or is that what you meant by refreshing it?] Anyway, thanks for the update! Just getting started on playing and wanted to mention that while I was thinking of it.

Andrew Westwood

I have to admit, my eyes bulged a little when Orcent said the army size was 196 and the quality was 25. I want to believe that it comes out to a nice round number like 200, but I have no idea. He seems pretty happy about the composition though, so I'm ready to take the field against the Incubus Emperor and give him what-for.

Censuur

It was nice to finally have a talk with Lucy about Orcent and see all the effects of our work around Yhilin, aptly manages to demonstrate the stakes and raise tension as well. Only minor quirk I was able to find is that Robin will remind you that you haven't selected a research for her, when there's actually none available to me anymore. Another thing is that with all the commentary from the party and how so much new dialogue is available in old locations this update, I couldn't help but think it'd be nice if Min made some comment on the slime merchant in the Square, or even just a small reaction.

Darthjake

Just noticed something while doing another play through, in the Elven section the herbalist that wants to leave for Yhilin showed up on Orilise and Lynine's doorstep, so I had that conversation twice. Looking forward to the new release, but I just realized after getting to improving my orcs that I managed to miss Stark, so I will get to do another play-through in my future. Ah Well, it's getting easier to beat the concrete demon and the last demons for the "cult" in Yhilin.

Ripe

That Succubus kid is adorable... and it also serve as a nice reminder of just how much we managed to change things in Yhilin. One more thing? Did something changed in Trin duplicates calculation? Before Eustrin, I had 6 copies (Aramite Clerk, Janine's Uncle, Eastern Site Merchant, Young Noble, Orgasmic Empire Noble and Yuanon) and 4 copies remaining. Now I have same 6 copies listed but only 3 copies remaining... does copying Aramite rapists count as 1 unlisted copy?

Lord Forte Games

So, having finished the update overall, I enjoyed it, it felt appropriate for setup and the last version of Yhilin before the war. One question, though, aside from Qum's synergy skill with Robin, were there supposed to be any results from doing her research, or are those yet to come?

Captain Hair

Gotta say, all these character moments are fun. I really like that since Robin's joined in on the fun she's just started going full tilt with speaking her mind. Mocking that Aram rep in Eustrin, telling off the guy at the Magic Academy, hell, even her discussions with the mages during the trade summit. Keep hitting us with her sarcastic side! Other than that.... Wynn's skull is waaaaaaay thicker than I thought it'd be. At this rate it's gonna take the whole harem smacking her upside the head before she tries a simple apology. For someone so smart she really is blind to the whole "Simon's not gonna be just manipulated into forgiving you" situation.

IndefatigablyBeatific

Enjoyable as always, thought I wanted to comment on Mestan getting ditched in Eustrin, since he seemed pretty keen on being around the party. Of course, having him around in Yhilin would have probably been a liability. On a somewhat related note, I'm curious what he'd make of Ginasta as a person, since his sense for potential seems more like a sense for fate. Perhaps he isn't deterministic per se, but some of his dialogue certainly stood in contrast to Simon.

onepot

Sierra, is Orilise somehow capped at 99 RP right now? Because I should have gotten her over 100 in Eustrin, but she's just at 99. Lynine got the max 22 RP gain in Eustrin, so I can be sure that either at least the +7 from Neranda work for Lynine but not for Orilise, or that Orilise just is 'forbidden' to reach 100 right now.

wearMoniker

In terms of Discretionary Funding, I ultimately ended up not doing the nationwide regulation of Mercs and the Ardoheim border, just due to lack of funds. (I also didn't do the Noble Tithes because it seemed counterproductive.) Infrastructure seemed like a good trade-off for both, since it allowed for faster internal movement of troops. The Lucy conversation was good stuff, straddling forward progress and "It's complicated". I did like how Lucy threw in a comment about Steinford's fate, given she wasn't keen for them. I'm guessing the trade-off for a lack of Unpeople, while good for us, is going to lead to the city being hit in the coming war, and probably the nearby magical academy too. Orcent mis-conjugating his own name was a nice touch. It spoke to how little he actually knew about the world, and his own limitations in terms of mentality and education. His idle proposal for a NuOrcs homeland was interesting. I'd figured that the deed to Vinario was for Simon, as a way to give himself some useful prestige once Yhilini was wrapped up, but now I'm wondering if Dargai will be gifting it to Orcent. EDIT: Prematurely posted.

Fulminato

the research 'panel' are got messy (again). I found the 'final exam research' crystal open, but alredy done the resarch and pass the exam themself in the yhilini 3.5 iteration. [research order: post reunion -> "essence shielding' | post BoY -> 'Yhilini magic' | post elven forest -> 'orcs development' | post zirantia -> 'Order Exam' | Yhilini 3.5 -> 'Qum Project']

HarmlessArachnid

Minor bug: during the magic ball conversation in the beginning, Neranda repeats her "We'll have to see" line twice. (And I am surprised that for once I manage to report a typo before anyone else.)

Argenten

Doing a redo playthrough from before Zirantia onward and found a bug: When you talk to Wynn and get the "Based on what I've gotten from Qum and Robin..." conversation that's supposed to lower Simon's anger by 5...talking to Wynn just starts that same conversation over and over again with no way to check her affection/Simon's anger after that. dunno if it's lowering his anger each time but it'll be a serious bug to future interactions if it keeps up

Lamsey

As usual, it's the little details that stand out for me in this update. The scene with the succubus and her daughter is particularly heartwarming, as is the interaction between Carina and Qum. All four of the new synergy skills seem to work OK for me. Disrupt looks like a fun addition in particular. Mass Kiss is good, too, but I think it's too cheap at 10SP. It has similar damage output to Haze Of Sex, and similar healing power to Arousing Aura, but both of those have much higher cost at 25SP. 10SP skills are usually single-target and single-effect. I'm partial to having Qum cycle between Masturbate and Arousing Aura, so it's like she's at the back of the party constantly radiating energy (and the +5SP from Arousing Aura means Yarra can do the same at the front with Haze Of Sex, which is a fun tactic in many of the Rodak battles). If Mass Kiss was set to cost 20SP (or 25SP with a +5SP effect), Qum could use the same tactic and it'd be like she's joining with Yarra on the front line rather than hanging at the back.

Okay, I did not see this comment anywhere but when you are dealing with the starving succubi in Aram (26.2), if you hit the wandering group that is in front of the tent with the Yhilin succubi commander and orc/human guards you cannot interact with the commander because the starving succubi stand there and go "...what is going on?" Easy enough to avoid if you know it is going to happen, but it could be a pain if you don't have a close save. (which I did, thank Ivala!)

Darthjake

So I have 2 games going at the moment, one where I've focused on Yhilin, the other where I'm stalling Diplomatically. I am seriously considering, duplicating my save games and stalling with the army too, anyone have any thoughts on what might happen? All I see if I stall with the Army is Aram ignoring the warning signs of the Icubus Arsehat and invading Yhilin anyway.

SJ99998

Just noticed that the person mourning at the graves in the outskirts has a new line that is set to display when variable 0001 is above 30, instead of another variable like Acceptance, which I think was your intention.

Bladestorm

I noticed that the girl wizard and the succubus in the rose district don't have new conversations even when the war looms on the horizon and I was wondering if they would say something different when we invested in that sex shop.

DukeLeto7

Question. Does the demon haunted mine shaft get added to the ledger if the Doom King sends orcs to seize it? Because this isn't occurring for me. If we mean instead that this addition is for ProN hackers who buy into the mine shaft in chapter 1... well that would be odd. Flavor suggestion: It might be best to clear the Flower Speculation item from the Ledger at the reunion with a note from Megail that this was a putzy investment. (Or whatever the Yhilini equivalent of "putz" is.) Related, see these suggestions on mercenary Ledger upkeep. <a href="http://thelastsovereign.wikia.com/wiki/Army#comm-6653" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://thelastsovereign.wikia.com/wiki/Army#comm-6653</a>
