UPDATE: Quick link for 0.56.1, hopefully including everything reported so far. Ideally this would be the public update, but if you play around in it and notice anything, let me know!

TLS 0.56.1

 - Usual bugfixing/polishing.

 - Some new locations have been added for Elleani/Iris, but most are cosmetic, just to signal to players that that they don't need to keep looking someplace.

ORIGINAL POST

This one got out of hand, continually adding more things, but I think it should be in decent shape. I feel this is a really solid update, so I hope everyone enjoys it. ^-^

TLS 0.56.0

- New event resolving New Givini and gaining a new harem member.

- The Palace Staff quest can now be completed. One new staff member added.

- Iris has her harem quest if maxed (found in Helvanna).

- After talking to Riala, there are three new challenge bosses throughout the world.

- Purely flavor: Robin's former roommates have more events after the Third Arclentian War. Mherin can now be found in Stineford. It's possible for Infasis to die in the fighting, otherwise she's in the Academy.

- If Feroholm or the Stineford Farm were rebuilt, they now have new background music.

- New conversation between Esthera and Tertia potentially unlocked (variable dependent).

- Five new sex scenes.

- 14 new illustrated scenes: Esthera Cunnilingus, Fheliel Blindfolded, Nalili First Time, Nalili Titfuck, Nalili Double Team, Neranda Seated, Orcent x Kara, Restoring Sabitha, Sabitha's POV, Serving the Empress 1-3, Trin x Altina, Trin + Qum

- 1 new SFW scene, for a chapter interlude.

This is one of those updates where a fair amount of the content is locked behind variables/results, but in this case, much of it can be seen by everyone (just requiring some tradeoffs). The intended heart of the update is the set of events finishing off New Givini's subplot, but Iris also has her harem quest that will send you all over the world, and I included some other random things as well. There's also a lot of new art in this one, due to the timing.

Now that I've already compiled and it's too late, I'm suddenly paranoid that one of these wasn't fully implemented. =/ However, I hope that the majority is in solid shape and that everyone has fun with this last open world update before the big events start.

NOTE: The quest says that new bosses can be found in Tatseni, Yhilin, and the Orgasmic Empire. Instead of the OE, one is in Eustrin. When I update to 0.56.1, they'll be moved and the quest log will be corrected.In any case, I welcome feedback on these new challenge bosses. I wanted each of them to require, at minimum, a specialized and well-equipped party. Unlike almost other fights, these enemies don't choose attacks randomly: they follow a precisely chosen sequence of attacks to reduce RNG. However, I worry that these fights are too weak overall.

"This one got out of hand, continually adding more things" Now that is unironically a promising starting point for getting hyped. ;) On the subject of new illustrated scenes, I'll be honest: Back when the idea of scene art first came up, Simon's Path was the first place my mind drifted, as I told myself "there are just too many scenes in this game, for this too possible". And now, most of the scenes from that story section, that I remembered for being scene-heavy, have been taken care off in a single update. There is even art for a few other story sections. So suffice to say: Fears relieved.

I've been out of the loop for a while owing to less free time on my hands, but it's good to see a new TLS update. First note. Iris gives me a statement that she can complete her quest immediately after talking about it in Helvenna, BEFORE I talk to her in any clothing stores. This seems off. (I haven't cracked open the event code yet... so.)

Aside from a horrible case of vertigo going from a push to sprint game OEA to all sprint TLS, I really like this update so far! Points for Iris's side quest for being outside the box, I wasn't expecting SPOILER sewing SPOILER but I really like the idea as it gives her more depth then just loving management!

WaxerRed

Small bug in the Tower section, there is one spot where you can hope off the tiles. Picture of where below. https://imgur.com/a/7OWCUBZ In the same area in front of the couch where you take a rest, there is a tile that always pushes the player one space up even after finishing the event. Not a lock of progress luckily! Maybe bug? Ginasta's "Tyrant strike" does not have a skill description and none of the demons in that place seem to resist it. (Not that I complain!)

So I'm finally done with the main thrusts of the patch. The only things I haven't messed with are the challenge bosses and I couldn't trigger the Esthera/Tertia scene. Overall, I enjoyed it. Had some mild frustration with how scattered gathering influence for Elleani and clothing stores for Iris were, but that's mainly due to not being sure which leaders and stores would qualify. For Elleani I was checking banks and the Ardford Embassies, among other things, just to be sure, and Iris popped up in some places I didn't expect and didn't in places I would have. But that could just be my own biases making it more difficult. However, you made one major screw up in getting Elleani her position. Orri's Restaurant plays NO part. She should be an easy 25%. I expect this to be resolved in the .1. I also got ended up triggering the end of the Tower segment unintentionally before I was done exploring. An option to stay after the great debate would be nice. As for your warning about the next patch. Unless the Crystal of Ivala is actually a disguised nuke (which I doubt, but who knows) I really feel like Aram's gonna be the flashpoint. It's been on the sidelines of the story for most of the game and everything there just keeps getting worse. The 2 High Priestesses would be great cover for whomever is imprisoning Ivala, and the Crystal appearing on the other side of the continent continues to drag attention away. Not to mention the King of Aram's still a mystery. Who knows, maybe he's another King of Zirantia, but with a captive goddess instead of a faked one. Or this could all be wrong and my old theory about Hester being the Anak's true opponent is correct. That kind old lady routine is a trick I tell ya!

Hoooly crap. That moment in the Givini tower when they argue about how to use their power has to be one of the best I've seen in any game. They have reality altering power, the real ability to make things as they wish, so where do they draw the line? Simon's example and conclusion where, in my opinion, perfect. This once again proves to me why you are my favorite author and game dev. I gotta gush even more. The tower library itself was awesome to explore, every object had commentary attached and it was all weird and interesting. This has been a truly amazing update and I haven't even finished it yet.

I think I finished the majority of 0.56. Fun update! The center piece was of course the New Givini content. An interesting idea to have it based on percentage and having to gather allies to have it pushed through. It's a nice feeling to know that so many people have our backs! From Sarai, to Neranda, to even Grubak (thanks for helping for once bud.) But I was pleasantly surprised how many smaller places also added help, from Nabith, to the elven libary, to even the Givini merchant in the Ardford merchant house. I'm sure I missed a few due to not checking in with them or by missing variables, but that's okay! I had more then enough points to get it through. Only oddity I found was Luanell seemed oddly cold to me. In this save Simon told her to hold back from any marriage and the last time we saw her she seemed thankful for the advice. Seemed off now that she didn't give us the time of day. Book dungeon was a fun one, I liked a lot for the puzzle aspects of the foes. It also gave Altinia a time to shine as her abilities to use all elements, and poison and earth made her the MVP of taking those demons down. The talk in the book room was a fascinating one to listen through, all the characters gave their own viewpoints well and I didn't find myself taking a side, just observing. Part of me does think Xestris could be there to comment that logic like this is exactly why the Anak took years of planning before acting. They aren't busting up slaver dens any longer, when you aim to affect a world at such a great scale a single missed variable could spell disaster for hundreds of thousands if not he whole world. And of course Elleani addition to the group has been a long time coming! She has always been a great ally from the first fucklord attack, to the succession crisis, to the Synod. All I can say is that I'm very happy for her and am glad to have her nearby in the future. The optional bosses for Rialia seemed alright balance wise to me. Well...all of them killed me 1-4 times each, but the game gives you ample warning and opportunity to SAVE so anyone who does not is a FOOL! (Mino bug, unlike completing the Givini quest line Rialia has no update in dialogue back at base for when you beat the 3 enemies.) And of course the Iris quest! I said before that I liked it, and now that I finish it I say that I love it! The sewing subplot gave cause to explore a hidden side of Iris's character, but also the quest to visit all corner of the world used the worldbuilding you've already established well. It's nice that's there often something new with these maps and the cities are never one and done. The long dialogue between Iris and Simon in Eustrin was unexpected and tragic, but it just adds more to the character makes me glad Simon and Iris have found one another. The magic silk made me lean back and ponder for a moment where it might be, and after a minute and half of silent thinking I suddenly went "ohhhhHHHHHHHHH!!!!" and rushed off to get it. :) The 3 part reward was quite nice! Who doesn't like Pron (and helping steinford.) The large choice of armor was interesting and I'll be playing around with the combinations but for now I'm leaning towards giving it to Uyae. And of course the sex scene was great, I don't think you've done a lot of "clothing play" but it came off well by my books! And of course the best part of the update was the SFW maid appreciation day event! Glad to see our group take away from the Sex, fighting, and Drama that follows their lives and just do some cooking and cleaning. Will the next character quest be exploring Uyae's new love for dusting, getting broom from across the world? Will it be to help Vhala open up her own 5 star cooking restaurant? Time will only tell!

Wow, so much new stuff! Normally, I tend to hold off on playing new content until an update or two have been dropped (so I don't start to immediately start to suffer from withdrawal symptoms after only a day or two) but this time I think I might as well jump into it right away!

werewindle

This was a great update, so much new and enjoyable content, I greatly approve. Now. I eventually figured out the silk quest, but damn, it's a bit cryptic. Maaaybe mentioning "spiders" more prominently would help? As for Elleani's quest, it's written very well, no problems there. Just minor observations. It's possible to see Elleani's sex animations via the HQ globe/illusion room before she's actually in the harem. Also, a screwy point in the Givini Tower dungeon: https://i.imgur.com/zeAT9D3.png I'd also say that the last library spot to get checked in the Givini Tower is needlessly wallhumpy, in a wolf3d-secret finding way. That could seriously get a sparkly marker imo. Tiny typo: Esthera's dominance on demand scene calls her "Esther" on the last page. Now for the challenge fights, since that's absolutely my jam, heh. The Yhilin one is straightforward and mundane. Rock, paper, scissor with magical elements & pray your healer doesn't get one-shot in the first rounds. And Altina's Quake is the dragon claw that beats all the other positions. Inconsistency is baked in, oh well, get a save. Party lineup is pretty much enforced, took me a few adjustments, but then it just clicks. The Tatseni one is pretty brutal. I started with a full succubus lineup and got absolutely wrecked. Then I realized Vhala was the real MVP and Unperson Aura was the difference maker, so Riala got kicked off the squad. Early one-shots can still happen and they'll screw up the fight, but I'm used to games where it's up to RNGeezus. Just get Nalili into Aegis mode and it's fine. I found the Eustrin fight the most fascinating one. I mean, I actually undetook it first and made artificial hurdles for me - no consumables, no easy mode with Carina. And somehow I struck gold with Hilstara, Uyae, Vhala and Ginasta. 4 tanks goooooo. It was long and at the end I just had Hilstara baiting/defending purely, cause she was out of mana, but I completed it on the first attempt and there was never a hint of one-shotting. Then I started playing with the scenario and I realized how lucky I got, lol. I went for max damage squad of Hilstara/Carina/Aka/Varia... yeah lol, instant oneshots, goodbye horses. I was shocked to see the Carina/Varia duo getting disrespected so much no matter the combo... Eventually I found the "fastest" squad and slay queen Varia is still a part of it, but the MVP is Vhala again (with Hilstara tanking and Carina healing), because of Offensive/Defensive Rain and negating the attack boosts that otherwise go completely out of whack. I have to say I LOVE the depth of this fight! Otherwise, loved the ride.

Anyone got a bug where simon starts with no weapon?

Some feedback on my initial hours with the new update. - Iris sex scene has some of the only text blocks where the text doesn't fit the screen without scrolling. - The ledger entry from Iris has a ':' at the end of it. This is the only entry in my ledger that is like this. - I'm not sure if I missed some dialogue but I had no idea to look for Iris in the extradimensional HQ after visiting the 11 places. I had no problem finding all 11 places. I definitely checked some areas she wasn't but all of the places made complete sense. Contrast that with my feeling like a massive idiot for how long it took me to find the silk. Going back there and kicking ass was really rewarding though. The whole quest was to be honest. No idea what reward I'm going to pick but thinking on it has been fun too! - Optional bosses were pretty intense. I spent more time figuring out who I should bring and more so how I should equip them over actual fight time. The first two I did were pretty fun. The Tatseni one was less so. I'm still not entirely sure that I understand the Tatseni fight but I did win. The constant application of the AoE Sexbind (not the super Sexbind) with none of my items seeming to stop it was brutal. I basically needed to get an attempt in where Nalili didn't get hit by the first one to get her Aegis up and then her and Vhala 2v2ed them first try (that I got this to work). All in all, these were a welcome challenge that I enjoyed. - Kalant isn't part of Tyna's projections during the Warden of the South event. I thought he was part of earlier projections but I could be remembering incorrectly. - The New Givini stuff has been fun so far. I just started the tower section but running around and finding support for Elleani was enjoyable. Not sure how high you can pump the numbers before using your harem + Tyna's options but I got to 65% which felt reasonable. After I finish this I'm looking forward to moving the story forward and seeing what is next! Now it is time for my wife and I to continue her playthrough.

After Elleani's Request, Yarra announces that "interharem sexytimes are now unlocked", but I can't seem to find any new interactions. Where would these be?

Lamsey

I liked the debate in the Tower - heady stuff, even without Orcent involved. I hope we'll get more thoughtful conversations as a result of Elleani spending more time with us. The attention to detail on the Tower Library map was great, with all the flavour text helping to make it feel like a proper hunt rather than just activating the right buttons in the right places. It was also good to have the serious stuff balanced out by Iris's quest and the HQ staff holiday event. Seems like it'll require at least some tradeoffs to unlock Elleani. I got to about 50% without taking actions that would have detrimental effects, such as the options in Elleani's room or choosing to have Uneanun support Elleani at the cost of getting him off his breeding farm train of thought. Not sure how I'll end up squaring that circle, or if there will be the possibility to wait until later to open things up with investments; it's difficult to prioritise political shenanigans in New Givini over keeping people fed and safe in Rodak, so I'm still tapped out for ProN at this point. Just to add another voice since I've seen a number of people mentioning it - I thought of the Stineford spiders straight away when Iris mentioned the silk. It was nice to be able to curbstomp those bloody things.

FenyxSCPlayer

little bug report: (im playing the game from zero again). When you reach day 28 on orgasmic empire, the sex scene with esthera gives a missing file error then crashes to desktop where can i upload my autosave?

WaxerRed

The ritual point in the Orgasmic Empire drops the group off in Tatseni. Edit- Rialia still tells us to go to Taseni even though there is no ritual point there any longer its in Eustrin.

SantaTheHutt

Great timing with the .1 release, I just got my first dose of the vaccine and have time off from work in case of a bad reaction that I need to fill.

Zaq Reman

Out of curiosity, what did you decide about Tyrant Strike?

Desertopa

So, this may have been addressed before, but after defeating the bonus boss in the Orgasmic Empire, I ended up here. https://i.imgur.com/WOMl3fQ.png Locations in the Tower may connect to other physical locations, but my suddenly turning up here seems like a bit of a non sequitur which the characters don't address at all.

Well, after all these years, the spiders did me in again. https://imgur.com/9gUKzMX This error appeared after I defeated them and left the house.

Andrei Bucur

Lore theory: After playing the game several times I think:

Andrei Bucur

Ivala is imprisoned by The Anak; The Arlecent incubus emperor is a past Chosen or The Ardford Church is Cloning him into Chosen in some way; The horns the Incubus King/Emperor is wearing are the ones he had cut off Iris. That is my theory so far

Andrei Bucur

Another one is: High Priestess Hester is the Mastermind behind the Chosen

Andrei Bucur

...But then, The Chosen become corruped by the white Tower Walker. (Forgot his name)
