Title: Report inconsistencies, bugs, typos etc. here.
Post by: jwik01 on January 05, 2025, 04:17:03 pm

You really do like Dante and Renée. They can be a bit pretentious, but they're smart and witty. There's an aura of sexual license around them that you find very appealing. You met them just before you and Annie broke up, and they were very good friends while you were a wreck.

And you finally get to see Renée's new breasts in person. They are indeed spectacularly large. The evening is a grand success already, you conclude.

Renée makes sure to turn to display herself to you.

BUT THEN!

Quote
"Purely out of appreciation for their beauty."

"Please feel free to appreciate them as much as you want."

She smiles at you. "I would love to see you more often. I have very fond memories of a certain time with you."

You smile back, and then realize that you have no idea what she's referring to.

"Ah... what time was that?" you ask.

She looks at you, startled. "You honestly don't remember?"

"Have we had sex? Besides last night, that is?"

She laughs. "I'm glad I'm so memorable!" she says. "At your wedding? We fucked in the kitchen! Annie caught us with our pants down!"

You suddenly remember. Annie was not exactly wild about her groom banging another woman at her wedding, but she forgave you quickly. Lorelei was upset that it wasn't her.

"I'm so sorry..." you manage. She cuts you off. "Oh, don't worry about it. We were all pretty drunk, and it's understandable that you don't dwell on that wedding." She gives you a flirty smile. "But it was a lot of fun."

She leans in again. "I've been hoping for a repeat performance. But next time, let's use a bed. That metal table was cold."

Of course this is paired with the revelation that Renée is a hypnotherapist, so who knows what might be an implanted or screen memory...?

I think the whole point there is that you don't remember her.

So that was how you met, was that she fucked you on your wedding day?!

As absurd as it sounds, this is drawn from a real-life event in my past.

I just discovered that if your coffee-shop conversation with Renée goes just right, you learn she is a hypnotherapist, talk about the party on Saturday, hear her limits, and then find out she's a hypnotherapist again.

"I'm glad you and Lorelei stayed in touch."
"So, how's work?" You realize you have no idea what she does.
"Purely out of appreciation for their beauty."
"We're really looking forward to the party."
"Do you have limits I should know about?"
"Sorry for staring, but your breasts are magnificent"

I apologize to jwik01 for hijacking this thread, but I'd like to have this thread be the consolidated place to report issues you might run into.

I seem to be stuck in an error state, only getting "This is a bad place.You shouldn't be here." even after clearing cache and switching browsers. Any ideas?

I believe it should be fixed now. There was an issue rolling out phase 4 where some player's state did not get correctly reset. Sorry for the inconvenience!

That did it, thanks for the help!

I have encountered the "This is a bad place" screen if I use my save file where I've mind controlled Emma into loving me, and then have the option to have Renee give a bj in the bathroom, flash her tits, or talk to me about Dante and Lorelei.

After all those scenes,  and I go to see Lorelei, if I attempt to give her the ring after "hearing more details" is when the screen for "This is a bad place" appears. I only discovered this because I had hoped this particular path might lead to a "Lorelei boon" moment as Hereno has pointed out in the other thread but alas I may never know.

Hopefully this at least corrects a clear bug.

I believe that this problem should be fixed now, although it's a pretty tricky one. Let me know if it continues!

Chatting in the coffeeshop with Emma:

Most of the time you know she broke up with her boyfriend from the conversation the day before.  At the coffeeshop she can also say that she dumped him.  In response to her saying that you can again ask about her relationship status.  I've seen this in more than one scenario.  The current one I have up is: kneeling skirt when asking you for coffee, (opening speech says no boyfriend), choose next week when back from Annie, then one of the options is "her new guy dumped her. By the way how's ... yours?"

Thanks! I believe this is fixed in 4.0.3, just pushed.

Very minor, there's a typo of watermlons if you're a boob fiend horn dog with Lorelei's boon and Allison. This was using Hereno's word track.

This is barely an inconsistency, but...

It's possible to never tell Allison about Annie's follow-up texts and requests, if you decide against going.

Quote
"Hello," she says, her voice sultry and full of promise.
You consider for a moment, but you decide not to tell her about Annie and her request right now. You're not going, so there's really no need to bring it up.
You two chat about your respective work for a few minutes.

Then if you visit the restroom before the kitchen, Renée will ask about Annie, claiming that Allison mentioned a possible trip while you were in the restroom.

Quote
"So," she says. "I understand Annie got back in touch with you."
"How did you know about that?"
"Allison mentioned it while you were in the bathroom," she says, and takes a sip of wine. "You're smart not to go. That sounds like a crazy situation." She takes another sip, her expression saying I'm surprised you didn't, knowing how you feel about Annie.

Note the line "smart not to go, that sounds like a crazy situation," which doesn't seem like a reasonable response to simply hearing that Annie texted you late the night before (which is all Allison knows at this point). Renée making reference to the concept of you going to see Annie seems like a small plot hole.  She might of course have a different information source and be lying when she says she heard about it from Allison. In this particular playthrough you didn't text or call Lorelei so the information wouldn't have come from that vector, for what it's worth.

Confirming that Allison didn't know:  the next morning over breakfast if you don't fuck Allison right away you can tell her about Annie's request, which surprises her.

Quote
You change the subject.
"I don't think I mentioned. That text from Annie? My ex? She wanted me to fly out to help her out with some kind of problem."
Allison blinks. "Wow. You haven't heard from her since you split, right?"
"Nope."
She shakes her head. "Whatever's going on must be pretty serious. Did you reply?"
"I told her I can't. It's too weird, and seeing her again would be too painful."
She smiles. "Well, you have my support either way, but I'm happy to have the weekend with you."
"She made some pretty serious offers, but... no. Not going to get involved."

The conclusion I would draw from this is that Renée knows more about Annie's situation than she lets on, certainly more than she was able to learn from Allison. Maybe that's not an inconsistency! I dunno. Seemed worth pointing out.

Yes, that's definitely a continuity error! I'll see what I can do to patch it over.

It's kind of interesting that depending on your choices, it might be that you tell Lorelei who tells Dante who tells Renée, or it might be that you tell Renée and Dante who tell Lorelei. Though that assumes that if Lorelei complains that you didn't tell her about Annie when you see her on Thursday, it's because she learned about it from Renée and Dante, which now that I think about it doesn't really make sense timeline-wise, so I guess Lorelei's knowing about it by Thursday morning must be attributed to her clairvoyance.

As timeline advances and the gamestate gets more complex harmonizing all the different possibilities becomes exponentially more complex. I suppose that's why, after seeing how complex Phase 4 is, I have to assume the game will end around Phase 6 or 7: the game's timeline will surely include Saturday and the party, bare minimum, and there's no way a single Phase could include Thursday night, all of Friday, AND Saturday. But the game continuing on with this play-by-play going into the following week seems unlikely.  (Maybe there will be an unlockable post-credits sequence where you enslave Marianne the HR lady, Monday morning.)

While I'm dithering on, I want to observe that it's very clever the way the appearance or disappearance of options in different circumstances signals information about the gamestate. I'm thinking specifically of how, if you're hypnotized by Renée, you don't get to choose how the coffee-shop-restroom sex goes, but there are plenty of other examples.

I dont know if this is just me being crazy but it seems like we have lost all but one way to use the voucher. I have tried 20 different runs with getting the voucher and now the only time it shows up to be used is after you leave reenes place. Once again it may just be me losing my mind and picking all the wrong things but i feel like repeating things i have done on previous runs to use it before entering reenes and it no longer showing up seems a little weird. If this isnt true then this post can be deleted.

On a run where you have rejected Annie.  I've hit two things.  One maybe intential, in the car on the way to Renee and Dante's Allison explicitly said, unprompted, that she did not want to go to an orgy.  Then when the party comes up she volunteers that the two of you would be happy to go.  This might be some else influencing her, but thought it worth mentioning.

Second, at the coffee house with Emma (blue skirt, kneeling picture), you have a planned Sunday brunch, she's interested in the play party, you have the option of "work still stressing you" or "dinner with good friend".  'Dinner' should propably be reworded.

Then same run with Renee.

Looking forward to the party: Renee says she wants to fuck Allison while you watch, with someone else servicing you.

Next options has "anything you would like to do with me?"  She just told you, so should probably be "anything else you..."

Post by: Daphne on January 20, 2025, 11:38:11 am

Is it the question, "Anything you'd like us to do together?"

That looks like the one.  I went to a double check since I had a save point right before the coffee shop, but you'd already changed it.

There is a typo when you have loreli kneeling in front of you as an experiment. "You can't stop what my cock is doing to yuou. Don't fight it. Let yourself fall under my spell."

On a space snake run, when in bed with Allison after dinner with Renee & Dante, you can ask her questions.  After asking her if she really wants a boob job she asks you how big.  After picking any of them from "their fine now" to "watermelon", you can explore her being your sex-toy, in that you ask again and you say "just a little bigger", no matter what you just told her.  I know the text acknowledges that this has already been asked, but the inconsistancy is that you've already stated your preference and now contradict yourself.

Quote
"Don't do it. Your tits are perfect already."
"A little bigger. Just enough to show you've done it."
"Big. As big as Renée's."
"Huge. Watermelon boobs."
...
"If I asked you to get a boob job, what would you do?" You try the question again, as an experiment.
Her gaze doesn't falter. "How big?" She gives no sign that you just asked her the same question.
"Just a little bigger."

ETA: specifically those are ignore the texts; no blow job; ask question; boob job; explore sex-toy.  If you add in other questions first, sometimes you say other things.  Running through that scene with looking at the texts; texting Lorelie; blowjob; cheating; boob job; as they are; explore sex-toy; you will say Renee sized.

Clearly something is getting set oddly.
