RPGM A Struggle with Sin [v0.6.0.1] [Chyos]

Chii said:

It's fine if you consider the gods plot more important, but as I see it the gods strife have very little influence in the most of the story overall and as long as they have followers they are very content in allowing whatever happens in the mortal world.
The struggle with sin as you put it is nothing but the MC's personal struggle to shape his decisions through every event he comes across (as you can read from the game's overview " Will you become like the others in this corrupt society? Or will you stay true to yourself and find a way out of the chaos that surrounds you?")

(I will also reiterate that Chyos has referred to the king's fight as the story's main plot as can be read from the last poll when talking about Anya's choice)

The area around the Frontline includes the cult, Syfa and the MC's lineage (corrupting cum) not just the Kings.

Finding Yasmine in the hideout had more to do with MC's story with the Cult, Isha, etc. then it did the war.

The war between the kings is background setting for the MC's story.

The cult, his choices, Isha, etc are the MC's story.

I'm not sure I follow. The frontline is to the west of MC's village (between Arenfield and Varon where Van sits) and where both kings made a stand, opposite side of both the monastery/kirlic/etc.

How are you relating this to either Syfa, the cult or MC's lineage?

Apartment817 said:

The game is called "A Struggle with Sin". One of the main mechanics is the MC's powerful semen. One of the first quests of consequence is "Control Your Lust". The MC's own corruption level is always on screen. Most of the games rewards are gained through corruption, corruption that relates to the gods (and probably the cult) but not the kings.

To say that the kings are more main to the plot, then the MC's relation to the mystic powers related to Isha and Athia is just wrong. There is no struggle with sin against the kings.

What makes you think so? That's just because Kirlic hasn't been integrated into the game yet. And how much have we seen of Van so far? There's still tons of content waiting that hasn't even been implemented yet.

The title alone means nothing. It's the content that counts. And so far the only three LIs where we really have problems with the desire, which causes problems if we don't keep it low. This LI's are Tia, Mira and Gwen. There are no problems with any of the other LIs. The story so far has mainly been about the consequences of the civil war and the conflicts between the two kings, or other groups like the orcs and the "Pact of wolves" who see their chance while the kings are smashing their heads. Of course that can still happen, but so far I don't see the gods playing a central role.

Okey i need help. The Mc's companions leading the group like (Lydia or Tia) how to change the Mc lead ? i mean like how to swap the lead character ?

Why ? This never happened before. Why suddenly the Mc's companions leading, like In the front ?
It's weird and makes no sense !

Probably a bug, please report how it happened for chyos, for now try letting them back in the village and add them again, see if it goes back to normal

Dev broke the game.
There is NO way to change it.
I tried exiting and reentering town. I tried removing Tia from the party for a day.
When you add her back to the party, she takes the lead.
The game is quite literally broken until a patch or update.

I haven't encounter that bugg so far but, you may try to get Tia, Lyvia and/or Bianca to go stay in Aranfield instead of following you. You can then try to go outside of aranfield alone, and the go back and get them to follow you again. That may avoid the issue.

You can also try to go back to a previous save were you didn't have the problem to avoid it entirely.

Nope. Tried that.
It happens when you start a new game.
When you first get Tia. As soon as she is added, she is the leader.
It will affect every player who starts a new game when Tia is added to the party.

Actually, it makes quite a lot of sense, at least from the RPG's point of view. TANKS are leading the way. And Tia is quite the tank herself. A Mammoth Tank I would say, but unable to fire those two battle cannons... At least until Chyos is going to add pregnancy content for her.

I can't really think of any problem it can do, other than you having simply a different party order. But if you want to fix it without messing with files, you can simply remove and add your party members again to the party and they should get in right other. But you will have to do it again if you, once again, manage to get your party members in wrong order.

Hmmm.... Weird. Can I borrow a save file from you?

Not sure how to attach a rpgsave. Hopefully this works

What exactly is the main plot at this point though? The stuff involving the war, the cult, or the Athia vs Isha stuff. Because all seem equally important to me. I never really felt like this game had a real main story. Just multiple major storyline that tie into each other.

The War , everything else intertwines to it.

does any encountered anytime you enter Rumah the campfire animation will get stuck on the screen then anytime you witness any animation it would be stuck on the screen as well?

Imawyn Bonus Scene And Rework

Good afternoon,

the 0.6.0.0 update is now finally patched for the most part (smaller hiccups will remain but will be addressed in the coming updates) and for me it was now time to work on Imawyn's bonus scene.

In the course of this, I would also like to rework Imawyn's old pictures, as I originally intended to do in the last rework update (where I reworked her scenes inside the tent), but then postponed due to time constraints.
This also includes giving her a new clothes. The textures for her old armor are outdated and also have multiple clipping errors (which I previously had to edit out in very laborious painting sessions). I also want to get away from her wearing mail/plate armor at all, since she's not a warrior after all, but a mage.
I have discussed the topic with some of you yesterday and we've come up with a version for the final outfit. But after some more feedback I also took into consideration that the outfit we decided on would contradict her character at the beginning (it is too revealing), which is against any form of sexual interaction. For this reason, I have now designed a 2nd outfit for her which she will wear at the beginning, before she is captured. In the process of her character progression, which I will also slightly adjust to make the progression more reasonable, she will transition over to the new outfit.
So for the bonus scene I will not only make the actual scene at the camp but will also rework scenes like her BJ at prison and images with her and Emily during the kidnapping.
Further more I will add in Bianca into the camp scene as this is a good opportunity to do so (nothing big, just her dancing and sittint near the fire).

So still a lot to do! I'm currently in the middle of working on sprites, dialog images and of course the rework of the images as you can see from the title image. This will continue a bit longer today until I finally call it a week.
The plan is to complete this bonus scene next week so that we can then go directly to the cult storyline with Arianna in March.

Mayor: There is currently a bonus scene prevote running on discord. Aside from the first place also the 2nd is important, as in some cases this will result in a direct winner for the bonus scene addition next time. the poll will run for 42 hours at the moment of this report.
The next bonus scene poll will then go live with the new option added in on Monday.

That's all for now, I wish you all a nice weekend!

Yep... my old save file corrupted and i need to start new game, now i see why.

It works well, thank you.

My mistake, I should be more precise in my writting. I do, in fact, meant to ask for save file and global file too. Good think you though ahead of me and included it.

As for putting files... you can attach, almost, any file by either attach files option or by simply dropping it into the post window.

And, as for ASS, I checked your save files, I did a little diggin' into ASS files and those common event used for adding and removing companions are working as intended. So I have no bloody idea what's is causing this issue on new playthrough, but not the old. So I can't be, sadly, mucho of a help. In Chyos we trust.

It's way too grindy to raise up Ugotha's affection!
