RPG RPG Maker [DEVIL'S OFFICE] SHRIFT (RJ209839)

[Aesthetic]

Seems like a late spring/early summer release for EX3 given the release pattern of EX1&2.

To be honest, Shrift has been complete for over a year now, and so far we've gotten two DLCs and two EX stages. It kinda feels like the developer should've moved on by now and focus entirely on production of Shrift II. Instead we're probably looking at EX3&4 this year, and then Shrift II next year. But I get it, he made the promise of 4 EX stages awhile ago, so he's gotta fulfill it. Still I kinda wish he didn't. I'm more excited for the sequel than more DLC.

Just my opinion.

I half agree and half disagree.

I half agree, because I'm very excited for Shrift 2 and its new systems. I am a bit worried about it as well though. He said he's going to make it into a more traditional RPG experience where you fight multiple (not at the same time) enemies, and go down a skill tree and whatnot. These types of games require a high enemy count or else you'll get bored of the combat, however; he's giving himself more work per enemy. Each enemy gets 2 camera views per scene so it doubles the work per scene.

I half disagree, because the story of Kazuya ends at Shrift 1 it seems.

I'm quite fond of him and his heroines so seeing new sides to them is just as exciting as the new game is to me. There's also only 2 EX bosses left then the dragon inside the crystal, so I'm quite curious as to how it will all turn out. ALSO! AND THIS IS IMPORTANT! I don't have enough SP XD. I want to use all of Kazuya's moves. I want a Hell Break, Cool Calm, Rising, Sylph Storm combo.

Does it where I got the game from because I got it from the english DL site but i cant find where the EX Dungeons are. Also I am wondering if i van do the genocide route and then be able to remove it later?

Well, i mean EX2. I am P sure the English version of the DL Site is caught up to the Japanese one.

@Ryuten Genocide consequences may be removed through playing subsequent Neutral and TM routes afterwards. As for why you can't find EX dungeons...have you completed the game already? What's the version of your game? Latest should be 6.02 iirc.

I have beaten the joke ending and the good ending, as for the version of the game. It does not say on the DL site and i dont know where i can find the version on the game. DL site just says that on 1.14.20, it was " Correction: Bug/Effects" which is the version i got.

You can access the EX dungeon through the good ending. Just go examine the crystals.

I just found out my Version of the game is 4.18 huh.... Why is the English Version of the DL Site behind 2 whole updates?

Dunno, but I think you're better off exchanging (? I'm not sure if that's possible) your eng version for jp and downloading @Lv1VillagerA's translation?

I mean i am using that translation patch and it says that it is V4.18, and it is likely i wont be able to exchange it. So that is a feels bad. I at least can do the Ex dungeons. I am still scared of doing the Genocide route..... and somewhat scared of doing the neutral route

This shouldn't be true, I've bought the game on English DLSite and you can always download the latest version there (currently v6.03). Redownload the new version, and copy over your Save folder and PublicData.rvdata2, and everything should be good.

V4.18 is almost 11 months out of date, so I wonder how you would have gotten that version.... ;3

Kill it with fire.

 

[Ryuten]

So I have decided not to go genocide route due to me working pretty hard to get all of their friendship high one my first play through of the game when i went for 100% friendship with all. Am i missing much from the Genocide route? same goes for the Neutral route? I am missing 5% of the book and i am guessing that comes from the genocide route and neutral route. I do have a separate copy of the game just in case you guys say it is worth doing it the other 2 routes.

?? Wait, have you not seen the latest patch thread? There should be a link in my signature to the new patch thread, which has a lot more updated patches that hand translate up to and including Chapter 2-3, and machine translate up to and including EX1.

Here's the direct link: https://ulmf.org/threads/shrift-translation-version-2-0-machine-and-manual-translation.13278/

To get what your actual Game Version is, look in your game folder for the two text files with JP names.



Both of them should have the *game* version listed on the top. If you've been using any of the latest patches I've been putting out, they should also have the patch version as well as the minimum game version they support on the front screen, like this:



I'd make sure you have the latest patch I've been giving out from my thread, first.

Lv1Villager has been AWOL, so I've taken over the translation project. It looks like he's still on a patch from when Lv1Villager was around, which is fairly out of date by now.

 

[Ginek]

Yeah, about that.

Thanks. I actually got the latest English patch due to you. Thanks a bunch.

Am i missing much from the Genocide route?

Story-wise? A lot. Whole T͖̲̬h͇̜̭͈e͇̠̬ ̶̠O͚͓̼͚̲̙̭̕l̼͎͜d͇̺̬͡ ͎̩̲̮̜̭͝O̹̱͢n̵̬̬̲̦͈e arc. And an opportunity to fight Hyakki Oni.
Scene-wise? Nothing.

same goes for the Neutral route?

Again, only some story pieces. Not so much as in Genocide route tho.
There are five variations of Neutral ending depending on your actions.

Also, you may want to marry each girl to see their extended ending.

I am missing 5% of the book and i am guessing that comes from the genocide route and neutral route.

Your guess is wrong - all the book (96% for the current version, the game is still incomplete, technically) can be unlocked by clearing True Mercy route alone.

I do have a separate copy of the game just in case you guys say it is worth doing it the other 2 routes.

There is no need - for now all but one route-specific content locks are reversible. You can t̪͉͔̹̲̫u̱͔r͉͜n̡̝ a̮̬̣͚͙͍l̳̗l̮̗͕̬͉̲͢ ̦̳̠͚͙̱ṱ̵h̬e̸̝̗̪͍̺ ͍͔̦̭̦d̠͈͈e̥͓̫͉͜ͅv̢̹i̠̣͇̻͙̠l̥͙͉̱͉̤s͏̺̳ ̗̫in҉͚̗͎̬t́o̹̲̥̦̱ ͠a͔̠͍͉̠̟͚ s̖̱͜t̺̗̖̯͔̘̟ea̖̲̖̦m͕̩̮̦į̤͚͕͔͍͍ng̰̝͓͈͇̼͡ ̨͚̰̤͎̱͇p̷͕̱̟i̜͈̺̲l҉̠̳̹̬̦͖̩e ̧o̲̰̯̰͕̟͜f͕̖͜ ͓̮̜̰͍g͇͇̗u͍̩̗̲̯̤̲r̜͕̮o̭̘̠͚ and then just save all of them two runs later like nothing have ever happened.
