Ah. You mean an entirely different area, not the convent in that ruined town.View attachment 17071 ............
Hmm I still don't see how the 2 stories are related but I guess that's the explanation.Full name of game is Ariadne the Incarnation. So the author is comparing our heroine to the Greek myth concerning the daughter of Minos. See wiki on myth here:You must be registered to see the links
Could well be the case. They had a major contributor quit recently as well and that could be related. Googlish for blog news item.Hmm I still don't see how the 2 stories are related but I guess that's the explanation.
I was certain the fat guy you meet in the beginning would have a part in the story later on but never came out.
In the earlier demos from last year, he had his own standing picture and everything which would indicate that he was a main character. I'm guessing that the story would have been somewhat like the game Valkyrie Destruction by Poison where the guy partner would be pretty much an interference holding back the heroine from achieving her goal. This change would probably explain the game being delayed for so long.

Eclipse works.
so he quit make game now...its our fault how sad.Could well be the case. They had a major contributor quit recently as well and that could be related. Googlish for blog news item.
He always uses two Crit -boosting buffs in a row before using his ultimate skill, so just use Parry after he's used those. Simple.View attachment 17072
avoid high + spell, he cant hit u hehe
Already been done, I believe in ver 1.02. Version 1.03 now out and 1.04 forthcoming. No one has posted the new versions and I haven't purchased (yet). Wouldn't do anyone else any good as I can't upload that big a file with my ISP.Hm... seem that they are gonna release a new version to fix the balance of the game. Wonder if i read it correctly?
From etigoya's walkthrough (edited):I think the balancing is fine. Lvl 99 and skill able to be killed by simple mobs. They can "balance it" by making skill learning faster, and adding more and better equipments. Preferably, a 4th accessory slot.
When I posted earlier that I had a sudden increase in flashes for skills, I had used the "Revelatory Drop" just before that point. Used it just to try to see what it did but did not realize it had caused skills to flash at that time. I didn't even equip the scrolls, just had them in inventory. Was fighting in desert and came upon the "metal mob" (shiny silver blob) which always drops a +50 stamina bracelet.For easy get skill
- use "Revelatory Drop"
, better before boss fight use it, metal mob easy up skill too
- equip 天啓の髪飾り (quest 27 reward or can buy in fairy town, orc selling, 6th one)
- equip skill scroll
(magic bookcant get skill), keep use the equip skill until get it
Really? Hmm.... I guess that makes sense. At least for people using partial translation.Well, technically you do not need to upload the images, just the data folder.
Isn't that smaller for you to upload madman3237?
Welcome to mid 2012-present. Old, fat, dirty, horrendously repulsive men in EVERYTHING. I guess it's impossible to denigrate a woman unless you look like you were born from the ugly tree, and then viciously beaten by it for years.Am I the only one for whom it's a MIGHTY turn-off in-game to watch old geezers or fat basement loosers, that have no clue about mental or physiological hygiene, somehow getting their warty dicks sucked by pretty young lasses ?
I personally think that the author wanted to put his personal experiences in this game. He, like many of us is a fat nerd with glasses, but he dropped it, because he did not want to be that guy anymore.I haven't played the demo, but from what I gather reading about the "fat guy" here, I am glad the concept has been dropped by Eclipse works.

First, let me be clear in that I have no particular prejudice towards either fat people or nerds (if I am definitely not fat, I probably qualify as a nerd, being on this forum and all).Welcome to mid 2012-present.

Soooooo.... replace fat, old men with tentacles?First, let me be clear in that I have no particular prejudice towards either fat people or nerds (if I am definitely not fat, I probably qualify as a nerd, being on this forum and all).
Next, it is exactly as you say. While I can respect someone's fetishes like anyone else, even more so if they appear in a game not of my doing (I just could create my own, I guess), there's a thing or two worth being said about boring repetitiveness and room for exploring other fetishes than those that we get to see over and over and over again in every fucking damn H-game released recently.
I have no illusion about it going to continue, and "Nippon always going to Nippon" in matters of eroges, but if I could motivate at least ONE author to come up with something different (dare I say mature and original?) in the future, especially if they aim to target a gaijin public (which also can appreciate this particular kind of games and does have money to spend on them, mind you), I feel it would be worth it.
So what is different you might ask ? For one, if the usual premise seems good to me, setting a hero/heroine in a predicament (being captured, abused, whatever), I would love to see it happening in a context/story that doesn't insult the intelligence of the average player.
Blackmailing as threat is good for narrative purposes if it's "believable". Eroge games created twenty years ago managed to present such situations in much more credible (and arousing!) ways than it's done nowadays. I don't want H-games/VNs to become anything "intellectual" or literary masterpieces overnight, if ever (like your usual pr0n movie, they're created with fapping in mind, first and foremost).
However, proof with this game (and others, like Arms Devicer, Haru Uru, Princess Sacrifice, Vampire Princess Heart, Sword Princess Cistina, etc., etc.) that you don't fucking need to make your eroge hero/heroine so fucking dumb, or the molesters so fucking outlandish (for the huge majority of players anyway), that the game is facepalming inducing instead of fap worthy. If I feel compelled to laugh at the sheer "stupidity" of some situations in-game, I feel the H-game achieves the contrary of what it should (and what I potentially would have bought it for).
So yeah, I'd love to see a H-game with REAL mind fuckery, with real corruption (not the fairly land-one, in which dirty old men/fat nerds somehow always seem to get the best spoils) or BDSM situations that come close to the real thing, because that's what appeals to me as an "adult/mature" fetish. I'd love to play a game in which the hero/heroine gets to be molested because of cunning deception, or because of threats that can be perceived as credible, either as a true danger ("say hello to my friend the knife here?") or as something that could potentially be very satisfying sexually but with huge risks.
Ideally the game would also give the player the option to actually turn the tides at the very end, and seek vengeance (like I've explained in my previous post). Gosh, I would buy the crap out of this DLsite release.
Keep producing/torrenting your standard mindnumbing nukiges, why not, I am (mostly) against any kind of censoring, but make the above happen one day, please. There's hope with good games like this one I guess, and AA2 in the near future hopefully being more challenging/interesting than a simple dress-my-doll clickfest too.
I knew someone would come up with that ^.^Soooooo.... replace fat, old men with tentacles?
