Loren romance graph and some info about add-on

[jack1974]

obviously the three on top cannot be dateable. I know that Dora would have been cool, but I was bit uneasy having some spicy images with her "too young" look so I decided to exclude her at last minute, I'm sure you'll understand
EDIT: Amukiki now is bisex, while Draco BxB only. I think fits better both characters

Also the add-on will contain 3 extra romances. Those characters (Chambara, Sauzer and Mesphit) will appear in the main game but you won't be able to recruit them. In the add-on, you'll be able to have them in your party and also romance two of them. The add-on will contain some extra quests independent of the main storyline that can be played at any moment.
The expansion while not huge will contain a good amount of content so will be indicatively priced at $9.99.
I'm thinking to have a pre-order option for $19.99 (or $24.99, have yet to see how big the game will become!) that will include the add-on for free. The add-on will be released 1-2 months max after the main game, and those who pre-ordered (before a certain date that I'll announce in forums/blog/twitter) will receive it free.

Well as for Dora she could be an adult but just have that small form. That's how a lot of publishers handle the loli thing. For instance in Atelier Rorona in japan she was younger but when they brought it to the states they made her older (even though she looked the same) because they were afraid of that. Although if you have her then you should have a shota (boy version of loli) then for the girls as well. Heck there's a lot of games with shota as well, Tokimeki had a shota as your TEACHER and you could romance him (http://www.tehvidya.com/2011/01/tokimeki-memorial-girls-side-3rd-story-oosako-get/http://www.tehvidya.com/2011/01/tokimeki-memorial-girls-side-3rd-story-taiyo-get/ are two shota characters in Tokimeki). Plus I must say that there is a huge loli/shota crowd if you browse forums and webpages. Sad as well my time with Mesphit will be shorter. Ah well, here's to still hoping an equally smexie dark elf in the sequel!

One of my thoughts though on the romance options is Karen for female? I'd have imagined Myrth more, even I thought she was cool/sexy when I first saw her. Other then that I like it a lot! Wasn't Draco supposed to be an elf though or did artist not draw ears again there? o.O

PS. pst~ http://carmentis.wordpress.com/ you can tell also I'm in a fairy kick see how cool fairies can be to

Yes, but just wanted to play safe for this game. In future, might do such things

Indeed he is an elf, I suppose his ears could be inside the hair... I think will solve it saying that he is an half-elf.
About Myrth yes, I thought about that but I didn't want to have a game where basically everyone is bisex! Beside Karen being an Amazon was more suited, and also I like the romance between young and "older" women

I have no doubts fairies can be cool!

My writer, a female, said that was suggested that Amukiki wasn't available as girl x boy romance. I have to agree, since I was quite dubious too at first. Problem is that if I make him available for girl, I should find someone else instead of Rei (I can change the image easily since the romance scenes haven't been done yet).
Will think about it, meanwhile any opinions are appreciated!

[Carmentis]

Well I gave you some opinions already, like loli/shota (which I'm shota ), but I assumed Amukiki was a pure homosexual as some guys are.

Problem is though all these options are based solely on looks. I honestly change my mind a lot of the time when I actually play a game. For instance in Magical Diary by Hanako Games, I was squeeing over Damien but then I hear that he's like a player or something and I instantly would NEVER romance him. So it depends a lot on that to me.

[jack1974]

Yes that's true, but the fact is that Amukiki is the classic archetype of "big guy". So that already gives him a personality trait - I mean I can have even someone like a dwarf act tough but doesn't make the same effect as a 2 meter tall guy
Besides, ahem... <coughs> you can imagine that in certain situation someone like Amukiki can grab you up with both hands and have a nice pose for a romance CG...

[jack1974]

An user suggested to have Amukiki bisex and Draco BxB only. Indeed BxB only seems more fitting for Draco Could do this one, I have a CG already drawn with Draco and Elenor but is more funny than sexy so I could use it in another contest...

That's true but to me he seems like the 'Conan' type and one woman isn't enough for that type of character but they don't necessarily have to be like that. A lot of characters are memorable because they break those stereotypes.
Plus do you mean manhandling? I agree I certainly enjoy that. I think that's why I enjoy those mech/android and such romances. Just all that raw power and strength, mmmm! =d But there's manhandling then just all around violation, if you catch my drift. If the girl LIKES being manhandled then that's hot as all heck but if not then he's just forcing himself on her. Those mech pictures I sent you to are prime examples.

OMG! I had that in my head and totally forgot to! Draco does seem to be more likely choice between Rei and Draco for the BxB coupling. He seems to be very submissive and I could see Saren being the Alpha Male type of thing he goes for.

Wait a minute! Plot spider... senses... tingling...

How is Karen a lesbian? Doesn't Loren's... existance kinda get in the way of that?

Well there are some violent relationship, a bit like Damien / Lisa in Planet Stronghold. In theory he forces himself but in the end...

Yes, is fun because so far in the plot he always joke and stares at women, but maybe... it's just a cover!

Amazons use men but only to procreate so Karen to give birth to the princess/future Queen had to mate with a slave, obviously carefully selected to guarantee good genes to the new daughter
