I may have cheated in a little (lot of) gold, but other than that it's legit.

For a quick recap of Nee's development so far, chapter 1 Nee is mainly motivated by her desire to be an adventurer, with the pred scenes being snap opportunism. We see pieces of her history in chapter 3, but also more active malice. By chapter 4, the pred scenes involve a lot more active premeditation and betrayal.

Spoiler: show

Depending on where in the castle you go first, one of the reasons Nee wants to get the the acting leader's friendship is explicitly so she'll have the opportunity to eat the princess... At which point, I also have to ask why only the princess? If her motives are so treacherous, why not fill up on easier targets like the young prince too?

Lily is a bit of a cipher right now, For the first two chapters, I assumed she was secretly responsible for all the reformation going on, though her absence in chapter 3 contradicts that. With all the torture she went through in the Drake cave and afterwards, I expected her to snap and go "No, I got this evidence, I decide what happens to it. You get a refresher course on recognizing where blame is being assigned, young lady."

Spoiler: show

Guess I'll have to settle for visualizing a certain pink-haired girl having rushed through her Nymph phase quickly (having done little real wrong) and taking the opportunity to punish Nee for a while in the future. Real emotions like that make it easy to hold onto a grudge.

After a good part of Chapter 3's tone involved Nee loosening up outside of her supervision and keeping the full extent of her actions secret afterwards, it's a bit weird having Lily just give up after they're back together.


Anyway, I'll catch up eventually. Good luck on the future projects. Though, speaking of scheming, I have an idea for a type of vore scene if the protagonist has reformation powers that aren't common. Say something like the Chef scene happens where the protagonist is caught off guard with a cheap shot. This could unlock a followup scene where she gets revenge using the gained knowledge of the opponent's movements - and the opponent's surprise to see them alive again.


Edit: Reached the end of chapter 4. I see what people meant by the plot picking up. The question of where a certain party member went seems to be deliberately left hanging. (Unless he's still hanging out in the dungeon.)

Thanks so much for your thoughtful playthrough and review of the first part of the game! I'm so sorry it took me so long to respond to this, but did you ever get any further? Whether or not you did, I would love to discuss the game and your thoughts on it in more detail!

Ah, thanks. I did make it a bit further than that - through the war sequence and cutscenes afterward. That was a fun bit. It's been a long time since I last picked up the game, though. Was there anything in particular you wanted to discuss?

The secret of Lily's identity was something I'd suspected from the start, and her frustration with a certain ruler was really well-done. Though, that was separate from her association with Nee, so my earlier complaints still stand despite the distance.

The Heroes were really built up well, though the details are a bit muddled now. Playing as them was really effective, as Nee was not at their level, but also a real contributor to the fight. It made me interested in where their plot goes...

Nee is developing, and showing that she can fill in for a conventional hero. But, her role in the story and side material seem to be becoming more heavily walled off from each other. It feels like it should only be a matter of time before they conflict directly.

Come to think of it, I was in the middle of revisiting old areas to see what changed when I put it on hold again. It felt like it was getting harder to find the side material...

You're close. Rather than going for the largest prize in the Hell Arena, you've got to go for the world record challenge, or whatever it's called.
