Hard to know for sure, but seems like this problem was linked to playing in full-screen for me. Though, oddly enough, F5 to reset would work on the few cases I tried it.

Seems easier from the last version to me (some bugs with trogs and bonepickers notwithstanding). Pretty much the same process as it's always been, only now you have initiate cards to equip once the skills are unlocked.
Check your sensitivity matrix or whatever to see how close you are to unlocking them. Also, working as a masseuse & accepting happy endings is a fairly easy way to gain cards to initiate oral and vaginal sex.
Seems that trogs won't initiate sex interactions. Gets to the point where they would and you can infinitely skip turns without it ever triggering (has happened twice and I think one counted in the log/matrix but can't be sure).
Also would still like an autoplay for sex loss cutscenes.
As always, great work though, Vel

Another issue is that when fighting two enemies ex. roughman & enforcer, the roughman can jerk himself off but the game will print that it was the enforcer
!And Major problem that hardlocks the game: if a bee smoker initiates sex after a bee swarm gets summoned combat never ends and there is nothing you can do. Can't even open menu.
!Initiating oral sex on a bonepicker will also lead to a hardlock.
Didn't see anyone else say this so could just be on my end, but it doesn't seem like sace bar actually does anything---only the enter key works
Personally, (understand if it's low on the to-do list) but would be nice if the s. cutscenes had an autoplay option (if there is one, I didn't see)
Also, those Harpy Hatchling softlock the game. They eventually stam drained me which caused me to collapse but they never do any willpower or move on to sex. So I'm stuck in a cycle of clicking to recover and they drop it back down
First, it's good seeing the updates continue to flow---your work's appreciated.
Just wanted to point out that asking Roy(?) the librarian about Natasha and Izabel will cause this message: "Error: <<set>>: bad evaluation: Cannot set properties of undefined (setting 'IzabelaProgress')"
There's also an issue when Amber first introduces PC to Alex Knight, she'll use the default Player Name, "Rachel Nash", instead of the custom name.
Find enemies with vag preference and play defense until you unlock (lust?/lewd?) initiate moves. You can see which interactions & how many of them you need within the character menu.
If you're going for vag, I recommend starting with its mark (choose the bathhouse option in the intro). It will raise corruption a bit faster---a stat needed for enemies to initiate sex until you unlock the ability to.
Edit: Heads-up tho, (basically what Queef said) I do not believe art is yet implemented for vag sex during combat. Other interactions are (ex fingering & cunnilingus) and the game does have vag sex art for bosses. You won't need the initiate skill to see the art for bosses tho. And to clarify on your first post, those defeat scenes will not change.
Yeah, agreed. But I guess to be a bit more constructive with my 2 cents, I think there is enough going on to where combat could be built upon without a complete overhaul.
It was wise to add different meters (emotion, stamina, and willpower), but they're wasted until players have more ways to directly engage with them. Imo, it'd be a solid improvement if ways to engage in ""peaceful"" combat actions were added. These could even interact with willpower, our corruption/sensitivity, as well as the enemy's lust. Better still if those actions include art to show what's happening. The game has a talented artist, just would like to see more of it.
--At the very least, combat needs to have an option to surrender and fall without having to force the loss of stamina
There's still good here tho; I really do like Saria's character design. There is potential and imo this is a game that's worth keeping an eye on its progress. All in all, just hope those peaceful techniques aren't overlooked and will be viable against most enemies. Sometimes devs focus too much on purity runs and the ""pacifist"" options are either non-existent or just lead to the same exact game over cutscene.

(Since enemies can 'die' from lust but Saria doesn't have any actions/techniques she presently can do to increase their lust, I imagine it's an intended feature. But time will tell if we get anything more than those passive stat changes. I really do hope the dev(s) stay/s motivated, best of luck Velminth!)
