TLS 0.60.3 Public Release

New update is public! I see all you in the comments. ^-^

Download*: https://mega.nz/file/nw8zyCKC#mxk67Zo7kCwcomDucDL_bqZphTE5Drbn8nvU1X4WyHE
Mirror*: https://www.mediafire.com/file/fo8hs8hw4qhpqsz/TLS+0.60.3.exe/file
RTP: https://mega.nz/file/G91k0J6R#LQ9v_W5jwFvIUGagk1sW6Vk_dpIyqhS5fgk8_SIzwy8

*Requires RPG Maker VX Ace RTP to be installed. If you don't know what that means, use the RTP link.

This one was a beast to get out, more than it should have been. But chaos aside, this one has a ton of different content I hope everyone will appreciate. There's more plot than a normal open world update, new harem members, lots of new scenes, and a new quest that should be fun for everyone who likes fiddly optimizing.

You'll hear from me again about future updates and the OEA release, but for now I hope everyone enjoys this one!

  3. Oh fuck, weary understanding is so HOOOOOT!!

    XD

    I laughed so hard at this. Still just starting out exploring the new update, as can be seen, but there's no doubt it'll be as enjoyable as all the other updates, maybe even more now that we've got a nice open world to explore again.

    I'll give more on my thoughts when I've gone through things properly. I just couldn't resist making a comment after that scene. XD

    2. "I've been waiting a long time for you to call me a cunt!"

      Ok, this line alone has got to be my absolute favorite this update. Maybe even my new favorite in the whole game. XD

      Given that Sarai is one my favorite characters in the game, her meeting with Ivala (once it became clear such a meeting would be possible) was something I eagerly anticipated and the scene did not disappoint.

      Wynn being her usual self was fun, though running around looking for all the quest spots was a bit annoying. Then again, it might be because I started exploring other areas first and Givini was something like the fourth or fifth to last place I visited, so that did make me end up revisiting everywhere again.

      "The blessing of Ivala grants Simon 1 experience."

      Nice throwback to how Simon was getting single digit bonus EXP way back at the start. And maybe a double entendre of gaining only 1 EXP in terms of sexual experience. XD

      Would have been hilarious if Simon got 1 EXP every time someone viewed a sex scene with her. Imagine someone grinding EXP for levels that way. XD

      I'm curious about a few things. Will we be able to visit and explore the rest of Thennours before end game? And will there be more content surrounding Rodak? It feels real sad seeing them in that state when I went to check. Was honestly hoping there was even some minor text change indicating whether or not there was some progress with their recovery and such.

  5. I KNEW Wendis wasn't going to give actual useful items at the end, and I still did it because I love your descriptions of items. I noticed this in the Prison, but seriously, your game is amazing even in the little things. Thanks for the best game I've ever played.

  7. I have a save in the "20: Incubus War" and I can't access the open world section, I don't know if I missed something or is there a problem my save form previous version?

    1. Saves in that waiting room should automatically be moved on to the new content - I did test this earlier and it looks right. Not sure what could be the issue with your save, but any save from just prior should also work.

  9. i know this might seem like a stupid question, but how do I let Simon recover from his ordeal .I feel like I've talked to everyone in the base, but i cant seem to get it

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Not a stupid question! It's not possible to fully recover Simon just in the base (though there are several things that help there). There are a few conversations in the world that help him get closer, and finishing any harem quest will also contribute. Once you have enough, it will happen automatically when returning to the base.

      Delete
  10. Ah, there is a problem - when creating the Eldritch Ribbon, the code checks for whether you have it in the inventory for pre-creation dialogue, then removes it if you do have it and then checks for it again when creating the actual Eldritch Ribbon. As a result, you get the version as if you were missing it if it was in the inventory instead of equipped. And if it is equipped, the ribbon doesn't delete itself, so you get the better version and the old ribbon is still equipped.

    Also, God, I can't believe it doesn't provide status immunities. I hope Simon gets another unique item or status or something in the future for it, because otherwise the dillema is going to tear me apart.

  11. I'm getting an error of "Extraction Failed" every time I try to run either .exe file (including the RTP). Not a disk space issue and same error arises when trying to run as admin -- game gets to unpacking the Alonon file and then hits me with the error.

    Is this an issue on my end? Really looking forward to the update, but can't seem to get the game open.

    1. I would suggest looking into it on your end, though I'm not sure what to tell you aside from deleting and trying a clean download. If the files were broken, I'd be getting a flood of reports.

    2. Turns out it was a filesize issue -- extracted it to an external drive and worked fine. Weird as I had like 100G of disk space left, but I'm not gonna pretend to understand the juju at play here.

      Thanks!

  12. Magnificent update in terms of plot)) Yet Wynn alone was slightly not enough)) Therefore looking for future updates)
    I have a question on harem quests. Do you plan to introduce a quest for each harem member remained,goddesses included? If you do, are they planned for this open world phase, or there will be a "post-final" open world phase to deal with harem's personal issues? Thank you for your time, both for developing and answering.

    1. Most characters will receive one, but not the very late arrivals, or those who already join based on a quest of optional content. Neranda won't get one, for example, since freeing Eustrin is already essentially her quest.

  13. Is there actually something to be done with the winery besides just selling your stake in it for Pron? Haven't found anything yet but it feels like somebody out there must want it for some benefit.

    1. It's a profit investment, just one that only arrives too late for another profit cycle.

  14. This game is great! Definitely one of the best eroge I've played and I've played a bunch - despite the fact that I find rpg maker combat pretty boring for the most part. The sound design, story, characters and world building are all top notch. It's also really funny in a lot of places.

    In addition to the praise I have a few questions:
    In the current update Aka mentions that Lilith has absorbed Mestan somehow, which was confusing to me. I thought he died and Simon took his shard? What was left to absorb, how would Lilith have gotten into that prison and how would Aka know that? I can't remember a scene like that happening during the prison segment.

    And then I have a piece of feedback/question concerning the development plan of the harem quests: Iris quest was introduced after the second Gathering (iirc) but you can now complete it as early as the first free-roam section of Chapter 5. Normally this wouldn't matter much, but since her quest gives recurring proN returns, optimizing your finances would mean having to replay most of Chapter 5 to get that additional round now. Since I am assuming we will get a lot more harem quests, do you plan on giving proN (especially recurring) as a reward for more of them? If so, I would suggest only making them available at the same point in the story as the other content of the update they are introduced in, especially since I'm guessing Chapter 5 will go on for quite a bit longer still.

    Keep up the great work!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Thanks, glad you've enjoyed it!

      What you're describing is a bit of a continuity issue based on the different ways Mestan can die, and also what goes on behind the scenes. If you had taken the other path with Mestan, you'd have seen Lilith absorb him. But either way, Lilith inherits Mestan's relationship points. It's possible that Aka's line should be rephrased.

      I won't promise that no harem quests will be available earlier, but the majority will only unlock after the Incubus War.

  15. Hey Sierra! Awesome update but I run into a funny bug? I've been replaying chapter 5 and when I begin Incubus Prison, I already have all the equipment (minus the holy crystal ones, thankfully). I'm talking all the weapons and armor and everything. It's kinda funny but it ruins the challenge of the Prison, you know?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Oh and Incubus King Sword and Key and 2 Demonic gems in the Key Items, too. It's like I got the best full loadout after Final Lock, since I've got no consumables at least. And when I picked up Broken Horn (the first weapon you get in IKP, it added one to my inventory, so I had two.) I don't know if it matters, but I've been playing version 59.3 from the start, and I upgraded to 60.3 from mega immediately after Second Gathering.

      Delete
    2. I can't think of a way this could happen via eventing, so I think it's most likely that this is the inverse version of the partyswap bug. This is something that I can't handle myself, because it involves a broken script, but I hope we will be able to implement a solution eventually.

      Delete
    3. Oh, man. Can I scale down to 59.3 with my saves from 60.3? I have a save in Place of Magic Core which is just before the prison. Or do I need to play back all the way from Second Gahthering back when I stopped playing 59.3?

      Delete
    4. Hi... This is DukeLeto7, I've been given responsibility for fixing the PartySwitch bug because I pissed off Poseidon or something...

      1) JKD_666, would you mind going to PartySwitch bug fixing central at the TLS wiki forum and post some saves? Preferably one from before entering the Incubus Prison, one from just after entering, and one from the first point where you can save after the prison (the Amethyst Vinyard.)

      https://thelastsovereign.flarum.cloud/d/21-bugs-thread

      I'd like to test your saves against the potentially fixed version of the code to see if it also kills your bug.

      2.) We've never actually established why it is that some people get their saved default party overwritten with a copy of the party from the start of the game in the orthodox PartySwitch bug, but we do know that it gets into the save file data BEFORE the start of the Incubus Prison. There's theoretically nothing stopping the damned thing from getting overwritten by a copy of Simon's party at the end of the Incubus Prison... But since JKD_666 had apparently never played through the 0.59 content before, he can't be the source of that save data... which would mean it had to be distributed with the installation, which would mean it's coming from inside Sierra's house! DUN DUN DUMMMM!

      3) Would someone kindly get me a bottle of scotch and a handgun? Thanks.

      Delete
    5. I've just posted the three saves you wanted. And hang in there! I'm sure I'm speaking for everyone when I say we all appreciate your troubleshooting.

      Delete
    6. In case you weren't aware, there's a test version of the fixed game at the Bugs Forum, and we're having folks test their own saves against it.

    1. Great update, as always. But I've noticed some inconsistencies or errors, which is expected with so many permutations.
      One: Ralke seems to be in my game. I failed the Orc Extermination proposal way back.
      Two: I've saved the ship crew, but got dialogue indicating that they didn't make it.
      Three: (SPOILERS) This will be hard to comb through, but due to Trin no longer being alive. Scenes like achieving Eustrin final have dialogue mentioning her as if she's with us. Then there's the papers where she used to be triggering her speech.

      Delete
    2. One: Can you please specify WHERE you saw Ralke? If it's a Ralke event lacking proper switches, tracking him down is going to be a major headache.
      Two: If this is the orc in the Yhilin throne room, that has already been reported. If not, again, please specify where.
      Three: Maybe I can convince SeriousBlueJewel that trawling through the EventContents dump cataloging Trin dialogue is a hazing ritual for new wiki editors... (I can use the same basic plan for this as with my completed catalogue of unhandled instances where maxed gals have RP maluses, I just really don't want to.)

      Delete
    3. Ralke is in homebase, training grounds. Dialogue is "Ummm... not get it quite right. Defeat HUMAN King. Not Incubus."

      Delete
    4. Ralke in the base and Trin's papers, I have fixed. Instances of Trin's death are harder to search out. If you still have the appropriate saves, exact quotes and where you got them are very helpful.

      Delete
    5. When Simon is impregnating Neranda, right after Robin shows up. Yarra says "This was a blast! You know who would really enjoy this? We've gotta tell Trin!"

      Delete
    6. Fixed it, thanks! One thing that I said to patrons (but not publicly) is that I didn't have the energy to hunt down every possible Trin case like this. If you ever run into more, please just report where they occur as specifically as possible.

  18. Hi!!!!
    Oh boy, Sierra, you brought the big guns there. Let's see if I can get through it in one go.

    -It went so fast that I didn't really realized it, but that blietzcreig was still a war. I've already said it in the previous update, but as our focus grow increasingly more distant and complicated, it becomes harder and harder to relate to the worries of the people. By that, I mean that the first thing that comes in mind during an attack is the stability of the nations, and not the people that compose it. I find this quite sad and scary. If we are already this detached after only a few years of reign, what will we be like after a few centuries? Ginasta worries are justified.

    -So we never did get an explanation on why monsters get stronger. Is it because of HER hazardous manipulations on reality, or is there another shadow behind the scenes (and if yes, how many more will there be? XD)?

    -Oh dear, so Simon is literally the archetype of Unlucky Villager A? The one in the first quest who doesn't make it even in New Game +? Damn, talk about being a true neutral. But it's not so bad to be a 'natural average'. Being ultra specialized boost your strengths, but also create more blind spots and weakness. An all rounder have comparatively more chances at survival.

    -It must feels so great to have a goddess shipping you XD....

    -"Destiny can go". Agreed. Reminded me of the part where Thanos talk about destiny (aka himself (this dude was pretty self-centered, not gonna lie)) : "Dread it, Run from it, Destiny still arrives.". So when it's time, let's all be careful, and avoid Thor mistake : "You should have aimed for the head!!!". And always triple tap to make sure. Don't make a remake of the movies when Dracula always revive after we left..... XD

    - Wynn quest was pretty cool, except the fact that I visited the Guild last, so I had to revisit everything again.... Sigghhh...... At least we have made her change her mind. A bit. And I agree with her (not about most of the people being stupid (although....)). If you mess up one calculation, you can kiss humanity goodbye. Have you seen all the killer AI/cyborg/robot movies out there? XD

    1. -Please let us find that Antarion b*stars again soon. Didn't find the Magekillers too, I want to complete my Pokedex XD

      - *Went through the harem. Selected S*x option*. Simon : "........". Goddamn it, didn't work. It won't be easily healed with constant exposure like for eating vegetables, right? (I still don't like ratatouille though, so I doesnt' work in the first place XD)

      -Yaaaayyyy, you put more harem slots!!!!! Hooorrraaayyy!!!! I won't have as much heartache as I though!!!! I can complete most of my Pokedex!!!! I can indulge in my obsessive compulsive completionist urges!!! Wooohooo!!! *cough, cough* Anyway, this is cool, thanks XD. And since you added one more space in Others category, you can be sure to hear again the weird guy who want all future scenes to be about Hester geriatrics XD

      -I liked the tent ^^. But how did they secured it in the stone floor? It's gonna leave some nasty marks....

      -"Wait, wait, we are a Harem with a standard!!! Do you want to f**k him later? Yes? Then we're cool!!! I'll.... just see myself out then...." Hahahahahaha, just imagine her behind the corner, listening with rapt attention XD But yeah, I still feel bad for her. She was dismissed so cruelly.... Oh well, Simon gonna heal her anyway. Too bad for you Annie!!!! (Yup he doesn't deserve his name after that. You don't treat a lady like that, damn it!!! Unless she has masochistic neglect play fetish, but even then you mustn't abuse it. Harsh fetish must be used as few times as possible)

      - Yaaayyy, we got Wolf Lady!!! And her books!!!! I hope we can complete our collection before the end of the world. Anyway, let's see who will influence the other more..... (read it at 'Will she fall for us?'. I feel slightly bad at running after women like they're items to collect, but it would be a good thing for them, so why not? Go team!!!)

      Delete
    2. -So yeah, about Lilith. Is she.... mourning? I mean, he was a part of her after all, and who says that chaotic eldrich entities don't have a heart? Like Chtululu, when he arises and brings madness to everyone, isn't that because he just want to take a stroll and everyone go crazy with fear by themselves? The poor fellow is just misunderstood!!! It still doesn't change the fact that it's better to keep him sleeping forever. Just in case. Anyway, returning to the point, since he was a fragment, is it 'theorically' possible to revive him? He wouldn't have memories, and he wouldn't be the same person but it would be nice to 'save' him. At least it would make us feel better.

      - I understand her viewpoint. After being manipulated and influenced so many times, being reshaped again is probably unbereable for her. And there could be a worse addiction to live with (probably?). But, yeah, she really worked to efficiently XD "I only prepared for the worst case but it isn't what it looks like!!! I swear!!!" XD Hopefully they will be able to talk about it later when they calm down. It's very mindful of her to let them time to grow away from her. I approve!!! ^^

      - "So.... I believe we need to have a long conversation about a great many topics." No kidding.... It was nice bringing closure to this case and finally talk to her. She was more outgoing that I though ^^ I mean, I knew she was nice, but I assumed that her work/inprisonment would have left her more gloomy/sad/calm. Instead she have an easy laugh. It's a nice change of pace compared to the last recruits XD And about her early life, I apply the same criterias I always have about AIs : If you can laugh and cry with us, you're as human as I am. Just don't kill us all please, and we're cool.

      Delete
    3. -Her acts of 'nudging' reminded me deeply of Omniscient Reader Viewpoint and 999 series. The feeling when you want to help and save the characters, to distort their fate and bring an happy ending.... I spent days remaking stories in my head to save them, although it was in vain. However I believe in one citation from one of my books : "The legends that are being told comes from other worlds and realms and have really happened. We are only here to recount them. As long as one person know them, their worlds continue to exist, and we can shape them. The stories grow inside our hearts, until they buds, blooms and become reality. It is the magic and beauty of being a narrator."

      - Aaaaahhh yes, these moments when we never know if something really have an influence on us, or if it's just a placebo effect. I always have doubts if it works when I have hypnosis sessions, am I the only one?

      -Yeeeaaahhh, SHE have a good heart and intentions, but her actions are putting the world in peril. When you begin to mess with time, it never ends well... She reminds me of Nox (Wakfu). He killed countless people for 2 centuries to be able to go back in time and save his loved ones. He did it thinking that his actions would have no consequences since by going in time none of it would have happened (classic time paradox here but anyways). The moment when he achieved his goal and burned 2 centuries of energy to go back 20 mns and he realized that he will never be able to see them again, that he killed countless peoples for Nothing and that he have become a monster.... The worst is that he have a good heart, but he just went mad with the pain of his loss. I still got the chills and tears in the eyes even years later. What can I do, I'm a romantic XD

      -I agree with her evaluation of Sarai. If she had commanded her to do evil, Sarai would have enough b*lls to slap her face in XD It's a bit of a shame she couldn't do that, it would have been great to see Hahahahahahaha But yeah, she's too strong willed to be influenced and that's her strength. Or is it related to the quantum entanglement in our brains? How does quantum mechanics works in that world by the way?

      - "Profanities stains the mind but I've been waiting for you to call me a c*nt" Hahahahaha "Weary understanding is so hot" LOL XD It's always so fun to see them mock themselves ^^

      -"This world would be the creation of a mad deity". Well, I know the name of this mad goddess!!! She's named Sierra Lee!!!! XXXDDD You literally asked for it LOL Hahahaha

      That's all I can remember. Have a good day!!!

      Will you add more Simon recovery points later ?

      - Hahahahahahaha that experience point XD He totally deserve it, and without killing rats too !!! LOL Hahahaha

      - That healing scene was so nice ^^ "It all felt so much more wholesome than I imagined". Well in my case it didn't fall far off of my expectations XD Simon is ALWAYS wholesome !!! The wings part was nice ^^ I think a scene between her and Altina would be nice. As ex-addict, they have much in common ^^

    6. A significant number of recovery points will be added in future updates, but the requirement will also increase. I kept it artificially low this time so more people could see the new content. But your Palina-saving run will be able to get enough soon.

  19. I can't help but wonder about the last two Other harem slots. Zelica will obviously be one of them, but I have no idea who the last one would be. I seriously doubt it's the Mother.
    More importantly, I guess I misread Hester. She doesn't want to be YHVH, she just wants to create one. Now that I think about it, character-wise she's kinda like a dark mirror of Sarai/Carina huh?

  22. Hi. I just stumbled upon the game a couple days ago, and have I really admire what you have done. Seriously, thank you for making such an awesome game. Haven't been able to put it down

    Just now though, it seems I've hit a dead end. I'm at the bloody spire with only two orcs and it's basically impossible to complete more than 2 fights of the gauntlet and I get defeated and kicked to the surface. The wiki and the game seem to indicate it isn't necessary to win the 5 fights, just a bonus of score, but immediately after orcent says his lines the game puts me game over screen. Am I boned (he), or is there any way I can keep advancing?

    1. Hello! I'm glad you've enjoyed the game, but you've caught me at a bad time (release day for my newest title).

      What this sounds like to me is a feature of the engine: if you're given control of a party with only knocked out members, it will instantly game over you. Since this can't be change, I avoid this by healing the party in every case where they regain control after a defeat. Your specific combination must have been missed.

      I don't have time to figure this one out at the moment. Please go chat with the people on the forum: they can likely help your save continue in the short term, and also identify the exact event that needs a heal so this doesn't happen to anyone in the future.

      Delete
    2. Will do. Thanks for replying. Good luck with the release!

  23. Not sure if this counts as a "bug" or not but after you've smelted your shining stuff down with Robin at Ivala's pillar, she has no dialogue when you talk to her and her sprite acts weirdly when you try to interact with her since it's not normal to have a person that doesn't have repeating dialogue for interactions.

    Also minor feedback but I kinda feel like the Biyue Wingjob scene should be unavailable after IWA since that scene really stands out when Simon and Ivala mention "Scenerios that end up leading to sex that really shouldn't". It would be cool to incorporate that.

    1. Robin: The problem is that I changed Robin so she will stay and convert future shining equipment, but missed a dialogue line for a certain conditional. Harmless now, will be fixed next build.

      Biyue: Dang it, I actually intended to lock that off, but it got lost in the huge list of things that needed to be updated. Appreciate you bringing it up!

  24. I've been lurking the blog and this game for over four years now, and I nearly can't believe that things are actually coming to a close in the near future. It feels... bittersweet, to see the end of a journey I've been a fan of for so long, while also knowing that after it's done, it's done, and there will be no continuation or another game or book I'll see these characters in again.

    On this note, I wanna ask about the future. Your writing is absolutely fantastic and I've thoroughly enjoyed everything you've put out, but TLS has been such an epic adventure that it still stands above the rest. But, it's been close to a decade since it began development, and that's a good chunk of time in the limited snapshot of existence that is our brief lives. Do you believe you have another TLS in you, or is this your, dare I say, longest running project, and you'll commit to smaller stories in scope after you've completed it and are satisfied with the end product?

    Not that I'll ever stop following your stuff, epic like TLS or otherwise. Simply the curiosity of an avid reader and somewhat invisible fan of yours. Keep up the amazing work, Sierra!

I've always said TLS will have a definitive ending, and it will, but you don't have to say goodbye entirely. There will be some short stories featuring the characters after the game, as well as potentially more comics.

      TLS has certainly been a large endeavor. I love truly long stories, so you can expect some other sagas from me, but TLS is likely to be the largest in certain ways. I've done the best I can, but I think thirty harem members is simply too many characters to spread character development over an entire story - even if I made a game longer than TLS, I'd probably try to focus the characterization more.

      As for what's next, my abstract plan falls into three stages:

      1) Final polishing and short stories. I'll probably do a replay of the entire game, building a developer commentary along the way as I polish more details.

      2) Breather period. I have several projects in mind that I've really wanted to do but held off on to keep more of my schedule focused on TLS. These would be shorter, but hopefully satisfying and creatively rejuvenating.

      3) The true next phase. Once I've finished off some of those other games, I hope I'll have fully planned my next major project.

      Thanks for the kind words, and for playing my games!

  25. Hello,
    This post is to announce the creation of a replacement forum for Hentai High School+, and Brothel King: https://henthighschool.net/index.php

    The Last Sovereign & other Sierra Lee games releases were often announced on the old forum, and we created a space for that on the new forum: https://henthighschool.net/other-games/
