If I'm honest, I think it's an okay idea, I normally have all my settings set to 100% women anyway and when using service I only put myself in there. If I do any of the girls, I make it girl on girl only. Because the idea of sharing my girls with any other man disgusts me. Lmao. I'm greedy that way. 

Abandoned?

Hey strive, I'm not sure IF I should report this, because it seems far to beneficial to us players, but, as the developer, I feel it's only right to let you know. The single use ability "Universal aptitude" which I think is exclusive to humans to copy a racial specific class can be used repeatedly if clicking on the portrait. It's not negatively impacting anything, but as the flavour text says it's a single use social skill and I am able to use it repeatedly, I figured I'd let you know. Whether you update to remove it or leave it as a feature and just adjust the flavour text is entirely up to you. 

And sorry to all those in advance who may get upset at me for reporting this. 

Probably a bit of a silly question, but, how do I exceed level 20? Or is 20 the cap? I mainly ask as some areas seem they're designed for specifically higher levels. Is it locked behind story progression or is level 20 the hard-cap for all characters and you're meant to use items/weapons/armour/trinkets to help push through the higher difficulty levels? 

I really need someone to tell me the requirements to fish lobster. I've been fishing in the boat for ages and I need 3 lobster for the turtle, my final sea creature. Also need answers to the last two recruitable characters for the barracks, I already have goblin and phoenix, just two ??? left. 

Turns out, I didn't even need to speak to Ronda? I just went back to Ozryn, went back in the forest to the crystal and it progressed on its own? O.o I'm not complaining since it means progression, but still kinda confusing how that worked. 

Followup to the last comment I just made about Ronda missing. 

So, apparently,  I am unable to find Ronda after defeating the monsters, clicking the crystal and returning to Ozryn. Ronda has disappeared and she's not in the leaders home. 

Patreon code for help from serephina at the start?

Yo, Ryen, Just wondering, who's the newest marriable side-character? I only ask because in the side character marriage screen I'm seeing 19 potential character silhouettes, however, when going through the cg scenes, I'm only seeing 18. I know one of the remaining ones is Naevy, however I cannot figure out the final one. Could you help me out here? Or is it a placeholder for someone later on, like Emelia or Lace? 

Understandable, I only ask because the first one was available on some 3rd party web browsing sites for free access, so I didn't know if season 2 was gonna follow the same pattern. I'd assume whoever put it up there paid, then allowed access for anyone to play. Full disclosure, I never paid for the first one and played it for free via aforementioned 3rd party web browser site. I'm not sure how international payments would work nowadays when it comes to adult content given the whole lockdown on anything even remotely pornographic due to the backlash from the Epstein files reveals recently (I'm British and most adult content sites from porn videos to game sites are going into overdrive to have some form of verification access now unless I use a vpn, but can't play my games on them because they're in renpy browser format). I'm even getting asked to verify my own xbox account, which I've had since 09. So you can understand my reasoning for asking. I just hope it doesn't come off as stingy. I was introduced to this game by the site I played it on, so I had to ask. 

Will you eventually make this optionally free like the prequel or will we be forced to pay to play? I'd just like clarification before considering it. Because I loved the prequel. 

Hey, I'm just curious, does anybody have a comprehensive list of recipes for this game? Marian  mentioned when collecting  mushrooms that mixing it with milk would help make a stew and with radishes would make a salad, however, when I try to do so, it says it made a potential fertilizer (Which I still cannot use, guessing I'll need further progress) So I'm wondering if anybody could help by making a list of the recipes they've unlocked to help others who may need it assuming they've reached the pre-requisites on story completion

Ah, right. the tedious (Endorse/protect, let the rest) and so on. Just a personal thing, but I gotta admit I'm not a fan of them. They interrupt my exp skip spam, but while I find them tedious, I have to admit the free bonuses they provide do alleviate any irritation I may have had initially when they were first introduced. So silver lining and all that. 

This, Specifically. The part I refer to is the surprise battle feature. Which I believe was the battles on the road from the first one. I assume in this one it refers specifically to the tribal elf ambush in the rest spot event. 

True, I only brought it up because I saw a post on your patreon talking about the arena and random road encounters back in march. But I think I misinterpreted it. I think it may refer to battles such as the tribal elf ambushes and the like, am I correct in assuming that? 

I see, I appreciate the confirmation. Looking forward to the next few updates. Hoping to see the reintegration of powers road battle system, if that ever returns. Would give a reason for rope usage and prisoners for the torture room. xD But that may just be a pipe dream. Who knows. 

The tower of dreams and infinite tower are separate places? I thought they were the same. How does one reach the infinite tower? Or are you saying they have a chance to appear there in chests from crypt generated areas? 

Title says it all. But to expand, what uses does dragonic scales have that you can get from farm resource production? I can't seem to find a use for them, and everything is upgraded to the absolute max. Are they just sellable loot? 

So I was just curious, but, do you perhaps have any future plans on creating a dungeon type for higher quality resources like dragon bone with more frequency? If not, adjusting the loot table for some dragon-esque type creatures could be simpler.  I know it's possible to obtain them in crypts but I was wondering if you'd be willing to add a dragon type enemy strictly within the tower of dreams to circumvent the tediousness of repeatedly having to buy/find crypt dungeon scrolls, go there, complete it, delete it, repeat it. Or even add dragon bones to the loot drop table of the fire lizards from the fire depths dungeon. Since they're for all intents and purposes salamanders. Which could technically be considered akin to dragons. 

Hey Strive, so I noticed this whilst playing this morning, about 10 hours ago or so, but it appears alongside heleviels new scene, the Kuro scene after you get her the book won't unlock after viewing it, the one in which you claim her virginity.  I just figured I'd point it out in-case others are yet to notice it. Also posted a screenshot of her being married to avoid anyone mistakenly thinking I've not done her story yet. 

Ah, right. I see. A previously used asset that's been left in, then. Okie doke. Was entirely perplexed. Guess that's one to put on the "Ignore it, it's unachievable" list. 

Can somebody please inform me of the requirements for this scene? I've done all but marry her and be a female character (Which I plan to do at another juncture via sex change potions solely for event scene) so am I missing something? Or can you still recruit her after choosing Lira or something? Am I correct in making the assumption you can recruit her if you're a female character and then choose Heleviel to remain as high priestess? Or is that mere speculation on my part? 

Hey Strive, I was playing and just noticed this. Is this just a me instance or has this text been miswritten in coding? Can Anybody else confirm this for me on their end with a screenshot? 

After a bit of checking, I've discovered Anastasia's Bracelet seems to mimic the last hovered over item. As to whether it carries those stats over, I doubt it, but it's certainly confusing since we know not what it actually does, if anything. Does it have its own bonuses it provides or is the bracelet merely cosmetic? 

Appreciate the confirmation. I'm sure you're going to do this anyway, but try to implement what you want when you want, and if you need to take a break from it, to focus on life events or your own mental health, do so. Those of us who like the game will play it regardless and will wait patiently. So make sure you prioritise yourself first and foremost. Thanks for all the work you do, Strive. Especially replying to peoples questions and queries. Some devs don't do that. So it's appreciated. 

Understandable, But the thing is, I don't use discord on my laptop, unfortunately. I use it primarily for porn games so I try to keep any personal information off here that won't detrimentally impact my identity security. So it's honestly my only means of communication with game devs xD And that's fine. As I said, it was more of a musing than anything. Sidenote, when I chose lira over Heleviel, there was no option to chat with her, even though she's considered a unique character. Are there any plans to expand on her in the future other than "Pick her for one scene and that's it" or is choosing her and obtaining that scene the ultimate conclusion? 

Hey strive, I was just wondering, what are your thoughts on creating and adding a unique female dwarf somewhere in chapter three? I mainly ask because we have one, sometimes two or three characters of some races (In the elves case, Aire, Lira and Heleviel) But I think it'd be awesome to add a unique dwarf to accommodate the unlocking of mithril and such. That way we don't have go actively searching for a dwarf with crit chance in the mountains. I know you've got a lot on your plate what with the updates of this and likely various other projects/life goals, so it's more of a musing than anything. But what are your thoughts? 

I assuredly had progressed, the autosave was just after she was made a waitress, I completed it and had the trigger for the next quest involving ginny and the church, then chose to reload the auto save just after her recent employment, but it was stuck on a perpetual "Wait a few days" for her quest on her working as a waitress. I started a new game and plan to save prior to the battle of choice between lira and heleviel. I'm still hoping there's a future where we can get them both. For example, if you let heleviel remain as high priestess, you could come back a few days later under the pretence of a meeting between "Dignitaries" and then kidnap her, forcing her into servitude. And just have a generic background no-name priestess take over the position. That way, you get both lira and heleviel, also both the sword and tiara from both sides. 

So, I did Heleviel's waitress quest, but wanted to chose the option to kiss her after already choosing the take her roughly, so I reloaded the save file, but for some reason, no matter how many weeks I skip, she's not triggering her scene. Am I doing something wrong or have I messed up by reloading? 

Hey Strive, not sure if this is an only me issue, but I've noticed the Zephyra Miko outfit sprite won't activate and merely resets it to a default sprite and won't show the image for it after unlocking. Could you or anybody else confirm if this is a me issue or if it's a coding error? 

Aight, so, imma be entirely honest here. I'm genuinely mad about the new cali scene you implemented. The William scene. Sure, it's optional, but does that ntr scene really need to be implemented? Please, don't go that route, my dude. We had all these years without any ntr related content, can you please remove that scene from the game? It doesn't belong here. Especially when we don't even get the opportunity to be the ones to take her virginity unless you strictly pay. I get that it's a scene implemented solely for the purpose of context for the choice made, and that's fine, but I'd personally prefer it  not be there. Watching it didn't even unlock it on the replay, and then I made the dumbass decision to reset all scenes thinking it might fix it. Just wanted it for it for completion sake. But "Lending cali to the other party for the sword" won't unlock no matter what I did. And frankly, I'm glad it didn't. Seeing it thrice was more than enough to scar me. It gave me feelings similar to koihime scene from rance conquest. And I will never get over how angry that scene made me because of how unexpected it was. Anyway, my point is, if you could remove that scene, great, if not, just please don't add anymore. I don't wanna see our unique girls getting fucked by other people. Especially when there's no need for image based content. Just not knowing what happened was much better for my mental health. 

Disregard previous comment. It seems full screen makes it flash non-stop

Question, is anybody else getting epilepsy causing seizures upon opening the game or is it just me? Because upon loading the game, I'm getting constant nonstop flashing. 

Gotta ask, but, when's the next update? It's been quite a long time since 22.3 dropped. Also confused how other sites have that update in february yet it says here the same update was posted on july. So I'm a little confused. 

Would you mind clarifying if it's possible to avoid the destruction of the estate and save the folk from there? I'm not at that point yet, and by your description, I'm gathering there's a means of preventing their demise. I'm assuming you're referring to the abandoned estate that you lead ventire village to, correct? If so, knowing there's a chance to save them and prevent it would help me decide whether to continue or not. Because I'd like to avoid losing any of my love interests  and children to potential avoidable death if at all possible. 

No problems at all. I had the thought to myself on the most recent playthrough I started after the most recent update, and was like "It seems to take forever to save when it autosaves but if I manual save after it, it's almost instant, hmmmm, I wonder" so I altered it from 28 days to 7 and instead of a 3 minutes freeze, it only took like 2-5 seconds. So I definitely know what you were going through. And since it was so fresh in my mind I figured I'd share it if anybody else had similar issues. 

I advise going to your options and changing the autosave frequency to a week. I think by default, it's set to 28 days, which can cause longer delays the more slaves/subordinates you get and the longer you play. I noticed a massive difference when I changed it to weekly instead of monthly. If this doesn't work, then you may want to turn it off altogether and just remember to manual save every now and again. I noticed it getting majorly delayed around the 20 subordinates area or if you have someone in a different area on permanent search for recruits, it could also cause issues due to how much it's straining the game capabilities and overloading it. Hope this helps somewhat. 

Hi, Just wondering, but how do we access the Empire? There are options to walk in the lower empire but we can't actually enter as it pops up with a message saying we're "Only the mayor or Aliron" and that we're not welcome. Is that like a wip for when chapter 4 drops or is there some hidden way to access the empire territory? Appreciate the responses. 

I've gotta be honest, I'm hoping there's some way to get both Lira and Heleviel in the future. Breaking Heleviel and then corrupting Lira would be fantastic. I'm torn everytime I do this quest. Because I always choose to make Lira the new priestess and take Heleviel captive. But I'm curious on how the Lira one goes. Does it happen in the same way? Or does she come along willingly? I'll never find out honestly, because breaking Heleviel and taking her down a level feels too good. So I'm hoping we get to talk to Lira more later. and recruit her. Maybe as a means to ally against the coming darkness of the demon forces and we make a marriage alliance or something. 

So, I believe I've just come across a workaround for the recruitment being subordinates and being unable to use them as factor upgrade fuel. However, it requires you downloading the multiple marriages mod for this game. By marrying any non-unique character, it effectively nullifies the subordinate status, making them into married slaves, similar to the all children are heirs sub-mod contained within. I forget the name of the mod itself, but a poster on here can likely reply with it's name. If I can find it, I'll edit and post it.

Edit: The mod is called the SFCRevamp mod, I believe

 If you choose to install the SFC Revamp mod, made by ChrisOwens68, hold the windows button, press the r button, and type %rundata% the go to appdata, roaming, striveforpower2, mods, then drag and drop it in from the file explorer you use to run the game. This is assuming you're unfamiliar with how to run the mods. It's somewhat explained in my old post 250+ days ago titled "Polygamous Marriage?" I believe. For those who already know how to install them, I need not explain.
