Re: Succubus Rhapsodia
So. Current trial seems to be version 3.22 - don't know what's changed yet but at least the dungeon of the v2.03 boss seems to have some new enemies. Gonna try it out a bit further.
While I doubt it's all that's been changed, a few things I noticed:
-Every party member now has the ability to ウェイト/Wait, allowing you to avoid taking offensive actions if you don't want to (Also does a slight EP heal, and doesn't cost VP like ブレス/breath, though it's naturally a lower heal).
-Talking system got a pretty big workover. Most talks can increase mood simply by using the command, and may allow for an extra change depending on what you do after. Seems like the 2nd part is always something you can resist, regardless of what it may be... and there's a decent variety of possibilities there (clothes being taken off, requests that result in EP or VP damage to the male PC [which in the case of EP seems to be lower in one attack that a normal attack], requests to touch the talk-target or watch her touch herself [both result in some EP damage to her, but may inflict negative status on your guy, particularly if you continue non-resistance]). In addition, able to talk to a girl while having sex, though this seems to always result in her doing (resistable) EP attacks; still, nonresistance can help increase the mood if you're looking to do that (and higher mood does seem to affect the chance that you can recruit in the immediate afterbattle)... and in any case of the EP dmg talks, simply allowing one attack seems good enough to avoid causing offense (and thus dropping mood).
-Some new moves. In particular noticed noticed キャスト/Cast with エンブレイス/Embrace as a learnable skill via using 契約の珠/Contract Gem(? - but just keep party members around and they will get these over time) at the teleport hub area. There's another restraining move which I'm pretty sure is a new addition as well for some types of friends/foes (エキサイトビュー/Excite View, looks to be basically a faceride move).
-Speaking of 契約の珠, now can get level ups using them (seems to be 50*current level to do it this way). Only way I noticed so far to increase 契約の珠 so far is wandering around in areas with enemies around, and it's kinda slow, so wouldn't recommend using them for this presently... but maybe in the full game...
-Rank Up (only available on some types, and was already around earlier) now asks if you're sure you want to go ahead with it and also shows the end result. I know this is available for Lesser Succubi (change into Succubi) and Imps (change into Devils)... haven't tried (gotten enough levels) with Puchi Witch but they can probably also do so (into Witches).
-Werewolves, though I'm pretty sure you need to finish the main part of the trial for them to appear at all. Check near the gather point available close to the 2nd teleport crystal for them when you're done with the trial's boss.
-Also I seem to recall in previous versions you were guaranteed to go to 0VP you if you lost all EP in insert status. Doesn't seem to be the case now, though you *will* lose a lot (still quite possibly hitting 0VP anyway - but it is definitely possible to survive giving someone a creampie now). Don't know of any items that heal VP, though... so don't expect to be able to do it twice in a single battle.
I doubt that's a comprehensive changelist, but should cover most of the stuff, I think...
Where do I go?
