Bonds Defiled

How do I save in the game?

To access the save menu, switch the window to full screen mode as it will appear at the bottom of the screen.

Is it a good idea to increase stats by multiples of 0.1?

The numbers are kept in increments of 0.1 for precision, but they could be multiplied by ten for cleaner values without changing gameplay mechanics.

How many specializations will each character have?

Each character will have 2–3 specializations to balance the game's complexity and maintainability as a solo developer. Visual changes will reflect increasing corruption through clothing and other external traits.

Will there be more main characters added soon?

No new main characters are planned until the current cast's corruption progresses sufficiently. However, additional scenes with non-main characters may be included.

Can the MC be dominant with the tomboy girl?

Yes, after initial submissive dynamics, the MC can become dominant in certain scenes as the story progresses.

How does corruption affect gameplay balance?

Full corruption makes resisting temptation nearly impossible and favors seduction. Full blessing increases resistance to temptation. A system will allow removal of debuffs or blessings later in the game for better balance.

Will Serin have pubic hair?

Yes, this is being addressed in future updates.

Why does the character use Rylan's name instead of the entered name?

What is the Soulforge System?

The Soulforge System allows rerolling or cleansing soul corruption to balance gameplay.

Is it possible to avoid gay content in the game?

Yes, it's fully avoidable. Early on, the game provides a warning if a scene might lead to gay content. As long as you avoid those choices and keep your 'gay value' at 0, you won't even be prompted with those scenes later.

Why is there sound in the game when I have all sounds set to zero?

One of the greatest peeves with games are config and sound controls that don’t work. Setting all sounds to zero AND muting still results in sound playing within the game.

Is futa content optional in the game?

Yes, all futa content is optional. Some solo girl-on-girl scenes are planned and skipping them means fewer scenes overall. DP with the MC is also planned but most main girls remain virgins initially.

What issues have been found on Linux systems?

There was a case sensitivity issue on Linux where paths were incorrectly converted to lowercase, leading to broken emojis and spaces replaced by '?'. This has since been fixed in version 0.3.

Why do some players add tags at the genre section instead of using game tags?

Some games work around F95 tag rules by adding future content tags to the 'genre' section in the description, as these are not present in the game's tags.

Why do images not load on Android Chrome?

Images may not load due to case sensitivity issues or cache problems. This issue should be resolved with version 0.33.

What is the Soulforge System and how does it work?

In the soul forge, you can change the weighted chance of different fetishes appearing on random stat increases to tailor your characters towards certain things.

Relationship and Romance

• Consider the first choice carefully as it determines whether you're locked into or out of specific NTR routes.
• Romance paths can be influenced by your choices, allowing for multiple endings including an NTS Harem ending where all characters are involved romantically.
• If you choose to avoid NTR entirely with a character like Liora, you may still unlock new mechanics and story beats that affect the relationship dynamics.

Game Mechanics

• In the soul forge, you can adjust the weighted chance of different fetishes appearing on random stat increases to tailor your characters towards specific traits.
• Use a second hotkey for advancing pages in the bookstore or other sections without multiple options to speed up replaying certain parts.

Character Development

• The MC can gradually grow into a more dominant role, but this development is gradual and not immediate.
• Serin can be permanently transformed into a futa if you choose that path, while Liora will have temporary futa scenes.

Gameplay Issues

• If entering the soul forge from inside another menu, you might get trapped in a loop. Use the return button carefully to avoid this issue.
• Ensure that you download the correct version of the game to prevent issues with resetting stats and gold.
