Sweet, sexy, crazy Harper...
🕑 Added 2024-03-27 11:05:18 +0000 UTCIn Episode 12, Harper is the first girl to receive an ending (not counting Clara's experiment). She is sweet, she is sexy and she is a bit crazy but in a good way. She has a deep and rich character, I think that out of all the girls in Eroica she is the most unique one with her "perfect imperfections". She has a pretty decent amount of content in the game, obviously she cannot compete with Riley, Lilly or Heather because she's a side story girl but I think she has enough.
I have been struggling for the past months with how to do these endings, how to improve them and how to change them from the previous games and there's no simple answer, there's no magic trick to it. One way is to give all the girls "special animation scenes" like the one Clara has so that's what's going to happen. Another thing that I want to do, hopefully in Episode 12 is make an "Unlocked Endings" menu where you can revisit these special scenes and see the ending whenever you want to. This menu would also allow you to see the endings that you missed but they wouldn't be accessible unless you actually got those endings, a good way to figure out if you missed something. (This depends on the time I have if it comes in Episode 12 or in a later one)
Since the game has a "day to day" timelapse, except for that one week in jail, it's really hard to come up with a good ending without using the dreaded "5 months later..." or "7 months later...". I personally do not like games or TV shows that just skip time for no good reason, except when they show the ending and so I'm using that technique myself as well. With a "day to day" game it's next to impossible to come up with a pregnancy ending, a wedding ending and so on without using a "X months later...". I know some people like it, some people might be neutral towards it and some people might not like it but I think it's a good way to go in a game with so many characters that can have endings. I always said and I'll keep saying it, it's the journey that matters more than the destination.
With that said, I wish you a great day and I'll be back with an ETA post in just a few days.
