Finished Leopold (my favorite! <3) and Bastien's routes without problems, but Guillame's is really buggy. Doing the branch where he loves you and wants the crown and I've been getting a lot of errors and skipped scenes. Dialogue indicates I met with Sophia and Etrillard(sp) but I didn't actually see the scenes. I hope this will be fixed in the next version, I know it's EA. fixed now
Hello and thank you for the feedback. Do you think you could give a more detailed list of where bugs are occurring, please - either here or sent to support@blackcross-taylor.com - it can very very hard to find specific bugs without the reports owing to the number of variables defined as you play the route. I would be grateful for any help you can provide.
UPDATE: I have found and fixed a coding issue that was added by the Loveless Route (it is part of Guillaume's route and unfortunately seemed to cause some trouble with the existing code), so thank you for bring that to my attention. If you wish to redownload the game and see if this is now working for you, the version you are looking for is 2.7.
However, I have been unable to replicate the issue with the Sofia and Etrillard scenes being mentioned. This might be because fixing the code issue has fixed that as well, or it might be that I am not making the specific combination of in-game choices that lead to the issue. Please could I ask you to send me details of the line/lines where they are mentioned erroneously and I will try to investigate further.
That was really fast, thanks! I will download the new version. I don't have/remember details, unfortunately, but I assume if you couldn't replicate it, it's probably fixed. If I get anymore errors I'll let you know!
Wow. I finally read through everything and I can definitely say that this was a very enjoyable update. And so substantial too! I really enjoyed the two new love interests... It was very sweet getting to know Mathys, and speaking of..

One of the best parts was seeing Mama Parisi finally getting all choked up with pride over her daughter's achievement: staging a successful military coup! That was downright hilarious.
Ah, thank you for letting me know you enjoyed the route - particularly Mathys's path. And you managed to impress Mother - you are truly worthy of the crown! ^_^
Hi, I'm playing the linux version on steam deck right now, but for some reason I can't select the "No one" route, the way Charlotte and Frederique's routes can't be selected. All the other routes work fine. Has the linux version been updated yet?
If you are looking for the loveless route, you will find it under Guillaume's route.
After clicking on his portrait, at the prompt 'who did King Auguste want to become queen?' click on 'Me'. And then choose the last option, "No, I behaved as instructed and King Auguste chose me".
This will get you onto the Loveless route. I hope this helps ^_^
I just end my playthough with the “loveless” route ( at least, one of them ).
I really find it very interesting to do. The MC is still a strong MC like in other routes, this is still the same kind of “gameplay” (strong story/lore, well done characters, tracking hints in story to find the “right” choice, MC love story ) and somehow it’s also a different “atmosphere” from other routes.
And there is really different way to go to a “successfull” end so, when playing, you feel like your choice matters in MC life.
Note that I do not think less of the other routes ( even if I may have some preferences ) and I really find good the effort done to have different kind of approach/issues in each of them.
Thanks and congratulation for the great work you have done !
Thank you for your kind feedback. I am happy to hear you enjoyed the loveless route.
All the game paths are fundamentally the same, but I do try to make them feel different each time, so I am glad that you feel I have succeeded there. ^_^
I have to say, that this loveless route exceeded all my expectations! I talk about the The shared throne ending. This was even better than Leo's route! :D I can only praise your storytelling, it is so awesome :D I got to the Elopement and the Tyrant queen end too, these were somehow less burdened than the other characters' stories outside of the Loveless route and i like them too :)
Thank you for writing these cunning, witty and heartwarming stories :)
Also, I was rereading the Leopold POV extra for Rose, and omg, I remembered that Leopold got struck on the cheek too (though in a more benign situation as compared to Iolanthe in Thorns) and they also had a whole scene regarding first names in both games!!!
Hehehe it's been a while since I played Rose, so I think I'll get back to that. Your writing is such a delight to read. Thank you very much for this game!

Thank you, I really do appreciate all the bug reports.
Even with the testing that I and the playtesters do, we always have a few bugs that slip through, so I am very grateful when players report them ^_^
Thank you for sharing your story. I hope that, when the time comes, Charlotte’s route will be a fitting finale to your fond reminiscences.
Many thanks for playing ^_^

Hello and thank you!
I'm glad you enjoyed the route - especially Leo's romance.
"(I tend to avoid sad ends :D)" - wisely done ^_^
Many thanks for playing
