What is the poly options?
You can be in a relationship with Alvis and Verity.
Is verity a girl?
Yes
So I’ve attempted 3 playthroughs and never finished the first 2 because I always get caught up with the demon conflict and how the game seems determined to force me down the path of demon loving.
I confess that I don’t understand the point it seems to be trying to make. Demons conquer minds and kill people. It tries to say “no but they’re scared” okay well Merideth regularly mind controls people just to get whatever she wants with no compunction about invading a sovereign being’s mind. It says that people lived in harmony with demons, but thats impossible with any creature that could seize your mind whenever it feels like it or kill you with the merest flick of it’s wrist. The part where the MC muses that one of their ancestors “loved” a demon always weirds me out, because they never think of the fact that demons could just mind control rape people when they feel like it and then mind control anyone that raises any objections.
“But they don’t always kill people” yeah neither do bears but we don’t invite them into our homes. We live separately from creatures that could kill us at any moment.
And when Merideth says that they love humans, while regularly mind controlling and attempting to get humans killed just to save rampaging demons rings incredibly hollow to me.
Even if demons aren’t wholly malevolent, they’re still way to dangerous and too incredibly destructive to be allowed to live amongst humans
At best, humanity is merely a lesser species to them.
At worst, they are chattel.
All depending on the daily whims of the demons
But somehow the game goes out of it’s way to paint me as some sort of evil bad guy for wanting to keep them away from humanity.

I give up my mind is zoned out I can’t really argue on the conversation but I can still see some small problems of sealing the demons you are actually sealing some of the demons that are innocent maybe not all demons are good like Verity’s ancestor or cafadel but consider Meridith she have never manipulated the humans in that village so there is still some good in most of them and you can always just become a demon Hunter if you are looking to kill rogue demons

My friend she straight up admits to mind controlling people when you ask her, since as a demon she cannot lie.
Oh she says she doesn’t do it all the time but she still does it to get what she wants.
And look, I understand her goal, since I share the exact same goal in the game except in opposition to her: helping my people at any cost. She would gladly sacrifice thousands of humans at the hands of rampaging demons to protect the ability of her people to do what they want. But the thing is, they have their own world. She only wants to open the portal because demons like it in the human realm. They’re not being tortured or oppressed, their world isn’t ending, nothing bad. They only want the portal open so they can have fun, they also like to rape humans, since you can never know if a relationship with a mind controlling shape-shifter is anything consensual.
I’m fact you cant trust that ANYTHING a demon sympathizer says or does isn’t the result of mind control, since demons do it as easy as breathing.
And at the end, I did exactly what she would’ve done the opposite direction: I attacked her infiltrator, I swept the demons back into their realm, I let min kill themself in their foolish quest to endanger humanity, I slammed the portal shut forever, and I killed Meredith when she decided to square up with me.
I also like when you kill the demon at the wedding and she tells you the big spoiler like look lady I’ve killed every demon I’ve encountered up to this point and explicitly stated both my mission to destroy demons and my hatred of them. Why would you ever think that wouldn’t do anything but make me hate demons even more?
She’s like “you’re nothing like a demon” YES, THANK YOU, YOU ARE RIGHT. HOW AM I THE BAD GUY FOR KILLING A RAMPAGING MONSTER THAT WOULD’VE KILLED EVERYONE IN THAT ROOM JUST BY WALKING THROUGH IT.

This is a warning to avoid implying that there is any form of rape when there is none. Exaggerating for effect or implying it falsely is wrong and can cause people to form false impressions of a game. Please keep all potential criticism or comments rooted in facts and not stray into conjecture that is framed as a fact.

Do any of you guys know how to get The Hero Dies achievement ? It’s my last one and I can’t seem to be able to get it
Basically, you have to stick to one motive; either wanting to release the demons or not release the demons and then choose the opposite when you’re inside the gate, pick one of the choices after that that doesn’t seem to fit you, and then choose to sacrifice yourself to open/close the gate. Do you know how to get that wedding achievement; the one that’s worth 20 points. I know how to get all of the others, and I’ve even gotten that one, I just don’t remember how I did it and it’s bothering me

Does the Author has any plan to write another story? I just replayed it, and it’s so bittersweet at the end, I love it, and I love Meredith

This is the only game I have decided to never play again after my first playthrough, because everything fell so perfectly into place and turned out just as I had hoped. There’s just no way another run could possibly have better results or be more enjoyable to me.

Thank You! turns out I’ve been living on a cave since she’s been writing a new one for awhile

Hey, at the start of Stars Arisen, your character has also been living in a cave for a while, so at least you’ll have had practice!
(I am totally joking, there’s no reason you should be expected to know what I’m working on 
)

I would say the multiple endings are worth to replay, there are few endings that suit me well with Meredith by my side

I just discovered something in an old notebook that seems important to share here. I have no idea when or why I did this, because I don’t normally draw, I don’t think I submitted these as any part of cover design ideas, and I honestly have no memory of this at all, but I seem to have made these sketches at some point in Heroes of Myth’s development process.
I think this is from the original fake quest, with an illusory demon coming out of the portal, what I’m guessing is the PC conjuring that illusion on the left, then Alvis doing…something, Letha with her sword, and Verity standing on the right.
This is…the same thing, but with some people facing in other directions? Also Letha’s sword is on fire now.
This is…a really big demon, and a person, and some…buildings? Or maybe this is during the wedding and those are collapsing pillars, or something. I have no idea what’s falling and/or floating off of the one on the right.
I think this is Letha pretending to kill Verity on the original quest, and the PC has illusioned Verity to look more like a demon? That’s the only reason I can come up with for why her cloak is doing…that.
This is…a demon, and the original quest gang below it, and also Verity is…either being kidnapped by the demon, or making it look like she’s summoning it, or otherwise is attached to it for some reason?
This is another portal scene, except this time Verity’s cloak is doing the thing again.
I have no idea at what point in the process I drew these, and you now have all the context about them that I do. To be honest, I’m sharing them mostly because I love the little Alvises.
look at him go
