Alright I have played through all content available thus far in build 20? I believe. Any way this game has a really good idea and parts that are ready seem to be really good. I'm definitely waiting for full release so I can see where this train goes. Hopefully it does not become new Forest fortress where game end in a cliff hanger and sequel is never released.
Alright the art Style is great. I left off the dragon and the snake cuz I don't fw them so much. The Game is 50% free 50% patron scenes only so u can only complete one scene with the specific Character otherwise u gotta pay up. Also they made a walk through of this game if u don't know what to do. Still the game is very good imo I just wanna switch my damn weapon and get a double handed greatsword or something.
Yeah the game is not meant to be played on phones yet, even if you technically can play the web version on modern ones. We might have an android version one day.
The art and music are phenomenal, but the combat feels obscenely unfair. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I'm just playing on normal difficulty and every single fight drags on for ages, ending in a victory only after I've had practically every part of my body maimed and am on the verge of death, and often after reloading several game overs. Preparation and Parry prevent me from attacking, so every turn spent using them just feels like I'm giving the enemy free damage, and enemies in even the early game cheerfully throws tons of debuffs on me, like the skeletons which rapidly reduce my main character's damage to 1 with 8 stacks of damage down long before I'm able to maim even one of their limbs.
I was enticed by the porn in the previews, but it's been a tedious struggle just slogging my way through the very first few areas to get to the first scene, but after half an hour of trying to defeat three skeletons at once, each of whom is stronger than either of my own two units, I honestly don't know if I'm capable of reaching a second scene. I understand wanting to make the player work for the reward, but this is ridiculous.
sometimes, when pc low spec play the game; npc movement will got freeze and unnatural. for the movement in combat, i recommended to have some optimization
and this for bit of advice for protection in game: when i bit messed up file from save file in locallow (option.json) whenever i click " e " button the game got me to unity screen. so the team might be have piece of mind if some hacker shit got ur game
Ah yes it's fine, that's our dialogue editor. People are free to use it to edit the game dialogues. We will also have a quest editor next update, which people can use too if they want.
Hi! I just started and I'm loving it so far but I have a question. Sometimes when I run out of ap or just get to 1 per party member the game doesn't let me do anything nor does it let me end turn and the enemies don't attack either. This pretty much freezes the game and makes me either reset or skip the battle. Is this a bug or am I missing something?
I do get 9 ap per turn, it's just when the ap runs out whether that be through moving or attacking (Or hits one) the game doesn't let me act and it pretty much freezes up, it doesn't progress to enemy phase and I can't end turn or do anything significant, the only actions I can do are look at the help menu, go through the main menu, and look through enemy cards. I'm beginning to think it might have to do with my copy of the game since I've also experienced a few minor bugs like text not loading sometimes, and NPC's appearing directly in the middle of sex scenes just standing there (It happened during the first scene with Terri and it was honestly pretty funny). I also had one massive glitch where I couldn't continue the Crimson Dervish quest because the merchant wouldn't give me any unique dialogue even though I had the quest, I ended up talking to one of your devs (I think his name was deck) on discord about the crimson dervish bug and he told me to send him a copy of my save files and that he would get on it.
Hey, I was wondering if we could get some more quests involving iski. Maybe an option to add her to your party? I know you guys have your hands full with the combat as it is, and the added dialogue from having a new member of the party would be a lot of work. But... I think that her character would add a lot to the game, and a rogue-ish character doesn't exist in terms of combat. You could do all sorts of awesome stuff like backstab bonuses, stealth modifiers, etc. I would definitely be willing to drop some cash on patreon if I knew this was something to look forward to.
If not, that's fine too. Love seeing you guys improve this game and still having the drive to do so for so long, been a fan for quite a while. I made an account just to post this after all. Keep it up!
Yes I agree she would be a great addition and a lot of people like her, but as you said we don't want to spread ourselves too fin, so definitely not in the near future, but there is a good chance we will do something with her eventually.
Hey there, I've got a question about the sound. I'm only getting Music, Effects, Interface and Footsteps. Sex sounds aren't implemented yet, as far as I'm concerned? But I'm still missing Voice and Ambience. Is that some kind of bug or are these too not implemented yet? Great game by the way! The worldbuilding is very creative, especially regarding all the different mixtures of races and the characters are very unique and authentic! Also all the storytelling and dialogues are extremely engaging! The only thing I'm really missing is some sound to make the sex scenes come alive a bit more. Even some cheap Hentai-Style moaning would be a tremendous upgrade haha :)
Hi, we want to add some sex related sounds and other more polished audio eventually, but it's a lower priority than what we are working on at the moment, mainly the combat. Glad you enjoy the game!
was the whispering bandits quest made private again i could have sworn in a previous version i was able to complete it and the other quests after it but in this latest version nathan tells me about the purple coated vendor who gives out the quest but i am unable to see him at all.
This quest always was patreon only. Check the walkthrough if you aren't sure which one is public: https://priceforfreedom.net/avarice/walkthrough. Nathan shouldn't speak about him actually, bad Nathan.
thats weird as i have never had the patreon version but i definately remember being sent to that village for the quest and i definately remember doing the quests that come after it such as samaras back story
I have a bug where every action I make expends all action points. Skill cost is 4 points but it expends all 9. My characters are so weak because of this it's impossible to kill anything. How do I fix this problem?
Barry, preparation, Slash, Strike, double tap. Ap cost shows 4 but it instantly ends the turn. If it is designed to work that way my attacks don't seem to do almost anything and even when I focus attacks on one thug at a time I rarely get it killed before my first character is already dead and one on one no chance. Thugs do so much more damage than pc controlled characters it's already over at that point.
Also never mind last time I played attacks did almost nothing this time both thugs dropped like flys. I'm good it seems to actually be playable this time.
Alright good to know. Two worm creatures in troglodyte cave seemed to regnerate their core armor indefinitely and were complitely immortal. Also attacks to stinger and tentacles did not cause enough damage to kill them. Not sure if my build was bad against them or if they were bugged somehow. I tried to kill them 5-7 times and every time they complitely overpowered my character. I just skipped the combat after a while.
Fights where there was two enemy factions seemed to just simply freeze. If there were troglodytes fighting undead I would be able to get my first turn. Then enemy's would make theirs and then freeze. Second turn would never come. I skipped thous battles because there was no way to get it unstuck. Quest where I was hunting some monsters with spear elf girl and we met the lobster looking creature that ally's with us. That fight did not freeze. Every battle where there is hostile AI vs Hostile AI vs player it would freeze.
Hey, no we don't plan to have deep customization of the main character, because he is not supposed to be a blank slate, and also because we don't have enough resources to adapt all the scenes and dialogues.
great game but its a damn shame how much content is locked in the gallery. overall though i'd highly recommend it the combat is unique the story is intriguing and the art is phenomenal. its also one of the few games i've seen that uses tweening right in the animations it actually comes off smooth rather then lifeless and creepy. well heres hoping we get more furry and scalie gals and smore of best kobold girl isk
I'm doing the Osh'to quest, but I can't seem to be able to get the Shackles from Kalid, there aren't any dialogue options for it. Is it a bug or am I missing something?
Wow, Just Wow..... Just played the Demo, not even to completion but still WOW..... The art is great, the music is soothing, the writing is phenomenal and naughty. The animation for the H-scenes are interesting, instead of going for just a few loops or still images and calling it a day you've added little variations as the scene progresses..... Changes in expression, shifts in pace.... It's subtle things like that that really make the scene stand out to me. I love it....
My one and only issue tho: The grey text is just a smidge bit difficult to read sometimes. I mean that might be resolved already, or it might be more readable if a actually fullscreened the game (which I did not) but it made reading the gorgeous descriptive text just a bit harder.... Honestly with that being my only gripe about the Demo, I'd say that really speaks volumes to how much I enjoyed it. I'm definitely gonna keep an eye on this.
Shame the Demo didn't show any other parts of the game but I'm certain that if you gave it even HALF the attention to detail that this Demo had then I'm certain there is nothing to worry about :)
Thank you! Yeah it's meant to be played full screen, I assume you mean the web demo? We have a free version you can download here which has a lot more content: https://priceforfreedom.net/avarice/download
You can change the color and size of the dialogue in the options by the way.
Oh so my only gripe is already fix and likely a non-issue. Perfect! I'll try that link later and will likely support this project in the near future. Excellent Stuff!
I don't know what "Investigate the green building..." should mean right now. The only option seems to be a very difficult fight with the thieves, right?
even if you translate it it will be very cool! the project will open to a much larger number of people, so I think your work will also pay off over time
So where are the save files actually located? I looked in the folder that the wiki-like thing mentioned and it's just jpeg files not actual save files.
My Game doesnt load. Ive tried to play the game but everytime I open it, it just is stuck on this one screen. SO like it asks me if I want patreon content. i say no and the title shows up and fades away. And then Im just left with the artpiece of a bunch of people in the steam pool or whatever. I can scroll around on the image but nothing happens. Im on MacOs, and Ive seen a somewhat similar error occur in some other games. And to fix that, I just went into the contents, macos, and opened upa terminal file called NWJS, or in this case, the terminal called PriceForFreedom. But the same thing happens. Any help would be appreciated.
Wait, Nvm. It works. It was just loading and took a long time. Perhaps the loading part was an error? If not, I would advise to add one in cause I was just stuck on that one piece of amazing art for like 5 minutes before I loaded in
This could be caused by your antivirus or Windows Defender blocking the files from loading. Add an exception rule for the PriceForFreedom executable. Sometimes just disabling and enabling the protection is enough.

Nah the game will have a full story, which is already loosely settled. Check our walkthrough if you aren't sure you did everything.
Thanks. That's really good.
Alright the art Style is great. I left off the dragon and the snake cuz I don't fw them so much. The Game is 50% free 50% patron scenes only so u can only complete one scene with the specific Character otherwise u gotta pay up. Also they made a walk through of this game if u don't know what to do. Still the game is very good imo I just wanna switch my damn weapon and get a double handed greatsword or something.
Thank you :)
i can't unlock the first scene of Samara
Which version are you playing?
19.2
i will update the game this weekend
Alright, let me know if it works with the build 20.
yeah i got it with the update (i forgot reply you before)
now my question is...
how i can obtain every draw?
Yeah the game is not meant to be played on phones yet, even if you technically can play the web version on modern ones. We might have an android version one day.
Thank you, and yes the combat still need a lot more polishing before being good.
is the game's story related to the Comic's or are they independant?
The game is 87 years before the comic, so there is a loose link.
I know the comic book is but is the game itself still updating?
Yes, the last update came out today! (patreon only though) https://www.patreon.com/posts/55457413
can i run this game in mobile joiplay ?
Not at the moment. We will probably have an android version later.
The art and music are phenomenal, but the combat feels obscenely unfair. Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I'm just playing on normal difficulty and every single fight drags on for ages, ending in a victory only after I've had practically every part of my body maimed and am on the verge of death, and often after reloading several game overs. Preparation and Parry prevent me from attacking, so every turn spent using them just feels like I'm giving the enemy free damage, and enemies in even the early game cheerfully throws tons of debuffs on me, like the skeletons which rapidly reduce my main character's damage to 1 with 8 stacks of damage down long before I'm able to maim even one of their limbs.
I was enticed by the porn in the previews, but it's been a tedious struggle just slogging my way through the very first few areas to get to the first scene, but after half an hour of trying to defeat three skeletons at once, each of whom is stronger than either of my own two units, I honestly don't know if I'm capable of reaching a second scene. I understand wanting to make the player work for the reward, but this is ridiculous.
Yeah the combat is still unfinished and unbalanced. You can skip it with the bottom right button if you want.
Gonna report some bug and bit of advice,
sometimes, when pc low spec play the game; npc movement will got freeze and unnatural. for the movement in combat, i recommended to have some optimization
and this for bit of advice for protection in game: when i bit messed up file from save file in locallow (option.json) whenever i click " e " button the game got me to unity screen. so the team might be have piece of mind if some hacker shit got ur game
for all that what i found right now
I am not sure what you mean by the unity screen, could you share a screenshot of it?
here
when i'm accidently click alt+e this will pop up
Ah yes it's fine, that's our dialogue editor. People are free to use it to edit the game dialogues. We will also have a quest editor next update, which people can use too if they want.
uhm, just a bit opinion..
the game is better when u limit the dialogue editor in main game, and have full version quest editor in separate..
or u can make an option to on/off quest editor, because sometimes whenever someone used quest editor the game have chance got bugged
horny boi tells you how to make your game
Hi! I just started and I'm loving it so far but I have a question.

Hey that's me. The freeze during the undead fight might be a combat bug. And yeah I will check the rest with you on discord.
Oh yeah I didn't answer the second question, it happened with the undead enemies and the mushroom enemies

Hey, if you're still looking to add VO to the scenes, maybe contact Art Witch Studios https://twitter.com/ArtWitchStudios
Their VA was some of the best I've heard in adult gaming.
was the whispering bandits quest made private again i could have sworn in a previous version i was able to complete it and the other quests after it but in this latest version nathan tells me about the purple coated vendor who gives out the quest but i am unable to see him at all.

Really enjoy the game so far but question, is there any chance for a futa main character for customization?
Hey, no we don't plan to have deep customization of the main character, because he is not supposed to be a blank slate, and also because we don't have enough resources to adapt all the scenes and dialogues.
Is there a way to reset the skill tree?
Yes, you can refund a skill learned with a right click. We might change that later, but it should work for now.
sooooo..... how long does it usually take for quests to become public? My ass is broke...
Well the game was always meant to be sold on steam or itch when it is finished, so it will never be completely free unfortunately :(
I'd be down to buy it when it's finished, but I was wondering if we'll get public releases since I'm unable to contribute monthly.
This is the main thing really. I can't contribute to a net negative of -5 monthly, so a one time purchase seems worthwhile.
I've finished Hiho's quest but I can't find Osh'to anywhere. Is it because I'm playing the Game Jolt version or is it just a bug?
You probably have an old version, download the latest one here: https://priceforfreedom.net/avarice/download
Thanks :)
I might just be stupid but how do you get into the cliffside storehouse.
never mind I tink Ive found i
great game but its a damn shame how much content is locked in the gallery. overall though i'd highly recommend it the combat is unique the story is intriguing and the art is phenomenal. its also one of the few games i've seen that uses tweening right in the animations it actually comes off smooth rather then lifeless and creepy. well heres hoping we get more furry and scalie gals and smore of best kobold girl isk
I'm doing the Osh'to quest, but I can't seem to be able to get the Shackles from Kalid, there aren't any dialogue options for it. Is it a bug or am I missing something?
It might be a bug yes, could you join our discord and ask on the bug-tracker channel? https://priceforfreedom.net/discord
I will help you there.
Thank you!
i just got on your patreon, where do i get the code/ when do i get it?
nvm i'm just stupid
You figured it out already, but for anyone else it's in the patreon post.
I wonder if this game will ever have an android port...
Yes, one day.
Cool.
Wow nice, looking forward.
I have tried multiple times to try and download the game but can't. The only file I get is the asset bundles.
What is the size of the zip after you download it?
NVM I got the file. It was a size issue.
Digging most of it, aside from the whole 'play as a broken rape victim' angle, bit depressing that.
Is there a combat tutorial or explainer somewhere that I missed, or may have skipped? I feel like I'm attacking bandits with a pool noodle
It's in our plans but not yet, the combat system being a work in progress still, and subject to changes.
Wow, Just Wow..... Just played the Demo, not even to completion but still WOW..... The art is great, the music is soothing, the writing is phenomenal and naughty. The animation for the H-scenes are interesting, instead of going for just a few loops or still images and calling it a day you've added little variations as the scene progresses.....

How do you skip combat?
There is a skip combat button at the bottom right.
Yes, I just figured out I had to enable it, so sorry for wasting your time!
No problem, have fun.
how do you take your save file from one build to the other build because I am currently on build 18
The saves files are in a special folder that is shared between all versions, so you don't need to do anything.
sweet thanks
question: is this game related to the price of freedom comics?
Yes but in minor ways. The game happens 87 years before the comic, so no one is alive yet besides you know who.
hey i have problem i can't save and some times game can't load fights
Visit our discord, it will be easier to help you there: https://priceforfreedom.net/discord
"In the light of the woom" is a typo I found with bedding Katie
Whank you, fixed!
I don't know what "Investigate the green building..." should mean right now. The only option seems to be a very difficult fight with the thieves, right?
Check the walkthrough if you are stuck: https://priceforfreedom.net/avarice/walkthrough
If you mean the first Hiho quest, you need to avoid that fight in the dialogue.
Will there be Russian and other languages? :D
Maybe, but we have a lot of text so it will be a huge challenge to translate.
even if you translate it it will be very cool! the project will open to a much larger number of people, so I think your work will also pay off over time
We will do our best.
will you release on android?
Eventually yes.
So where are the save files actually located? I looked in the folder that the wiki-like thing mentioned and it's just jpeg files not actual save files.
The jpg are the saves.
My Game doesnt load. Ive tried to play the game but everytime I open it, it just is stuck on this one screen. SO like it asks me if I want patreon content. i say no and the title shows up and fades away. And then Im just left with the artpiece of a bunch of people in the steam pool or whatever. I can scroll around on the image but nothing happens. Im on MacOs, and Ive seen a somewhat similar error occur in some other games. And to fix that, I just went into the contents, macos, and opened upa terminal file called NWJS, or in this case, the terminal called PriceForFreedom. But the same thing happens. Any help would be appreciated.
Wait, Nvm. It works. It was just loading and took a long time. Perhaps the loading part was an error? If not, I would advise to add one in cause I was just stuck on that one piece of amazing art for like 5 minutes before I loaded in
It is strange that it takes this long, it should only be a few seconds.
Perhaps it could be that my computer is a Mac and a slightly old model? It could be because my computer overheated and is usually slow.
the outskirts seen refuses to load for me no matter how many times I reload the game or start a new one
This could be caused by your antivirus or Windows Defender blocking the files from loading. Add an exception rule for the PriceForFreedom executable. Sometimes just disabling and enabling the protection is enough.
I've done what you said but it still doesn't work
Could you send me your logs: C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\LocalLow\TeamDeadDeer\PriceForFreedom\Player.log
