The game is fantastic, but I do have an issue. After my first time playing the game, it wouldn't continue past the splash screen. After the Price for Freedom logo disappears, the white light in the background settles into an oval shape and stops moving. The game doesn't freeze, the mute and exit buttons in the top right still work.
I've tried several things to fix this, I've tried reinstalling a couple times, I've tried moving my save data in case if something corrupted, but nothing worked. The only hint I have is that the Player.log file under AppData/LocalLow/TeamDeadDeer/PriceForFreedom says:
SplashScreen not found: C:/Users/[user]/OneDrive/Desktop/[folder]/priceforfreedom-windows/PriceForFreedom_33_6_Windows/PriceForFreedom_Data/../AssetBundles/cinematics/loadingscreen_naga
Edit: Problem not solved yet, but I did some more digging in the meantime, and found that all of the loadingscreen_(name) files are all definitely under the AssetBundles/cinematics file. I also noticed that whenever I launch the game and check the new Player.log file, the missing loading screen changes. Probably just because it searches for a random one every time. But that still means that it is somehow missing all of them, despite the fact that they are where they need to be.
I'm not experienced with any unity things, so if I could get a dev's input on this, that would be great.
It's possible your antivirus (avast?) is preventing the game from loading properly. Make sure you downloaded the game from Itch.io, and then try to add exceptions for the game exe in your antivirus.
I don't use avast anitvirus, and Windows Defender doesn't seem to have an issue with the game. I'll try reinstalling from itch.io again.
Idk if it helps at all, but the past couple of times I've booted up the game, even after reinstalling, it didn't install the separate package of assets, or whatever. I remember when I booted up the game for the first time it had a progress bar at the bottom while it did something with it's assets, but that hasn't happened since then, even after moving all of the data under AppData.
The combat is too confusing for me that even the easy mode is not good enough for it since i can't clear the prologue without either using cheats that 1 hit kills the enemies or my party have infinite hp, so i can't see everything from the prologue and beyond.
Ok, i will do that if i need to, but i need to test if doing this auto gives the xp and stuffs that winning the battle manually would give or not, the other part of the game are great other than the combat, but hopefully new characters and stuffs will happen someday along the way when they are ready.
I have a question: can I use this cheat code when there comes a new build out (if I don't download the new build)? I don't like to unlock my full gallery before playing the game, but I want to be able to unlock the images and scenes I missed when I finnish the game. I'm a bit worried that by the time I finnish the game, there will be a new version, and I won't be able to use the code without being subscribed on patreon.
Ok, but my question actually was: If there exist a more recent build, the old version won't auto-update its cheat code, so as long as you don't download the newer version, you will be able to use the old cheat code, right?
Yes, you will always have access to the version you were a patreon for, even if you stop supporting the game, and your old code will always work for that version. Also you can download old builds in the archives, so you don't have to worry about loosing your older build.
Hello, I deleted all the saves a while ago (In local roaming). Now I downloaded the game again and subbed to Patreon, but don't want to play again from the beginning. Does anyone have the saves ( up to the completion of all of the free quests)?
So far i like the game its pretty interesting, but i notice the character design beginning of the game by any chance there will be other race/gender you can be or is it just the elf only character which don't get me wrong i don't mind being a elf at all xD
Okay make since ^_^ great story line then (Plus i was just making sure that's all since i saw the custom character when playing new game), anyways keep at it though its starting to seam like a awesome turn base/sex type of game lol
Hi TeamDeadDeer, i love the game, but can Price of Freedom come to the mobile players? i play the first time in PC and LOVE it (sorry for bad english, im from Brasil)
Hi, the game has been a lot of fun but I noticed a small bug with starting the Loose Ends quest (at least in the free version). After the ending of The Crimson Dervish quest, talking to Scylla will trigger the prompt of taking her into the party, not the start of the quest. If you then go to the burnt building and get the quest item (as I did just for the sake of exploration), you will be softlocked because the person at the lighthouse won't talk to you. The way the quest starts is by taking her in the party, take her out, then talk to her again.
As far as I recalled, it went smoothly in terms of mechanics. though I don't remember any prompt explicitly recommending me to take Hiho as is the "proper" story experience (I've learned this through the walkthrough page after the fact when trying to figure out how to start the earlier mentioned quest) I just coincidentally took Hiho along on my first run out of pure curiosity on how these two apparently distinctly different characters would react to story beats.
I can see why you used external links for download but you as game dev on itch can ask to have more than the provided 1GB but probably for a fee the biggest game i've seen so far was around 10GB and i don't think its that expensive the game that i've seen doesn't seem it was developed by a big studio
Welp you are not wrong they do have pointy ears but I was hoping for it to be more specific but pointy ears kind it is I guess. (Edit) I had just realized that's just all elves
great game just not a fan of the combat. Wish it was more rpg style and less strategy style. I have a hard time with these tyle combat games unfortunately. not the games fault and is still a good game. would recommend.
Hello, I'm trying to do the Scales of Justice quest but talking to the man by the green building in the old docks does nothing and talking to beggars softlocks the game, I can move the camera, open the inventory and save menu but I cant fast travel. Anyone knows what to do?
Decided to randomly smash the keyboard and it un-softlocked and the beggars speak normally now but the quest dosnt seem to continue. Stuck at "Investigate green building in dock area"
Hi. We are a small team of translators. We liked your game, its story and we would like to translate it into Russian for players from the CIS. If you would be interested in this, please write how to contact with you.
Iwant to play more, I'm just not sure how long I need to wait to have more progress I can make. I think there was a story decision that has me slightly annoyed, but the game itself is fun enough.
I remember however that I felt like if I play every update I might get bored somehow, you just have enough of some Early Access stuff after a while.
There is a lot of content in the patreon version, like tens of hours, even if the game isn't finished. The public version is quite shorter but gives a decent idea of what to expect (even if its scenes and quests are a bit aged compared to the rest).
If you are patient enough it will be released on Steam eventually.

Why is there no version for Android devices?
Because it takes time :<

Could you join our discord, in the bug tracker channel. It will be easier to help you there.
can i export my save file from the online game? i played for a few hours and now want to continue the patreon version on windows.
No that's not supported at the moment, but you can skip the prologue at least.
Does the cheat code unlock the iski pillow scene? (She's my favorite)
Yes it unlocks all the scenes.
it wont start for me
The web version?
The combat is too confusing for me that even the easy mode is not good enough for it since i can't clear the prologue without either using cheats that 1 hit kills the enemies or my party have infinite hp, so i can't see everything from the prologue and beyond.
You can skip the combat if that's not your thing, bottom right button.
Ok, i will do that if i need to, but i need to test if doing this auto gives the xp and stuffs that winning the battle manually would give or not, the other part of the game are great other than the combat, but hopefully new characters and stuffs will happen someday along the way when they are ready.
А когда ни будь появится русский язык?
There is a price for freedom, but not a price for me to wank
Jokes aside, great game! Very high quality combat system for this type of game and the artstyle is attractive! Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
I wish it had an android download
It will eventually.

I'm a bit worried that by the time I finnish the game, there will be a new version, and I won't be able to use the code without being subscribed on patreon.
The code only works for a specific version. For something more permanent you should wait the final release of the game, here or on Steam.
Ok, but my question actually was: If there exist a more recent build, the old version won't auto-update its cheat code, so as long as you don't download the newer version, you will be able to use the old cheat code, right?

Waiting for android support, day 1
+1
hi~
be hungarian translation in this game
Yes there will be.
thank you :)
I'm genuinely sad that there's no anal scenes so far.
There is with moira at least.
Hello, I deleted all the saves a while ago (In local roaming). Now I downloaded the game again and subbed to Patreon, but don't want to play again from the beginning. Does anyone have the saves ( up to the completion of all of the free quests)?
Yes, load the saves named Build_XX. They correspond to the content of a particular build.
Will Chinese be added in the future？Sorry,my English is poor.
Yes this is planned.
do anyone know a general time the game will come to steam?
We don't know yet. Gold & Sand will come out first.
What's the difference between free and patron content?
Check the walkthrough quests, the first third or so are in the public build.
So far i like the game its pretty interesting, but i notice the character design beginning of the game by any chance there will be other race/gender you can be or is it just the elf only character which don't get me wrong i don't mind being a elf at all xD
Yes it will always be an elf, because it's a character with a backstory, not a blank slate like in Elder Scrolls for example.
Okay make since ^_^ great story line then (Plus i was just making sure that's all since i saw the custom character when playing new game), anyways keep at it though its starting to seam like a awesome turn base/sex type of game lol
Thank you!
Hi TeamDeadDeer, i love the game, but can Price of Freedom come to the mobile players? i play the first time in PC and LOVE it (sorry for bad english, im from Brasil)
Hey thank you, yes a mobile version is planned but I can't make any promise on the timeline.
Thats awesome!
finally it will come to android, thanks alot TeamDeadDeer!
Can you tell me, pls, the way, how buy the game in the Russia. I cant do it through paypal or from my card.
We are unaware of alternative ways to take payments from Russia. You'll have to figure it out on your own.
Hey, I'm gonna do a little research and get back to you, but it might be a little convoluted to get around sanctions.

Hey, could you send a bug report in game, bottom left of the main menu. So I can load your save and reproduce it.
Unless you are playing the web version which doesn't have this feature.
Ah thank you, I've done so.
It's fixed, thanks for reporting the issue. I assume you didn't have trouble doing the quest when it starts normally?
As far as I recalled, it went smoothly in terms of mechanics. though I don't remember any prompt explicitly recommending me to take Hiho as is the "proper" story experience (I've learned this through the walkthrough page after the fact when trying to figure out how to start the earlier mentioned quest) I just coincidentally took Hiho along on my first run out of pure curiosity on how these two apparently distinctly different characters would react to story beats.
中文，我们需要中文
Hey i was wondering if at some point will be a android version
Yes, it's planned.
I can see why you used external links for download but you as game dev on itch can ask to have more than the provided 1GB but probably for a fee the biggest game i've seen so far was around 10GB and i don't think its that expensive the game that i've seen doesn't seem it was developed by a big studio
Done.
THAT WAS FAST
is there a way for me to extract a save file from the web version of the game because i have decided i like the game enough to download it.
Not at the moment :/
You can skip the prologue when creating a new game at least.
I'm playing this combat could be better and what kind of elf are we playing as?
The pointy ears kind. They aren't very different from humans in this setting.
Welp you are not wrong they do have pointy ears but I was hoping for it to be more specific but pointy ears kind it is I guess. (Edit) I had just realized that's just all elves
great game just not a fan of the combat. Wish it was more rpg style and less strategy style. I have a hard time with these tyle combat games unfortunately. not the games fault and is still a good game. would recommend.
Keep in mind you can play in easy more or skip the combat if that's not your thing.
i have problem in scale of justice green build
Thank for reporting, it's fixed. It's a bug introduced with build 33.2. It will be fixed in version 33.3 released later today.

There's a minor bug in Hiho's gallery. In her second pose (the forward facing one), the bra layer doesn't work.
Thanks, fixed.
How do i know if the patreon code worked? I pressed enter and nothing really happened.
Make sure you use the right code for the right version. Build 33 code is here.
You can check your game version bottom left of the main menu.
im kinda dumb cause i thought thered be gender options for the player character (male and female)
You may be interested in Gold & Sand if you want a female protagonist (not released yet).
NOW IM HOOKED

will the full version be released on itch as well ?
Yes, and GoG.
Snake wife :D
When it comes to Android ?
Or tell me any apk or app to play the game because it doesn't work on joiplay
It will but we don't know when yet.
when it comes to steam?
We don't know for Avarice, when it's done.
The best nsfw game ever. Even without nsfw it is an incredible game
