Ok so I remained friends with Cove and have Derek as friends too but accepted the deal "cus i was fond of him" and finished step 2 and in the in between Cove's relationship status popped up but not Baxter's, is it because i accepted the deal with Derek? Or do i have to wait until i finish the step 3 prologue?
Edit: I got my answer, I just had to wait until I officially met him, I guess I got a bit impatient and nervous when I didn't see it where I usually saw it with Cove's relationship status
I absolutely loved this dlc! I'm so sad there isn't going to be anymore with Baxter. I saw alot of myself in him. Always wanting to be apart of something but keeping yourself at arms length so you don't have a chance of getting hurt/ not really feeling like you belong anywhere. I love that skunk man! Would have loved to somehow see his parents and knock them down a peg. Lol Time to read as many Baxter fanfics as possible! (any recommendations are welcome)
I love him, i yearn for him, i am reviewing this too late. I JUMPED when the DLC first came out for Baxter and it did not disappoint. I'm here to join in begging for a 18+ mod of this lovely, complex man
im a little confused and I tried my best to follow how to unlock his route, but basically I've done Coves moments in Step 3, except for his Hang, but there wasn't an option there to include Baxter... I also chose Baxter as Fond in step 2, but it's still not unlocking :( I'm so excited to play his route but I'm stuck!
Can you see a button on the right side of the Moment select screen for Step 3? Clicking that will show Baxter's five Moments. If the DLC is properly installed, the Moments will be playable. If not, they'll be locked. If they are locked, maybe try updating the base game with a new version and adding the DLC to that. Or make sure the rpa file is in the right folder.
Okay so, for some reason I loaded one of my saves from step 2, and changed Cove to crush instead of love. And then baxters route was unlocked thank god. So when that happened, I saved that, but then when I go to my original save which I'm dating Cove, Baxters route is locked there still. Does it matter if I play and finish Baxters route step 3 in a seperate save, then load up the save where I was originally playing and where i'm dating Cove where I had done all his moments in Step 3, even if baxter is locked still? Basically I'm just wondering, the main story where I'm in love with Cove on one save, and then on baxters route on a seperate save, but NOT in love with cove, how does it affect or change the story and or relationships with everyone, if that makes sense? Thank you and sorry again (｡•́︿•̀｡)
Or would it also make sense if I playthrough all of Coves steps, then load up a save for baxter and his route and his epilogue, then load another seperate save for step 4 to play dereks one?
Baxter's story can only unlock if you don't load a save that's already in Step 3. You need to play Step 3 from the very start. So either starting a new file or loading a save that's in Step 2 and then going into Step 3.
you have no idea how emotionally wrecked i am to have played a completely different ending to this game two years after i thought i was content with Cove's Step 4 epilogue. i am in tears, happy tears, and experiencing the bittersweet feeling that my dream man is a two-dimensional skunk that will forever live in this world.
i love the depth and care that went into his character, and no amount of Cove-ness could sway me from my mission to wholeheartedly love Baxter the way i did throughout Step 3 and his epilogue. the way i was cheering, booing, gasping, and protesting against all of it, really reminds me that GB always has a way of capturing their audience's attention, moving them with such rich stories, and just overall giving us little pieces of a life we can always go back to.
so, from a long-time fan, thank you so much for not only this DLC and the care that went into it but the entire game as a whole. 💛
I can't put into words how much I love Baxter.Sorry Cove, but this man stole my heart.And this despite the fact that I didn’t particularly like him at first.But after the DLS....I'm a little obsessed with him, to be honest XD
I know you weren't planning on making more DLC for this game, but if Baxter's wedding DLC existed, I'd be happier than ever...
can i pls get some help on what to do on baxters dlc, so specifically in step 4 right after the wedding of scott and jude is finished theres a scene of terry, miranda and cove preparing to leave w a bg of a parking lot and i believe baxters sprite or img is supposed to show up on the left but before he shows up/the img loads the game stops and the traceback file appears saying this:
" Could not load image u'images/characters/Baxter_24/base2.png': error(u'Out of memory',) "
which led me to be confused as i have 15gb free in my laptop since it said out of memory, i rlly want to continue playing and needed some insight! ty
That kind of error generally means the game is struggling to run. You could try turning off the animations to make it easier to load, have fewer things running in the background like other applications, or just closing the game and trying again a little later. Sometimes it's a weird fluke and will go a away the next time you play. You could also see if hitting the ignore button will bypass the error screen without issues.
but on another note, thank you for this dlc :") admittedly, he'd already captured my heart even from my first playthrough (ngl i was sad when i saw that derek had a dlc on the works but no sign of mr victorian era emo)
Just stopping by to say that's my favorite DLC for this game. Baxter really surprised me, and the plot was way more emotional and in-depth than I anticipated. That made me choose Baxter as my favorite character for this VN as well. I had fun and was extremely invested in the story. I believe many could even shed some tears during some moments. If you deal with social insecurities and enjoy characters who are more than just their superficial side they decide to show in general, I believe you will enjoy this one, very much so. Very realistic and relatable, the plot and the characters in this portion of this game are great. Cannot wait to see him again in OL:N&F.
Spoilers below.
. . . .
. . .
Even if it will be bittersweet since he left after college, I do headcanon he reunited with his past friends at some point though, alongside the MC.
If anyone is unsure about purchasing this DLC, as someone who felt indifferent/meh about Baxter during the base game, I'm obsessed with his route, which totally pleasantly surprised me! Gives him a lot of depth and his romance path is so rewarding and sweet. Their romantic arc reminds me of "the 1" and 'Wildest Dreams" by Taylor Swift. Love love love! Definitely worth the purchase.
Minor spoiler under cut
*SPOILER: I love that if you attend the Soiree in Step 2 with someone (I've only ever went with Derek so far, unsure if it's toggled if you go with Cove too but I'm assuming so) you can meet cross paths with Baxter and the game pays attention to that and adds dialogue that wouldn't be there if you hadn't met him then. Makes it even sweeter! Unsure if there's any path where you can interact with him more, only tried it once.
I have this on Steam and have been searching for a guide online for how to end up in a relationship with Baxter in Step 4. I've dated and married Cove, dated Derek, and have done Baxter's Step 3 and am in Step 4. I read on Tumbler that there are pitfalls to avoid in order to get Baxter back, but I can't find anything on that. I know OL is really flexible and much easier than other otomes I've played, but I'm terrified of messing everything up with Baxter. I have so many saves O.O Are there things to avoid, or am I worrying too much?
Also, thank you for the wonderful game(s) that is(/are) Our Life. I can't wait for the second to be done.
All you have to do to get Baxter's version of Step 4 is play all five of his Moments in Step 3. Some people accidentally do Cove's version of Hang rather than Baxter's, but there's no wrong thing to say that will lock you out of the route. So when you play the Moment "Hang" just make sure Baxter is included in the beach outing.
I can't install this masterpiece in my smartphone. I have the free version also the dlc for baxter 🥺 ((. First I install the base then dlc. But still when I open i can't see the dlc there
Install the dlc first and open it. It should direct you to a screen showing that you have successfully installed the dlc. After that, install the base game again and check the dlc info icon on the top left. I hope this works!
Make sure you fully remove the base game entirely from your device before trying to download the DLC. If it's still there in your files, saved but uninstalled, it can cause issues!
I hope you remember when you press v it reads it out to you for a I hope you have installed it I already tried your demo and you have it then and I tried to download the next update but then it was gone I have already pressed the a button and I always have tried to turn it on but it didn't work I have a hard time reading it because the v button helps me and I'm so sad if I cannot listen to this game I'm really Hope you guys can help with this I have no problem the game our life I have all your DC packet I just want to have fun with the new game you are trying on
First, I am deeply grateful for creating the wonderful world of Our Life! I have loved Baxter since he was first introduced during the Kickstarter campaign and now he's here! I love how Baxter grew throughout his route. I still can't get over Baxter's route as I discovered more info about him from friends from Discord. I'm looking forward to OL 2 !!
I really love the entire game. I don't know how best to put it, but Cove Holden has been a comfort character, Sunset Bird and the whole gang my family for difficult times and really didn't think anyone could ever give my best boy a run for his money - (his 20 Dollars if you know what I mean). I liked the Derek DLC, he was nice, I already loved him in the base game and I had a good time with it, but I was not prepared for the thunder storm that would be Baxter Ward.
Jesus Christ.Hallelujah.
I love the monochrome man. He's been living rent free in my head ever since I played the DLC for the first time, I can't stop thinking about him. I find myself going back to the game time and time again. The DLC is pure perfection with the only flaw being that I really, really would've liked to spend more time with Baxter, Xavier, Jude, Scott and the gang. Everyone was so authentic even with Baxter being a pompous precious ass he felt like a real person with real problems and so so relateable. While playing the base game I didn't really click with him, but ho boy was that different in his DLC. Everyone on this team deserves a huge congratulations for the story writing, the art, the voice acting, literally everything.
I can't recommend playing this enough. You are in for a wild, but beautiful ride my friend. Allow the autumn storm that is this man to sweep you away for a little bit, you won't regret it.
This is impressive. I love his story line, I'm ashamed to admit his character remind me of myself so much. I ghosted many people but that doesn't mean I hate them, I'm cynical too and I have a lot issues with my family. Im not proud about what I did I have a lot issues and hurt many people sadly. I need to get my life together. IMO Baxter is so lucky to be able find a person like our MC. Sorry for my ramble.
Hi, I have tried to download the dlc package (Im a Mac user), but i cant seem to play the dlc at all. I have put the rpa file into the 'our life' file, but it still wont let me play the game. Please help, :<
I'm a Mac user as well. Did you put the DLC file in the "game" folder of the game? You suppose to right-click on the game files, then click through these sub-folders -> show the package contents -> contents -> resources -> autorun -> then you will find the "game" folder -> put the DLC file/s in there. I did that and played perfectly fine. I hope this might be helpful :D
Did you play all five of his Step 3 Moments? There's one Moment "Hang" that has a Cove version and a Baxter version. If you do the Cove version you won't be able to play Baxter's Step 4 storyline.
hi! i bought it but i cant download it, is there anyway i could be emailed a direct download link similar to how the Our Life:Now and Forever one was? sorrry if this troubles you! -devil
I'm sorry, I can't make that happen. Itch.io itself will have to resolve the problem. You'll need to contact their support and explain you didn't get a method to download the file. I hope it works out!
Hello! During the Mountains moment, after waking up in the cabin for the first time and choosing to swim in the morning, i think a certain line appears twice.
After Baxter texted you, i got "After sending off that last text, you tucked your phone away and hurried to your room." and "After sending off that last text, you hurried to rinse off and change before heading to your room." right one after the other.
I'm afraid there's nothing we can do if Itch's site isn't working. I am sorry that happened though and hope they can fix it or give you your money back!
Buying on Itch only gets you access to the game on Itch. I'm afraid key trading like that isn't something Steam is super thrilled about and they're trying to get people to stop. We can't participate in that practice. You'd need to request a refund from Itch and buy directly from Steam if you'd like to have it on Steam.

any possibility of a baxter wedding dlc 👀

sincerely thanks GBPatch devs o7
I'm really glad you enjoyed Baxter! But I'm afraid we're no longer making new DLCs for the game. It's considered complete.

Thank you so much for the helpful tip! I followed through the instructions and it worked! You are a lifesaver!!
Am i doing something wrong? Its not letting me play
Have you gotten the most recent version of the base Our Life build? Or did you add the DLC to an older version of the game?
It works now. But how come i cant get to the part where baxter is older and has fully black hair and everything
Step 4
Did you play all five of his Step 3 Moments? There's one Moment "Hang" that has a Cove version and a Baxter version. If you do the Cove version you won't be able to play Baxter's Step 4 storyline.
I did do Baxter hang! I might have to restart everything over. In order to avoid cove's do i skip?
Hello when i try to play the game, it doesn't let me choose my last name or first one really
Thank you for the report!
