Damn, I'm one of those who criticised the game on how it was being made (yk I thought dev was complicating things for himself). Although I'm not that happy having to restart the game yet again (rly hope this was actually the last time lol).
I'm glad to see dev went for a simpler approach to the gameplay and design. And, look even though it may seem simpler it's waaay better than the previous one. I think giving up the stat thingy was a great thing, it wass too hard on the dev and you could feel it. Every update had little content to offer and everytime it was followed with more bug fix updates rather than proressing the questlines. ALthough I'll admit I liked choosing the nature of the character and the whole thematic in general but I'd rather progress through the game than wait an eternity for the thing to be ready.
The interface feels smoother and lot more user friendly than previously, the hints for quests are better. And I love that he included a way to know if smn is in a room it saves a lot of time if you are chasing "non quest" scenes.
I rly liked the content this update offered with Eve and Shei. At 1st I though the game would be straight up p0rn. Wile it still is there a surprinsing wholesome side to it. I'm happy to see this game finally advancing, if it continues like that, I don't think it'd still deserve the 2.5 rating it currently carries. Well, only time will tell, as for me I can't wait to see what the dev has in store for us. A bit affraid for the school if there is one to come (hinted by Shei) arc given how long it took to make the home part tbh.
Overall, I'm glad that dev listened to the community and put in perspective how things were going for his game. I know from experience that when you make somthing yourself, you often become biased about it which results in making it hard to listen or accept any advice or constructive criticism. But I think it's a wall we all have to break throuh to achieve greater heights.
Anyway, GL dev hope we'll have more releases now.
