Is this just another 'Groundhog Day' type of grind where the player has to read the same text and repeat the same actions 500 times just to gain a stat point? Or is there any real variation to the mechanics? I don't mind a bit of a challenge to earn a fap, but mindlessly clicking through repeated scenes is just not engaging.
I love playing text-based games, but it feels like all of these types of games are falling into a trap of repetitious nonsense, and calling it a game mechanic.
Ok so this is really not a text-based game.. and regarding on the repeating to grind a stat, I would like to think I have created alot of variation. Some stats yes, you will find them boring to upgrade..
but an example.. the strength building one, each time you work out you get a vid of a pretty lady (or fella if your stats are that way leaning) working out..
When you talk to npcs, to build up their like, each location has a different image and convo.. (for the npcs that you need to be working on, if its same pic everywhere, then this is not an npc I have developed yet).
So in answer to your question.. I would like to think its not a ground hog day... but I would admit there are minor aspects that would be rinse and repeat..
There are about 8 ways you can earn money also.. and with in them.. the paper round for instance triggers a random pic from a selection..
