Its a great game, this thread is just filled with people who either expect vanilla in an ntr game, or are expecting award winning writing in a porn game
Let's say having big differences between branching paths isn't that easy, and this game suffers the same problem of many, many others.
Plus we are playing it 3 scenes every month, we have big expectations and hype. While hardcore fans of the game will always be satysfied, avarage enjoyers may not. That will probably be different if you just play the finished game without waiting for it.

I always thought the first part of the game, the so called "common route" is way more interesting and better written than the endings. It may be cause the corruption process was still going on, while it's almost or entirely after the branching.

There is the charm of "first time" and our nature of getting bored of samey things. So the first time girl breaks will always be the most impactful. However I personally like the routes more than the "common part" .

Another thing is that because we play the game bit by bit we dwell on things more. When reading completed story even if we don't like something, we can just skim over it till we get to part we like. Well if you don't like what is in the update (sometimes it may be only one scene), that is that, you will be upset and likely to voice it - game is still being developed right ? so there is a chance the feedback will be heard.

Finally I believe that at its core netorare is self contradicting. We want the girl to be pure and deeply in love yet we want her to betray and hurt her beloved. We want the dude to be "close" to the betrayal, we want it be palpable, withing his grasp but never realizing it yet at the same time he is supposed to be a normal person /aka not blind/. How do you write believable characters like that ?

How the f it is fair for people that don't like NTR to review NTR game? Why I can't review a review or at least dislike it?
How do i know he don't like NTR? He admitted it in another review but wasn't honest enough to do it here. WTF.
Also probably didn't even read the story because asking something that is obvious to anyone that did read it.

I find the point where the girls gives up/starts to realize things the most appealing, and this game has most of the corruption part in the "common" route. That may be the reason why i prefer it, i guess.

It's not really being upset for me, it's just "different people have different reactions". I'm not a fool and i know there will be branches i like and others i don't, that is real for every game i've played. I really think constructive criticism is good: debating about choices with manners is helpful and can improve the game (that's why i asked a while ago if this game discord was open, but apparently it's not). That said, one should always respect the creator vision first, and patrons decisions/votes as well.

I don't really like girls to be pure, i'd like to see them being corrupted and falling. I may prefer the cheating part more than the netorare one, because i don't really enjoy fiance/hubby trashtalking/humiliation/pain or whatever. Hubby can be smart/blind, it usually depens on choices/branches, but i'm usually more interested in the girl. One thing i really like it's a way out for them, i guess it really makes the game a better one, since the choices may lead them to a """good""" ending. ( i know the creator plans something like that for the game, imho it's a good choice).

Yeah, i'm familiar with this kind of things. I second you on this, we should be able to dislike reviews as much as we are able to like them. If you feel reviews are straight up fake, you can only try to report them and pray ^^'

Tbh, I only came back to playing this again because of the Aya ending, and I gotta say it really hurts on how it ended but I still love this route, it delves deep into Harry and Aya more about their backstories when they're drinking in the bar, the fact that she knows about his trauma better than Laura. I like how in this route Laura is very obsessive towards Harry halfway through the story but in others she's just condescending and doesn't give two shits about him (I know she's corrupted by now but still even before that), idk its just how I felt. An abrupt way to end, on how that we never got to see what happened afterwards maybe it doesn't matter, Luca wins in the end. I might stick around to see how it ends on this game.

Oh right, this line really stucks out to me the most.

Laura becoming obsessive after realizing she going to lose harry is true to life. A guy on one of those ask reddit videos figured out his wife was cheating start being distant and less affectionate with her. While preparing to divorce her. Lady immediately wanted to brake it off with the guy because she thinks her hubby was cheating on her.

Is anyone having the same problem as me?
This is only on the title screen, and when I click ignore, the game immediately skips into the part where you choose between Harry's POV or Everyone's POV.
The game is still playable, but I can't access the gallery now. I have to mention that I also installed the older build, and I received the same error message.
I also tried downloading other Renpy games and they run just fine on the title screen.
