Sarcasm noted. And you make a valid point, "main story" would be better named "primary paths" or "primary love interests" or something like that. The point is, the side jobs are independent of pursuing any of the primary love interests (which we know is true because taking one or the other or neither doesn't open new or close off any primary love interest), so non-essential.
Thanks you for the reply.
As for me, I’m not a patreon. The only thing I want is a well written story. And mostly keep the game as it was first intended .
Something like the first time job or the last Vicky event are just lazy.
Almost no dialogue on the first and skipping the part where the characters have the most interesting dialogue in the second.
And let’s not talk about the number of renders.
I didn’t count, but the first time job is mostly composed of 20 renders. And that’s including the 2 or 3 events with them.
The thing is, not everyone is enjoying the main cast. Some because they don’t like incest.
I do but for some reason, I can’t enjoy it in this game. Not because it’s dumb ( I’ve played much stupid incest game and enjoyed them)
And not because it’s realistic ( I’ve read some “realistic ” incest story and enjoyed them much more than this one) .
Maybe it’s a mix of both. It’s supposed to be “realistic ” but it’s mostly on the unbelievable side . ( That’s just my opinion here). And it’s really slow (I’m not talking about the time between updates)
So yeah, I don’t enjoy how the Dylan/Sophia or the Ellie/Sophia relationship.
I’m mostly okay with Patricia.
And I don’t really care about Sam ( I just hope his storyline will stays the same : you choose to pursue his relationship with Sophia, or you don’t. No branching for him, no “harem ” )
So that left me with the side characters.
But when it’s as poorly executed as the last Vicky event ( 2 years in real time after her last one) , what’s left for those like me who don’t enjoy the main cast that much ?
I’m not a patreon so my opinion doesn’t really matter but if I recall correctly , in the last poll , the “ 5 main cast ” represent something like just above half of the votes.
That mean that for a large portion of patreon, their favorite characters is not part of the main cast.
I’m not sure that removing some of them is the best approach if he wants to keep them happy.
