Wow. I have been around this game since early on, and the potential was amazing at the beginning. I immediately pledged some Patreon ducats as I knew this would be a great game. Then, the past 2 years happened. Damn, this is milking at an extreme level, but not only that, the dev is inserting stuff into the game that is unavoidable and narrative killers. On the milking front, what was it, 8 screens/renders for Sophia to remove her shirt and lower her bra? Seriously? Not sure I want to hear the dev talking about "tons of work" if that is the workload he puts on himself. Seems over the top. Slow burn is one thing, that was ridiculous.
But the biggest issue was narrative in nature. The draw of this game (at least to me, and likely many others) was the descent into depravity of the heretofore wholesome wife and mother. The game is showing that (slowly), and some of it is quite good. What sucks is the addition of elements that are really quite unbelievable and narrative-killing, Aiden and the casino boss. Sophia's corruption needed to be, at its heart, her choice to make the most visceral effect on the player. She succumbs to the pleasures around her, not a series of ham-fisted blackmails like the strangely untouchable Aiden or soon this mob boss casino owner. She will quite simply be forced into doing things, which feels way too rapey for me. Sure, the dev made the no bra scene in the classroom pretty good, but it is way too fine a line to walk without simply getting into coerced sex. Lots of people will like that regardless, I am less enamored by it.
In the end, who cares what I think, I just like the sound of my own voice (translated into keystrokes and thus this post). Devs gonna dev, and he will have a core base that likes his work unconditionally. Sounds like a win to me.
