in Newlife being super attractive had big consequences! Most npcs would treat you very differently! In this game at the moment, not really at all.
Sorry to go off topic here, but can you expand on this? I always thought it was just for some flavor text

In newlife both NPC and player attractiveness effects a couple things. If NPC X was highly attractive to the player(based off preferences made in character creation), the NPC could get away with more stuff sex wise. Player attractiveness helped with determining whether guys were even willing to talk to you.

Couple things from playing through this patch.

1. We probably need to add a bestiality tag to this. Your OC can give a horse a bj at the Farm coop during the fair. Not artwork, but a photo of a horse getting a bj.

Personally, I'm dumping the game from here on out for that reason alone. Just my opinion, but yikes.

2. Cooking food doesn't eat it for some reason, that's probably why people are starving for some reason. It adds it to your inventory instead. Probably should have a 'cook and eat' and 'cook and fridge' button IMO.

3. You can cheat the 'starving to death' bit by setting your character back to curvy or plump every few days if you don't eat. Just remember to save the body changes before you close the menu.

Most traits determine which events you are eligible for and can change generic events outcome.

Attractiveness in particular (combined with breast size and personality type) will essentially change how different npcs treat you. If you're super attractive, slutty with big boobs, npcs that are into those traits will target you for sex and might be *very* forward with you. If you're unattractive npcs will often ignore you and reject you're advances.

More interesting combinations might include, if you're attractive, big boobs but shy, npcs that like slutty girls might lust over you but actually hate your personality, and treat you like shit/an object.
This has consequences especially when the npcs are important, like your boss, boyfriend ect. You can get quite different events from them.

Yeaaa, tbh stuff like that isnt exactly a turn off for me, but from a legal and moral standpoint, having real pics for that is pretty fucked. Should get replaced with art asap.

Art is one thing, but actual photos is a huge ‘no-no’ that’s highly illegal in a lot of places.

Couldn’t care less if it was drawn or rendered art. Photos of it going on are past my personal boundaries. So I’m checking out.

I tried this version out after skipping a couple because I just couldn't stand the idea of replaying the prologue for an hour just to get a few minutes of new content (it is IRRITATING AS FUCK that the dev doesn't allow the player to skip the prologue when every new version wipes out the "completed prologue" accomplishment from the previous version). Saves from previous versions crash on sleep after a couple of days.

The good news is that there was some genuinely new content in the lab technician job. So that's a sign that things continue to move along. The job stuff in general seems to work better without the wild fluctuations in job performance. The new portraits for the characters look nice and have the correct attributes. The cops no longer just murder you if your clothing is too skimpy.

A huge improvement is the "save flushing" system that gets rid of the bugged saves. I recommend doing all your saves to disk and flushing the save system every night before going to bed. That kills the crash on sleep bug, which is a major advance.

The game is still fatally broken, though. The "suicide after 8 days" bug is still there (the PC can go from happy to suicidal overnight). Possibly this is due to the fact that addictions like "sex addiction" are acquired almost immediately in this version (my PC was sex addicted in the first try and cum addicted in the second, both times on the second day) and the mechanism for satisfying the addiction isn't in place yet (no amount of sex satisfies the sex addiction, for example). Not even Dr Lector can help you. Once the addiction happens, you get a timer that tells you how long until the inevitable bad end (3 days or so). Addictions are about the only thing that doesn't seem curable through cheats. The game would work much better if additions were simply turned off.

You can (and will have to) cheat away tiredness in the middle of the day despite a good night's sleep (napping is too unreliable since you have no control over the length of the nap and might miss something), but I found cheating much less necessary in this version than in the past versions.

The dating/calendar system is still wonky. Dates disappear so the PC cannot attend them, but the subject of the date still thinks the date is in the future, so you cannot reschedule. Every single attempt to date has the NPC suggesting a date at 9 PM next Wednesday, and no NPC will accept any suggested date and time by the PC. Each time you suggest a new date and time the NPC counter-suggests with a new one, though, so by repeatedly offering and getting refused you can get a date and time that works for the PC. The calendar isn't visible when you are trying to set up a date, though, so you have to be careful not to schedule when you've already got something scheduled. You need to know when the PC has something scheduled, pick a day when there's nothing, and keep rolling the dice until that NPC suggests that day. Annoying, but workable... until that date simply disappears off your calendar!

I also tried out FF sex in this version. Not much fun, as the player has no control over what the NPC does, and she can go two hours (something like 40 actions) without doing anything sexier than kissing and cuddling. The PC can get the NPC off many times in that period without getting off in return.

As others have noted, even beautiful and sexy PCs have a very hard time getting some actual sex, except through "Tingler hookups" which count for nothing except to reduce arousal, just like masturbation. Even when the calendar is still working early in the game, dates will often refuse to come back to the PC's place for sex.

So, the game seems to have made progress, but a number of fatal flaws that have been with the game from the start still make it scarcely worth playing except to see the world-building. It may well be that the game has grown beyond the capacity of the program to handle it, and the fatal bugs can't be avoided. I hope that's not true, because this game possesses enormous potential and the writing remains the best in any game here.
Id wondered if the game was in a remotely playable state but im continually disappointed lol. Still have some hope. Appreciate you saving us the grind of the annoying ass prologue to see if anything worthwhiles changed.

He actually just shared the last as a one-off kinda deal, the previous few were by jjhuf.
This game's generally a lot more of a sporadic thing, don't expect every version within a day or two like some of the titles on here with bigger followings and actually worthwhile content. (Though I do admit I'm curious about the new story, AW desperately needed some scaffolding for its daily grind...)

To be honest the game needs more content and polish so I advise holding off till the game looks more complete.

Thaum responded to my comment about actual photos of bestiality. (see below) I was always under the impression that it was basically a felony everywhere in the US. Still not my cup of tea though. Maybe I'll check back in on the game towards Christmas, but the odds of my supporting it again are pretty low to be honest.

I will admit I did get a chuckle seeing a stolen Jasonafex gif in the club district though.

"Sorry but you are wrong, here is the proof: as you may see there is a map which clearly shows that Oregon is the only state with a ban on zoophile pornorgraphy."
