First thank you for responding and I would like to say that you are free to play the path you like but now I will respond because in my humble opinion your path is wrong...you have to play the way you want but I like to argue the choices.
I get what your saying and I have recently started using the VN version. Generally I tried sticking with the sandbox version for as long as I did mostly because I enjoyed the feel of actually playing a game to some extent.
I prefer to focus on the story when the story is good. when I want to play a computer game I am more interested in getting high score to be the winner!
As I said this game is not suitable for sandbox structure because there is no score the player has to get to be him to win.In my opinion in this game the way to win is to open the most number of hot scenes...
If the player can open the most scenes in the gallery he becomes the winner
But you are correct that the VN seems to work much better.
I'm glad that you agree with me in this
As for my path, Ive tried each of them, however the path I choose the most as my Anna's "True" route per say, is Jeremy dead, And the bar owner dead.
why do you call “True” a path that clearly excludes you from the possibility of “winning” the opening of all gallery scenes?
To me it seems that you are contradicting your desire to play sandbox structure in order "the feel of actually playing a game to some extent"
Your choices are related with the Anna story so you should prefer the VN!
you are choosing to avoid certain content but in doing so you are hiding part of Anne's story from yourself and this does not allow you to understand what the "TRUE" path is.
The main story of this game is the one involving Jeremy alive and Parker alive--because only then will you see our heroine Anna take control of Jeremy's company and the Bar without killing anyone. the beauty of this story is that Anne, by pretending to submit herself sexually to the power of these dominant males, will succeed without killing them in taking their place of leadership (perhaps by continuing to be dominated by them in sex games), deriving pleasure from role-playing as a submissive woman in having sex with powerful men who do not prevent her from becoming their boss in the workplace.
When at the police station I used to choose to contact Carl, but, I mean, now we know thats not the best option.
Carl was the right choice at that time and is still the right choice today! You can't change your path just because today we don't like what is happening after that choice...this is not the way to play an interactive story
you are cheating the game!

At that time Carl was the faithful husband of Anna's sister...so it is still the right path!
this will open the possibility (thanks to Andrew) for Anna, to take Sergey's place in the mafia organization and at the same time help FBI agent Silva to arrest the REAL BIG DOGS and the main distributors of drug in SUN CITY
I usually go with the female doctor.
Female doctor does not fit with CH1... you are not in my main path but you are free to play as you want
My thing with Anna is I really like her choosing to be a hoe, I dont like when she is forced into it.
You want her to be a hoe??? Anna is not a hoe She is a woman who voluntarily fucks men to save her beloved boyfriend and who deserves respect for what she is doing... Your way to play is wrong!

Anna is never forced and is not coerced by anyone...she is the one who chooses to pretend to be submissive in order to get all the assets and money of her male bosses so that when the time comes she will take possession of the assets of those who think they have subjugated her..this is the best path to get to unlock all the scenes and have an Anna who takes revenge on all those who think they have her in hand and possess her
I wanna see her turn the bar into a ranchier establishment but itbe her choice.
The bar will be her own property also in my main path and it will be Parker himself who will give it to her
The bar will be for Anna a great way to stay in thouch the her fans as porno actress
She will make thanksgiving films for her fans by fucking them all and in so doing make even more money by creating her own new successful porn film
I also love the fact that she is becoming underworld queen per say.
She will be a queen also in my main path and with the plus that it fits with CH1 storyline
As for Andrew, I understand how he is necessary for the cheating aspect, but I just cant stand the kid. I really cant.
Andrew is her official boyfriend since CH1 and all the short novels
you are playing a path that is not the "TRUE ANNA PATH"!
You have to play the CH1 to understand this story!
This second chapter is nothing without start to play from the beginning of the story CH1
Without her boyfriend she is just a selfish whore and the story becomes senseless
There is no reason for Anna to make a lot of money
The story is based on the fact that she accepts to be corrupted as whore just to save the life of her beloved boyfriend!!
Otherwise the story is senseless!
His "redemption" arc I also feel felt forced to give him some "likeable" attributes. But I think it just did the opposite.
he took a bullet to save Rebecca ... it was Carl who wanted to kill her
Andrew does not need redemption at all..
He directly put Rebecca's life in danger.
you are total wrong!!! Andrew saved Rebecca... and we know this only in the CH2 when Andrew is regain her health after a 10ir more days of induced coma and many surgical operations... and Anna pays for save her beloved Andrew!
And for what? To bring down a crime organization and through it Anna's sister and her friends?
Your why to think about this story is ridiculous and senseless have you ever play the CH1?
Here is the ending scene of the great CH1
And only TODAY with the CH2 we know that was Carl the real traitor... And was Andrew the one was trying to protect his girlfriends... his first talk to Anna was about to explain that she and Rebecca was in DANGER because of Carl!!! Cerl is just shit! HE DESERVE TO DIE And I think will be Anna and maybe Rebecca the ones will kill him!!!
and as always good guys put themselves in danger to save the girlfriends they love
As you can see Andrew is there only to protect Anna and Rebecca and he knows that the traitor is Carl... but there is no more time to explain
her injury is serious and he passes out
here Sergey is wrong... BC now we know that WAS CARL TO GIVE THEM THE INFO!!!
I hope the moderators do not delete this post (i should use spoiler i know) BUT.. I leave this post with the pics visible because they are from the old CH1 and it is important for everyone to know exactly the skill of the author of this story...
I hope the moderators will understand that it is important to know the ending of the first chapter... in fact many things, as in the best novels, will be revealed with time
When she had the option to decide if she wanted to fix things, I chose for her to admit to herself that she has no intention of doing so.
you made the wrong choice because Anne is in love for Andrew... Sex is not the only thing important when you love someone ... She loves him because he is a loser... She love him like a mom... and usually moms don't fuck their sons to feel love for them.
Anna loves Andrew because he is the pure side of her love
She need Andrew to remain a human
I want to see something come from that realization. I think she needs to tell Andrew "ive done enough for you, its time for you to leave and find your own place". At least if thats the path chosen. I understand some paths cut off certain content, I also get that with all these routes, he is having to do more content directly related to certain routes. And sadly that takes more time. I just wish that wasnt the case.
Yours is pure madness! ... SHE IS NOT A SELFISH WHORE WITHOUT SOUL!!!
what would be left of Anna's empathy if she were to do what you want for her??
And for whom would she do all this?
If she leaves her boyfriend with anyone else she starts a relationship she would remain a selfish whore....
No one wants a woman like Anna after the hundreds of cocks she has fucked,,,ONLY ANDREW is her love that makes her a human female ... and the fact that he pretends not to know how Anna is becoming the empress of the city.... this fact makes Andrew the only man Anna can really loves....
Anna is pure love...
Anna needs Andrew to retain a shred of humanity and self-respect ... to be able to look at herself in the mirror and continue to believe that she can continue to deserve to have a romantic and pure love in her life ...
Without Andrew, Anna's story becomes that of a drunk whore destined to die alone in an alley after 100/1000 dirty men shove cocks in all her holes ... and her holes are so wide that no one will want her anymore
Without Andrew Anna becomes a dirty drunk whore who will die of syphilis and AIDS-
PS; I repeat you don't have to agree with me.. you are free to play as you want... I am just glad to have had a chance, thanks to your post, to write what I think about this great beautiful story of Anna Exciting Affections
