It was added some times after 1.06 is all I can tell you. Tags aren't always accurate on this forum.
That would explain a recent influx of interest.
the NTR tag usage is kind of ambiguous because it covers at least three types of infidelity.

'netorare', basically means cuckoldry; where a character's love interest (or important person) is 'stolen' by another person.
'netori', where the main character is 'stealing' another person's love interest.
'netorase', which is basically swinging (sharing partners).

Yea I know, it's already been beaten like a dead horse!

I enjoy some NTR scenarios. I don't hate it, but I have been accused of being anti-NTR and attacked because I point out the game isn't NTR. I agree its ridiculous.
haters gonna hate

Many VNs are just games, some are serious efforts to create a story like this game. The thing about VNs like this, they are stories about the human condition and some times those stories have an element of truth that transcends beyond just a game and can effect people in many ways. Lets not belittle storytelling to just a game, just a book, just a movie when it can mean so much more to people in ways others can not understand.
Making a game is like writing a small novel, writing the code for the 60's era Apollo computer and then making the animations for a cartoon. They all take a lot of time, prone to mistakes and system crashes. So anyway...

Ahem, some of the best things are made in the 60s thank you. Sexy love gurus like me for example :LOL:
I'm definitely broken down though so maybe not lol

Objection noted but I respectfully disagree. I find it interesting you are outraged about comments about women yet ignore and/or fail to see the disgusting and vitriolic comments aimed at the MC, as a cuckold. I have seen the MC being called all sorts of vile names and condemnation poured on him. There has been plenty of it of late. Its being just as disgusting as anything else said on this page. I notice it as I know how cuckolds are misunderstood, reviled and stereotyped and it makes me sick.

Jason was particularly lambasted on this page as much as Tori if not more so for betraying his friend, especially by me. The only reason that stopped was because the dev said Jason isn't part of the conspiracy and yet the dev wanted us to think he was. I don't understand that one. Steph and Tori remain the bad guys, so there will be aggro aimed at them and rightly so.

Your objection did cause me to reflect upon my own comments and I am possibly over the top in my attitude towards Tori. Its hard to say as I don't know the extent of her actions yet. I do know, the threesome proposal was design to get the MC to agree to Tori's plans for Steph. Tori's conversation with the MC is solely for Tori to see how ready the MC is for Tori and Steph to go to the next level (compliments of the dev). That level of deception and manipulation alone warrants condemnation as far as I'm concerned whether a man or a woman.

Re Steph, All I will say is, have ever been married to a woman like Steph?

You doing too much bro, it just a game, a porn game at that. I get what you trying to say but this ain't it. And who cares if they are the bad guys? like wtf okay so? Maybe some people like them being bad guys? You type as if these were real people, I think somebody spent a little too much time on F95zone.

True, those are three of my favorites as well, though I wish EG would stay away from the "18 year old" boys that look 12. ALWL and PM are both a bit of a slooooow burn so far, but the storytelling is so well done it is forgiveable (perhaps necessary?).
WRONG, “A life worth living” is not slowburn. There is swinging scenes and cheating in every update bro, maybe go back and play it again skippy, “perfect marriage” is definately slowburn to the point that the dev refuses to even show the wife nude in the game, (said he’s waiting for her first extra marital affair to show it) that’s the most fucked up thing a dev has ever told me.

No, all of my wives were real people, not video game characters. J/K

All seriousness aside, I think we can agree to respectfully disagree about the game/characters in general. I would also like to applaud the entire thread for (almost 100%) having a conversation about NTR (not really) that stayed generally respectful. On F95. Gonna go to church and beg for forgiveness now as I am sure this is a sign of the pending apocalypse. ;)

lol I have to concur with Rat. ALWL started out slow, but plenty of action in the updates these days.

I wish my ex-wife wasn't fucking real! :LOL:

I'm happy to agree to disagree. Generally the guys here are a good bunch who all started out enjoying this game. We are a bit disillusioned but I am hopeful better days are ahead with the game and this page. I'd love to return to the pre-1.06 days. We had a lot of fun and a return to optimism and fun would be awesome. Cheers

Update: The game will now start (after the next update to the game) with a two item menu to enter your own name details or use the defaults, and it shows the default values so you know. One click - quick and easy. This was a fan request the devs catered too. Not a big deal as far as the game goes but its nice addition. Thanks devs.

Read that update and I was really quite surprised it was implemented so quickly. I guess it would probably help speed up their own internal testing too. Really hope the default would Erick ;)

New dev update. Its what we expected.

Dev Update #20

This week was a pretty typical work week for us. We are working on a lot of new content, so no updates to the game this week. Similarly, we are not ready to forecast when we will next update the game. We did spend a lot of time on test renders for new content with some ranging farther towards the end of the story. Steph’s business trip is coming up and that’s going to have a few new settings, so those always take some time to get populated and rigged.

We are basically done with major changes to existing content, and we are seeing the result we were hoping to achieve. There are only two things I can think of right now that are areas we will address in our existing content in the near future. We still have a few older animations to replace. At this point, we’ve replaced most of what we needed to replace, but there are still about eight to ten we will replace between now and final release. The other thing in existing content where we will do some work is on one path, the more challenging low confidence path we isolated in the last update. That path will need some updating for it to provide the Saturday and Sunday experiences we want associated with it. That content exists, and the changes would be totally unique to that path, so that’s not something that’s going to take our focus off getting out the new content. Otherwise, everything we are working on focuses on advancing the story towards the endings.

As always, thanks for being here for Early Access. Some of you have been around for a while now, and we appreciate your support of our effort. We also added a lot of new folks this month, so welcome to our newer players, and we hope you’re enjoying the game.

I'm kind of worried about Stephs work trip
I don't think she would cheat on the mc
But I'm always cautious in games like this
Me too, but lets wait and see. It may be a Low Confidence path thing.

Don't worry Joshy. I'm sure Steph will be waiting for you after it with open arms, open legs and a straw. You really need to think about an environmentally friendly straw it gets so much use :ROFLMAO:
