I think I've read somewhere in this thread that kissing Kindra on stage during the halloween party fuck up a lot of scenes, but I didn't take the time to check out the files so really I don't know. I did kiss her on stage so this could explain that.
Yes, the DJ Kink kiss locks out the Paige and Reina scenes, and it also impacts Zelda and Naomi.

It's pretty common sense, though, isn't it? Kissing a famous celebrity in front of all the other LIs is a pretty clear signal to them that you are interested in someone that they see as above their league. The fact that she doesn't deck you means that she probably reciprocates.

(edit: not sure why it cut off my comment, but...)

To me, that's the fatal limitation of Exclusive Love Interest in VN. It's hard to keep a good writing, compeling story, depth of character if MC is a manwhore jumping on every thing with a pulse and collecting girls like TCG. The solution would be Exclusive Love Interest (or triangle) and definitive choices closing the route of other LI. In practice, that's a lot of work for the Dev, creating lots of timelines and pathing routes for the player to only explore one at a time.
Another playthrough could focus on another ELI but....... only once you have finished the game and reached your happy (or soppy) ending with the first ELI. But VN on F95 are always in progress, completions take year. I, for one, can't wait X years for the game to be completed by playing only one path.
Here come either the multipath mod, the branching path multi save (with smart labeling) or the UMP.
So I am living in multiverse of // paths and different ELI. I both kissed and didn't kiss Kindra during the party. I went to the museum with one girl and to a dinner date with Reina at the same time. Paige has no recollection of me driving Zelda to the airport.
It's unsatisfying and I feel like I'm betraying the vision of the author. On the other hand, my favorite girl being Zelda and seeing as she has near zero content this chapter, I would have two years between revelant content.
There is no perfect solution.
I like how another game (that I can't mention due to rules) does it.

You date around, they know you date around, then the MC reelises that someone's gonna get hurt so he has to make a choice. You get a good chunk of content around each girl before you have to commit

Yep, and the dev made it very clear there would be different exclusive paths one chapter before the branching. And we had ample time (plus the summer story of childhood friend) to make different save.

But in the end, if you want to experience all the content, you have to build your harem over several save files. Is there anyone playing a strict single playthrough without visiting the different paths ?

I wish this game had an option to increase the text size—it’s a bit hard to read with my poor eyesight. Other games are fine, but something about the font or size in this one makes it tougher. Not sure exactly why, but it is what it is.

press A in game (sometimes you need to use shift or alt) you can change the font size, but sometimes just changing it to default font at the top will do wonders. I often have the same issue, its just 'a little too small' since I sit on the couch and the tv across the room is my pc screen

some novels wont respond well to the native font size changes, like games with complicated UIs or sandboxes, but there are mods you can search for that will do it. I think Koga made one of them? all his mods have font editing.

Hey everyone!
Temps are rising but the render box is holding strong. Pretty much the primary reason I even watercooled the system because I have to store it in the garage. Because I don't want that thing dumping hot air inside.
I wanted to discuss file hosting and possible alternatives.
I've officially gotten rid of GDRIVE. That seemed the best until you hit a download limit. And yes, there are tricks to get around it. But I just want you guys to click a button and the download starts.
MEGA I still support since some have expressed that as their preferred host. Some have a subscription there for their own reasons. Others, like with GDRIVE, have their methods of getting around the 5GB quota. MEGA gave me some issues this last release. The initial upload was quick. Then as I tried to upload the patch, things slowed dramatically. I'm talking from 90+ MB/s down 1-5Kb/s. Which was annoying as I was trying to stay on top of the uploads.
WeTransfer seems to be great for most. I do get a few replies that the download fails after a certain point, so that's concerning.
PixelDrain is the newest I've been using. PD is kind of the reverse MEGA. Free accounts have a 5GB limit. But I'm supporter of the creator's Patreon and because of that, there's no download quota for you guys. PD will be my main platform as there's a lot more I can do with it and I plan on setting more of it up as I go through development.
I wanted to get opinions on other file hosts. I'm looking for something that offers clean interfaces with no popups or anything malicious. Good speeds. I don't mind having to pay to host if it means convenience for you guys. I pay for WeTransfer and PixelDrain and those two have had the least issues.
Have yourselves a great week and be sure to hydrate!

I currently have 1 playthrough for the game you're referring to: MJ. And I have 1 playthrough for Artemis: Kindra & June primary focus, but with as much other stuff as I think I can get without crashing and burning later.

I almost never do more than 1-2 playthroughs of an AVN. I play primarily for the story, character discovery, and relationship development immersion, and rapidly skipping through in alternate playthroughs breaks that for me. And I rarely have both the time and interest to do more than 1-2 full readings.

Consequently, I generally prefer games with poly/harem paths, games that force you to pick your LI late in the game rather than early, or games that only have 1-2 main LIs. Otherwise I know there's a big chunk of content I'll likely never see.

Yeah, it‘s 49,99 € per year and I haven‘t noticed any freezing
I do it per month. Unfortunately, it doesn't convert even in the email every month to local currency (US $ for me.) Odd it's ONLY euros, given it's based in NZ. It often will freeze in the middle of the first part (where it downloads to whatever before asking you where to save - where it then starts downloading to your computer.) That 2 stage download is also a negative.

When you download using MEGA, there should be a green button on the lower right of the screen that says "Download". To the right of that there should be separate green button with "v". If you hover over that, there will be a choice for "Standard download" or "Download with MEGA Desktop App". If you choose the latter, it will bring up a screen where you can select where you want to save the file.

Try that it see if it works for you.

Could be one to something with that you know don't know if it was directly for kandice or if she was helping and there's at least on reference in the game about how kindras parents liked greek mythology

In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Artemis (/ˈɑːrtɪmɪs/; Ancient Greek: Ἄρτεμις) is the goddess of the hunt, the wilderness, wild animals, transitions, nature, vegetation, childbirth, care of children, and chastity.[1][2] In later times, she was identified with Selene, the personification of the Moon.[3] She was often said to roam the forests and mountains, attended by her entourage of nymphs. The goddess Diana is her Roman equivalent

But that's all I've got haha
And ORION (latest version of HUNTER) was her hunting companion and lover...

Im genuinely pushing around 60-70 playthroughs of that one, and around 15 of Artemis.

I'll tend to blind playthrough it properly the first time, then for specific paths after the fact, I use the skip feature through 90% of the game and only stop for the stuff for that one specific girl, in the case of Artemis, if I'm doing a Zelda run, I'll skip everything apart from when Zelda is on screen

I was lucky with Artemis....had no idea it was being worked on. Saw it on steam
when it came out{full season\book1} and picked it up. I'm ashamed by had many times
I've replayed it lol! There's like about ten AVN's I can replay over and over again.

There are others I find enjoyable but not like the top 10 on my list.
Sadly every good 1 that drops.....there are 50 or more that are junk!:whistle:

Ufff hahaha I wish I had the time for that but I have not and I play too many AVNs and other kind of games also so for Artemis I have 2 playthrough saves that enables me to see most content, at least what I want to see and that is also why I always use URM, sometimes exclusive game mods and PDF WTs haha. There is other games where I have more, one easy to remember is the popular one on this site where I have like 7 or 8 saves hehe.
