Good game, standout among the HTML ones, but my god these character paths are cryptic. Even with dozens of saves I still can't get many of the choices or scenes, and there really aren't any clues for them aside from searching through the messages here.
Ava's first two scenes cannot be avoided, just like every scene that begins MC's relationship with any of the main characters. But I don't think Ava is in control. It's just a roleplay for them. Still, the threesome scene is avoidable. You just need to have low lust with either of the two. If you had low lust with Ava, for example, you wouldn't have seen the threesome scene. And since MC and Ava's relationship has already begun, almost all of her scenes from now on will be avoidable, just like with any main character. Just avoid choices that generate a lot of stats, avoid giving gifts, and choose alternative options when they arise, and you will hardly see scenes with characters that you don't like.
Many scenes, options, and routes are corruption-exclusive. But there are also noncorruption-exclusive scenes and choices. There's no better route. Choose what you like most.
I'm also ok with the last comments.
The game is really good for an HTML Real Porn game. But since a few update, it's hard to understand the plot and the possibilities.
If you want to unlock all the content, you need to replay a lot to try different things. Also, when the game shows the orange button with "You could see something different here if you did a different choice in the story before":
We have no clue what we needed to do, it doesn't push me to replay the game to tryhard to find the right path (because your game is quite big now and it could take a lot of time.)
It's good to have different paths/exclusive paths, but if you do this, at least you should give the player more hints, or a possibility to rollback if he wants to play a missed scene.

It honestly doesn't feel like role-playing, though. Many of the MC's thoughts during scenes with her are focussed around being unable to resist her.
Regardless, role-playing or not, the way Megan just submits to Ava as if its nothing is jarring. Does she even care if the MC minds her doing that? Personally, if I were involved with multiple woman, I would be fine if they had some fun with each other, even if I wasn't there, but I would at least want them to tell me. Otherwise it feels like a betrayal, to be honest. (Lets not get into hypocrisy considering the MC actions in that regard lol)
Where is the line with Megan? Who can simply make her submit and have them do whatever they want with her? That's what I ask myself when I see a scene like that.
Also, it feels wrong that you have to basically ignore someone as if you hate them in order not to have sex with them. Why can't the MC just visit Ava and bring gifts because she is his mother-in-law? I would really like the option to just refuse a relationship with someone right from the start. Is Ava having had sex with the MC at least once really that important to the story?
Anyway, those are just my opinions.
I really do enjoy the game for the most part, even the mini games that many people seem to complain about. Just everything to do with Ava feels wrong to me.
I understand what you mean. Your feedback is completely valid and many players are asking for a more accurate hint system. But I already explained why I haven't done such a thing yet. Some scenes depend on multiple factors to happen. Stuffing so much information into a small tooltip doesn't seem like a good design to me. Also, given the size of the current game, adding specific tooltips for each part of the game is not an easy job and that's another reason why I chose more generic information in the tooltip. But I may try to add something a little more specific in a future update. At this point in development, I have to evaluate how much time it is worth investing in changing something already implemented. But I will keep it in mind for the future.
The first scenes of each main character are necessary so that I don't have to track which character the MC is in a relationship with. It's a choice I made from the beginning to make it easier to tell the story. If I gave the player the possibility to choose who to relate to, I simply wouldn't be able to tell the story the way I wanted. For each character, I thought of an individual plot that only makes sense (most of the time) if the player has a relationship with them. Once the relationship starts, I no longer need to worry about it, and the player can avoid most of the scenes. It's a design choice that allows me to focus on more important aspects of the story.
That's fair, and you certainly should make the game the way you want it to be.
Just be careful you don't design a characters story a certain way and then have to fit the MC's personality around that story. Because that's kind of what it feels like, to me, when the MC is with Ava. It's like he's a different person with her than with the others. I might be alone in this, though.
Anyway, maybe if only the first one or two scenes matter, perhaps you could make an option or something that allows the player to 'turn off' a character? The option wouldn't have to do more then increase the love/lust requirements for scenes with those characters to impossible levels. That way, the player doesn't have to worry about actively avoiding gaining points, so they can at least be a nice person to them.
I don’t mind Ava’s presence, though I will admit she’s not exactly my favourite of the girls.

I must have missed quiet a few updates, Bald Games - this update felt chock full of content. Not that I am complaining.
I really like how you have a good harem and a bad one that responds to your morality system.
Blanche is the direct opposite of Alexis here - one that is virtuous woman trapped in a loveless marriage with a naughty daughter and the other is a debaucherous woman trapped in pleasureless marriage with an angelic daughter. Blanche storyline introduces Striker and Alexis storyline (which is Mr. Reed storyline) introduces Kat(? I forgot her name
).
In the midst of all this, we have the chance to amalgamate the family bringing Ava and Adrianna into the fold. Exciting times.
I have a few questions :
1) where does Kelsi, Jillian, Jessa and Jynx fit into all this? (Kelsi and Jynx have both professed their love for MC)
2) where is MC's family in all this? they aren't mentioned at all !
3) is Emily the replacement for Jason or is she the dark equivalent of Jason?
4) is there going to be a final decision where we choose the final members of the harem? or is this my imagination? (I feel like the game is heading towards a pretty big decision for the MC - does he stick to his job or does he take over as a crime lord?).
I understand you may not be able to answer these questions for a variety of reasons. I am just excited for the next release!
Thanks for reading through all of this!

I like this game. I played game multiple times with very different choices but still can't get some scenes. Is it possible to add tips for scenes in gallery? You click on scene you didn't unlock and there is a tip what is required.

Thanks. I'm glad you like the game. It's good to have positive feedback now and then to offset some energetic complaints. This helps me to have peace of mind and know that, despite some complaints, I am doing a good job.I must have missed quiet a few updates, Bald Games - this update felt chock full of content.

I will try to answer your questions as best as I can.
1 - Kelsi, Jillian, and Jessa have stories a little separate from the main story, although their involvement in the future is not ruled out. As for Jynx, she is a side character and will not play a major role in the story, like most side characters. To make this better explained, side characters are those that do not have their own gallery and are in the "others" gallery. They are chars that complement the cast and the story but without much involvement in the MC's life.
2 - MC's past life is not fully explained, but some points can be deduced in some parts of the game. In conversations with Ava and Angela, you can conclude that MC and Angela met when they were teenagers. For some reason, MC no longer had parents at that time, and Ava was like a second mother to him. Angela's family may be the only family MC has ever had. Maybe I'll talk more about this in a future version when Angela finally finds out about all the perversions MC is involved in.
3 - Emily would never be a replacement for Jason. Jason was developed to be the best friend, which Emily will never be. But I have plans for Emily and Jason to work together at some point in the story. Of course, this can still change. This is how my creative process works. Some new ideas emerge, and others are discarded along the way.
4 - You guessed some things right. What will dictate the final choices will be the stats and decisions made along the way. You will only be able to take Reed's place on the corruption route. On the non-corruption route, you might be able to become Blanche's partner.
As for the Harem, it will also depend on choices. Example: Did you accept Adriana as a second wife and declare your love for her? Will Angela forgive you when she finds out about everything? Have Ava and Adriana truly reconciled, or is Adriana just pretending to forgive her mother for MC? This and many other choices will impact the end of the game.
Tips in the gallery are not in the plans, but maybe I will improve the in-game tips system at some point.
