I recommend you skip this update

you won't feel the same way I feel
I have prepared everything all my 5 path saves are ready to go but i just can't decide to go on with it. I was fearing exactly what you describe, a huge freeroam shit party with idiotic halloween content and not much progress in the main story.
I have the feeling that DPC has a big problem, he doesn't have much story content left to tell and starts to make things last as long as possible to milk this game to the max.
We already have seen this with Interlude and now from what i read here we just have that party with this annoying freeroam where you need to find the right drink for the right girl, talk to this one in this room to trigger an event and so on.
I think DPC should just have add a big button in the menu : Skip the party : YES - NO.

Actually he should have made this version a DLC or a separate one , this party is a waste of time , not really fond of this costume sex and what I want to see is story progression

In my opinion, the main drawback of the episode, no matter how banal it sounds, is a long time of development. Nothing has hurt the game so much as a long wait, hundreds of thousands of lines of theories and player fatigue.
Therefore, DPC was faced mainly with a cool response and not such a large increase in subscribers to the patreon as it was after episode 8. In order for this episode to work, he needs to release episode 10 as soon as possible, and preferably in the summer. At least there are several reasons to think so:
1) he stopped making custom renders and, according to him, saved 10% of the time
2) in episode 10 there will be fewer freeroams that devoured most of the development due to complex code and complex renders with a large number of objects in the scene.
I would be very, very surprised if episode 10 comes out again in the fall, because there are no objective reasons for this.
With the planning mechanic it could be argued free roam parties will be a constant

Too late. The damage is done.

Don't expect anything from this game and from DrPinkCake anymore: he won't change anything.

What's worse is that the story is slowly going south. Honestly, my interest in this game has almost totally vanished.

Am I supposed to wait 1 more year because the Dude really wants to show us a couple of totally unnecessary animation intros? hidden bonus pictures and quite a few scenes with totally and unnecessary side characters? new music app? a new puzzle game in MC's phone? is DrPinkCake for real?

Man, we waited for 1 year for a story which is moving forward with a crappy nonsensical plot development at snail's pace.

fair points all around. but if he cant keep his own ideas focused on the end game, each episode will be bigger and more bloated than the one before it. and the bigger and more complex each episode is, the higher chance that a larger number of people will experience something to find fault in/criticize/be upset about.

the story and characters are core to this game's popularity and success. i dont think that is debatable, tbh. and if he keeps stalling the story and limiting character arcs/interaction, then over time more and more people will be dissatisfied. nobody boots this game up ONLY for the free roams and mini-games and random animations outside of the lewd stuff. those are merely extra things and should not be such a major focus for him, IMO
I think he cut out some of the content from Episode 9 so as not to overwhelm the game. It's really strange that there are no dorm girls scenes. Although the episode is called Vixens. So I think he understands it.
As for the long beautiful animations that are not related to the story - many do this, for example Ocean. By the way, this animation with Bella's door is most likely a teaser for the next episodes (I haven't completed Bella route yet, I'm just going to today)

Plot Hole Alert!

So it's a pretty major plot hole when Sage says she doesn't like Jill because she thinks Jill is Tybalt's lover. The problem is that there is pretty reasonable evidence that Sage/Tyballs knows this isn't true based on Rooster posts earlier in the game.

Note this doesn't even include other Rooster posts where Tybalt is clearly being put down/rejected/ignored by Jill and Isabella, and while Sage or Tyballs does not appear in those tweet threads, in all likelihood Sage is stalking Tybalt's social media enough to have seen them. This is not even counting the fact that Sage most of all should be aware that her pathetic brother does not, in fact, have any girlfriend/lover, let alone Jill.
