My personal take:

moaning sounds are a boner killer in any VN I played so far. They just sound artificial and don’t fit the voice I had in my head for certain characters. One of the reason I always deactivate music/sounds as soon as I start a VN.
Also don't like moaning sounds - they mostly sound fake af.
Since we are on the topic of sex sounds. I like sex sounds but I do dislike moaning
I like moans and the faker they sound the better. Brings me back to my teenage years watching hentai on redtube and it totally helps me get off faster and easier too. Even just the default Illusion moaning sounds are peak.
The moaning sound during the Amber scene is actually from a real person, and it's not like you can estimate the voice clearly from it imo, but I do understand that it's not for everybody. So maybe an extra slider in the options menu for "voice/moaning" sounds which can be turned down without loosing the other sounds like the normal sex sounds?

Since they're people who like them and others who don't this might be the best option.

I like that idea actually because I will leave sex sounds on even if I dont like moaning but if it is just moaning I will turn my volume pretty low down / mute then un mute after the lewd scene

Good idea.

I normally don't like moaning or other sex sounds either, but I'm playing another AVN right now, and the dev actually managed to match the displayed text to the moans, even the number of them and when they're displayed. It's the first time I've actually appreciated having them in scenes. It's the same moan across different LIs, but there's more than just one sound as well: a moan, a surprised "ooh", and a bunch of others that are pretty well used throughout.

I think if it's done tastefully & skillfully, it can actually add to the experience. I wouldn't have said that before playing that AVN.

I probably won't add moaning sounds to the earlier scenes for now, it's something I tested in 0.2 and you're the only person who reported back on this yet :)
An early reviewer made a comment on it, and I noticed the difference between earlier & the newer scene w/ Amber. I feel it's executed very well there and definitely adds to the immersion/feel.

I have other plans for Raven currently, there are obviously not fix at the current point of the game, don't expect any content with her, I don't have the time to make a whole other branch with her. That said, you never know what the future hold up.
I figured as much, and I surely wouldn't have expected a branch for her :) O/c no idea how the story will unfold, and how/whether the strip club will play a role as a location, but +1 from me for some possible (one off) sexy time w/ Raven! :D

Thanks, and hope ur doing okay!

May I ask which title you are talking about here?

Another member asked on my profile, I answered them there with a link (to avoid talking about AVNs outside of their topics). I also just reviewed it, in case you take a look at my review list. :coffee:

The Incest-Patch does not really make sense IMO. It is unofficial and the game is not intended to have Incest.
Ahh y i know, every inc-patch is basicially just a rewriting of some conversation. I just want to know if the lewd scenes are optional or forced in general. Sry for the dumb formulation.

Sounds good, I added the moan during a scene where you can't see the face so it makes sense imo. But in the future I'll see how to integrate them into a scene.

Nothing is forced, you can go through the game without having any sexual scene at all.

Very nice, im glad i picked this one. The models are pretty amazing, seems like the Dev is really into HS2 CC. The story is catchy as fck, i really like to know where this is going. If the Dev is keeping it up like that, i have no doubt to see the title in my top10.
Also always a pleasure to see little cute Annie, even if its just her back.
Thanks for the good work (y)

Why there always need to be prostitutes (robot?) and strippers in every game :FacePalm:.
Good that it was at least avoidable but felt like a huge waste of time to play that segment, hope we go back to the numerous LI already in the game and that barely have any content.
Most slow burn AVNs (like this one) normally make use of those kind of characters to offer action for the player while the real deal gets character development and gradual intimacy with the MC.

I get a feeling it's going to be somewhat important to plot of the game later after more updates not just pointless sex. As to me it feels like it's subtlety showing some shady shit going on within the world by using those. But yeah could of used it in another way instead. But it's hard to say cause it's early on and my gut tells me there are going to be used for far more than sex and a way to show some shady shit going on. Like it's going to be a actual plotline

Hello Pandalorians!

Over the past two weeks, I've been able to make some good progress on the game. I’ve finished planning all the scenes for this release and have even started a little bit of the initial writing!

I accounted the first 20% in Plan & Write for the planning of the scenes whereas the remaining 80% will be dedicated to writing, so there’s still a lot of work ahead.

I also want to update you on some personal matters. As I mentioned two months ago (crazy, it's been two month already...), I'm dealing with some responsibilities related to the passing of a family member. This will likely keep me busy until early next year, so please be aware of potential delays. Despite this, I am committed to making steady progress on the game, as you’ll see in the upcoming status reports! :)

This is all for today, I wish you all a very nice new week! <3

Code:
$ currentYear = Date.getCurrentYear() + timeDifference - 2023
    mc.think "I'm not into AI stuff, but she's been into it ever since they went mainstream roughly [currentYear] years ago."
Call me weirdo, but I'd already stick around and watchlist this for seeing a detail like that.
