His goal is to complete the game. Most will come after original ended. This version will not branch into so many dead-end paths, instead they will all be in one main path. Sure there will be more than one path, like with Eric, but it will come back together, after Eric is gone. We may branch again at some point, but it will tie back in to main path always.
my five cents: a new dev like him, with little-to-no experience in code, he should not branch too much, but keep it real simple at first. Don't try to please everyone, pick your audience and develop your game mid center around that particular crowd's kink, disregarding the howling from the others.. Point is, that otherwise you reduce the gameplay for everyone: no matter if you love/hate Eric, a big part of the game is then on the other side of your kink. If you hate Eric, all the time the Dev spent on his scenes are a total waste, and vice versa. and that makes your - perceived - update smaller, cos you only wish to play half to it.
You are completely right.
Yeah, I think that's what he has in mind, when we get to were original ended. Then Aleksey will start his game (another story) he had that plan from the start. But he decided to start over, so he could set up for it, instead of having all those go nowhere paths to work with. Eric will end in this version, but challenges will not. There will still be other men in this game. NTR will be up to the player, but all will be challenged, Olivia's boyfriend, the delivery guy, maybe someone at the massage parlor (0.07 update). There will always be challenges to Max. Keeping your influence high, will be key to the game. If you like NTR then there will be more chances after Eric, if not then work (influence) to prevent it. It's up to the player.
Just want to re-iterate in case some people are mislead by your wording. Eric's content wont end this update, from what I have read on Patreon, the dev said that Eric's content will continue but players have the option to get rid of him in the story and in doing so they will miss out on alot of potential content in the future involving him, so best keep multiple saves at the least, never know what Aleksey has planned for the future.
Yeah, sorry about that, your right the best path is the extended path(friend or enemy) with Eric. My point was that end of Eric, will not be end of challenge, or potential NTR.
As an alien, I would say, the future is best, left in the future. But I share your desire to have it all now. Thing about the future is, we never know how much we have left.
I guess this update will be the best ever. I'll be the Patron at the end of the month.
As a time traveler, I have to agree... Unless what you leave in the future is the back up battery for your time machine, and you use up the charge on the primary, and now you're stuck in this awful, backwards, primitive world.... Stupid, stupid, stupid... I could have sworn I put that fucking battery in the luggage... You people don't even have the materials to build a crude quantum battery that elementary school children learn to build in my time, let alone the matter/anti-matter battery necessary for the time....
I mentioned the other day in my money guide that I had thought there was a drop in money for more cameras. I think that the MAIN thing for making money is that MAX is in a camera room when the HOUR changes. Yes, if there are more people than Max (Alice movie/Tv watching) the amount increases. The problem is that more cameras seems to make ALL amounts go DOWN. So as I said in my guide, do NOT buy cameras unless you NEED them (or you have INSANE money).
I don't know if I want the camera and money to be fixed, because I worry that the early game BIG money will disappear.Yeah I think there's probably two issues with the way it works right now. One is that I think you're right that it puts too much weight on whether Max is in the room or not. Most people who might pay for these cams would be guys. They want to see the girls, not Max. The second issue is that I think you're right about them reducing the amount that all cameras can make every time you buy an additional one. That makes no sense at all.I mentioned the other day in my money guide that I had thought there was a drop in money for more cameras.

TY for the tests, I'm to LAZY to bother.
Just a thought.

As I said before.. I'm to LAZY to do tests, but I think that the drop in money is more about the viewers you have. Because of this, when MAX is not in a room the viewer count (and money) drops. With extra cameras the viewers are spread out and DROP in areas that Max is NOT more quickly than you gain them in the room that Max IS. Because of this you end up with fewer TOTAL viewers at the end of the day, plus I think that NO viewers get added during SLEEP.

I don't know how this might be fixed. Also, I fear that any fix could mess up the early single camera benefit. Thus I say that if someone WANTS a second camera they should put it in the POOL area. This gives the best viewer count because you can spend time with one of the ladies for a boost (Alice during the day, Lisa in the afternoon, and Kira (when she arrives) in the early morning). After the second camera choosing where to place the third (and later others) gets more tricky. I recommend the LAST cameras be placed in the BATHROOM then the PATIO(eating area). Those to seem to be the worst paying cameras (at this time). The Bedrooms don't get a lot of use right now, but hopefully will be better later in the game.
So, I recommend NOT buying cameras until you NEED them, then get the pool camera followed by ONLY the cameras for rooms that you need for events/paths/opportunities.
Hope this helps.
