Grinding is fine as long as the result meet expectations and grant some sense of completion and satisfaction. On the other hand, grinding your ass off to be meet with a sad panda face....
THIS! I mean there had better be more than just a static pic at the end of a grind! I'll cite an example of a bad frind in this game. You need to earn money (usually cams) buy Impotency pills, Make sure to talk to Alice so you can use and all you get in the end is the Opportunity to NOT SEE Eric fuck Mom! Grinding to NOT SEE is pretty much counter to the way games are supposed to work.
@Corambis
Do all this before you start a new game and you will have a lot of fun. (If you like this style of game.)
Why not just suggest he use a cheat to make the Eric path easy to deal with?
You do realize how ridiculous a suggestion that was don't you?
The downside to that, is you don't get to access the new content
This is the major point we have all been saying...All Eric does is DENY YOU from getting any content that is not PEEPING on him getting off on your family!
And this is the character that is claimed makes this game SPECIAL?
IF Eric was a choice that rewarded the player perhaps he might be worth dealing with.
Friend would help Max get sexed up...Foe would relegate Max to simply peeping, Perhaps Eric would not get the grief he does. But as it stands all Eric seems to do is Cock Block and deny the player a ton of content that isn't available until you get rid of him.
