I'm new, how do I start episode 2? After episode 1 the game says 'that's the end of this game version, please save' and I can't play episode 2. I tried doing the commands that are in the previous comments but they didn't work for me.

My favourite scene in the game so far is when you console Nora in her hotel room

I know this game is designed for the mc to pretty much fuck everything.
But I'm doing a Nora exclusive route
She is my favourite girl by far
Nora used to be my #1, then you try the Penelope route :cool:

Literal perfection, attractive as hell, smart, kind, but not in the snarky popular kids group. Penelope's the kind of girl you want to marry in real life.

I kinda feel that way about Riley.
but I've always been a sucker for smart cute nerdy girls and especially red heads.

Its a shame really that the story hasn't included as much 1 on 1 with her over the last few updates. A lot of Nora (obviously if on that route), Penelope with the dog, and the video game, and Aubrey with her hang-up/rival of her sister and help in getting her modeling career launched and even alot with Amber in doing the investigations. Just not enough with Riley.

I loved the time I spent with Riley in Europe doing the treasure hunt - want more "dating" option with pursuing a Riley path. But that's just me. In absence of that, I have truly enjoyed the Aubrey path as an endearing story and do really like her chutzpah and

Was that all people hated or were there other parts which he plans to rework ?

I'm by no means a fan of the Amber detective play, wouldn't say i hated it thought, just feels pointless...especialy the second one about the frats.
I very much liked the Amber detective bits. I think it's the kind of quirky cute interactions that give her a very unique flavor and style to all the others - vs the usual trapping of games where it's just a harem of indistinguishable LIs.

But I'm also a roleplay at heart - love me some dice RPGs and so this really struck a chord with me and endeared me to her - Im on the route of sobering her up and building her up - so it plays nicely with giving her some purpose and direction to help cope with her recovery and sobriety.

For anyone who played this, what is the general consensus for the game? I heard some people say Act's 2 writing took a massive dip but I kinda wanna know what everyone here thinks

Started off strong then really petered out.

My biggest issue with it right now is all due to Act II. I know that the OG writer is going back and revising everything (which is definitely needed) but it's been a whole string of underwhelming releases that he may not be able to get back on track.

Biggest problem is how out-of-character the girls become seemingly out of nowhere: personalities completely change just to have a sex scene (and they're barely OK and short to boot.) Each release is also really buggy which is irritating.

yep same problem for me but i would say the Character inconsitence startet in act 1dlcs first (Cloe is all about image and then fucks you in a street alley is bad,aubrey start as a carefree fuckbuddie but then becomes a i wantyou to marry me wich i know that people like more but its still inconsitence.I could go on with other characters but there are ohter important problems)
Next thing is the story is also inconsitent and lastly undergrad steve probably took andrew tates hustleruniversety because rushing out dlcs new games but does not look at the quality or consistence (different writers to pump out projects faster) than does say that hes sorry and will not repete the mistake and contineuse to make it 5 times and repetes every time that hes sorry and will never make this mistake agian(LoL) after the last relases of Act 2 and his new Game it looks like he sees that he finally understands that unhappy people are not buying his games and the ones that bough them are review bombing them because they are low quality so now he puts work in where it always should has been for me personly i am not buying anything from him because i have lost trust and only thing to gain trust back is being better,consistend and time.
Yah that pretty much sums it up without going in details of caracters storys and so on

Has the dev made any announcement about this? Are there any plans to rewrite a substantial part of the plot to make it more interesting or not? And if so, how much? I think it's a shame that, after a good start with a few interesting ideas, the overall plot really goes to pot at the start of season 2.

Not only do the characters develop inconsistent or incoherent personalities, let's say, but all the ideas nested here and there to make the story evolve are abandoned; like the fighting and reputation system within the school, the rivalries between fraternities or between individuals, the hero's personal difficulties with his past/or his father, the intimate dramas or secrets of love interests, etc.

I really get the impression that the dev has no idea what he's doing with his story any more, and is simply content to deliver renderings or scenes without any substance to satisfy his audience, or allow himself to continue making money. And it's a real shame to waste all that...

I'd like to think there's still a chance to salvage the potential that was there in the first place. Let's wish him the best of luck and hope he gets back on track.

It's on his Discord. He says that he's re-working episode two before releasing the next installment.

While I agree with most of what you say here, I do disagree with your characterizations of Aubrey suddenly changing lanes.
There was quite a bit of hesitance and concern on her end of being honest about not wanting to date, etc - enjoying the friend and fuckbuddy zone.

Eventually she softens up if you play your cards correctly and coax her into a relationship. But I would not characterize this shift as a out of thin air sudden lane change.

The first game/season/Act started really good, got a little boring in the middle but became really good in the end again. But CK2 have had some problems, much because they let the new writers intrepid the characters the way they wanted, that the creator of the game gave them too much freedom but also that they listen too much to Patreons who want more kinky sex and to the people who dislike some of the characters. Some of the characters changed, especially Lauren who used to be my favourite. The original writer has returned now and is remaking Episode 2 (the new writers who originally wrote Episode 2 quit after the massive backlash) so hopefully he will fix the biggest problems there.
It's definitely worth playing, and hopefully the remake of Episode 2 that will come this summer will be good.

Well, the first releasee is pretty much a Beta release, and they really should start calling it that. They use the community to help find and fix bugs. The problem is, the bugfixes rarely get uploaded here (the latest version is 3.1.11, that's 3 missing updates).
The upside is, you can go into the Discord and report bugs and they will fix it, even if you play a pirated version. And they never stop fixing bugs. They still regularly update CK1 to fix bugs that have been reported. It's very rare that Devs continue to fix bugs after moving on.

Well i did not mean out of thin air but she got more character moments and was written with greater care then other characters while others did not get more charcterization we meet her siter who is a model we meet her parents and uncle we find out she is negelected by her parents her sister is their favorit and so forward.This is more a problem for people that have a favorite girl that is not Aubrey maybe undergrad steve will give the other girls more charcterization but Aubrey feels like top girl for now

You raised one of the more frustrating points about this game. I tried the Aubrey path, was able to achieve BF/GF status with her, and it all went away in Chap 2. I wonder if same happens with other potential LIs.
