VN Ren'Py College of Mysteria [v0.11.1] [HappySteveGames]

After a bit of time to think about it:

I'll say it, I'm kind of done with Eustice. He served his role, but now he's just sort of the sharing partner and it's a bit stale. Problem is, to introduce someone else, it'll take multiple updates to build it up, unless Cindy just starts randomly hooking up with strangers/people who haven't remotely been considered before.

Combined with the addition of that extra 'sharing whenever he wants' branch, and I'm a bit concerned how long this is going to drag out.

I understand the concern about things getting stale, but honestly, it would be a shame to just discard it after how carefully and gradually the devs built the relationship between both couples. There are plenty of ways to spice things up by expanding on tags that already exist in the game, like exhibitionism, pet play, or voyeurism. It feels like both couples are finally reaching their full potential. On a personal level, it would also be disappointing for players like me who really enjoy a well-written swinging dynamic.
As for adding more characters, I think it would be a missed opportunity not to do something with the fox mom (obviously within the NTS route, harem players can enjoy their own paths). The island chief and Zani (if I remember her name correctly) could also return. Honestly, I always felt they would make a perfect second swinging couple for the game

I get you and I want as many as possible to have their dynamics. That said, this is not currently a healthy swinging couple set for me. The last question pushes on half of the dynamic forward onto a different level. It moved a swing to a share, and those are not the same things. But you have the choice of it so I am not really upset on it from that stand point, I just will not actively play it. I have a run through that I use for completionist reasons so that I can talk about all aspects of the game and that is where I will put the whole "Share me equally with Eustice" branch. My stance differs on it from a game development point which I have stated previously to some extent. I do not feel it worth the bloat to make Eustice and the MC "even" for Cindy, while Monique is somehow lost in this shuffle, and the main couple are already on reduced screen time. My thoughts on how this seemed such a departure from Cindy's normal behavior is also well stated previously.

It feels like there was a timegap between this update and the previous one. Girls has slightly changed, scenes is not as good as they were before... I'm not complaining tho just noticing

The VN is currently undergoing some changes do to AI iterations per the Dev. We will hopefully be close to the final character state soon. Also the animation work has improved but that might also change the look and feel of said characters as well during those moments.

You know what? Fair, I can see your worries and agree in some of them, I just disagree about Monique being lost at least until the last update I'd agree, , It was hilariously terrible how If you chose to share Cindy during the 1st dungeon, they just forget about her lol, but right now, It's looks like she's going to be a major focus for the next plot point and she got a lot of screen-time during the last swinging scene at least compared to before. And don't worry I know that sharing and swinging aren't the same It's one of my main complains about how the swinging tag works here.

Eustice is the only dude in the game I want to share Cindy with...
Cindy is hands off to any other dude.

We'll hardly ever see that since you have the choice of keeping it only for special occasions or much more often. Eustice, for me, has to continue, and that's what we'll see, only now we'll see other guys.
Dev has already shown that he will be important to the story, not just in the sexual aspect.

I know, I like Eustice as a character, I was just talking about the swinging content here.

Funny, I used to think that way, and I still only think about him, but I've started to like the idea of sharing her with other guys, one of them being the elf.

Unfortunately, we don't have many options for partner swapping.
After Eustice comes Tailor.
The only one I can think of for a good scene.

Haven't seen him since that party though...
So, yeah, I kind of forgot about the elf...
I'd say, solid maybe if he makes it back into the story.
But he better bring some smoking hot elf chicks for MC to bang in exchange for fun with Cindy...

I completely forgot about him lol he was cool.

Gotcha. I guess I should better state that in the current relationship dynamics she is lost. The focus of the NTS branch is on Cindy and her male partners...partner. That choice had no impact on Monique and no consideration of her place in this...whatever it is. We shall see if the tail stuff leads but that felt separate to the stuff above to me.

The Island couple or Joe and the elf librarian are good options to me. Also, when was the last time the Tailor appeared? lol I don't think even his wife care about him.

Like I sad before the last swinging scene I would agree. To me It was a big improvement overall ^^/

It's sad that after the party we didn't hear anything more from him.
It doesn't even need to be explored that much, just a few casual events with her. I hope he shows up again. I liked the elf; the guy is a good person. If I'm not mistaken, he warns us to be careful with Jeff around Cindy. LOL

Now you're speaking my language, he could bring some over or introduce us to one of his sisters or his mother.

I'm prety sure he prefer to just watch lol

Cool deal then. I always like hearing from the other side on these things. Fun to debate and consider other thoughts. I think Monique was involved physically in this scene. But the promises of the dynamic moving forward exclude her as an equal member since the focus is Eustice/Cindy and the MC is well, the MC.
