What I mean, you obtuse forum troll, is that I can skip the majority of the dialogue and not miss any of the plot, therefore the key gets a workout. I won't respond to you anymore as it looks like you're just trying to be aggressive and start arguments.
So you're the one being openly rude and I'm the one being aggressive? Anyway, goodbye, dude.

A very long wait for this update and something feels different. For the first time since playing this game I started fast clicking through text, and ultimately hitting the control key - not a good sign. The only thing that held my interest was the interaction with Fleur. Most of the dialogue felt pointless... am I the only one feeling this?
I love this avn but i kinda agree about this update.

For me it was a bit too much of focus on "how to manage your completly unreasonable and lazy employes" and felt almost a bit too comical (without being funny) and not realistic.

There would have been better ways for Elsa to teach Edward to become better at solcialising and building a team than the way it was displayed imo. It was just kinda annoying and over the top useless moron workmates and a lot of time focused on it.

Man, I really wish you could... But I don't see the way how you'll survive this build up.
This nasty dev made a helter-skelter of writing, overcomplexified everythings for no reason. Talking ego, Elsa, who only makes fun of MC and criticizes, but hasn't even shown a tit once, poor man chasing the princess, all this bullshit. He should have stuck to the classic, time-tested build up: "Hey, step-brother, I'm stuck in the washing machine, can you help me?"
It's unfortunate that you think a "cheap" porno plot is inherently inferior as literature to a "story-driven adult gaming experience" that doesn't have the balls to be what it really is. The most endearing and revolutionary works in the western canon are basically cheap porno stories that revel in grossness, absurdity and the belittling of "overcomplexified everythings".

Ferondo, having swallowed a certain powder, is entombed for dead and being taken forth of the sepulchre by the abbot, who enjoyeth his wife the while, is put in prison and given to believe that he is in purgatory; after which, being raised up again, he reareth for his own a child begotten of the abbot on his wife. - Decameron 3:8

Bro, c'mon, you don't expect a modern Boccaccio to start making AVNs? Still, without downplaying the talent of the AVN developers, I don't think most of them are experienced screenwriters or novelists.

Finding something that goes beyond "My dad is dead and I moved in with his milfy friend and her daughters to molest them in the sleep" is already a big success. At least I find the dialogues in this game quite entertaining, and the constant bickering between Ed and Elsa is the best part.

Somehow, yeah, don't laught, the dialogue here bring me a sort of Guy Ritchie's vibes. And of course, I see this game basically as a comedy, albeit a dark one, with the absurdities, awkward moments and downright stupidities typical to the genre.

How long between updates again? I'd wager the dev having only 95 patrons has more to do with the slow update cycle than anything else. I like the game but it's one I don't pay that much attention to because it doesn't update enough to pay attention to it.
That's the opposite, bro. I guess this is what people mean when they say: "put the cart before the horse".

It doesn't take much thought to understand that the market for these games is crowded and anyone making a game will be competing against other games. If you only update once a year then that is on you and not the potential patrons.
Where have you been in the last 4 years? this game had 20-30 patrons when it was being updated every 3 months.



I know people are complaining about the lack of sex scenes. But when you get as old as me and dipped into just about every fetish and type of porn you can imagine, the ease of it all means that random sex scenes up front are just boring. Much prefer build up and elaborate flirting instead.

For example that scene between Edward and Fleur near the end of this release was probably hotter than 90% of the sex scenes I've seen in all the AVNs on this board. People grossly underestimate how much the chase is better than the catch sometimes. Though I'm extremely perplexed because I thought Zoe liked Edward, and Fleur is just being friendly. The way she went off with Matt leaving him alone with Fleur gave me a bit of whiplash.

I'm still holding up hope that this protagonist can be saved and that he's slowly learning the skills he needs to will himself to power and have a good quality woman on his arm as well. It just may not be alice. It could be Elsa, Fleur, Zoe... even Vicky... all really good choices. Anyone of them better than his neighbor.
About Zoe: she gave up on Edward when Adam and Matt invited them to the movies and he refused and stayed with Elsa at the office.

There are modern Boccaccios making AVNs that are not "story-driven" but nevertheless more funny and engaging and sexy than the latter. You disagree? That's fine, but kindly dispense with the superciliousness about liking good stories.

Finding something that goes beyond "My dad is dead and I moved in with his milfy friend and her daughters to molest them in the sleep" is already a big success.
No it's not. It's an arbitrary value judgment based on the number of words separating h-scenes. You've a right to disagree, but not to use the equivocation of large quantities of words and great literature as an excuse for calling ppl stupid. Bye bye.

The scene where Elsa and Edward pushing sugar to to each other made me wanna support the dev on patreon even though i live in a 3rd world country with a currency losing it's value against dolar everyday.
Don't tell me you're from Myanmar. If so, you have a fellow countryman here.

At this point I would read the full story without visuals tbh. The visuals aren't bad, I like the models, but development isn't going to go faster anytime soon.
There was a dev making his vn that way because he had no money for the art, later in development he started to add art.
Maybe some patron can sugest it to sqwl.

Can't do, I'm a simple man. Good stories I like, bad stories I don't like.
Anyway, you've already said goodbye, I don't dare keep you more.
Just like everyone else. Associating that with ten thousand verses of mommy dommy waifus paraphrasing sigma male tiktoks - in opposition to the idea that a porno game should feature a lot of sex - is what makes you special. Oh I know, it's a work of literature not porn. Sure, could be. But it's only a very loud minority on this website that believes this determination is premissed on the number of words.

If only, but I'm not that special, unfortunately. Many people like the kind of games like Corporate Culture. And they don't like just a meaningless porn pretending to be adult visual novels.

Your assertion that I think a good story depends on the number of words is just a weird fantasy of yours that you somehow project onto me. However, I don't mind, project it to your heart's content.

I am surprised that, there aren't any theories here, which suggest that Jenny did not actually cheat. I was playing the game again from the beginning today and that was certainly my impression. asked myself how i missed it.
"I didn't know how He turned my sweet Jenny into a cheating slut. I still don't. And it bothers me."
So you think He was just helping her stretch for yoga? :BootyTime:
Although in the picture Jenny looks rather happy, seeing that MC caught them, as if she is glad that he came back. If he caught them cheating, she probably should have looked scared or embarrassed. But it is weird that she did not understand how it looks from the outside.

But that's the distinction you keep making though. Story and dialogues without much sex, or sex without story. And appreciation of the story seems to hinge on how extensively certain fantasies play out within the story rather than quality. Hence, the number of words. Not that there's anything wrong with enjoying that on its own terms, without needing to give it value by disparaging other porn games. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
