Sad that the swinging part of the story looks like it will go unfulfilled. I guess it was just a way to introduce a landlord for an apartment in Seaside. I liked the couple and looked forward to potential interactions. Hyperserver alludes to no future for that path. Alas sidekicks, your potential was there but now you are a passing footnote.
Kicking the sidekicks to the side?

In the last update, a metting with Graham & Olivia is clearly mentioned in some kind of swinger club. And I doubt D & dad will only play Scrabble with them. So at least another swinging scene in the next update it seems.
Obviously you've never been to a swinger's club. ;)

Actually, I've been to a few swinger events and play parties. Maybe the ones I've been to have been relatively tame, but usually (there were a couple of exceptions), at any given moment, most of the people are chatting around the food table, n the common room (also chatting), or in the smoking area (smoking and chatting). A lot of "oral action" at those parties!

You're right, I'm sure the devs will add a Scrabble mini-game for this event.

This just highlights the issue of maintaining 2 viable paths that oppose each other, the D sharing path and the D only path.
How could D and F go to a swingers club on the only D path? I guess they could go there and say "Good Golly I didn't know this was THAT kind of place. We'd better go home a cleanse our relationship with a game of scrabble."

Is side-by-side softest swinging considered sharing? I know some people who just like being in a sexually charged environment with their partner.

I don't know that would be a matter of personal opinion.
IMO being in a swingers club and not changing partners isn't swinging.
I guess D and F could watch what was going on and then have sex.

There is no "IF" - it's confirmed several times that Ch4 will be 100% the last one. Also some minor basic details about different endings are already leaked on our discord.
Besides that, not every fucking minor side-kick counts as "lose end".
Main characters (besides F and Dee of course) are Georgina/Jennifer (both mutually exclussive to each other, and Elena.
All other characters inclussive Martin are just minor sidekicks and it's not even sure whether they will be part in any ending or not.
Well, Martin probably is kind of a major sidekick and i guess he will get his way into one of the endings, but also i guess that he woun't at all play such a big role as some over here still think and/or hope. He is still just a sidekick though.
There's still too many characters to play with which we know little about.
Coco
Self defense instructor what's her name
Elena, I don't know how that's going to work out, her being a doctor.
Jennifer, I don't know how that's going to work out either.
Georgina which I don't even know if she was in this udate and so much more.
The game is just endless with unanswered questions, so a chapter 4 is not going to answer them all.

As i said: not every single character which has been met once, needs to be a fleshed out romancible character.
Some character just appear once and that's it. You should not expect that each character has a romantic route and/or is kept until the end.
Georgina had very big scene in last update, but if you are on Jennifer's path, you will not get Georgina content and vice versa. Those both paths (Georgina and Jennifer) are the only two which are mutually exclusive to each other.

I hope there will be some explanation in the VN why Jennifer and Georgina paths are mutually exclusive.
At this point it seems more logistical than story driven, in that too many characters make it difficult to give them play time.
Georgina brings something to add to D and F's life, as f yet I can't see what Jennifer offers other than being a younger looking character.

The only characters you need an ending for (besides F and D) are Elena, and Georgina/Jennifer. Other characters can turn up in different endings, but you don't need to jam them all in just because they had a few lines in previous parts. For example, I'd like closure on Rachel, but there is no need to follow up on Maria. Olivia would be good, Ruby (while a nice character) doesn't need to be in an ending. Martin, yes, Ryan, not really. He already has an ending in part 3.

What?
No Georgina?
What was the Mod for then?
No wonder it felt like it was missing a big part of the story.
Jennifer being a veterinarian assistant was no big secret or big deal.
Everybody wants a piece of the F and D, they just don't know how to make the time unless they live closer to them.
And let's not forget the bad guy. He promised to make them pay when he gets out of jail.
That and a lot more is missing no matter how small.
And by that I mean the story not the bad guy.
I'm probably right about that as well.

you keep saying they are small/sideline characters but as you can see for a lot of people they are not and since they are quite a few (Grahm and Olivia,Coco,Martin,Rachel,etc) how do you expect them all to get one ending? Mash them all up in one update and thats it? There is so much more we could have find out about them at a slow natural pace but instead we got nothing,now imagine what's gonna happen if/when they wont get a propper ending with their storyline...

You are a Sith. You should be used to pain, cruelty, and disappointment.

Dots considers them small, side characters and it is his story...

You have no idea how right you are and yes you might be right about Dots but if that's true there's gonna be a big storm when the game ends cause i have a feeling a lot of his subs will be pissed off. My prediction after the game ends and the backlash begins he's gonna do 2-3 more endings to try and cover as much ground as possible but we'll wait and see.

You are wrong - MrDots doesnt tell the story how people demand - he tells the story as HE thinks to do. We always told that side characters will not get that huge attention as some want it to be.
This was, is, and will ever be the story of F and Dee (and Elena plus Jennifer/Georgina) - All other characters are MINOR. Some will get more attention (Martin for gods sake), while others are just there for some parts of the story without any fleshed out ending arc.
