She'd have to be 18 for the story to fit:

  • She had the whole argument with her mom about being an adult, and her mom not being able to stop her from living where she lived.
  • Her mom specifically said "well, you're 18 now, soo..."
  • She was allowed to gamble in a casino. There was a whole long scene about it.
  • She's going into college
Well done, good sir! Those are some valid points! :closedeyesmile:

See, that would make sense in a lot of games, where it's pretty clear that they're not 18, they're "18." They're "adults" so that their game doesn't get in trouble; but everything else points to them being much younger.

That's not the case with this game, though. She'd have to be 18 for the story to fit:

  • She had the whole argument with her mom about being an adult, and her mom not being able to stop her from living where she lived.
  • Her mom specifically said "well, you're 18 now, soo..."
  • She was allowed to gamble in a casino. There was a whole long scene about it.
  • She's going into college
It's pretty clear that she is 18. Which is why some of the dialogue just seems so absurd.
Yeah, you make sense, but it could be in a different way too:
• She had the whole argument with her mom about being a big girl now... (words changed to avoid trouble)
• Her mom saying "well, you're a teenager now, not a child..." (words changed to avoid trouble)
• She was allowed to place the tokens on the roulette table with her dad.
• She's going into high school. (words changed to avoid trouble)
• She doesn't really know much about her own body...
• She's discovering about french kiss...
• She thinks it's strange that guys sometimes get an erection...
Well, the good thing is that we can think whatever we want about all of this. If it is alright with you, she is 18, if not, she can be younger. It's up to you!

I had a save exactly at the end of chapter 15, whenever I load it in the new version the game crashes. I tried loading old saves and the same crash happens

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Good point here dude, but it's more realist in this way shame they need to changed words because to avoid trouble.

A followup for Mac users: the "open in Ren'Py" using the Windows download works perfectly. I knew that there was a way to play Windows Ren'Py games on OSX -- I just didn't realize it was so easy!
Tell me more about this - I see no way to "Open in Ren'Py" anywhere! I know I'm probably missing a step, or putting the folder in the wrong place or something... a more clear step-by-step would go miles!!!

the only sound the game has is to confirm save overwrite and to confirm to quit the game

I still think cunnilingus/0.17/ will be before the blowjob/0.18/.Maybe BJ will be even in 0.20/best option for me/.
I don’t understand the speculation over the BJs. D has already stated her intention to go for it “this time tomorrow night” in 0.16. She feels bad she bailed out of it during the titjob. But maybe you guys didn't watch Brown Bunny.

I think I might as well throw some mini-spoilers since I am here and the countdown has started. :)

Here is the second of some posts I logged over at Patreon. While these are not guarantees of what is to happen, they are some good quality ideas which get consideration:

2017 Wrap-Up - Georgina

Here are some year end thoughts regarding the female characters in the story, continuing with Georgina. Part of this discussion will revolve around the observed themes: (1) Love conquers Fear; (2) Love transcends Societal Prejudice: (3) Coming of Age; and (4) Family.

———

Georgina is the only female character who has a developed relationship with MCMale. Why is that important? Because Georgina is in the position to have a fully developed “love” for MCMale; the other characters would arguably start in an “infatuation” state and are working toward “love” at their own rates. (Although MCFemale has arguably reached the “love” state after a year and a half of VN updates).

Georgina is also the most self assured of the main female characters. Look at her dialogue. More than anyone else, she says what she means without self doubts or subterfuge. Here support for appears to be unconditional - a sign her relationship and feelings for MCMale are indeed stemming from love.

As such, Georgina can be a facilitator in the other relationships - the loving glue that keeps the other relationships from colliding with each other or imploding.

———

(1) Family: we don’t know if Georgina’s parents are alive, but we do know she raised or help raise her sisters. Assuming Georgina can get past the societal issues around group relationships and the relationship of the MCs, Georgina is gold for navigation the impending relationships due to her previous “maternal” situation.

If I am correct, Georgina should be about 28 years old now. (She started at the business some 10 years ago - possibly at age 18). We don’t know how old her sisters are now, but if she stepped in to care for them sometime between 18 and now, I would suggest this started when the sisters were between ages 8-11, putting their current age between 18-21. Interestingly, MC left his family the MCf was 10 - Georgina started caring for her sisters when they were 10; Georgina has a life overlap of care taking that MCm never had.

Georgina in the last update had to leave her time with a MCMale due to family issues. Georgina is thus still involved with her family to some extent. In this VN, there could easily be a scene where Georgina takes MCMale (and others) to a family event - family dinner - birthday or engagement of one of her sisters - college performance of one of them. Her sisters might already know all about MCMale through the stories by Georgina.

Think of the pleasant family scenes from films like “It’s a Wonderful Life” or “Little Women” - (sorry, in the Christmas season I have thoughts movies with family seasonal scenes). Perhaps this is the family life Georgina shows MCMale - family joy, love, and joviality.

I would recommend a “family” aspect with Georgina that should be considered is whether or not she is ready for children of her own. While Georgina has “unconditional” love, this drive to have kids as she is getting to her 30’s could run in the background, putting conditions on her unconditional love.

———

(2) Coming of Age: while she is not Coming of Age, Georgina has cared for sisters who came of age. Georgina can be a guide or mentor for the other younger characters. She can be the Mr. Miyagi to MCFemale’s Daniel Larisso.

———

(3-4) Love conquers Fear and Societal Prejudices: Georgina seems the least fearful of characters, but if she is to play into a group/harem ending, she will have to deal with the pending societal prejudices.

One easy fix is to play on her experiences as a model. I mentioned in a previous post that her experiences as a model on location could have led her to some rather liberating experiences. Google things now, and you can pull up multiple articles of sexual assault of models in the industry. Then there is a series of articles about successful established photographers having sex with models - some of it instigated by models and most by photographers. However, I have to believe there are also model to model hookups - especially when shooting on location and everyone is snaked up in the same hotel.

Perhaps Georgina has already had mfm and fmf hookups, and even living for a week or two in those kinds of relationships. Perhaps some of this continued on when the models returned back home after the location shooting. This prior experience could help Georgina’s acceptance of polyamory without needing a step-by-step conversion I anticipate MCFemale will need.

———

In summary, Georgina offers some great strengths in the Family and Coming of Age themes. In addition, she could also have applicable experiences in the area of group relationships. I would suggest, as a source of conflict, that she have issues with her “biological clock” - and not just how it relates to kids but also to her actual career which, notoriously for female models, does not favor the older female.

(Oh, BTW, like Jennifer, I would anticipate Georgina would be trying to contact MCMale to see how things are going and offering support.)

Does anyone know the repercussions for who to get a ride to school with?
The one where you choose D, Adam or let Elena choose?
I checked the guide and don't see anything on it.

Not sure why and I don't really care enough to fix it but I know I played and finished ch 1, but when I try and play ch 2 I have no save. Clearly it's a known issue because there is a comment about it at the beginning of the game telling people they have to pick the choices from chapter one. I don't have time for that. I'll just stick with DoD, less bullshit to deal with and I don't have to wonder if my save will work after every new update.

Tell me more about this - I see no way to "Open in Ren'Py" anywhere! I know I'm probably missing a step, or putting the folder in the wrong place or something... a more clear step-by-step would go miles!!!
So.
1 -> download the Ren´py 2 -> instal it 3 -> Create folder, like mine ( Renpy ) 4 -> Create (inside the folder) new game folder, like a mine DMD -> Put downloaded Dating my... inside the DMD folder 5 -> Open Ren´py 6 -> In Ren´py, lower right corner is preferences, push that 7 -> Project directory, push that 8 -> New window opens, select the renpy folder, inside that DMD folder, don´t go far as dating my folder JUST THE DMD 9 -> Push Return 10 -> Under PROJECTS should be the game, click that and push the launch project. And every new game that you want to play create new folder inside the Renpy folder and make the same steps. This all takes like 30sec, so it´s kinda quick to do even you have to do it in every new game you want to play.

I recall when this creator first started, and he put out a call for assistance. I actually helped create the hospital scenario, though he heavily edited the availability of choice I wanted to include. Sadly, for as much I was enjoying the game, the reduction in choices in subsequent events was disappointing.

Still, seeing what he's accomplished now, it's pretty good.
