I enjoyed this game for the few hours it took to finish a few playthroughs.
It's a great idea and the combat system, while it had me a little confused at first, quickly became a familiar and simple concept.
Great job! I am relieved there are still enjoyable adult RPG out there that has an expansive sandbox like this one.
With all that said, I do share the sentiment that the game can be grindy. However, the way to combat that challenge can be rather difficult when all enemies become a cakewalk if you progress too quickly. All it takes is to get one party to cum in order to win, and honestly that isn't a challenge once you have your characteristics up. It's a tough nut to crack since with the way the system is geared I can't say I know what's a good work around.
I wouldn't want to add new features to combat since it's already a bit time consuming as is. So adding even more depth might not be what to go for. Although I would say that maybe the game could do with some other forms of resolving combat. Combat and sex is fun, but if there's a way to incorporate other skills more often would be fun. For example, using English to persuade, History to find ways around the problem, et cetera.
Another suggestion I would add is about the Wilderness. In the forest, it is especially grindy in my experience because sometimes the encounter I want to happen just won't occur. Such as finding wolfshrooms near the wolf lair. Perhaps there could be a navigation skill that eventually lets you pick the encounter with a slight chance of harassment? It would level up the more you go around in the wilderness and such, maybe even incorporate the two trekkers to teach you some experience through interaction.
By the way, anyone know a way to increase the character's rump other than the parasite and getting fat? I have swimming up too high and it's hard to fail the skill check.
