Dont forget this is the work of a Triple AAA Developer fixing bugs and rebuilding the project for performance since one and half years.
How retarded someone have to be to still trust and support financially this scam.
And magically after absolute silence/ignorance on discord and patreon he released it right before the end of the month.
hmmmm im wondering why.

Got in too and boy, that's even worse than i anticipated
First, servers are on fire but nobody's surprised, maybe it's going to be "stable" someday when people get bored and stop playing bla bla bla
What struck me the most is that now, the game looks EXACTLY the same as any other gacha.
Want examples? here's some :
-> Stamina, check
It was there from the start but now you can refill using item
-> Multiple layers of currency, check
(from right to left)
- Likes you get by doing sex used to buy outfits and level your player lvl up
- Data fragments to buy specific poses and obtained by burning duplicate poses you get when rolling in the gacha
- Insights you get by doing daily tasks, also used to buy poses
-"Neo England Pounds", this one is the premium currency you get when linking your patreon
Given we just got some as "compensation" for maintenance, i expect it to become actually buyable with real money very soon.
-> Battle passes, check
You unlock them by using the green currency, that how you unlock characters.
Buuuuuut wait, there are 2 tiers for each battle pass, and you can of course spend you precious green buck to fast-levelup them
-> In-game store with item bundles, check
And to nobody's surprise, you have the standard "1st try you buy, you get double" promotion. Cherry on the cake : you buy them with green bucks
-> Gacha system, check
That how you unlock poses
-> Grind to unlock stuff for free, check
And boy, you will have to grind A LOT doing daily missions like :
- Make a character cum 10 TIMES (making a girl cum once can take 5 to 10 minutes doing nothing but spamming you num keys)
- Cum inside a girl 15 TIMES
- "Scan" 5 poses from other players (fun fact : you have to grind "ideas" to do that because 1 scan costs 3 ideas)
So TLDR :
Helius spent the past year turning its game into a grindfest gacha (there were some game service stuff in the 1st release, but now it's upped to 11).
He's going to tell everyone that it's not going to be filled with microtransactions/forced monetization...
But that will be another lie.
We already know that every new character is going to cost 20$.
A typical predatory monetisation hides itself in layers of currency, this game has 5 of them already.
Green bucks can already use to skip battle-pass farm, buy bundles, unlock character
This is a gacha, anyone that will defend this and say it's not is either lying, or completely delusional.

If you want to know more about gameplay.
It hasn't changed a bit since a year ago, it's the very definition of boring with a capital B.
The new map looks okay overall, but lobbies are still a chaotic mess with no fucking sense.
Character control is okay......because that's the default character controller shipped with the Unreal Engine.
Ergonomics are as bad as usual.
Chracters and animations look good (when not bugged), that's clearly the only thing to save here.
If you want my advice, don't give them any more of your cash and simply go on gallery sites to look at the sex content of this train wreck of a project

The only good thing about the servers finally going up is that now the Patreon shills for the past year can see exactly where their money went. Directly into Helius's wallet with nothing going into the game. Besides more ways to take your money of course.
Remember people, post your reviews in the tab above so more people can understand the bigger picture and hopefully prevent more people from flushing their money.
None is surprised, one could quote that post Helius post and ask how is it different...
The copium is that the gacha model will be f2p friendly and that the money spent will go towards making the game.
(No honestly I don't care if whales waste money on scummy porn game rather than censored shit on mobile)

The only hope right now is that there's a big drop in subs next month. Otherwise I don't have much faith in whales making good decisions.
So I got in the game for a bit, and I'd say the server issues are exactly the same as month ago. 400 people overload it, most calls fail. While in the UI, you can spam click shit and hope it does something after a while. In the game, the crap like dailies progress or likes gets recorded on the same server, only you have no way to retry it. So if you progress something, and the server decides to ignore it, you get nothing.
Not surprising, they tested it with like 10 people max. So it's still as broken as before. Which makes the already painful, boring and annoying grind to unlock anything 100x worse.
Edit: btw all the ingame UI bugs are the same as in 0.4.9, 14 month "rebuild" yet they somehow did not touch any of that
. Also the lighting seems to look much worse with each update

the only rebuild that happen was for their upcoming monetisation plan
nothing else changed, no QoL feature, no UX improvements
performances are barely better than a year ago
getting muted from their discord was maybe the best thing they could do for me, i don't care anymore about this game's future
i'm just going to enjoy looking their simps getting milked to the bone with nothing in return

... How come they have issues even with low amount of people on the server though? IIRC they said they out of steam keys or something? Like 500k keys? Im so sorry my memory very vague now and I aint bothered enough to check back (please help clarify this). Pretty sure they said they expected lots of people playing the game. It should be stable enough even to support at minimum 5k people unless they cheapen out.

I see, the update they been doing for a year is to implement the fucking stupid battle pass in a porn game. No systematic change no animation overhaul like they said, no new function no nothing. Not to mention the person who pledged a lot received no Battle pass benefit as promised.

Not only that but it's the jankiest battlepass implementation I have ever seen, not only does half of it not work but they haven't even built it around a proper gameplay loop.
The ux for the battlepass is also an unintuitive mess. My favourite part is randomly having to right click to pan on one part of it, with nothing to tip the user off to this and even mouse scroll doesn't work, and there isn't even a way that I can see to reach the battlepass screen unless you have a locked character (at which point clicking them brings up a prompt to "unlock" the character which takes you to the BP screen).
There are buttons which highlight on mouseover but don't do anything, others where you have to click through to a second page and then "proceeding" takes you back to the prior page, as mentioned above they forgot to actually integrate the BP with their old UI so the only links to it are via pop up messages when you try to select something that's locked... it's a fucking mess.
Ignoring all the other issues, the main problem with this trainwreck is the gameplay loop (or lack thereof). All successful gachas actually do have gameplay with engaging mechanics, party composition, equipment etc.
In this "game" all you do is watch looping animations. And okay, coomers being coomers they'll likely be drawn to the porn likes flies to shit, but there's only so many times you can watch the same canned animations, with the same characters, before it gets stale, especially if that's how you grind to unlock more stuff, so eventually people will have seen all there is and will demand more, and Helius does not have the kind of well-oiled development pipeline in place that can keep a constant stream of new content coming out, nor is there actual gameplay to tide people over while they wait for the content to drop, and since the money is needed to keep the serves going I fail to see how this project is ever supposed to be viable.
But then again, this was never meant to be a viable project, just a pie in the sky, selling people copium while the game is stuck in eternal alpha/beta.

I suggest not to use ninja ripper because it injects a DLL which can upsets EAC. If you get banned, likely it only shows when you login in-game, it won't show in your steam profile.

EAC was removed since they added Denuvo. I think Denuvo has some kind of anti tampering functionality though so it might not work anyway.

Feels like when I got banned on reddit r/fuckcars for saying this:

Also, for the uninitiated, there are ways to test servers with loads and loads of connections in the software development world. So this whole "server test" could've been done behind closed doors, without this entire shitfest. They just didn't do any testing.
