can someone post a full save file? for episode 2. Thank u
You probably want to be more specific to what events you want it done.
Full save, could mean end of content or it could just mean a complete copy of a save file.
Or maybe you mean end of content of the last version or several before that.
Frankly, my saves are not working with the current version so ...

How do I get the extra blowjob scene with who I assume to be Bob in the second prison scene? No matter what combination of options I choose, it never ends with that extra scene unlocking. The only outcomes I am getting are getting out and meeting Marcus or the group BJ from the other prisoners.

This is extra content of the 1080p version. Sorry.

Which game parts do you prefer?

The list of events that will be realized soon.
What do you think I need to focus on first?
(you can mark multiple options)

Office: Biff's events (castings, public events)
17

Office: photoshoots
14

Office: Julia quest and employees
5

Office: playing for Melanie (Melanie's events and photoshoots)
9

Falling path: Hotel escort service (will be started in v0.10)
29

Falling path: Shiny Hole
15

Falling path: street events
11

Bardie + Betty's events
2

Bardie + Monica's events
11

College events: Mr. Edwards, Ms.Mansfield, Eric, etc...
11

Fred's events
2

Steve's office: Steve, Jane, Tiffany, etc...
8

Fitness: Rebecca, Stephanie, etc...
3

Clothing shop events
5

Marcus' storyline
10

Revenge quest
6

Victoria's events
9
My preferences would be:

Falling Path: Street Events
Working the street corner as a cheap hooker. Car pulls up. Monica bends at the passenger window. "How much for a half and half?" asks the guy. "$100," says Monica.

Falling Path: Shiny Hole
Topless waitressing and stripping to fully nude. And without the mask. Everyone sees Monica's face. The office guys drop by for a drink as well. They're shocked, but delighted, to see their boss's part-time job. Not to mention their boss's smoking body. Word goes around about this hot chick working tables and the pole. Huge crowds come in to take in Monica's delights.

Falling path: Hotel escort service
Sounds really good, but escorting in hotels means Monica will likely be working higher rates. Me, I'd rather see her as a budget-friendly offering; shouldn't burn a hole in the pockets of her clients. Maybe in the ballpark of $300-500 for an hour?

Office: Photoshoots
Monica poses topless, followed by nude, for her own magazine. Public reactions, news articles pertaining to that. Maybe we could get to see her gracing the front cover of the latest edition? Or even as a centerfold.

Office: Biff's Events
Biff takes Monica to various castings. Offers her to business partners etc. Has Monica make public announcements; for example, why she's chosen to pose for her own magazine in skimpy wear or topless or fully nude, whichever the case might be.

Steve's office
Jane and Tiffany put Monica through humiliating situations.

Office: Julia quest and employees
Same as above. I'm interested, as long as Julia has control over Monica and takes delight in humiliating Monica like Monica once did her.

As for the rest:

Bardie. Couldn't care less. I don't know why, and I know he's a CG character, and I've never felt this way towards any gaming character before, but whenever I see his stupid mug, I feel like reaching into the screen and slamming my fist into his face. Fuck Bardie.

Fred. Useless motherfucker. Overly obsessed with Julia's panties. When it's Monica's skirt he should be hiking up. All these golden opportunities he's missed. He should've, at the very least, had Monica showing her tits to him, if not taken a dip into her pussy already. I'd rather not see more of him if he's going to keep up with this stupidity.

Victoria. That's more of a lesbian path, but I'm not into girl on girl, so I'll pass.

College events. No to college and anything to do with Bardie.

Marcus. Hmm. I wonder what this path will present, considering the ranch is out of the equation. Maybe a little spoiler might suffice?

Melanie. Nope. I prefer there to be only one protagonist in a game, and the whole focus to be on her. So, it's Monica and only Monica for me. However, I am open to playing Melanie, as long as it's some plot Melanie is hatching for Monica's humiliation.

Lastly, while we're talking about Monica's revenge path, how about a converse revenge path, where people Monica's treated like shit get their revenge on her?

Anyways, looking forward to the coming update, as usual. Not to mention the juicy spoilers.

I tend to think a lot of men if not the majority of the men on this site might side with you. I'm not one of them though.
But as long as you are going to go this route. Why not have her sign up with internet sites, like CL or BP and so on. How about some cam action. All she needs to do is get her hands on a computer to use.

I know have her sneak into the office at night to use one of them or seduce the computer support in the office to help her get her hands on one.

I mean as long as we don't give a shit about character and personality consistency fuck we can do a lot more. Have her start working at a massage parlor, or work in an S&M hole / bar or speaking of holes why not a glory hole since we are going down this path. Might as well if you are doing tricks on a corner. She could also go to one of these private modeling clubs and perform there. She could also start doing private parties like bachelor parties and shit.

It would be nice in my opinion to see the author to actually for once build a story where the females character and personality makes sense from the beginning and isn't just thrown the hell out to provide fan fair some guys can fap.

The truth is everything I listed above could be included and a shit load more even when it is done right.
But the fact is I don't think men on his site or most the men who play these games ever wants to see a strong female character. I think it scares them. From the way guys post, react to posts and so on there is probably only a handful of men on the entire site that isn't scared of a strong intelligent female. God for bid a woman can think for herself. How else do you explain a female character who creates a 100 million dollar company become a blithering idiot in the next Episode and can't make one single strong or right choice!

Revenge path:
There is a lot more than one person involved. She needs to find who, track them down, find how to get close to them and either exploit weakness and either find dirt on them and bring them down or simply take them out.
There are a few things that binds these guys together exploitation of women sex, money and power.
Seriously, if you can't make use of that you pretty much should just quit writing.
In this case all her compromises would be explainable as a choice she made to get close. She uses sex and charm as a weapon. That's a hell of a lot better than her suddenly becoming a complete incompetent moron over night simply because the episode number went up by 1.

Honestly, if I had access to the same assets I might be tempted to create, "Fashion Business: Alternate universe a better story".

Many thanks for your post and the time you took. There are some pretty good suggestions and also with some points you are very close to the story to come. :) It's very helpful when players of the game write such detailed posts.

Merry Christmas from the FB team.

I am sorry to say, but I totally disagree. There is a character consistency of the main characters, of their inner development, feelings and fears. Don't make the mistake to compare FB with reality. It's still a game, a world created by fantasy. Not only sexy scenes, but also details and feelings are very important for the dev. Some dialogues have a great depth, unfortunately you said you skip them all. Maybe that's why you have no clue what's going on? :)

You also said, you could make a better FB game. Most assets can be buyed, if it's so easy to make a better game... prove it and just do it. What are you waiting for? ;)

Just deleted it entirely from my system. I was replaying it and I had issues before with the story and how much of and how much Monica becomes a clueless brainless half wit in EP2 but upon replaying it it only becomes even more apparent. It is to the point it is nauseating.

Police station she has a cell phone and doesn't use it to call dick.
Every time anything happens she simply panics and goes to worst case action.
She hasn't enough sense when Bardie tries to black mail her realize the only person there who knew anything about it was Fred. All she had to do was go to Fred and explain to him hey shit bag I going to let Dick know you caused this fix it.
Or she could go down to the guy wanting her to take the drugs to his friends and get that and stick it in Bardie's room and turn his ass in.
She didn't once plan out shit of how she would actually confront anyone or deal with the situation ever.
She panics when it comes to Biff because she didn't plan.
She has no ability to convince anyone of her worth...
She can't even convince Steve to pay a fair value for her to fuck or anyone else for that matter.
Seriously, she shows her tits and so on the street for quarters. Hell you can't find a crack hoe that will do that these days even.

There is no challenge or struggle at all in this. She's not putting up any sort of fight or resistance. It's a stupid as having an injured baby bird in your hand and crushing it and thinking you are some sort of hunter for killing it.

Honestly, there are better stories in Checkout lie rags. (supermarket tabloids).

I'll see if I can put this in a perspective you can understand. I worked with a guy who's neighbor was standing on a ladder on the other side of a fence working. They Guy from my shop hopped up on drugs thought he was a giant because his waste was as high as the top of the six foot fence. Same guy locked his keys intentionally in his car so he wouldn't loose them. A ghost one day supposedly pushed him off a piece of equipment, it wasn't the fact he was drunk and hopped up on drugs that caused him to stumble. I can go into a long list of shit this guy did. However, it took years to fire his ass because he had enough sense even hopped up on dope to call his union rep and lawyer each and every single time he got in trouble.

So Monica is stupider than a drunken drugged out meth-head and supposedly she built and ran a 100 million dollar company. (That is so consistent with details ROFL.)
If she was some basic looser who sucked money of their parents who never made a thing in their life and didn't do shit in school could hold a job down that might be a little more believable. Except that it still exceeds the crackhead level of dumb.

Obviously, you have a totally different perception of the game. Maybe it's best when you deleted it. You describe an absolute different game, Fashion Business is not your game at all. Luckily, there are tons of other games out there, maybe you find one which matches to your likings. :)

What I said was I would be "tempted" not that I would or actually care to.
"Honestly, if I had access to the same assets I might be tempted to create, "Fashion Business: Alternate universe a better story"." is what I said.

But I'll go over the general plot and if you want I can go into more detail.
Lets start with making the general plot have some consistency in Monica isn't a total push over and can think.
Also lets look at Dick to start with he knows no one else came to her aid. He also knows she has no documents and no access to funds so why in hell would he expect her to come up with $5000 in week. Does he really want her on the corner sharing her with other men if he wants to stick his dick in that no unless he is just sick fuck. He could have just bought her from the farm then if that was the case.

Monica is going to realize she needs allies funds and a safe place to stay. It's not just a matter of getting back what she owned but survival. She's not a total idiot after all she ran a massive company she built. So one should have her act like that is the case. So she is going to do what it takes first to secure those allies and friends and get her feet on the ground.

Her best bet for a place to stay would be via Dick or her secretary or Melanie depending on the terms they were on. Dick being a lawyer probably can find out who can make or get false documents for her to work and hold some basis of a job. Lawyers talk to each other quite a bit about cases they are on and dealt with. They often have friends in LE and courts and know the judges fairly well. That's been the case in each country I lived in and each state I lived in. Outside of that public records search for people busted in the past isn't to hard.

Next thing is find out who her opposition is and who is the weak link who is easiest to exploit for information. So far she only knows of a few people involved in this. The first is Marcus, second who's running her company and since the company moved the person into her house they are a good suspect as well. Going back to Marcus would be to dangerous. The easiest to access would be Biff. The one part the author got right is the company would be facing a lot of questions with her missing. In fact real companies have entirely failed over such issues. Stocks drop because investors loose faith and so on. She should easily be able to sell her value and worth to them there.

She can use Biff as an information source to find out some other names of people involved. She could do that a couple of different ways sex appeal and actions or convince him to join her side and be rewarded and believe the other side is going to fail. Hell they couldn't even keep her in jail after all.

So now you need some more names and people. Well how about the politicians her husband supposedly got on the bad side of. His supporters and handlers. The camps operators. Financial backers.
So you have some politicians that play with a dirty play book along the lines of the Clintons.
A financier like Epstein.
And a lot more.

Options blow just indicates multiple ways she deals with the situation or makes use of it.
So maybe to get into one place she shows up during a sex party.
The next time she shows up as one of the paid female entertainers ... options
One of the people involved is an S&M freak so she finds out where he goes to get close to him and ... options
Shows up as the stripper for a bachelor party one is attending... options
She does shoots and works at the magazine ... options
She knows some of the guys visit the bar down town... options
One guy has a thing for escorts.... options
Another guy likes certain type of cam models... options
One guy collects magazines and likes trying to meet the models ... options
Another guy visits a glory hole ... options
Another guy frequents a strip club ... options
Maybe the only way to get close to some of them is through their family ... so on daughter in school, wife.... options.
There could be women also involved in this both directly and indirectly.... various secretaries ... so that could be a path to meeting the person.
Doctors and psychologist to deal with issues at the camp and even to some of the men running operations....
Maybe she ends up pretending to be a nurse to get close to one... Or a therapist...

She goes through all of it to collect dirt, remove people, black mail others... so on

We also know a couple other things. The camp is illegally ran it violates whatever country laws they are in. Otherwise with her arrest they would simply announced their intent to send her there. So the existence of the camp isn't something they want people knowing about Which means the second she can prove its existence and these people's ties to it. Things can become even more interesting.

During that time her personality changes how it changes is up to the reader. How she decides to let each situation effect her.

Maybe she goes back to her old life with a different view.
Maybe, closes forces the camp to be closed and everyone involved arrested.
Or does she and maybe she just forces some policy changes and has a say in who they target for the camp.

How many sex scenes does that give you
A shit load if you have a brain to realize it.
First off a single interaction with any of the targets may not be enough to get what she needs or to get close enough.
Secondly, things she is trying to fit in she would have to play the part so as not be discovered. Meaning playing a hooker on the street she would need to services other cars to avoid suspicion. Same with escorting, or showing up at a sex party and so on.
Also maybe the person doesn't show up every single party so she would have to come back a couple times. But still to keep from being found out she would have to play the part. Same goes for bars, clubs, stripping, BDSM and so on.
That's easily into the thousands potential.

Not just that. Lets say she makes the choice to remove a person. Depending on how and when it is done. How will the others involved see it? Will they tighten security making it more difficult to avoid suspicion. Or simply if to many start dropping dead regardless of circumstance do the others start acting more cautious. That could mean more potential stuff she needs to go through to get to them. Maybe the path becomes less direct and she has to please someone else and get recommended...

By doing it this way she makes a conscious choice to do it to get back what she lost and get revenge. Her personality can change based upon the either user choice or actions. What mean by user choice is not that she selects to do this that or the other. Each day as she goes to bed she reflects on her actions and stuff of the day and makes a choice how she choose to let it effect her. You can still have a secondary system that effects the subconscious level of her view of it.

The game would be no more difficult than what you currently have. As you can see it doesn't limit the content potential.
It would have a lot less grinding.
It shows actual character consistence.
It also allows for an actual degradation of the character , which is better than the person becoming a sniveling moron over night.
The story has starting goals that is clearly defined but can be altered over time with the change in personality.
Start Goals: survive, collect information, revenge and get back what was taken.
She does what she does with a reason and purpose not because of fear and stupidity.
Think of the story as a bunch of interlocked circles solving one leads to information that can allow access to another.
There are two types of paths in this story. The first is the information path and where it leads the second is the mental state path of the character and how it effects her. Each has multiple branches.
The mental state path effects the dialog options and so on. It's based off two things a subconscious and conscious choice of how each action she does effects her. Before each night sleep she evaluates the day and plans the next day. She makes conscious choice as how to look at what happened that day. She can look at it as an ends to a means for example. Or she could reflect on its sexual nature or she could look at it as revoltingly and ... over time it accumulates. How it does effects her dialog and decision choices.

Thus you could use a state system or switch type statement or dictionary of functions to create your options control.
You could also build the dialogs out of a pool of options rather than trying to build each potential dialog.
That list of people could be gone through in various orders make it users choice. By doing that it creates different circumstance based on different knowledge gain with previous interactions.

So next I should work character target list and their involvement.
Bishop Montoya his part is in that it is land own by the church and he uses his diplomatic means and aircraft to take women out of the country to the farm.
Politician ~ frequent user of the farm, gets authorities to turn a blind eye with political influence and funding
Financier ~ Epstein the backer or the biggest one
Corrupt military and police in that country or maybe country is ran by a war lord. who provides security in exchange for financing and ...
Obviously corrupt cops in this country she is in...
Doctors who back and forth along with other staff. Pretend it is part of humanitarian aid to the area.
They need corrupt people in various other areas
Lawyers, tax office, courts such as judges and their clerks.

Then we need to select the events that give her the chance to get close to these people and it needs to be fitting the story.
I mean a beat cop isn't going to afford putting on a huge sex party in a mansion or penthouse ... It would be more fitting he is the one you find in a strip club, or bar...

After that we can create a location map. Determine how we want this all to look and add some more details in.
Then I could use
Build a general scene and flow system for each target and so on.

Then create a dialog table for the various potential actions and encounters with the different events and gained knowledge.
That way we can build a dynamic dialog that changes based on what has happened and allows for different responses to it.
That's primarily because I am lazy and have no interest in trying write 20 variations of dialog for each scene that could be played in some different order. It also adds replay-ability.

We could also build in some fail paths that work in various degrees and ways. Such as she might be to uncomfortable doing one thing and need to do other stuff first. That could lead to something like if she went to a swingers event with a black room where participation is mandatory. (black room, gangbang room, multiple partner room. Everyone's expected to participate that way they aren't likely to blab about what they seen)

That's just an overall look with no real detail added.

Obviously, you have a totally different perception of the game. Maybe it's best when you deleted it. You describe an absolute different game, Fashion Business is not your game at all. Luckily, there are tons of other games out there, maybe you find one which matches to your likings. :)
Your right it isn't what I hoped because the only thing the author of this story knows how to do is the character panics and thinks own my god I have to do this or I am in trouble.

Biff calls cops.
Monica panics, pretend its not me.
Dick cops are coming.
Monica: panics beg
Bardie goes cops
Bardie various other times
Bar she does it

It's the only way this author knows how to get Monica to do shit.
Monica Panics: (I have to do this)
You know the face she makes and panic stricken look and the crappy sound effect
Dialog (I have to do this...) in some variation.

Instead of Fashion business the game should be renamed, "I have to do this."

Should I start posting screen shots of all the times he used that?

Just deleted it entirely from my system. I was replaying it and I had issues before with the story and how much of and how much Monica becomes a clueless brainless half wit in EP2 but upon replaying it it only becomes even more apparent. It is to the point it is nauseating.

Police station she has a cell phone and doesn't use it to call dick.
Every time anything happens she simply panics and goes to worst case action.
She hasn't enough sense when Bardie tries to black mail her realize the only person there who knew anything about it was Fred. All she had to do was go to Fred and explain to him hey shit bag I going to let Dick know you caused this fix it.
Or she could go down to the guy wanting her to take the drugs to his friends and get that and stick it in Bardie's room and turn his ass in.
She didn't once plan out shit of how she would actually confront anyone or deal with the situation ever.
She panics when it comes to Biff because she didn't plan.
She has no ability to convince anyone of her worth...
She can't even convince Steve to pay a fair value for her to fuck or anyone else for that matter.
Seriously, she shows her tits and so on the street for quarters. Hell you can't find a crack hoe that will do that these days even.

There is no challenge or struggle at all in this. She's not putting up any sort of fight or resistance. It's a stupid as having an injured baby bird in your hand and crushing it and thinking you are some sort of hunter for killing it.

Honestly, there are better stories in Checkout lie rags. (supermarket tabloids).

I'll see if I can put this in a perspective you can understand. I worked with a guy who's neighbor was standing on a ladder on the other side of a fence working. They Guy from my shop hopped up on drugs thought he was a giant because his waste was as high as the top of the six foot fence. Same guy locked his keys intentionally in his car so he wouldn't loose them. A ghost one day supposedly pushed him off a piece of equipment, it wasn't the fact he was drunk and hopped up on drugs that caused him to stumble. I can go into a long list of shit this guy did. However, it took years to fire his ass because he had enough sense even hopped up on dope to call his union rep and lawyer each and every single time he got in trouble.

So Monica is stupider than a drunken drugged out meth-head and supposedly she built and ran a 100 million dollar company. (That is so consistent with details ROFL.)
If she was some basic looser who sucked money of their parents who never made a thing in their life and didn't do shit in school could hold a job down that might be a little more believable. Except that it still exceeds the crackhead level of dumb.
The dev makes Monica stupid so we can see more sexy scenes with her. That's the point of a porn game right?

I have played tons of games on this site and i think the story of this game is still pretty good and believable compairing to many other games where the mc is just a nyphomaniac.

Let me remind you this is a porn game.The dev doesn't try winning game of the year. Therefore the story doesn't need to be too realistic.At least there are still a lot of people who like his writing and story.

If you think you can make a better game than FB then go ahead. Step up or step aside and let the dev do his job.

You don't need a stupid character to see all those scene and more. Thinking that way just shows a complete lack of imagination and mental development.

Suggest you read the post just before this one you posted. I posted an entire break down on how she could do all of what the dev is doing and much more without being a panicky idiot. https://f95zone.to/threads/fashion-business-ep-2-v0-9-fix2-decentmonkey.11501/post-2802524

This dev is a one trick pony. Monica panics and says, "I have to do this"
Why that is I don't know. I could assume he is lazy or I could assume he is just incapable of thinking beyond that aspect.
Either way it makes for a shit story.
