An update on the office photoshoots...yet again!
However, it does seem to be an interesting update. I hope it's uploaded to a server other than Mega.

The list of listed events doesn't excite me at all. Monica's global story is frozen in place and nothing important happens in the main plot of the game. I'll wait for v14, maybe something interesting will happen there.

Boosty is an analogue of patreon which is available in the CIS. It was promised because of problems with payment cards. And it's strange to see messages that there are problems with payments nowadays from the developer.

Could be another photoshoot (or videoshoot) as you can see the green light reflection from the light projector on the carpet at the bottom left-hand corner and the other guy looks like an actor.

That was a pretty productive nights sleep. Wake up to two spoilers and an announcement of the release in less than 24 hours. Some may not have the story lines updated that they are looking for but we all know that the next update after this will release around the 20th next month.
Compare this to a game like City Of Broken Dreamers. Just had an update after 5 1/2 to 6 months, and I got through the update in an hour with reading every line of text. That game wont be updated until March or April next year. We the fans of this game are well looked after.
We all should appreciate Decent Monkey for his talent and work rate.

The problem is not that the DM does not work well. On the contrary, it works quickly and productively and is the envy of many developers of other Adult VN games. The problem is something else - the global FB storyline is stagnant and quick work on each update won't fix that, as long as the point of effort is to create fillers (additional material) instead of advancing the main game's story. I'm not even talking about Monica's fate - it seems to have been forgotten about by everyone. With the talents of DM you can make amazing updates, but for that it's advisable to listen to the community or ask yourself - what exactly did I want to show/tell people in my game and what was my original goal?That was a pretty productive nights sleep.

And the worst thing is that we have no idea what the roadmap (and if there is one) of our game is. The DM just keeps quiet and it doesn't add clarity about where the game is heading (and I'm not talking about the new "Whoremeter" scale now, but much more serious stuff like the global plot and the fate of the protagonist).
As for City of Broken Dreamers - yes, it has a long update cycle comparable to Being a DIK, but there's a clear main plot thread - saving a very unusual girl. And on that backbone everything else builds, including sex scenes with other characters. And if memory serves me right, I saw a developer post somewhere where he roughly outlined a timeline for the completion of his game. That doesn't mean I want FB to end quickly. I hope that there will still be at least episode 4+, but at the same time, I would really like this game to conquer the players exactly with its story. What will be remembered is not the number of sex scenes Monica has with bums in the Slums or VIP Escort clients, but how interesting and compelling the story told by the author of the game was.

Don't think there's a roadmap anymore, it's mainly a really good sex VN. The way the plot and dialogue is written one would expect some main story, but it's all gone into sideshows now, which I don't mind, it's just that the sideshows loosely linger to the main story while not having much of their own stories and are just there for expanding scenes. It creates alot of "WTF this got to do with anything..?" moments.

Where do you want the story to move? Please, don't tell me about the freaking farm. It is getting old and probably will never happen. No one is going to add the farm in one way or the other and risk being banned on Patreon. Outside Patreon? Maybe, but I don't see any movements in this direction from Decent Monkey. He is comfortable on Patreon.
The way I see it, every new update is pretty hot. And almost every new update is getting hotter - the scenes are getting more explicit and Monica is doing more and more hardcore stuff. What else do you need? I enjoy very much each update. In my opinion, nothing should be changed. Do you want the game to be quickly concluded? It can be done, I'm sure. But should it? In my view, certainly not. Decent Monkey makes a lot money from this game. There are a lot supporters. There is quite a bit of excitement before every update. Everyone is happy, it seems. Well, except a couple of guys who want the story to move somewhere, presumably to the farm. To move the story in order to conclude the game and start a new one? Very stupid, if you ask me.

What you are saying about things getting more extreme is a personal opinion. Because i will agree with Stan5851 , the story is going nowhere, and the events are just sex scenes again and again. Monica doesn't seem to be getting anywhere.
Where is Dick the lawyer, completely forgetten. He is fighting the most powerful men of the country for Monica but is not even bothered to know where Monica is and to meet her in person for more than a year. The revenge quest has not been updated in a while, so is the case with Marcus and the case with Philip who is not getting an event for over a year. With Marcus it doesn't even have to be farm, there are tons of things you can do with marcus that will be far more extreme and will not have to involve the farm. People aren't even getting the office photoshoots anymore, numerous choices that were previously shown as "in future updates" have literally been forgotten for more than a year.
Instead what we get is Steve's secretaries and his problems which does not even involve Monica. Melanie has become like a second protagonist and consistently keeps getting events, Claire also seems to be having events of her own. Previously it was Betty. Betty cheating literally has no effect in the story. It was not even used when she was asked to leave the house. Monica is aware of Betty cheating but she says nothing about it. So all those scenes of Betty with neighbour, Steve, Bardie's teacher, fish seller, Fred, all of that amounts to nothing.
Melanie has become so subservient to Victoria that she just accepts whatever Victoria says and it's getting extremely stupid. It would have been better if she too tried to scheme her way out. Julia events are plain annoying as all that happens in these scenes is Julia gets horny, brings up a stupid reason why she thinks Monica doesn't love her, creates a fuss and then Monica agrees to pleasure her. Event ends, Julia believes Monica loves her, until the next time Julia wants to something along the same lines.
The whole storyline with Misty is an extreme drag. Every event something new happens and the story gets prolonged as to how Monica will get the room.
Let alone the fact that narratively it makes no sense whatsoever as to why Monica needs a room at 10$ when she can live at Julia's or at her own mansion for free. She keeps talking about how even 5$ is very important to her to survive whereas currently she easily owns around $15000 in my playthrough.
And this is still touching the surface of how this game feels like it is going in circles. DM might be working hard and is still the most productive dev and needs to appreciated for that but story is just being dragged with no aim whatsoever.
If i remember right this game was inspired by Lida's Adventures. Whether that is true or not both these games focus on the same themes. And undoubtedly Lida's Adventures has put its main character in a more variety of different humiliating situations that Fashion Business has. That game will never match this is in quality but idea wise that game is doing a better job at the Humiliation fetish.
To conclude i would say i respect the fact the DM delivers such high output but he needs to move his story with an aim or direction, currently there seems to no plan. And if there is then it is intentionally being prolonged with lots of filler to make the game last for many many years.

It's not my personal opinion, not at all. It's a fact. Do photoshoots get lewder? Sure they do, it's undeniable. Does Monica falls deeper on so-called "Falling path". She does - she is already working as a hooker on the street corner. Does the Shiny Hole story progresses? Yes, it does - in this update or the next Monica is going to work at a glory hole. There are a few branches that hasn't been updated for quite a while, that's true, such Markus' or Philip's paths. But to each its own time, I guess.
It seems to me that almost no one cares about the revenge crap. It is almost never being mentioned here. Almost no one is asking when that branch is going to be updated and so on. On the other hand, almost constantly people are talking about the farm, the photoshoots, Victoria and so on. I personally couldn't care less about the revenge quest. It's the only one I have never played and am not going to.
I agree that those events with other girls should be limited. Actually, I've already mentioned it on the previous page. For sure they are added to prolong the game.
I agree, that for now that Misty's storyline is a disappointment. I just hope that it is just building towards something, and Decent Monkey has a plan how to make it hotter and more interesing.
With regard to some events not making sense, such all that room stuff, my guess is that when the game is finished or this episode is concluded, Decent Monkey is planning to isolate different storylines. I mean it will be imposible to be at the same time on the Falling path branch and the escort one, or Julia's. Then all those mismatches will be dealt. But for now it doesn't make sense to implement such limitations - it will only force people to have numerous saves which is a drag. There are a few games where developers do just that (isolate branches) and people constantly complain that nothing seems to be updated for their saves, for example, The Point of No Return.
I woundn't even compare these two games. Lida is so stupid, she is practically a moron, that there are no humiliating situations for her. For her everything is fine. The point of humilating situations is that the MC feels humiliated from them. If a girl is already a huge whore, there is no humilation, just a number of events where the girl is fucked differently.
More than that, the Lida's game is completely unrealistic, I mean even for a porno game. Fashion Business is supposed to be a much more slow-burn game, where corruption is much slower and because of that is much more believable.
