Again negative reviews on the game are left due to ignorance of the game. Play the game first. Understand the mechanics of the game. And then draw conclusions
People don't seem to be interested in truth so much as judgement.

The game has way too many clicks, but not so many as those who haven't played much seem to think.

I'm not sure what to make of all the recent "reviews" on the forum lately that seem designed only to punish devs (AW, SA, FB) since their only goal seems to be to make sure that developers stop making games. Who benefits from that?

Constructive criticism always has its place. Punitive criticism works against the very desires of the critics.

It's doubly ironic when you have a dev like DM who responds so quickly to constructive criticism but has been driven from this very board by the mindless critics.

Some people have a different perspective on what a review really means. Like that one dude that rates everything as 1 star solely because something is not what he likes. Even when a product is well made and shows genuine creativity and effort on behalf of the creator(s), that dude gave it one star because it wasn't precisely what he was looking for. Obviously most people don't submit reviews like this because it's rather absurd to give one star to something like a Lamborghini Veneno solely because you only want to drive a Ferrari F60, doubly so when both cars are free to drive.

Another situation is entitlement, and I don't mean that in the typical boomer sense. Most people are consumers (myself included for the time being) and many don't truly understand what goes into creating something like this project. It requires an immense amount of learning, time, and coordination with a team that also has to invest effort and time. Some dudes really expect consistent and daily content so they can keep cooming day and night, and they are dissatisfied when an update doesn't have as much content as they expect. Regular updates are a model designed to not only keep players interested in the game but also to quickly change direction if something comes off as unpopular. The trouble, of course, is when people submit complaints that cannot be corrected, and while I don't spend much time reading through this game's thread, I can safely assume that there complaints that expect a quick change but would actually require a fuckload of work, such as changing the models or altering the entire story of the game.

For all I know, this developer might have a temper about as short as YandereDev, but in all likelihood he's just a normal guy that has normal limits. It can be disheartening to invest this much into a project and certain criticisms put the guy into a mental space where he believes the whole thing might lose popularity and donors will back out, thereby reducing the inflow of cash he can use to invest in further development. This industry is not for the faint of heart and the reason so many games play it safe (this one included) is because other developers have sort of ironed out the best way to develop early access games. Experimenting too much with a relatively tried and true formula leads to either burnout or emotional labor, which is why there are so few "big names" making these sorts of games. Fuck game development in general, but doubly so when it's your own project that could get review bombed and absolutely eviscerated by dudes that have self-inflicted inguinal hernias.

So the fudeção was all hidden because I haven't seen anything about sex with Monica since the first release since the game, just some blowjobs.
There was only sex with the girl at the gas station, with the maid, and with the new owner of Monica's house and that girl from the gym.
With Monica friend there were only a few handshakes and some blowjobs.
Are we talking about the same game? :unsure:
Dude...
She fucked with Steven twice, one on the Pool Room and the other on his Office
She fucked with Bardie's Professor in the Classroom
She fucked with that prision guy the second time she was in prision
She fucked with Victoria on Melanie's House
She fucked with Philip twice, one on that office crap event and the other on his house.
She fucked with those three guys.
She fucked with those client working as scort.
She fucked with Ralph dressed like Betty (more pression on my pants and my dick will turn into diamond btw)
I count 16 times where she's fucking, if that isn't prostitution then u have to be a guy with a hardcore bdsm fetish...
and i don't count bjs and lesbian sex without strap-on...
PS: Idk what ur talking bout with hidden sex...

Hi, is there a way to reactivate the normal save options to save everywhere/everytime?
(right click -> save -> right click -> done)
This limitation is annoying. I'm used to save very often in such games at least at every choice.
And in this game you can only save before/after dialogs/scenes.

Edit: seems like EP2 don't have this ridiculous limitation.

Slums. A scene with the drunk. Monica tries vodka

how can I see this scene ?
You just need to go to the drunkard, talk to him and invite him home. The drunkard sits on his ass on the sidewalk. And it looks like you need this link

How do i trigger the meeting with the Investor? Could you please kindly give me a hint?....
Only if you like it ;)
After two days pass from the photo shoot in front of the investors, will visit Biff’s office to find and there.

Monica has a talk with where he forces her to go on a date with one of the investors.

If Monica doesn’t agree with his conditions, she ends up on the street. Biff will prohibit her from working in the office until Monica agrees to go.

A date with Olaf, the investor. A dinner at the restaurant. .

Events at the hotel will progress depending on whether Monica works in the VIP escort or not.

A chance to punish (available in the extra version).

Hi !
I'm on my first playthrough and I really like the game.
I managed to advance quite a few storylines (Betty, Bardie...) But I'm stuck with Biff and the photo shoots.
I convinced Melanie to help me with Dick. But I can't unlock the next photoshoots. i only did the first two. And no matter what I do, When I'm going to see Biff, I always have the scene with Christine and Biff. I don't have enough corruption (116) to accept his deal, so I always end up thrown out.
I'm sure I missed somerthing very simple but I can't find what it is. A little hint would really be appreciated ;)
