In short, the madness from the old version where he endlessly remakes the avatar continues?
During the hotel break-in scene, could be interesting to have an option where the protagonist gets assaulted if she takes too long to act. Could be influenced by things like the submissive trait, and the mechanism might be reusable in the main story too.

This refers to the v11 version with the UN plot, not the v12 with the main story one. Sorry if that confused.
I really don't expect to see anything remotely non-consensual. It's against patreon's community guidelines.
TL- DR: Going to waste time on the avatar that basically stands as a statue 99% of the time with only a few changes in facial expressions or clothes the other 1%. Nothing important like making dice rolls 'random outcome" of options to pick from, or adding additional player interaction with NPC's to make more exciting or fluid sex scenes. Oh and as far as Bangkok? Don't even think about it. We will be doing a 1.12+ release of the same shit with avatar tweaks and going back to "background history" with avatar tweaks after that. You know, keep the same "tease" going for as long as possible. Put out "filler" content we've already released, then mess around with avatar, just to put out more 'filler" content we've covered already again.
Well at least he got that line correct in Swedish, the others are hilariously and obviously google translated bad.

Wow. Nearly 4 years of development, at least 12 updates from what I can tell, and about 30 minutes of linear content... The content that is has is great, but it doesn't even leave the intro location. A 4-year-old game about a spy on a mission in Bangkok doesn't even feature Bangkok yet...
The amount of content in the game has gone backwards over the last year so not even surprising at this point.

The worst part is that the "30 minutes of linear content" that is v1.12 isn't even new writing. The Dubai mission is basically just an incomplete transfer from the 1.6 or some such version of the game. So the game has that going for it I guess.
This game somehow keeps losing content. Would have been better to just jettison the idea of the other 4 intelligence agencies for now (it's pointless flavor really with limited payoff, and the amount of writing it would take to form redundant/siilar backstories isn't worth the payoff) and done a transition from college to recruitment, to starting where the first game started. Seems like this project keeps fragmenting when he realizes he's creating too many loose ends and paths and not getting any forward progress.
Like $6000 a month, probably a little less, but either way, it's definitely enough money for it to be considered a full time job, yet the update patterns feel like they spend like 10 hours a week. Everything feels pretty scammy, look at the Lifeplay dev, he gets out huge updates each month, and he's making less. Sure you can't really compare the two, but this game seriously looks like it hasn't changed a bit in the last two years.

The problem is that Crush keeps changing the interface, so he doesn't have time to update existing content into the new format before he changes the format again. If I understand his posts correctly, he is going to wait to update the older life story stuff until the story in Bangkok is at least begun.
I don't think that changing the MC's job from stripper to topless bartender serves the story very well, though i understand why he wants to build up to the more extreme porn.
