I caught you again. Kaija will definitely murder your sorry ass.I'm gonna be honest guys even if Nicki says later on she is ok with me being with other girls
I would respond "No thanks' baby You're the only one for me" or something cheesy like that lol
P.S. I do like the other girls but it's like Nicki is Iron man or Thor and the rest are Black Widow
Don't worry it doesn't count if I'm in separate universesI caught you again. Kaija will definitely murder your sorry ass.
no sharing ... so far anywaysthere is any sharing in the game ?
Me, on the other hand:I'm gonna be honest guys even if Nicki says later on she is ok with me being with other girls

I just want to throw Nicki off the balcony. Girl just brings unnecessary baggage. We all know Brent will show up later because of her. Alex is more interesting than Nicki.
The bodyguard thing can be easy to solve. Imagine a retired CIA contractor or whatever with the physique of Mr.X being guy's driver. The guy doesn't need to participate in most scenes, he will be a presence in the back of the room ready to act when necessary.As for a bodyguard.. I mean, simple in some ways to add, yes. But that's an extra character in a lot of scenes. More time posing, more time rendering, less drama.. It'd be like giving Bruce Willis a SWAT team as back-up in Die Hard. The fun is in watching him solve the problem, not having someone else do it for him. Just my philosophy on it!
That said, if I keep drilling on the idea that MC isn't invulnerable, and isn't a great fighter, I'm probably doing it to make a point.
There is an explanation from dev a few posts back, you can refer to that. Basically a variable name mix up, will be fixed in next update and so on.I get an error when the question of Maya's babysitter is brought up.

I mean, I get it. I was also mad when she came back, but that's too harsh even for me. People are crazy.
It's nothing good or bad, really. I discussed it a bit on Discord, but in light of Itchio's recent crackdown on adult devs, I'm going to look at insulating the Patreon from potential harm by making sure I'm fully in line with their content policies.Ooh, I just saw the update to the patreon post that there's an announcement coming May 1. Color me intrigued.
Yeah the amount of power payment service providers have nowadays is nuts......
Yeah, tbh. I was surprised this hadn't been necessary yet. Only a matter of time before Patreon would crack down, so might as well get out ahead of it.It's nothing good or bad, really.

In brief, the game will be split into an entirely vanilla version (Friends Indeed) and the version you know and love (Friends in Need). The former will be available on Patreon, and the latter on SubscribeStar.
Now of course there's nothing I can do that would prevent someone from creating a patch that restored full functionality to Friends Indeed to convert it into Friends in Need. That's out of my hands. But officially the Patreon will fund a version that has a script and image file missing anything that might be deemed potentially objectionable.
Development will continue as it has since the beginning. Nothing's changing vis a vis the story, or the type of content I want to deliver. This is solely about taking steps to ensure the longevity of the project, by avoiding any potential problems with Patreon.
I'll have more details later, but that's the long and short of it.
Yeah, precisely my thought. No reason to poke the bear.Yeah, tbh. I was surprised this hadn't been necessary yet. Only a matter of time before Patreon would crack down, so might as well get out ahead of it.
On the technical side of things, I assume it'll mean splitting "patch" content out from the script (along with the associated images?) and having them distributed separately. Manageable, but a bit more faff for players to integrate the two.
