I'm guessing she's one of the main characters so she's going nowhere which makes sense but if it was up to me, I'd get rid off her right at the beginning but what can you do...
We had this conversation before many times but here we go again.
You can be a good friend and help her in one of her life lowest moments.
Nobody is perfect, even smart people commit mistakes and end trapped in all kind of shitty situations.
Niks was infatuated with an asshole and ended paying the price. Happens all the time irl.

Is Nikki one of the dumbest characters ever seen in any VN?

Tbh I've just started the game but it's kind of pissing me off how MC's acting like she's the smart one when she's made every single wrong decision there was to be made.

And you're definitely onto something with her feelings on the matter. She's rightly bewildered if MC shoots her down, and launches immediately into a porno persona if he doesn't. Safe to say she's pretty sure guys only want one thing.
The release date for Resident Evil 4 Remake! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Seriously i like that she can take the initiative. She knows what she wants and she goes after it.

tldr; Finished another scene where MC reviews Jamie's stolen photos. Curious to see the reaction to this one, as it's about as close to the dreaded 3-letter acronym as I plan to get. Blame my (lovely) patrons, they voted for it! And I'm hard at work on Mason's scene, trying to finish it out before the end of the week. I had to strip a minor visual thing out of the scene to speed up my rendering timeline and streamline things. But, it also made sense from a storytelling standpoint, so it worked out.
Saw it a few times already to expect people with paper thin ego, and who never posted before, to pop up just to cry ntr or that the dev ruined their game or other similar along those lines.

Tbh, while i hate that 3-letter acronym, personally i don't count situations where these things happened before character was introduced as potential LI and definitely not things that happened before the game started so to speak. Since it's reasonable to expect characters to have some kind of history on them. Also in this situation MC is clearly given the option of making sure the pictures are deleted and no one has them anymore, so if someone looks at the pics and then gets offended, it's on them i'd say. :p

Kind of a bad timing to show those pics in an update where you dont plan on adding Gabby x Mc lewd content tbh. It would be much hotter and would go over better if we could get some action with her after checking those pics out. :rolleyes:

I can't in good consciousness allow such Nikki slander. She's the best friend MC has, she's just made some wrong choices out of a place of love for a manipulative asshat.

If you chose Viola's 'dirty show' and didn't humiliate her at the end, she's probably still willing to be chill with you. If you did, she's probably less inclined to like you, but she might still tolerate working for you. Money's money.



Cards on the table, I only had Brittani approach MC instead of vice versa, because people had complained that MC was always the one to take the initiative, and it felt kind of predatory. I never really saw it from that perspective (I was just trying to give people the chance to turn girls down :'D ) but it kind of made sense. So, I figured I'd flip the script and have Britt make the first move.



In fairness to me (which I'm always in favor of :D ) the decision to have Jamie not be there if you skip sexual content with Britt was my attempt at constructing a consistent timeline for events.

The way I see it, if MC doesn't continue the shoot with Britt, she leaves pretty quickly after he wakes up. So, Jamie probably came back after MC and Brittani had left, and found nobody there. It's only if MC keeps Brittani around for a bit longer (like for an extended photoshoot, or a boobjob) that Jamie has an opportunity to return and interrupt.

I did the same thing with an earlier Gabby scene, but it was more subtle. Good-aligned MC has a talk with Gabby, either as a friend or a romantic interest. A shopper turns up right as they're finishing their chat on the friend path, while she shows up in the middle of Gabby teasing MC on the romance path. Meanwhile, MC with a bad relationship with Gabby has a very short, clipped conversation, and he's gone before the shopper ever arrives.

I'm not always super consistent about this, but I try to keep events on the various paths to roughly the same length of time, and if one ends up shorter or longer, I try to reflect that.
Hey NeonGhosts do you plan to add LI or a side character that is a complete bitch so we can at least not feel guilty for choosing the dark route with her I'm not touching that route with the amazing LIs we currently have.

Oh I like Nikki Character, it's heresy to remove her.
Still no pity for her at all, noone forced her to date an asshole (for how long?) and it's surely not a surprise for her, so let her meet consequences. Bad choise, one bad choise... oh c'mon women are not that stupid and still choose "Alpha bad Boys" instead "Beta good boys", and then cry 'bout one bad decision and "I though he'll change in time" bullshit :HideThePain:

How do I get the patch to work? I downloaded the .rpy but it doesnt seem to do anything. In the guide it mentions patch paths but they are not enable for me. How do I fix?

BTW, Just played all the way through, couldn't stop. Fantastic, 10/10. The writing and plot line are unique and feel real. I am just reading how there must be a lot of Nicki haters. I dont get it, shes one of the most important characters. Keep up the good work, if the patch is only available on Paetron somewhere, just let me know.

Mm.. I guess?! I don't see it that way. Brittani appeared as a teaser photo very early on, and didn't have a proper scene until two chapters later. It only seemed to help her popularity.

But I don't necessarily try to time stuff like this, either. I have certain story landmarks I'm trying to hit, and I just approach them organically as I write the script. It made sense at this point in the story for Gabby to be mad at MC and distant from him, and it made sense for him to have her photos after confronting Jamie.

I thought it was a joke and have not tried it. I assumed it did something clever, like make Nikki your only choice. Cheers to NeonGhosts for giving people the option I guess. Now can we just get our option to include Gabby in our photo session(s) with Brittany... ;)
It's very tongue-in-cheek. I think everyone should play it once, just for a laugh.

As for a Gabby photoshoot, well.. Stay tuned! MC's making a calendar, and there are 12 months in a year..

Playing it for the first time, I felt so bad for Nikki when she came back. First time a game has made me feel like a simp :p.
Hey, welcome! Thanks for giving it a shot.

There are a few on their way! If you're subbed to the Patreon, you can get a glimpse at one of them in Viola's short story. The Christmas photoset I posted also hinted at one. Currently they're only planned as side characters. But, I do keep toying with the idea of having one dark romance option, with a girl who indulges your darker impulses. But, I'd have to figure out how to approach it.. It's one of those things that's easy to go a bit cartoonish with. But yeah, unsympathetic girls are definitely coming.

update pls
I'm trying! :'D In the future I'm going to try to do smaller (500-600 renders) updates, delivered on a more consistent bimonthly schedule. These 1200+ render updates are kinda beating my ass.

Hey, thanks for playing! Glad you liked it.

As for the patch, make sure you let it overwrite the existing patch file. If you try that and still can't get it to work, send me a PM.

This may not be the cause of your problem, but it's worth noting that the patch won't allow you to access the 'dark' content in save that you started from an unpatched game. You need to patch the game, then start a brand new run to get the full suite of options.
