Can't wait to play the update! Finally became a Patreon, too. So you could say things are getting pretty serious between Neon and I.

Like I told someone else, harem and romance aren't remotely mutually exclusive.

True and if i sounded too harsh i apologise its just i was kinda angry at that dude who said he didn't want to play the game anymore and i took it out on harem players
Also its just there are so few good games on this site that aren't either harem or the two worst tags ever netorare or sandbox that kinda got me angry as well if i am being honest.

There's a big difference between being a "bad guy" irl and being a bad guy in this game. You're probably kidding around, but if you're even a little serious then this game needs to start putting a "Don't try this at home" warning for some people LOL. prison is no joke to men who abuse women. On another note, I usually don't play the "bad guy" route in games like this because I'm not a big fan of non-consensual sex. When I did try it (out of curiosity) the one part that made me angry, was when the MC was in the alley abusing Ashe, and he walked by Mason who can't do anything but cry. I had to look away from my computer for a sec to compose myself.

That doesn't work. The variable still says undefined.
What worked for me was going to line 34103 in the script and changing bri_fear to brifear.
Changed it back in case I feel like replaying on a different route later.

Exactly any guy who rapes and abuses women in real life deserves a hot poker up his arse
and also in this game being a good guy will probably get me Nicki that's all I care about lol

I'm also someone who's a big fan of Nikki. I get why people dislike her, but I have a soft spot for both tomboys and people willing to take accountability for their mistakes (although with her it took a few tries). That's why I also like Gabby, cause she tries to do better.
My bet is he does have something on tap, just not on a day to day basis, like a security company on retainer for specific concerns or threats. My money is on MC having already done something like hire a PI to get intel on Brett (mighy not have right name) and use it against him for threats or blackmail. "Well Brett, i know you want Nikki back, but between your ill mother renting an aprtment from me that i can evict her from, youe sister workibg for a company I own, and your trips to Thailand, I think you'll see keeping away from her is in all our best interests. Oh, and Brett, being into ladyboys I get....but why only ones over 40?""

At first I didn't think that patch was that necessary, Nicki is not that heavy later in the story.
But now that I've decided to play from the beginning, that Nicki patch doesn't sound so bad. I remembered and I understand why people complained so much about her.
To install it, or not to install it...

Okay... I actually liked the original Nicki choices/paths... but I chuckled when I saw the patch so I had to try it. OMFG.... I have not laughed that hard with one of these games as I did when I chose to tell Nicki to f' off. What a stroke of genius. Neon Ghost is my new hero. FFS that was funny. This game has now rocketed to my #1 and I am signing up to be a Patreon.

- if you choose to avoid Nicki it just leads to an early bad ending
- the anti-Nicki patch is not compatible with the new version
I think it served its purpose and should be removed from the OP since it just leads to confusion.

I fucking love Nicki and hope for some kind of romantic ending with her. She deserved it.

Did you maybe forget to hit enter afterwards? Can't think of any other reason for that not to work, because I checked in-game how it was spelled and just now I tried it again and it worked.
But yeah, what you did works as well, because you changed the script to ask for the parameter that IS actually defined.
Though, tbh I find it easier to just replace the misspelled value with a corrected version, instead of tempering with the script.
That's just me, though, of course.

REGARDING THE BRI_FEAR/BRIFEAR BUG:
Alright, here's what happened, to the best of my memory. I had the original variable labeled as 'bri_fear' at the start of Chapter Four: Part One, but then it was 'brifear' when actually applied to a path in the script. This meant that some people could have 'brifear = True' but there was no 'brifear = False' control variable for people who never did anything to frighten Brittani. Which meant that, when it came up later for the babysitter convo, it resulted in errors either way.
And unfortunately I didn't catch it until someone pointed it out with the newest update in the Beta. So, for the next release I changed them all to 'brifear' so at least someone starting a new game wouldn't get the same error. It should resolve if you load a save from the end of Chapter Three, just prior to the scene where we see Alex installing MC's hot tub while he's gaming with Nicki. As that's the first place the new variable is located. If not, you can start a new game -- but it's not really necessary.
As people who follow the thread know, once the next installment comes out I intend to redo Chapter One entirely, clean up any cascade effects, revamp all the variables, and release it. All the babysitter stuff won't matter until Chapter Five, which will come after the Chapter One reboot that forces everyone to start a new game anyways. So -- don't sweat it, it's not a big deal.
Thanks to everyone that's played, supported, or said a kind word! I love release days.
Alright, quick lightning round because I have a cold and I'm not feeling terribly well:
To speak to the continuity errors, you're right, that topless cheerleader photo does need to change. I'll add that to my big whiteboard full of little things to fix. On the goth photo though, Brittani does actually allow you to keep one of those, because she thinks it makes her look 'tough.' Still, I'll look at cleaning that scene-to-scene transition up a bit.
Personally, I follow a few folks on OnlyFans that use male pronouns, look kind of boyish, but were born girls and still have all their anatomy intact, and I don't think it makes me gay or bi. But hey, it's all a spectrum, and I just like what I like. No need to put a label on it!
I generally hope to avoid bad ends for any of the love interests, even on their bad paths. No spoilers or anything, but I'd rather see their stories end with them having survived MC and grown from it, rather than crumble. As for Mason's gender in particular.. I'm still figuring that out, honestly! Mason's based on a combination of two people I know in real life, but I also took some inspiration from a few trans dudes I know (or know of) online. One in particular went from using fem pronouns, to non-binary, to masculine, and back to non-binary.
And yeah, Nicki just keeps being more and more fun to write and render. And Maya + anyone just seems to bring out a fun dimension to their character.

Oh thanks, I went ahead and fixed those!
Thank you! Simple words of encouragement and support genuinely mean a lot.
Thanks so much for the comprehensive review!

I wouldn't say that.. This update was originally going to end with MC taking Gabby and Madison to get Ryan out of jail. Gabby lovers will likely get a bit of catharsis when that finally happens.
Always a chance.. Bonnie's not a main love interest or anything, but I have a one-off scene in mind for her if you're on one of Ashe's paths.
Sometimes being a good guy means being a little patient. Next update shows there might be some unexpected consequences to always being an asshole.
Interesting conundrum, isn't it?

Thanks so much! That's very kind.The update was freaking amazing, and to think the chapter still isn't over and we still have the date and the "after party"
The Mason scene was just a masterpiece, the Nicki stuff was so damn wholesome (on romance path at least), it actually made me tear up a little. Then there was the Gabby stuff which was a rollercoaster and dramatic. The Ashe house scene were great, the parents were great and the bedroom scene was so damn good, and humorous as well.
I'm also interested to see where things with Pepper will go in the future, and also the Carolina future date with (in my case) Brittani as a baby sitter for Maya... hope that goes well. All in all, just an amazing update and has me excited for the future of the game.
I'm glad people have generally had such positive responses to Mason. Warms my heart!
And yeah, Nicki just keeps being more and more fun to write and render. And Maya + anyone just seems to bring out a fun dimension to their character.
I actually had a plan for one love interest to act as MC's bodyguard (and it wasn't Alex, she of the many muscles), and later scrapped it. Like MC tells Nicki, he's not famous, he's more like a 'regional figure of interest.' But, that could change after he goes on the news to talk about the charity.. >_>
I haven't made any changes to the script, so it's possible whoever packaged it for Android messed something up? As for Cassie's introduction, stay tuned. I know I've been saying that for a hot minute, but..
I imagine her as being a second-generation Mexican-American, likely from California or Texas. To be honest, I stole the "cucuy" thing from a Spanish-speaking girl I knew years ago who'd always say it. I checked the internet to verify it was a thing, but did t really research further.
Ayyyyy, another UFC fan! That's also why MC's photographer buddy's last name is Nogueira.
Thanks so much for the thorough, thoughtful review! I will say.. There are some mean girls incoming. So, stay tuned and maybe even good MC will have the option for a little Chaotic Good retribution.NeonGhosts
Great update.
Jerked me around emotionally in all the right directions.
You are really good, tugging at my heart-strings like that all the time, I honestly can't play the bad guy here, when all the girls are so sweet and so many have these tragic backstories, like how am I supposed to force Pepper into doing anything sexually, when I am sure she is innocent AND she has such a hard life?
Then we go see Gabby, and I'm crushed, is there no way for this not to happen when on the nice guy route? Like, seriously, I need to know if there is a way around this. Or at least tell me she's not out for good, that there is a way to get back to what was before? (I'm trying to avoid serious spoilers, hence I'm staying so vague)
Mason really took the cake this update, though, first the MC trying to be badass was hilarious, sees a butter knife and his life is flashing before his eyes and tells Mason to run.
But then it was really sweet and sad. It's like his story is even sadder and worse than I thought. I just thought he had a stutter.
Also in regard to gender, I totally expected it to be the other way around.
I won't lie, this way it's kind of difficult for me, to do anything sexually with the character. It's not what he would want, but I also don't want to give him what I want. This might actually be a case, where the story will lead me on a non-romantic route, as one option is completely uninteresting for me sexually and the other would feel really cruel.
It's like this is all stuff that happens in RL, and in RL I would never do anything that shitty, so I kind of don't want to do anything this shitty to the characters here as well.
It's like with Radiant, I tried to have a playthrough being the bad daddy, to the girls, but it wasn't like kinky BDSM stuff, it was just plain cruel, it wasn't sexy violence, it was evil and mean, just seriously cruel and that's not something I find sexy, when I like the characters.
Give me a few really arrogant and vapid bitches, and I am fine with that, in a game, but otherwise I like some kinky BDSM stuff, but not the "I am a real sadist and want to hurt people stuff."
That's the position you've put me in here as well, you evil genius!!!
Anyways, Nicki made some ground this time around, it was sweet to hear the reasons why she is so reluctant, and I like how she is around Carolina's daughter.
BTW; I read that stuff about the Nicki patch, a real shame. This is your game, you shouldn't feel the need to do this. I won't lie and say I had zero problems with Nicki, but to demand a patch in this way, that is just incredibly entitled and dickish, sorry, but that is how I see it. Those people have no right, absolutely no right to act this way, even if they are all patrons.
But back to the game.
Ashe was sweet and funny as well, and her parents were hilarious.
Carolina continued to be charming and heart-warming, and she gets bonus points, for being a great mom. Risa.... well, let's say I have found the first character I find really annoying. I kind of hope, there's a deeper layer to her, but if not it ain't a problem, she'd just be not interesting for me, but there are more than enough characters in here that not pursuing a few of them is completely fine.
There was nothing I did not like about this update, even the MC's memories of how he took care of his sister, and it made it even more intriguing, that he would totally disconnect with his family, when he so clearly loves her.
Well, I did not LIKE what happened with Gabby, but from a storytelling POV, I like that she reacts like this. It makes fucking sense, of course she would want that. I just wish there was something the MC could do. At least he could ask her out for a real date. Madison doesn't need to know that. That would have been a small chance for a better ending in my book at least, but hey, it's your game.
