Man, I didn't think the subtext was very subtle, but thank you for actually appreciating it.
Thanks for the detailed response. I'll admit, I thought about adding a disclaimer, trigger warning, etc. at the top of the update for mentions of
suicide and images of
sexual abuse, but I opted not to. If you play Friends Indeed, you only see
the guys approaching Ginger, and then MC's face as he reacts to what he's seeing. After talking with my Discord community, I'm going to edit Friends in Need so that it defaults to the Friends Indeed version, unless you have the full-content enabled. I'm also planning to put chapter-break cards in, and Chapter 9's will have a content warning with the option to temporarily enable "vanilla" mode for that scene. That won't be immediate, but I'll get it in there before Chapter 10's release.
Personally, I felt it was important to show the scene in full -- but I understand if people disagree. I kept it a little more subdued with
"Kansas" and the girl on Risa's phone, because I felt the point had already been made.
Glad you enjoyed the rest of it, though! Once the public release is out, I'll be happy to come back and further discuss some the chapter's events.
Speaking of, the $5 update drops tomorrow. Still working on getting some extra content (read: sexual positions) added for Risa, but I'm also trying to enjoy brief respite from being chained to my PC, so it's a little slow-going for now.
