It might just be a stab at satire as almost every sandbox game has a scene where the MC steal pills to drug the love interests in order to get a sleepy sex scene. Perhaps this time it will be subverted and it will just cause Gaby's dad to not have any relief from his hay fever when he comes home.
Imagine if theres a situation where someones having a really strong allergic reactions and they just fucking die cause the pills were not there anymore lmao
That's dark lol. Would totally fit the game. All jokes aside it would be an example of someone winning a darwin award because if they have allergies that strong they need to keep an EpiPen on them at all times.
Sharing is not my thing but if the dev thinks sharing fits in his story he can do whatever he wants. I think devs should make the game they want to make and don't let others pressure them into things they don't want to make. Because that's a fast lane to burn out and the Abandoned tag.Keep in mind she also, so.... I think that completely changes her situation. In that light, she's absolutely an innocent like Viola.You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Haha, ok, don't judge me too hard guys, but... my opinion on sharing has been changed slightly (read: drastically) by Desert Stalker, so.... I'd actually be down for some dominant sharing by MC, i.e. pimping a LI, making her pleasure another preferably nameless faceless guy, things like that. That wouldn't be NTR strictly speaking, as there's no betrayal or shaming of the MC; it'd be sharing/swinging, though a darker more dominant version of it in my example. People are honestly way too quick to shove everything into the NTR umbrella, which I'd argue is a very different kink compared to sharing. Or hell, even having a more open relationship wouldn't be that bad for like one or two girls, even though that's not my cup of tea. Regardless, don't think any of this is planned by Neon so not going to happen, but just saying... your comment has sparked some ideas in me
I understand your perspective entirely, but keep in mind that some people literally have a personality that's more susceptible to being taken advantage of to the point that some of them require training by professionals to protect themselves from falling prey to these abusers over and over again. Some of these women were born that way, but others developed that personality due to abuse (perhaps even sexual..) in their past. Why do they develop that personality? Well, you can imagine a young adolescent finding out the hard way that indulging their abuser leads to less pain and suffering than resisting... and that rewires their brain and affects them for the rest of their life. Disgusting, isn't it? So, what may look on the surface like a person being naive, foolish, or stupid may in fact be a survival strategy they were forced into early on in their life that only now in adulthood away from their childhood abuser runs counter to their survival (assuming the original abuse is not ongoing, which is not always the case).
Also remember that some of these men who do the abusing specifically use strategies, whether conscious or subconscious, to prevent these women from escaping. This is observed by professionals on the matter, btw, not just me giving my opinion. For example, men who ruthlessly stalk women will many times scare any and all potential new male interests away from the woman (through intimidation, violence, etc.) to the point where she will feel helpless but to accept him... I understand that not all women are victims and not all their circumstances are as sympathetic as they let on or that society tells us, but there are plenty of women who legitimately have such sad predicaments fully worth our empathy. Not entirely sure what Neon has in mind for Nikki, but it's entirely possible that she's in this category I've just described instead of simply being "stupid, naive" etc.
There are people who literally orgasm every time they shit, we're already in a cartoon world brother! So anything's possible I guess?
Nah, I'm strict with myself and reflect this to surrounding people, so no pity from me at allKeep in mind she also, so.... I think that completely changes her situation.

. In my country was really bad tendention for sub wifes with breaked confidence and no willpower to change themself, it was almost dictated by sociaty (common shit for poor countries with patriarch...) a bit progress was made, women gained more confidence/more often started to take bigger roles in sociaty and it is almost normal now (I mean in same proportions as in normal civilized countries)Oh yeah, 100% man... I agree it's important for a dev to keep themselves invested, and that usually involves them making scenes that they're actually into. As long as the scene is avoidable, that's usually all you need to keep players happy. There are way too many entitled drive-by players that act like the dev should cater to their own tastes. If they were making their own game (as if they could or would, hah), I highly doubt they'd follow their own adviceSharing is not my thing but if the dev thinks sharing fits in his story he can do whatever he wants.

That said my Guy ain't sharing
Perhaps in time you will all come over to the dark side 
That whole little segment with the hallway and bathroom was meant to evoke point-and-click adventure games, or old survival horror games ala Clock Tower, Resident Evil, Dino Crisis.. Which is why Guy kind of lampshades it by pointing out what a spooky hallway it is. My plan was originally to make the bathroom a point-and-click thing, where you could click on certain objects to find clues and gather items. But, I ran out of time to code it, so that idea died on the vine. I'd like to go back and fix it, though.
I don't want to spoil anything, but here's a teaser I posted to the Patreon for New Years, teasing what 2023 might hold.Oh yeah, 100% man...

But man... if my Guy could pimp out Nikki, Viola, etc.... damn, that'd be hot in its own fucked up way. For me, anyways... I know how the majority of you feel
Scene involving something Big and sausy and Mason sucking...Thanks to everyone who helped me out with my tech query! Y'all the real MVPs.
Mason's first big saucy scene is 95% rendered. I had to skip a few renders until I could find the right assets, but luckily I foundYou must be registered to see the links
So, I've spent this morning editing and collaging renders where necessary. While I was at it, I decided to redo a few entirely. Here's a nice example of how a little extra time and attention can make something feel way more dynamic. Before and after!

With all the images combined into their final forms, some discarded, etc. current total renders stand at 914.

I dunno, that burger doesn't seem to have that much sauce, so can't see how it's big saucyThanks to everyone who helped me out with my tech query! Y'all the real MVPs.

Alas poor Mason. Only wanted a burger and is going to end up on the receiving end of some sausage.I dunno, that burger doesn't seem to have that much sauce, so can't see how it's big saucy
You've said it really well I think. And the writing Neon did is really amazing as well. Especially in the dark path where you take advantage of Nikki in the bathroom... Absolutely heartbreaking how she simply stands there numbly.
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
