For anyone who wants to play the latest update, please don't. This is clearly still a beta build as many renders aren't yet finished and are replaced by Placeholders. Best to wait until the public version comes out.
Thanks for saving my time.

Jesus Christ. This game is so FUCKING DARK! How is it possible that I'm choosing every 'good guy' option and am still this horrified???
Fuck. Fuck. Gotta say, writing is top-notch to actually make me care about this. Got to know what happens, hope to god there is a happy ending. But the thought of fapping to this makes my balls shrivel up faster than a nude walk through Antarctica....

"We just need. I don't know, we need some fucking evidence"

You mean besides the obvious rape video on your phone?

Or how about the fact they didn't take your phones away, so if you had actually said something before hand, your entire time there the Mc could've used his phone to secretly audio record the entire conversation.

"Hhe never says anything that will get him in trouble."
Yea previous scenes say other wise.

"He makes it seem legit. Has then sign a contract. Pressures them until..."
Contracts signed under duress makes then illegitimate and won't hold in the court of law.

The whole Lucien thing doesn't seem like an interaction that would make sense, I mean seriously, let's just piss off enough a guy with a fairly significant amount of money, now obviously the MC try to call the cops, lead to nothing, but if it were me I'd try to either put a bounty on Lucien's ass, 100k will get an asshole killed pretty quickly, or just straight up find a guy or girl to do the job, so considering Lucien is already dealing with criminal stuff you would think he'd be aware that pissing off someone that can do that is really not sustainable for one's own survival, heck the thug saying how some poor or rich folks its all the same, nope, because the rich guy's family can put a major price on your head as retribution, which isn't the case for the poor, so killing someone rich is taking a gamble that nobody alive are liable to want vengeance over killing said person, and unless you are 100% sure, its a major risk.

Why do you think most gangs and criminal organizations typically don't mess with the rich folks, because rich folks have enough liquidity to get them liquidated, if not enough influence to get the cops down on their ass, since cops tend to be incentivized to react quickly and brutally when some rich folks are threatened. Its what they are paid for after all, to protect and serve the rich people. Even corrupt cops would be feeling pretty queasy to do something that could affect rich folks, screwing over common folks is a thing, but screwing over those with wealth, power and influence is not something you do unless you got some pretty extreme exit strategy, like moving to another country.

I mean just for this story, sure the call to the cops didn't work out, but if instead the MC did show up at the police station, him being a publicly known rich philanthropist, the cops are going to be far more invested in trying to help him with the situation, again at worst giving some monetary incentive to some high ranked cop at worst will also get the wheels greased up enough to get them to go after Lucien, no question asked.
Yea...I kind of hope the entire Lucien thing is a very small blip in the story and just gets resolved quick. It just felt really...like force fed over the top evil character. Like the kind of character that sits in a twirly chair and does an evil laugh while twiddling his fingers together. It was one step removed from a 4th wall breaking quote that just said "Hey, this is a bad guy". Like yea, hes a drug dealer, who abuses his GFs, and also shoots rape porn, who forces girls to take drugs, who tries to extort rich people by blackmailing them, who also likes guns. Like I get it, hes a bad guy. He is just a hyper flat character.

I miss not being able to leave Risa there the moment she gets out of the car. Why would I risk helping someone you hardly know and on top of that she takes you there under false pretences? After that I don't care about her story, if she doesn't care about our safety, why should we care about her?

It has to be nice to be innocent enough to think of a character like this as something so unrealistic. Sure the real deal wouldn't info dump his evil doings on the first meeting...but people like that exist everywhere sadly.

I mean, sure it happens but come on. There are significantly better ways to write an evil character than just pure exposition of every crime he has ever committed in a 2 min info dump. It just feels hyper campy to the point of not taking itself seriously. He honestly feels like an austin powers villain.

Lucien serves a very important part in the story on a thematic level. He is a warning to Guy showing him what he will become if he continues down the dark path. Guy has an injury to his eye, Lucien has a missing eye. He even kinda has Guy's sardonic sense of humor. He has the same grift that Guy used on Brittani and Ashe in the dark path. Lucien is a warning bell, a dark mirror, a preview of what is to come. Kinda like when Luke cut off Darth Vader's hand and then looked at his own robot hand. Will the player listen to the warning bell, though? The canary is in the coal mine, but will Guy pay attention when it dies?

Man, this update was brutal.

I really hope that in the final version we can choose to view or get a summery of what happened to "Ginger" as watching her getting dicked down nearly made me close my game and move on to something else. Honestly, things like that, and the recap of the girl Risa failed, i wish there was just a cut right before or an option to not see it. It happens canonically, understood, give me the cliff notes, don't make me see it.

The other parts of the update I liked, Pepper and her twin is an interesting reveal! Love me my Tsundere goth girl, and her kinkier sister, hopefully we can rescue both of them. (and fuck the shit out of em). Wish we could still have a scene with Risa even with visiting Pepper. Liking Risa more and more as she lets her guard down around us.

I still go back to the Nikki scene of her saying "Baby, tonight we are going to make a movie" and her appearing in her boy-shorts for us is one of the best decisions Neon ever made, I'm glad I girl-friended her up. (Going to wife that woman.) Hopefully she doesn't hold against me all the other chicks I'm fucking which seems to be.... (Checks notes) as many as can be had in a single playthrough.

I really, really am looking forward to spending time with best girl Mason and the return of Gabby.


Favorites so far: Nikki, Gabby, Brittany, Mason, Pepper, Ashe, Carolina, Risa.
