very good update, with the decision at the end it seems that the paths start to separate (different development to know about pepper, to go with nicky or to hang out with risa), then something can happen to make this "even" maybe but with nicky I see it difficult, the other 2 can happen at any time; looking forward to the next update which should have the nicky scene and we will finally see gabby again and how things evolve with madison getting her husband out of jail. With any luck brittani also appears as the mc finds out what her has happened and it would be a good act to strengthen their relationship.

That's strange, because i got that scene on the good guy route...i have no path were i abuse Ashe.
Does the bikini you choose for Cassie has something to with if you get that scene, or if you got the first incest play with Ashe, the first time you meet her ?

the dev already mentioned some of that and I think he said it was not related to the above choice (ch2 if I remember correctly) if you chose incest roleplay and that he was going to fix it when he did the ch1 remake.

You probably have the vanilla version. Check which version you got.
"Friends in Need" (2.43GB) vanilla says "Friends Indeed" (2.19GB)
For the patch to work, you need Friends in Need.
The standard, go to the game folder, then find patch.rpy, and either open it with notepad/notepad++ and change false to true and save.
Or use the taboo patch, and copy/replace.

I know that in the past I have said I don't like Nicki (still not sure I do), but that aside, this game has a ton of content, and the content differs greatly depending on choices. You can be a very nice guy, or a rapist, or something in between. You should really download the game and try lots of different choices. Anyway no matter what you think about Nicki, the game is very well done, lot of stuff for most everyone. I wish the developer continued success and good fortune. peace.
yeah, at first i downloaded the vanilla version by mistake, redownloaded the other one afterwards
this is whats in my patch.rpy, dont have a .rpa in there
is there maybe a permanent somewhere that could confuse the dirty version?
Just played the game from the start again. Really enjoyed the bad guy route. It's not just about being able to be mean and brutal (degrading others, slapping, raping and all that), but also about catching MC showing a nostalgic, vulnerable side during brief moments of clarity. Now that's great drama, and I suspect it won't be as touching, even poignant as in the good guy route.
You know, Neon mentioned how on the evil route it wouldn't be this demented harem, but a slow decent where the girls act like real people and one by one drop from Guy's life, but this update that kind of hit home.
Viola is obviously absent from the update entirely, and Neon mentioned how after what happened she just shut down, stopped going to work, etc. Then in this update, while going through the meanest options possible, where you demean Ashe telling her that she's nothing but a burden on her friends and family...
I think I know how Ashe leaves the story on the evil route.
I applaud the writing for the bad route, and how it treats the characters like actual human beings. Some people do just accept it, accustomed if not content with their misery. Some go full stockholm syndrome, not necessarily enjoying it, but completely twisted into believing their abuser really does care about them, and that if they just stopped making the abuser angry, things would be better. Others just break. The result of that break differs.
You care about your characters Neon, and it makes their pain feel much more real. I can't say I'm finding much enjoyment out of this path, but I'll raise a toast to your writing when I reach the end of this road, watching a miserable and empty man reach the finish line to find himself all alone, in spirit if not in body.

Kudos to the author. The plot is really compelling and you get hooked right away in the narrative. It's fast paced but I'm really enjoying the ride. You also have the balls to actually give horrible choices that would make players be as cruel as they want to be and still have it be meaningful. I usually play cruel paths first to see the content available and then play as good Guy as a palate cleanser for the terrible deeds in the previous playthrough and to end in a good note.

The romance path scenes are the best for Ashe lovers. You learn new things about Ashe's past and share some tender moments, by the end she almost confess being in love with the MC.
On the other hand reluctant Ashe is prolly te best scene in the game so far. I'm talking about sending her to home with a tease.
Blackmail her - Force her to date you - Help Viola - Be a good guy during your date - Send her home with a tease.
