she is an addict, she will lie to your face, try to appeal to your masculinity, and when that fails straight up steal from you and stab you in the throat.
but you do you.
:LOL: No offense, but I think some of you guys should take a step back or something. She's a LI with a planned romance route in a porn VN. I mean, yeah, the dev COULD base her off the most frustratingly hateable addict that many of you are imagining and just torture the fuck out of us. Or, he could... you know... better secure his bonus income and reward his players' patience by allowing them some choice in how they help Risa? :p Perhaps a satisfying arc for her that will be pleasing by the end?

I'm sorry for being a snarky smartass, but you're the nth person to hate Risa for these same reasons and I'm just really baffled. Not by the fact that you dislike her, sometimes a character just isn't for you; but the reasoning I keep reading just flies past my head for sure. :unsure:

Well, not exactly what I expected, but overall the update is better than the previous one and much better.)
And overall, it’s not like I’m complaining about anything specific about it. But are there too many girls in the game? Again and again, more and more new girls, and those who were before at the beginning of the game are abandoned as if they were no longer interesting toys... But we, the players, are interested in them, and we still have not received the expected content from them. I like new girls too, but if we continue to receive more girls than content with them, then what's the point?
The main LIs are on the frontpage. Any girls outside of those are minor characters that won't be the focus. I think it's fine.

From the perspective of a finished game, it will be very, very appreciated by players new and old. I think that's the best way to think about it, especially since Neon is planning to release it on Steam at some point.

Yea its a problem with many such games, they decide at one point 'hey let's add an antagonist to our story to make it more legit and less PWP' in the process they just grind down the story progress and slow down the development of the part of the story that let's be real most people even playing said game are in for.

Same thing happened with WVM for example, the antagonist was more an annoyance than anything serious thankfully was dealt before too long, still these 'obstacles' in games which are basically the romantic equivalent of Pokemon is obnoxious since no one play these games to see the MC deal with creeps, they play these games to see the MC get the girls and have a harem, worst as with WVM, you have a fairly growing cast of girls to deal with, this crap is just going to further slow down getting anything done with the story to the point likely we won't even see a yearly appearance of said girls in a intimate scene.

Jeez it reminds me of some games that have been in development for several years and that get only a couple updates a year, and since they are operating similar with a growing harem and an antagonist it mean at this point the games have hit a point where over years only a few days in game have passed which make any allusion to a greater narrative grating since its obvious at this point it won't be achievable in the lifetime of either the Dev or players.
None of this applies to this game. In case someone reads this and buys into the weird panic of "too much LIs" "game is starting to go down hill". I don't know wtf some of ya'll are smoking.. so far, nothing I've seen in this game reminds me of the shit I've had to put up with in others. And those games were even pretty mediocre on day 1, with all due respect to the devs which I'm sure are working very hard. I played them purely for a kink fix or because there isn't much else to choose from.

If this were another shitty harem game where the writing is clearly thrown in to move along to the next scene, I might sorta understand your fears. But it's not, and thank fucking Christ :LOL:

you misunderstand me,
my point, Risa as an addict, can in no way be trusted except to act as one.
and she is overly hot, like on another level Hot.
i hate that those 2 are put together, but its not my story.

hence i suggested multiple condoms, just to be safe.
nor did i sayat any point that the game is going down hill.
i still eagerly await each update.

That is not perfectly balanced, you took 8 people and left only 6! :devilish::LOL:

I think you are missing the whole point of the game either in the "Light or Dark side": to help those people in need or to take advantage of their situation.:unsure:
Also that is not how condoms work, you put more than one and the friction is more likely to cause them to tear.

Not every girl in the front page is a Li. I know Ashe is one and of course Nicks is another but some of them are side girls.

Currently all the girls on the front page are main love interests except Wren, she is the only side girl from the picture. Alex might also get demoted to side girl, the dev possibly hinted at, but didn't confirm either way, so yeah all the girls on the front page are main love interests except for the ones I mentioned above.

Nope, this can change according to Neon tho.

https://f95zone.to/threads/friends-in-need-ch-9-v0-59b-neonghosts.112500/post-10181531

Main love interests are planned to be: Nicki, Madison, Carolina, Alex, Ashe, Gabby, Brittani, Viola, Pepper, and Mason.
Secondary love interests are girls like: Peyton, Marina, Risa, Wren, etc. who are mainly there to bolster other love interests.

that's a little dated Neon made another post saying Risa got promoted to main and Alex might get demoted

Yeah, I added to my post that things can change if Neon feels like it. Anyway my main girls are Ashe & Viola :p

Also I want to add that Lucien is a great character imo. I hate the guy but he started as a creepy photographer (see Ashe story) and now he has a little operation dealing drugs and grooming lost girls into porn or worse. Is this because Ashe's dad fucked him so bad that he went full dark side? Was he always that bad? According to Risa he wasn't that bad when they first knew each other.

Yes, his face is fucked up because he got beaten badly an lost an eye when Ashe's dad found out Ashe crying after the photo shoot.
I think it's the same guy.

The guy who did Ashe's photoshoot was named Ron not Byron. It's confusing though because the username photosbyron can be read as PhotosByron instead of PhotosByRon. Additionally, in multiple paths Guy tracks down the dude and buys the photo rights for Ashe's shoot off him. If he's changing names and burning his tracks as frequently as Risa suggests, how did Guy track him down?

That being said, I do suspect Lucien is the guy who tried to lure Nicki into the surprise gangbang porno she bolted from at the beginning of the game. It fits his MO to a tee.

Edit: Disregard, I'm a donkey. Ashe mistakes his name as Ron. Gets corrected and told it is Byron.

My biggest problem with the game rn is Guy's sister tbh. Why hasn't she been introduced yet? Feels weird we get a whole Chapter around Risa before her. Like I can't even tell if she's actually gonna be in the game or removed at this point. Next update is not going to involve her at all either.

Here's a quick Android port from me. The patch is integrated + added some more game settings (textsize, outlines, named saves, toggle side image etc)

Jan. 1, 2024
Updated my Android port for the new game version v0.55 + made "Mod only" downloads for PC use, too.
Info: I added a button for the dark path game option. Be aware changes there are not immediately reflected in the game, it's better to do that at the beginning.
Jan. 10, 2024
The Mod v0.55 is also compatible for the new game version v0.57



Download Mod v0.55 (~1MB)
(compatible to game v0.57)

Unfortunately there are people like Lucien irl. The underworld is full of nasty characters with zero morals ready to skin you alive because you're from another gang.
Shitty people.
One thing is a very slutty young woman who loves to expose herself and having sex, another is to force a woman to do things she doesn't want to.
The best is to make her understand that inside herself she is a slut and lead her to become a real hotwife/hotgirlfriend
