And now i am imagining Mason with a butt plug attached to a fake tail and using a colar with his name.

Oh, hell no!!!
I draw the line at anything entering my butt

I was meaning something wholesome
Like letting Mason ride me like a bull or something
While he only focuses on getting himself off

Of course that's wholesome. He'll kiss you and cuddle you, put some in you and then, before you know it, he'll have the whole thing inside you. See? [some] and [whole] that makes it [wholesome].

Can't we just let Mason use the strapon on Nicki? Mason seems to already fancy her and she's well used to getting fucked in the ass.

I don't want my Mason banging the girl I consider my sister in a non-Alabama way. That's just wrong.

 

[Joshy92]

I was right everyone
I'm still thinking about Nicki
What kind of taboo thing is possibly going to happen?
And what is the important question she is going to ask?

Edit - fixed my stupid sentence lol

Well Joshy...she might...just...place her hand on your....knee...

 

[Defenestrator.for.traitor]

And what is the important question she is going to ask?

I'll refer you to my insight.
P.S. It does not necessarily be asked by Nicki, maybe MC will be the one who asked. After all, neon phrased it as a question asked.

First time I see this VN, what is the difference in downloads the Regular one and Vanilla one?

One version will say friends indeed instead friends in need. The Indeed version even if you add the patch cant do any of the dark stuff. Only good path and maybe lets the MC do some of the asshole choices as well.

Friends in Need is basically the same version as the other expect you need to apply the patch to enable the dark stuff.

I try to keep the game, and the personalities of the girls, rooted in some kind of reality. So I just can't see a future where like.. Gabby and Madison are willing to share you, while making it consistent with their personalities. It'd just break the reality of the game. But, I do have certain girl combos planned, and there's one girl who's polyamorous and will be cool with you dating other people.

Damm, i almost download the game and was lookking forward to play it, luckily i decided to find out why it didnt have the harem tag

So instead i will give you my feedback, i dont think many people play these kinds of games looking for "realism". Its your game and you do you, but i am not interested in having to replay the same game multiple times to see the scenes with the different girls, so i will have to pass on your game

Anyway, good luck, the premise looked interesting

While I understand and respect your reasons why you would only play harems ( not for me unless the story is good). I do think more players than you think rather have some form of realism in these games if it's not as a fantasy setting. While I don't think 100% needs to be accurate I do think it needs to try. Cause when you throw realism out of the window 100% you get nothing but situations that either dont make sense or are just too silly. At least that's what ive noticed from these forums and other people's complaint on these games from time to time maybe im wrong who is to say.

Thanks for taking the time to give your input. The harem subject actually came up recently on my Discord. Though it wasn't a lot of people chiming in, those that did basically agreed that my plan to stick to throuple/poly relationships with select girls is a decent compromise between single love interests, and a harem. And I still plan to have a possible 'corruption' harem, where you basically just have all the girls as sugar-babies/FWB with no expectation of commitment. But, I stand by my assertion that a full love harem just wouldn't fit the world/characters I've built thus far.

To speak broadly to the subject of what people are looking for in these games.. I don't/can't really concern myself with that. If I only listened to the loudest voices/critics, the game would look wildly different. Maybe it'd even be more successful! But, it wouldn't be mine.

FiN is the game I always wanted to play, but never quite found. That's why it's a bit idiosyncratic. But, I try to balance mass appeal, with my personal interests. There's always been a one-for-me, one-for-them system with the girls's introductions, for instance. Nicki, Ashe, Gabby, Madison, Alex, Brittani, Wren, Risa, Pepper, Carolina, Mason.. For every trans dude, fit-chick, or tomboy, I introduce a blonde bombshell, a sexy e-girl, or a MILF. This allows me to stay excited about the game, while still delivering content with more mainstream appeal.

Curiously, I've found that the most controversial/divisive elements of FiN, are the ones where I gain my most ardent supporters. Nicki, Gabby, Mason.. These three get so much hate, but they also tend to be some of the most beloved characters in the game. So, I'm going to keep going down the path I've set up, and I think that for people who are aligned with my sensibilities, it'll be a fun ride. For those that aren't? Less so, but still pretty good.

All that said?

I also mentioned on Discord that I think it'd be fun to, once the entire game's completed, add some DLC. Ideally this would take the form of things like additional sex events (Viola anal scene, Gabby dressing room sex scene), scenes from the POV of other characters (Nicki's modeling shoot gone wrong, Mason witnessing the events in the alley with Ashe), or even just small additions to different scenes (choice of costumes for Brittani's shoot, the option to kiss Gabby instead of refusing her in the car), and so on and so forth.

I also specifically called out the potential of a slightly ridiculous 'harem path' add-on. Something that would lean into the silliness whole magic-dick MC thing, while also letting players get that ending. I was always a big fan of that gimmick where, if you beat a game once, you could unlock bonus stuff on subsequent playthroughs. So I think it'd be super fun to do something where you beat the game on a love path, and thereby unlock the love harem path.

I've got other ideas in that vein, but it's all theoretical for now. Unfortunately, the game as it currently stands is already a handful, and I don't want to complicate things too much. It'll be much easier to go back later and build some of these events into the existing framework, than to add it to an already full plate.

When the game is complete I would love a Nicki side story game tbh.

Now, this is an excellent idea.

After we get a little more information about her time in Florida with Vaughn, I'm going to post a short story that follows her after she leaves MC's condo, up until the time she knocks on his door.

It's my intention to eventually adapt those short stories into kinetic novels, that can be accessed within FiN itself.

throuple/poly relationships with select girls

I just wish you'd reveal who so I could get through the bandaid ripping of turning down the ones who won't be up for it asap.

This would be really cool and would actually get a second playthrough from me.
