Damn she looks cute as fuck in those.

Hey folks, sorry I haven't been around much. I fucked up my back moving a bunch of tile, and I've been sick. So, most of my energy has been spent struggling through my day job, and then collapsing into bed as soon as possible. Still updating in my usual places, if you're curious what's going on with the game, though! Recently released some 4K wallpapers for Britt, Gabby, and Ashe, and I'm running a poll to determine Gabby's outfit for the next chapter.

For me personally, #2 and #3 look the best. I'm not too big on #1, doesn't really fit her as well as the other two. I guess it would depend on if you want her to keep her usual style, which would be more in line with #3. Or if you want her to come off as a bit more mature, then #2 would be better. You can't go wrong either way, in my opinion.

This thread is getting weirder...

Anyway.

In some timelines, MC doesn't know Nicki left, yet. There's basically three ways that event can play out.

• MC visited Nicki's apartment, and knows she's gone.
• MC slept in the office, and Maya tipped him off that something's going on -- but he doesn't know what, yet.
• MC slept at his place, and he's largely unaware that Nicki's left.

These will all be unified, and the fallout dealt with, in Chapter 10.

That said, it's always possible I goofed up on a bit of code -- continuity bugs can be hard to spot, when I have too many balls in the air. There's one with Ashe's path that I still need to fix, too.

I like the one on the left and the middle one. Feels more cute and less sensual, which is what i thin Gabby would go for in clothes.

Also out of curiosity, what is Ashe's continuity bug?

#1 feels like a cute summer dress type
#2 feels like a casual out and about type
#3 feels like a night on the town type of thing

So depending on the context, I could see her having all three of these. If I'm going on look alone, my tendency is toward #1

 

[ThorinKing]

He got a wife and she got a BF?
So, Joshy is Justin Trudeau?

Only if he also has a boyfriend on the side.

I personally love #3 & #1, w/ #3 inching very slightly in terms of sexiness, while #1 inches in terms of cuteness. #2 is just barely behind the others, but they're all so great I would be satisfied regardless

Isn't it a shame that different outfit choices require entirely separate images? If that wasn't the case and you could just script different outfits at the touch of a button (w/o having to worry about the fabric collisions etc.), it would be such a small fun little thing to have her (and the other LIs) wear different outfits depending on how she feels about you. To me, #3 gives like shot-gun/head-over-heels romance vibes or maybe even corruption; #1 & #2 are like casual/steady romance or friend vibes (maybe even FWB).

Just say "I can fix her" bruvs. No need a whole essay.

Hell, this whole game is basically that.

When I get high on the weekends, I just leave the OCD tism flood gates open, and it usually comes in the form of pages..

That was a great read.

Honestly, it's the girls that make this one of my favourite games.
I love all of them so much.
I just get this urge to help all of them no matter what.

See, someone appreciated the essay

I fucking love when it comes to Joshy even mods go OT.

He's a great sport

If the player gave her a little sleep aide and then went to see Nicki, and Nicki had left/abandoned MC, he returns and proceeds directly into the conversation with Price, without ever acknowledging that Ashe should still be sleeping in his bed. >_> It's an easy fix, I just need to actually.. Do it. :'D

Hi NeonGhosts I just wanted to say thank you again for that awesome render you did of Mason drooling into my mouth.
It is really cool, and I have it saved in my special folder.

You are in my top five most awesome devs list.

You know after replaying the update i'm conflicted who to simp more for now. It was always Nicki # 1 but after some time has passed im starting to lean towards making Ashe and Nicki tied when it comes to simping. Guess that just means I have to hold both of their hands at the same time under the moonlight in the park.

Ashe....always

 

[Joshy92]

Ashe....always

I need to simp for every girl.

 

[1KinkyKaiser]

I need to simp for every girl.

And a new matching sig to boot. I love it.

 

[Dessolos]

I need to simp for every girl.

now what would you do if you only had to simp for 1 girl per game and weren't give a choice to simp for others

 

[Joshy92]

One of my buddies in another thread made it because he thinks I'm a simp.

I actually prefer when games make us choose between girls.
I'm a very monogamous man

Throuples is monogamous with an *? lol

Same here even when I play a "manwhore" playstyle cause I can't choose and want to play through the game's content I even feel bad for doing it. Sometimes ill restart and make a few saves for each girl and play them all about equally if I feel like im playing that type of style to much without picking a LI.

I only really like two throuples.
Usually it's monogamy all the way for me.

Thinks you are? Or knows you are.

never understood this. Like... Monogamy is such a strange concept to me. I know people get jealous and possessive, but monogamy always feels a little too close to codependent to me. And when in fantasy? Like disney princess style romance pairing off can make sense sure, if it's a tale of romance about just two people involved with maybe a teased 3rd for a love triangle for drama. But even then(especially then. Cut the knot, pair the spare in a one true threesome time!), why aren't poly relationships more normalized in fiction? I know more successful poly relationships in real life than I've seen in (non-porn) fiction.

Such a bizarre thing to me.

Not that bizarre. It's less about posessive and more about feeling valued in the relationship. When there are more than two people involved, if one of them start to favor one person over another in the throuple, it breeds that jealousy you're talking about. It's about keeping things in balance. Not so much possessing but feeling secure in a relationship that you won't be left behind by the others in the relationship.
