pretty unusual no one is asking or begging for the update, we know there is a scene when Ash ... deals with family business, are we seriously going to wait for the alpha or the beta, that's 6~8 days!!

I have a problem with this game, latest version, both normal and compressed version, "skip unseen text" is not activated, but if I press Ctrl it always skips unread text. I deleted the "persistent" file many times, and loaded a save again, preference "skip unseen text" is not active, but still it ignores it and skip text I've never seen before. Never happened in any other game before. How can I fix that?

I'm not the type to post links to games, but I can at least let you know that the preview contains a scene with Ashley and Monica (lesbian), and a scene with Arthur that happens if you're on the good route and choose to be corrupted after Eric's funeral. This is the same as an old Arthur scene, that you wouldn't have encountered if playing the good route.
I hope that’s not true of the Arthur scene, because the “latest” Arthur scene involving corruption of the Good Ash was a retread.

Similarly, when EK did that scene with Bernard where they just kept going at it... but all the art was recycled. I still can’t believe that scene didn’t end on something completely new.

It is a recycled scene, so there's nothing to hope for.

Some kind soul please post the Alpha.

As for piracy. People who pledge to support the game do it to support the game, not get faster access (that's just a nice little bonus, the pledgers pledge to ensure a story they like gets told to completion or to get the opportunity to influence the game's development) People who don't pledge, still wouldn't pledge if there were fewer people posting the downloads, they would simply wander away and play another game until it became available. BUT what piracy does do, especially in a very successful game like this, is generate a huge buzz, word of mouth, so for every 100 piraters, if you get 1 solid 30 dollar sponsor then you could soon enough be in the position of making a good few thousand a month. As a very wise man a few posts ago said, devs don't need to fear pirates, they need to fear crap content.

Eva's game is one of the best around simply because she has the best content around.

It's a muddy water, because I don't think there are absolute truths.
If EvaKiss has 2k Patreons, but 20k people end up playing the game, would she have 20k patreons if piracy was somehow impossible? No way. But it's also highly likely that at least SOME of those 18k people would still want to play the game and thus end up shelling out money to become a patreon themselves. How many? No one can tell.
But a mere 10% would be 1800 Patreons and thus double the current Patreon count. Even a mere 1% - which is a pretty low guess imo, would mean 180 more Patreons, and thus at an average $5 donation almost a thousand bucks.
It's hard for "publishers", be it small fry that run their Patreon or multi-billion dollar companies, to just ignore this potential.

Now, there's an additional aspect: How many of those 18k people would have heard about the game in the first place if it was not for piracy? This number is probably not 0, but probably also not 18k. More mud.

That said, I feel with a Patreon things are even more muddy, because technically the Patreons are not "purchasing the game" or something. But still, I can understand the reasoning - and personally, I never play the Previews but rather wait for the Beta at the very least.

Interesting, do you happen to know what the study is/where I can find it?
Of course. You can find it


It's about the impact it has on her patrons. Not many would pay the 30 for the previews, if it just appears online the next day every single time. Just a couple of that level patrons lost will start to have an impact.
I'm not so sure about that.

How do you make Ashley blonde?
The "Blonde Hair" is the "Bimbo route" - you can be "Bimbo" only if you disagree to stay with the "Gang",if you agree to stay with the "Gang" you can't do the "Bimbo route" and become with "Blonde hair" (I know,i don't like that too - I wish i can make Ashley Blonde even if she stay with the Gang,but it's not possible) - only if you are not with the "Gang" you can become "Blonde Bimbo"!

Has anyone experiencing this "skip text" problem? Am I the only one?
