Main characters not getting an story update once in a while?

I'd be fine with it, especially if it meant that side characters got some extra love. Some of the side characters are intriguing but have fallen somewhat far behind the rest. There's a great deal of potential in these characters, but it feels like its being squandered at the moment. Ellen, Ann and Peni are characters in particular who feel like they've been forgotten about and it just seems a shame to let them fade away like that.

Although I like Lin and Ashley, only one that I don't really care about is Autumn - couldn't warm up to here yet - I understand your point and if it's help you...

Perhaps, then looking that they have a little scene, nothing major, more cameos or additional things like date, Lust or dungeon.

And if it was solely on me, I would do the reverse and add as much content to Ashley as it needed that she will met Ms Ren again. :sneaky:

Sure. Let other characters catch up. The game is huge already and some of the side characters need some love too.
Same, though I hope Autumn is one of the ones catching up... XD
She's the most behind ...of the main girls.

Okay, that is sound logic, it would also mean her story would be over that much sooner, and we could fill that next room... lol

First of all: Happy anniversary and here's to many more :love:(y)

When it comes to the question I advise you to, obviously, do whatever you think works better but personally:
1. I wouldn't mind if you added content for just the side characters to get them more involved with the story (some, like people said, had to be left on the sidelines for the sake of a better connecting story)

2. I wouldn't mind if you added content for just the main characters either since I, like the large majority, enjoy how the story evolved and can't wait to see what's in store for everyone

3. I wouldn't mind if you added content for just 1 character (main or side) just to push them closer to the main story

4. I obviously wouldn't mind your suggestion since I view it as a good compromise

By this point I don't believe there are people that can complain much about which characters get updates seeing how you went on the arduous path of adding some flavor to the dialogue and quests whenever they're connected to events you already experienced (aka Vanessa taking you back to the museum and you pointing out "I was here already" and commenting on the revolutionaries you already met).

Happy 4th Anniversary, Runey :)

Agree that some girls literally need more development instead of others. For both main and side (especially side, IMHO).
Personally, i'm fine with skipping an update or two when it comes to main girls like Lin, Ashley (non a fan of her), Kali and the Android.
Then i would like to see some heavy devel for Maria (her mother etc..) and, off course, Autumn. I'm fine with whatever idea u have in mind regardless Emma and Felicity.

Side girls: Ehm...everyone, especially Sylvia and Ellen? seriously all the Sanctuary girls need some freaking heavy love.
And Moon STILL feeling freaking aMEWOzing :Kappa:

you can't find Ash's 'elf-mom' Ms Ren without there being new Ashley content.

By the way, I have a question for you all. How do you feel about having an update where certain characters, like Lin and Ashley, don't get story for an update? This would allow for others to catch up a little more.


Seriously though, do whatever you've gotta do. As much as I "don't favor" (I won't use the term "dislike") Autumn, it would be nice if all the girls got caught up to each other / close to caught up. But I expect whoever got passed over to be slightly miffed and to tell the MC to start paying more attention to them once the catch-up is done. I could see Lin and Ashley tag-team "raping" the MC for a day or 2 if they're the ones missing out. :ROFLMAO:

And hey, I finally have electricity back after like 56 hours or some bullshit! Only had to throw away about $400 worth of food. :cautious:

Wow it's come a long way from that first version with just a small bajillion scenes and a concept
The later storylines interconnect really well
Not big on the whole government elf slaves angle but im sure once we hand out enough pamphlets the revolution will begin

Kali+Lucia best girl btw

I'm 100% ok with taking a break from the main cast/plot update to focus on some of the lesser featured side/main cast no prob. Especially given there are some ambitious features he is planning which should really add to replay value and so forth which will take some time and focus.

Finally caught up and man the detail the creator puts into the world building is next level. I love that he enjoys the world as much as the fans do. Only take i have is i feel like Android is the worst of the main girls from a romance and sex perspective. Like usually her story events involve some deep emotional crisis that feels like you dont need to be there for and later in her events feel like your more of side note. Never really get the impression the mc and android love each other.it feels weird to me after her having just created ally we go right back into doing the sex stuff especially after kinda learning she has a lukewarm feeling about sex in general. Tbf thats for alot of girls just feels weird after maria was just enslaved i can have her giving me a bj a day after shes back. This was also my problem with the nia sex scene like shes such a cool complex character who seems to hate being sexualized and the first time we fuck feels like a gag . Think its because im so into the story sometimes the complete tone shift catches me off guard

I guess that's the downside of the:
1.Sandbox aspect - since you are free to enjoy the game and what it has to offer even if the story suffers, problem that can be solved (like we see when Maria goes to think about her feelings for you) but it takes time and leads to the second problem
2.Development cycle - most of the problems with the inconsistencies between story and gameplay can be solved by changing certain lines of dialogue and locking events/interactions with a character for a time but that would take development time and some people won't care to go back to an old event that was reworked to remove such inconsistencies

Now when it comes to the 2 examples you gave the simple answer is: this is an adult game so logic has to be bent

The more involved, story wise, answer is:

Youre totally right about it just being a limit of the having it be a sandbox type game. Maybe im weird but i would love to do more blocking out some girls after big character moments we have enough girls that youre not missing anything waiting on one for a few days . Totally agree what you said about Android which again leads to my point on her still being the worst tho. Even the twins who have been there for less time feel like they have better chemistry going on with the manager. Like maybe android needs a vacation like we got with lin but the creator was right to point out that we barely know anything about her during the park date. As for nia (glad to see you have great taste) i can see where you're coming from with her finally being free enough to express herself now . I just feel like her having sex after years of abuse should have been more personal and not involving lin at all. Like when it happened i couldn't really enjoy it because shes been one of my fav girls story wise and the build up just amounted to me being reminded shes a side character . Maybe my core problem with android and nia is sex seeming like something they dont enjoy so when it happens doesnt leave me with a good feeling like the other girls

1. In my opinion Runey is trying to work on an actual relationship with our lil Android now that she's sentient while at the same time not reworking her earlier scenes too much as to not conflict with the other girls.

This is a golden opportunity for her to grow as a character which, now that I think about it, was pretty accurate to this point (story wise). She was a semi-sentient AI and she acted like it (she was able to do what her programming was telling her and not fully think for herself) while now she's truly her own person and with that cute interaction at the end of the park scene it's pretty obvious that she will grow closer to the MC since, practically speaking, now they have a child to care for and raise together with Auntie Ashley :love: and the other Aunts. Like this she'll have more interactions with everyone and become an overall better character.

2. I have the same feeling about the scene but I'm sure when she gets more content the event can be moved to a later date.
For example she starts a relationship with the MC and after you get the emotional love scene with her you'll have 1 at most 2 more events and then you get the Wednesday event. Like this she'll still be embarrassed about doing this with the MC but Runey won't need to redo the whole event in order for it to work.
