hi, I remember you created a mega link where you saved many Hillside photos, but somehow I lost the link. Can you please share it again? Thank you.

I play single routes and harem games. I don't like when devs force relationship on the MC, I prefer to have a choice always.
Anyway, my criticism is about how long the slow burn is taking if that wasn't clear.

That is understandable. There is roughly two types of MC usually.

Either you have a "mostly empty", in term of values ad pre established personality I mean. Player can guide his choices, and it can go one way or the total opposite. Because the player is the master of all MC's personality.

Then you have the designed MC (if you have a better name for it, I'll gladly take it). MC comes with his sets of values and his personality. You can stir a bit with his choice, but you can't rewrite his base values, or personality traits.

Hillside is clearly the later. MC has a lot of values and a character quite well defined. You couldn't make it go harem, or cheating, not even corruption. It doesn't fit the character.

I can see why it feels like forcing, but that is just two very different approaches of a choice page game main character. I'm curious to have your opinion on that (if you don't mind)

What Ragnar stated is mostly true. I believe it had taken a different direction a long time ago, around the time when things like he has mentioned were removed and modified, likely due to a new approach in which the story-focus is highly favored or change of heart or something like that. I'm a little disappointed too, not because of the stern focus on the story but doing it at the expense of doing it.

For all the changes that appears (mostly people are sad to see the Emma changing scene blurred I guess) I don't think DarkBlue changed that much his approach. Charlotte was always going to be the harder relation to have. It will probably come a bit close to the end, like a reward kind of thing. With Kaylah or Lucy, I think we can expect something soon, because they are not what we can call shy ^^

All of this are personal view point of the situation.

When I was out shooting this with Charlotte, she mentioned you Raminita; said you were doing a great job and to say thanks.

At least one person appreciates me. Most of the time it's just drooling users waiting for the Hillside Girls.

Hillside reminds me of Beverly Hills.
back on topic

Hmmm I do have the folder
but I might have to go back and update folder

Once updated I'll post Mega or Google Drive link

Well, thank goodness you have the choice between four different relationship paths. Every Lloyd woman has a designated one. Although we didn't get the final decider for Emma yet. And most likely Suzi.

I'm fine if Emma doesn't have a route but i hope Suzi does. I think a MCxEmma would be strange at this point. The MC never looked at her that way and she's pretty much oblivious about sex and relationships.
On the other hand Suzi needs screen time with the MC for anything to happen. I think the side model has been more time with him than Suzi.

just finished the game for the first time, and damn taking off the slow pace sometimes its really i great game, at this point idk if we will see a sexual relathionship between emma and the mc, and to be honest i dont think i wanna to see the dev to force them to develop one, i just wanna know how much content in hours we usually get with every update cause that was a big cliff hanger at the end so many unanswered questions (im sorry for my poor english not my first language).

Another person with no history here talking shit about Emma

It is such a tired trope of F95

You don't want someone, this is a single LI game, don't pick them.

But fuck off talking shit about what should or should not happen with MY Emma
We will make sweet, sweet love while she calls me Daddy -- But we aren't going to rush into it. It will be a romantic journey leading to the payoff. Inside her..... again...... and again

Real ladies and gentlemen.... we do both.

Here's a thing...Why don't you fuck off talking shit?
The guy's expressed his opinion, that's all.
Is your opinion on Emma the only one that's allowed on the thread?

 

[Thickgravy49]

thanks man, this dude prolly has an sad life, dont lose time with idiots like those.
perhaps can you answer my question ?

How much playing time in each update? I'm not entirely sure, mate. Possibly an hour? an hour and a half, maybe?

And just to say, don't be put-off expressing your opinion, just because you're new.
It doesn't matter, if you've got ten posts, or ten thousand, if you want to say something, say it.
Far too many bullies, fanboys and white-knighters on this forum.

 

[Thickgravy49]

The short time was not a reference to his account but to "this thread" (here)

Because anyone who has followed Hillside knows that multiple times has it been stated Emma is one of the LI

For some reason vast numbers of people within this thread (here) seem to not only not want Emma for themselves, but they want to PREACH on how it should be a path for no one. And since this is F95 purveyor of tremendous amounts of lewd fetishes they should not deign to PREACH here (the whole web site this time)

The tone of your initial post is ignorant, intimidatory and just plain rude.
Did you read it, before you posted it, or is that how you always express yourself?

 

[Thickgravy49]

I will always opt for RUDE.

Expect to get called-out on it, then.

 

[Ayhsel]

im in this site for a while now, but just don't feel confident enough with my english to express my opinion in the right way, but ill keep trying till i get used , thanks for the answer and for the incentive mate.

That is very clear English.

Can I suggest something different? Instead of being afraid of your English skills and not talk, keep talking to improve. And what better than in a random lair of perverts on the internet?

If anything, maybe include in your signature English is not your first language and that you are learning. While there are a lot of douchebags, myself included, most people are nice.

It has been verified multiple times that Charlotte, Emma, Lucy, and Suzi WILL be love interests in the game. This is not a harem game, so each LI will have a separate path. There will probably be consequences for being unfaithful to your chosen LI. Kaylah and Agent Fox can be "flings" on the side with obvious consequences to your chosen LI path. On the Emma path, the Dev has purposely set this up so the player can have a moral dilemma and conflict moving from a fatherly relationship to an intimate one with her. Lucy's path can also be heartbreaking to her if she loses another man (MC) to Charlotte. Not much can be speculated about Suzi's path as she's had little interaction with the MC yet. I expect that to change once she finds out about the MC saving Emma. Charlotte's path is obvious as you have to gain her trust.

Yeah, there is a slow burn and lots of drama, but that's what makes this game refreshingly different from the typical, no-brain fap-fests available.

Four years of what?!! the game was created two years ago The first time I heard about Hillside was from a friend it was on July 10, 2020, at this time DB had just released version 0.3, I started playing games with Hillside and although some of them came out before, none of Developers were faster in the rate of updates than DB.

Small world! I just took this scene and made a GIF out of it earlier today when I used it on someone.

Don't jump on him ^^

The Emma path will be here, despite what people wants. And since it's not a harem game, it's easily avoidable for those who don't want it (like me). But the path is available for a reason, for people to see how to develop that relationship.

But I'm guessing that you won't see her call you Daddy ^^ Like 6pak said, that is not the purpose of the path itself. It would be an instant cold shower for MC (the MC had immovable values here, that sometimes does not match the players)

How to get the first achievement for charlotte? "find the magazine" achievement

All of this are personal view point of the situation.

It's obvious writing lines specifically for romance is not DB's best suit. Which is important for meaningful lewd contents to play out smoothly.


Nude Emma may have been a mistake for him because he wasn't sure when, where and how to put it.

He is hardly good at it even after narrowing it down so he'd have an upper hand and do a better job at other parts (Majority) of the story. But that clearly haven't worked out great. It's not an out of context puzzle to put them all together like that.

An effective solution one was not try to put these pieces together so it'd fit but to understand them and do it better.

As a result, Suzi came out of character, not entirely but noticeable when observed. The choices between Emma and the MC are explored, I'm afraid the same fate awaits him as well.

You can see through his feeble effort to add such content here and there for the sake of being in F95ZONE, while posing the question, What do you think? Well, that's a confusing statement, I think we'll fight over it!

Yeah, while I am usually quick to ask what the day job of someone's English teacher was I usually refrain from doing so here among the perverts.

If you could only chose one? And why?
