Personally, I think the cop storyline needs a little fine tuning to be more realistic.
It does. As does the character work. It's a competently written story but it's not fantastic.

I'm saying the story can make characters interesting. If you take Emma and you just have a slice of life, where she's sitting in her room chewing gum, that won't give you opportunities for her to shine compared to what she'll do in a stressful situation and it won't give the main character opportunities to be Superman-esque.

It's why guys role their eyes at most rom-com's but they perk up watching Kyle Reese and Sarah Conner form a relationship fighting off a Terminator. The characters are interesting and you get to explore a lot about them because they're put in an interesting situation.

This VN I find an interesting distraction, definitely above most AVN's posted here in quality. I wouldn't put it in my top 10 though. Wait, do I have a top 10? There's a lot of crap on this site... :LOL:

Honestly, I don't like superman stories I prefer wholesome romance and stuff like that, so I hope we get that with Emma.
Give me a rom-com any day.

I would love Suzy to be my bodyguard.

And all those things we would be doing under the excuse of hand-to-hand lessons. Mmmm...
Clever!
Normally, Suzi would kill you if you try anything on her.
But there, you are her client, and she must protect you.
She can't harm you!
Well... unless she resigns :LOL:

Hi, guys.
First off, I'd like to thank you all for your recent comments and messages of support. I appreciate every one of them, and I'm sorry I haven't been able to reply to all of them personally.
I wanted to let you know that billing will remain paused for June. Also, I will be away on holiday for a week starting next Friday. Hopefully, a break and change of scenery will do me some good and I'll return in a better state of mind.
Regarding the second half of v0.15, it won't take long to complete, I just can't get it done until I'm feeling better.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
DB

I hope DB has a nice holiday.
I'll admit I'm still worried that we'll eventually see that awful yellow prefix next to the game.
But all I'll hope for right now is that DB is able to get to a good place in his life.
not gonna lie if that happens I won't lose hope right away unless DB says so because ive seen games come back or just take to long but get it cause of f95 rules. I usually gives games something like 6 months - a year before i just lose hope after getting that abandoned mark but that's just me

I am on fuck it side usually but there are few exceptions. Like Mad World, I'll always check if we ever have something new. I hope it won't come to that but if ever such a thing happens, Hillside will be like that too.
