Another one is the reason, Boobs to the face :

My fault,

I should not have let darkhound1 test drive the office breast bump.
What the heck am I going to tell Joy ...

He looks happy where he is now?
Sakura does not mind?
We hope to get him unstuck?

I think this game could really benefit from an option to ask the girls for sex when you visit their rooms cuz right now doing that is kinda pointless. Maybe when you have max affection with them or something? Just a thought!



Love the game btw

Not sure how far along in the game you are, but I'm guessing not that far. That's only based on your rank of 'New Member'. I bring it up, because it might have some bearing on your post. The benefit you mention is only a plus if the girl answers 'Yes' which would open up some possibilities for future scenes I guess, but running around visiting the girls' rooms just to ask for sex kind of limits the other actions in the game. In your scenario of using 'max affection' or some other attribute, one would just need the appropriate console code to max everything out and then never leave the hallways. That might be an over simplification, but you get the idea.

Anyway, I believe the developer realized that there were/are times when the MC need the ability to talk with the girl one on one and rather then have to wait or send the others off to change their attire, it was easier to have them just visit the girl's room. The MC receives some valuable clues and advice from some of the girls, plus it also allows the MC to schedule future meetings with the girl(s) in various locations.

Glad you're enjoying the game.

You make a great point actually, I never really thought of it like that! I guess I'm just used to other sandbox games having the option to ask the girls for sex when you max them out. For me personally, I enjoy having that option and I think it would make the game even more enjoyable from my perspective, but that's just my opinion!



Also not sure why it still says I'm a new member I've been on here for about a year or so.

Maybe it has something to do with the number of Posts/Likes one has. I have no clue what F95Zone uses to determine rank.

I might add a little context to Bantry's already comprehensive post (and correct me if I'm wrong Bantry). As I recall in the VERY early versions of the game, and well before we had the phone capability we enjoy now, there wasn't a mechanism to direct meetings w/the girls at any specific time or location. You had to randomly catch girl X at location X to trigger event X. So it was more grindy back then as a result. Fortunately over time darkhound1 built in a couple of genius solutions to address this problem and progress the game by giving the MC/player more control. First, once you hack the girl's bio implants, you can find their location anywhere through your phone. Second, once you find the girls, you can go to that specific place and ask them directly to meet you at the gym, pool, nightbar, etc., or wherever you need to send them to participate in their events/activities, which you can now find and target through your phone or the cheat mod.

I pretty loved that game it could be the pioneer of next generation simdating games. But in the other hand task system comes a little bit difficult to me. Keep develope it, great work!

Yes! It's every man's dream being on an island with many incredible adorable women. Far better than it, them all there for serving you. So much unrealistic
My greatest goal, yes..

p.s: As a 5'11-6ft guy, why is that girls very tall don't take down my morale anymore please

 

[darkhound1]

I pretty loved that game it could be the pioneer of next generation simdating games. But in the other hand task system comes a little bit difficult to me. Keep develope it, great work!

Thanks for the general praise
Can you explain why or what you find difficult concerning the current task system?

 

[WadeWilsoon]

Thanks for the general praise

Well.. It's difficult to play by one hand joking. Difficulty is that there is many complicated events. For example you have to follow route, have to keep stabile affection and love skill, have to take pill before, have to find her in right place etc. to bang a girl. Hard to explain. It's like i'm boring after a while and playing like GTA without missions We're used to play with detailed guides. Maybe i don't pay attention enough. Not only for this game, i've played many games like that nowadays and perhabs this a general situation for me. Well, i owe you a more spesific review. I will make it this night.

I'm not sure there is a 'perfect' game play model or task system. For every player that wants things simple, there are an equal number that enjoy the discovering and puzzling out the needed steps/requirements to complete an achievement. I fall in the latter group and games where the player goes from point A to point B, in my opinion, do not hold my interest for long, nor are they very compelling. Yes, Holiday Island is an 'Adult Game' and we all want to bang our brains out, but one of the characteristics of the game that I find most compelling can be found in this statement from the developer:

"Holiday Island has a relationship and stats system for you and your ravishing fellow island guests. The quality of your relationships is the key to your progress. The game is constantly updating the parameters for traits such as: love, affection, anger, strength, charm and endurance. Just like in real life you will get hungry, horny, drunk and need to sleep! Winning over the hearts of all of these busty knockouts takes work!"​

Just my two cents.

F95Zone's titles (New Member, Newbie, Member, Active Member, Well-Known Member and Devoted Member) is yes, based on Posts, but i have to say it maybe also needs to reflect on when the user first starts and interacts on the site.

I have been on here since Feb 2018 and my title has been "Newbie" for a while now despite having approx. 30 posts, Reaction score 119, and Trophy points 63.

 

[DuckSwim]

Time is not a valid factor for titles for a number of reasons, amongst others that it would make ghost, troll and zero contribution leecher accounts advance despite having 1/0 state.

Using posts is a proxy for engagement and contribution.
It might be a bad one, but outside of having a composite system based on several criteria, is as good as can be expected.

It is not really all that important as the like system is the actual membership status and interaction "score".

If you have 34/119 from 2018 then it is obvious enough that while you don't post much (less than 1 post pr. 20 days) it is probably something people like (1 post to 4ish likes ratio).

Makes sense that way.
Thanks for explaining DuckSwim.

Being based of number of Posts & Likes is a good indication of status on the site.
It was just more the "Amendments to Constitution of The 'Zone:" states it to be all about posts which if just the number of posts would be easy for a spammer/troll to quickly get high up by just posting anything a lot of times.

Yes you are right in saying not use time as a factor, you have successfully changed my opinion on the matter.

 

[DuckSwim]

A little something while 0.2 is getting closer.

Back from work she found a surprise.
On her bed, sweets, flowers and something nice.

The words where short and precise,

Wishing you were here
And below Joy's "all clear".

[Bantry]

She's a poorly paid office worker, thus she has to buy the sweater on the installment plan. Maybe next paycheck she can afford the lower half. Either that, or Jennifer hasn't finished her knitting classes.
