If this new update is not gonna affect older saves, from which moment of gameplay does it work? E.g is it all different if I play from the beginning?

Did you play the game yet? If so, you should have noticed most of its content is a sandbox, meaning you can repeat most scenes over and over. If an old scene gets reworked/rerendered, its achievement in your phone usually gets locked again so you'll see you should repeat it. I'm not sure if any older non-repeatable events (which I would call main story) will be affected this update, you can check for yourself though in the latest development news that Bantry posted one page back. Unlikely it'd be worth to replay from the beginning to see a few updated renders imo, but that's for yourself to decide obviously.

Of the longer-standing girls (i.e. not introduced with the lab), there's Aly, Lacey and Mercedes who you can't yet have penetrative vaginal sex with. :cry:

Mercedes doesn't achieve The 'Penetration Queen' status as Lacy.
Aly, pretty much send off the island ASAP if and when she's there on a test-run.
Short-stack and Amy are needed content-unlocks on others.

Other'wise, my test run's would never have them on the island by choice.

Kinda have to agree on Aly, she really could use a lot more content (and a re-render - other girls have already been re-rendered despite far better original images) and isn't worth her valuable place on the island.
Lacey, especially post re-render, is gorgeous and certainly worth seeing all her content before dropping her.

We're going to get some flak for this! ;)

Ah well, presume i'm detested by even the Dev(s) here on this thread and i'm fine with that.
Lacy's body type is nice, it's her BIG Bug'Eyes make me want to draw Insect'anenna on her(not attractive).
Aly just annoy's me but, Amy and Short-Stack i'd frend'zone permanently without hesitation.

As high'end Ladies of the Night, they cross boundaries One's would never do off'duty.
Even 'on the Job', going beyond unacceptable with all due respects (or rather, Lack of them).
As much as i DO Agree with You on the renders, some of them (Not ALL) are improved.

Very Nicely, indeed.

Does anyone know?

Wherever your last 'save' left off. Meaning that if your last save had all the achievements completed, when you do the update, the only non-completed or new stuff will show on your phone as incomplete. However, keep in mind that previous stuff that has been reworked, new images, dialogue, etc. will show as new content or uncompleted achievements. At least that is how it has always been in the past.

I start a new game from the beginning with each major update. With the Companion Guide, Hints and Requirements already on the phone, etc. I've found I can complete the game from start to finish in two weeks or less with an hour or two of game play each day. That's just me, do as you wish.

In the main picture of the game on the first page, are the two girls on the right (the one wearing red next to Desire and the last one on the right wearing glasses ) are they in the game or were they scrapped?
