This game seriously needs a HUGE wiki update or some kind of guide or some actual ingame dialog with hints.
Its insanely annoying to wander around almost absolutely clueless as to what the game has to offer. How to activate things, where to go to see content. And when searching you find out there is hidden stats you cant see or are told about, but actually triggers things.
The unintuitive ways things are put into the game, needs its seperate guide. An example is the computer (how to install it, that it does absolutely nothing for the game, and costs 10.000). The unintuitive way you meet many of the people, need to see random tv to trigger someone. you meet a girl at bar at hours you would normally in this type of game need to sleep. Or the this girl can only be met on rainy/stormy days from the hours of 5pm to 8pm by driving to town, when intuitively, thats the time you go the other way (this should have been an all day event, or at least morning)
The way the game teaches you there is only two effective timezones. When ppl sleep or when theres something to do... and then throws in random events that are time sensitive to the hour. When you work, doesnt matter. When you sleep, doesnt matter. Do you need to eat, nah. Nothing is restricted to time... and then BAM way into the game, events gets time triggered.
The experience thus far, grind on grind with no clue how to play it. Then you find something, and grind for ages for it... and it cant trigger cause hidden stats/events etc. So you go back to grind ... and then some more grind to see if that has any effect.
And just to be clear.. the GRIND is real. most things you can do has a 1 point effect. And the stats are from 0 to 1000.... for all of them. Yes some start in the middle... but thats still 500 things to do PER slave, not to forget, you can also get negative returns.. The sheer stupidity of having to do 500ish (even though most start at 200 points or close to) repetitions per slave is just mindbogling. And dont forget, every single one of those increases are random events... entirely random. So you might get the chance to increase it 1 point that day, simply because it doesnt appear.....
There NEEDS to be a way for the player to trigger these, instead of this randomness.
Or the, you get $20 for working (promotion didnt increase this), and still things costs... 5000 - 10000- 15000....
Read somewhere by someone random, just go to every room with every slave at random times to see if something new happens... thats 10 slaves with almost 50 localities(only counting mansion) with 24 trigger hours ..... yeah.. that really does sound feasible and not grindy as fuck?
