I don't think this has anything to do specifically with Nyx. I think it is an issue with how visual novels are released and accessed. There are only a handful of visual novel developers that release completed games. The rest release in episodes. Some of them prefer and allow complete early access, while others only tolerate it or are completely incapable of stopping it due to sites like these. That is where the problem lies. If we did not have a way to access these unfinished, unpolished works, then we would not really know what is going on behind the scenes. We would be unaware of how long it takes. Or how many changes it goes through. We would see the finished product and that would be it.
There would be way fewer VN releases, because most of them would be abandoned beforehand when creators realize how much work it is without "immediate" compensation in money and incentive to continue.

No doubt, how open she is about everything makes her planning failures obvious and open to criticism.
Not only what we've been discussing but how she changed the characters roles and everything else... being that open gives people(like me :cool: ) easy targets.
I still stand by what i said, if she's unhappy with the scene take some extra time and change what's needed now before release.
Personally I love that transparency. Better than saying nothing or worse making (false) excuses because no progress were made.

Easy avoidable? The anti-NTR-brigade is weird. There is always someone who smells NTR somewhere and then complains about it. I've read the most ridiculous definitions of NTR and everyone insists their interpretation of NTR is the only correct definition. Nothing at all is avoidable. To be honest, I now consider the whole NTR topic to be a large-scale trolling that just wants to annoy the devs. Admittedly, I'll never understand how one can be so fragile that one can't stand virtual girls in an AVN if they don't date the MC and have another character as a partner instead. How gamma can one be?

Do not get me wrong. I have absolutely no problem with fetishes or kinks. If someone has the anti-NTR fetish, I'm fine with that as well as the NTR fetish. I just find it annoying that this particular bubble is bugging every damn AVN and making demands on the respective devs, which content absolutely shouldn't happen.
Remember that one time when a dude was so upset that Erynn didn't save her virginity for the MC even when he was gone for five years that he rage quit and deleted Intertwined? He complained that Erynn was "unfaithful" to MC, even though the dude she banged was her boyfriend at the time.

I guess for some folks, any whiff of an LI having sex with someone other than the MC counts as "NTR" even though that man is a boyfriend or husband.

I think Nyx or just developers in general post about challenges of VN development because those updates are intended for patrons. Free downloaders gets to read it because it gets posted but the intended readers are financial backers.

It's up to the individual dev whether they share dev updates or not but I for one, is pretty impressed with how often Zero End dev posts regular updates.

No, it's not. There're plenty really good harem games here which are enjoyable because the story is made for a harem. If this story would go down this path it would destroy the whole game.

Dude, you just re-triggered everyone! :ROFLMAO:
I already want to kill this ass. And if the guy she was with knew it was being filmed, I want to cut off his junk and feed it to Ethan. I'm feeling generous so, I will leave it at that.
and then cut off Ethans and feed that to Zach for good measure

It's not a path i would favor in my "main" playthrough, but it's certainly something daring to explore in alternative runs.
Wether because of attachment to the character or fear of the "WE ARE GETTING CUCKED(despite this being easily avoidable)" crowd, she went for vanilla.

I feel like this isn't the only example where personal attachment to the characters may have hurt the story, things like Layla taking being ditched for her sister without any issues felt weird and detached, Nyx can write better than this, i know, i've seen it... maybe comes from not wanting to see her characters looking like a crazy emotional mess that some players will make fun of.
For all the teasing that things will go balistic if these girls find out about each other, there's awful little fireworks.

I will also say that despite this game giving you the option to be a manwhore that flirts with every girl in town, it doesn't do it well.
When you are with a girl the game defaults to you caring deeply about this girl and not to "i want to get laid, and i will lie and deceive for it".
The sloooooow burns(and how patient our guy always is with it) aren't suited to a guy that just wants to sleep around.



The fact that Nyx herself says, "i'm not happy with this scene, it's gonna be released in this state anyways and i will change it at later date" makes it sound like poor planning, maybe re-address this now, do the necessary nips and tucks before releasing?
Not to mention she already hinted that there's one specific occurance on the MC-Erynn-Alexis triangle that she means to change from past chapters, and she said that after she had just released a reboot version...
For the enormous amount of 'Layla is jealous' shots in the game, I would have assumed a yandere-eque possible path, but she seems ok with just taking it after a while which is just sad, since she seems like good people.

Gabi deserves more strength
And would be cool to Analyze the male characters
you mean the Mc Or Zack ? xD lol :LOL: :ROFLMAO::LOL:
it would be easy to give them Titles
Let's start with the bad
Ethan (THE BULLY PUSSY)
Zack (THE SD&SB{SMALL DICK & SMALL BRAIN}) Or (THE PIG SHIT)
John (THE BIKER LION)
MC Father (THE HUNTER SEDUCER)
MC I would say That up to every player how he play and go with option
and about Gabi I didn't see her play any sport and also her body say that she's not into sport other wise she would be like Lexi mom or even the Mc mother or Melissa
