Yeah, waiting on a freebie definitely is painful.

If only life offered a ton of other options for one to do while waiting.....
easier said than done when it's something constantly on your mind haha but once that honeymoon phase of thinking of something is over pretty easy to move on wait patiently.

As much as I would love it if Nyx released the friday "beach" day with Erynn and Valeria now. I think the bitching and complaining from the people who don't have scenes with their personal favourite, would annoy the hell out of me. So as much as it pains me to wait, I think I would rather wait until another day or two have been developed.
I guess I fall under that category, though my whining wouldn't be so loud :p.
I already "survived" the training camp scenario where my choice in LI resulted in a dry spell, centered around characters I didn't choose to romance at all - and it was not a great experience, let me tell you. Can't imagine how it felt for people that had to actually bear through that as it was actively developed (was that all in a single update or did that period take several updates?)

I understand the developer has to "pick their battles" when it comes to path development, but maybe we shouldn't have so many LIs that all of them can't get a piece of the action in every update, now should we? be real guys, the number of LIs in games like these is just unnecessary and strangles development...

I may post here, as others here share the love I have for the game and we have a laugh while waiting, but I am a patron of Nyx as well as my other top 5 AVN's so no I don't wait on a freebie...

Yeah I agree with you. I think that the number of LI's has grown too much and could do with being shortened to help development time. I mean imagine how long the endings alone are going to take? Endings for Erynn, Alexis, Layla, Elena, Nikki, Cara, Valeria then maybe even Iris, Gabi, Melissa, Brooke and I'm sure I've missed some.

Nyx said one of the characters was going to die and I don't read anyone commenting on it.

And I don't know why but my impression is that that character will be Iris.

If it's a female character im thinking it's gonna be Brooke or Iris tbh , maybe Gabi but I doubt it.

If it's a LI I think it's gonna be multiple as in your choices determine who will die between like Alexis or Erynn for example

I also feel like Iris may do something stupid to try and help Erynn get away from Ethan, especially after we see her upset after listening in on our conversation with John. We've seen Iris in action and how she can manipulate most men and situations around her. I just hope that nothing happens to her, I like Iris.

You might be onto something. She deliberately went against John's wishes/demands to listen to the conversation and clearly got upset. I don't think it's just that she needs to know everything (although that's probably why she started listening). I've been waiting ever since that scene to see what comes of it.

Half of those are not LI. For a Patreon, you're not very informed of who the actual confirmed LI's are....

if we believed what nyx says cast would be bit thin now.
The problem is that a lot of it was just jokes with users in the Discord, which these users understood, but were then spread completely without context on Reddit or here, e.g. the statement that Nikki should die. All these stories have taken on a life of their own. You can see it here in the thread. 80% of the facts being spread here about Nyx's plans are hokum. Originated from rumors and misrepresented statements. Plus the constant belief that Nyx “does everything to create drama” and “she loves to mess with the players”.

There is drama in the game that is the main plot (Erynn/Alexis, Erynn blackmail situation, Layla/Lucas, MC/Andres, etc. pp.) but you can play the game completely without drama between the girls. The only exception is Layla/Elena, but this is due to the special relationship between these two. It's always up to the players to decide whether to go girl hunting and make their decisions based on RP or just NOT let MC flirt. It is easily possible to have Erynn, Alexis, Layla,... just send all the girls to the friend zone without having to play MC like an asshole. In the case of Valeria, it's even the easiest, since you have to constantly make the “right” choices if you want to play her path. Hard to do without a walkthrough.

Also the statement “Nyx messes with players”. There are constant hints and information in the game for all relevant storylines. Sometimes these are just a simple reaction of a character to a statement. Now, if you only play the game superficially and keep clicking accordingly, the “revelations” come as quite a surprise to some players. This then leads to statements that this was then “constructed to create drama”. Which again ignores the fact that all the clues and information were already integrated into the game a few updates ago. Many players also only play one or two paths, which denies them a lot of content that can also provide information. Also, some players only play from update to update and have obviously forgotten or confused many things in the plot. You can easily recognize such players by the fact that they can't get the names of the characters right. This proves how little they have studied the game. Be that as it may. Not a single “reveal” in the game was an unexpected surprise. You sometimes wondered how you could have missed the clues, though. But still, many players act as if Nyx is basing the story on the theories and suspicions that players are expressing somewhere on the internet, only to change the story completely. Sorry, but that's just nonsense if you look at the entire development history of the game and the game itself.

LSC82 Has also mentioned that once Ethan checks out John's client background story being fake, Ethan and the goons might beat up John (with Iris as collateral damage), or I think, possibly, Iris finds John beaten up and tries to avenge John.
