While I also think Connor's scenes are too vanilla for my taste I'd rather see him stepping up his game than be gone completely. Wish he would smile more, talk dirty and take the initiative for once because I'd love to see Jessica being torn between him in the other guys. It's too easy to choose someone else for anything sexual at this point and for romantic scenes they don't have enough chemistry. They need to do something exclusive together, like visiting a gloryhole or inviting the neighbor for some DP action.
Just played JOHN for the first time. Generally I haven't enjoyed female protagonist games because the few I've tried involve blackmail, mind control, or coercion where the mc isn't fully in command of her actions. I love that Jessica is a woman in an interesting career moving up the ladder and is in complete control of how "slutty" she wants to be in her personal and professional lives.

The other important aspect for me to enjoy a female protagonist is the cheating component. I can't get into it unless there is an oblivious husband or boyfriend. While Connor's sex scenes can be a little vanilla, I like that Jessica has opportunities to earn points with him to keep him content so he is obliviously strung along while she fucks around behind his back. Even this last scene with Connor was kind of hot because she's thinking about the fat mayor while fucking him. JOHN has introduced me to kinks I didn't know I had. I thought I'd be repulsed by having Jessica fuck around with wrinkled or chubby dudes, but I love it.

The writing, renders, story, and sexy situations in JOHN are so much better than the others I've tried. I mentioned on another thread I've been lurking on f95 for a while and downloading games without contributing anything in Patreon, etc. I'm putting together a small list of 4 or 5 I'm thinking of making my first donations to. I never thought I would consider a female protagonist game for that list. I was wrong.

Wasn't that what update .40 was? What is update .41? I've already played those scenes. Is .41 just a hotfix? If so when I download and try to install on Android I receive a message saying an error has occurred and file was not installed.

Nice to get a small update but from the sounds of it I'll pass on it and wait for the next big one which I'm guessing is going to be what? 0.45? Or are we going right to 0.5?

0.41 correct some writing errors, some new POVs and the last home scene with Conner

Carried out as an administrator? Antivirus deactivated?
Yes, I tried to disable the antivirus and run it as administrator. Does not help. The previous version never had such problems (the antivirus always worked and did not need to run from the administrator).

Came here to find you guys are having the same issue.
I'm on Windows 7 and JOHN 0.40 works but 0.41 is giving the same "This is not a valid Win 32 exe" I have tried both the 64 and JOHN-32.exe

Could also be because there are now using the latest Renpy version, I know that it doesn't support Windows XP, so could be the same reason for Windows 8.
Apparently the developer will a tough choice. Either he lose a significant part of the audience, or roll back to the old version

No, this looks like a bad release that is being shared.

Does 0.41 work for anyone ? can you list your Windows Version ?
The User just a page back is having issues on Windows 10!

The old Ren'Py version used software render and the new version use user's hardware. Means, if the game won't start then the game can't access the required library in the "lib" folder. Either try to launch the game by holding left-shift key or copy over JOHN's "game" folder and paste it into another game, which was build with the old Ren'Py version (7.3.5).

I was talking about the game moving forward, not the scenes that are already in there. The one I replied to wanted to ditch the boyfriend which I don't think is a good idea. Besides, some people like Connor or Jessica being faithful so him becoming more interesting as a character would enrich both paths. When Jessica can't get the mayor out of her head despite Connor bringing his A game we would all win. :LUL:
