Just going to start this game, but from a technical point of view and I appreciate artistic licence is in play here but, Jurors are never aloud to talk to the media about any case, prior during or post outcome as it can lead to contempt of court. Once a case is over there may be dispensation for jurors to make comments if it is in the public interest, such as jury tampering. Just sayin like......

If you're gonna enjoy this at all, the "this isn't how it works in the real world" has to go, quickly. It's basically a porn with slightly more complicated plot than usual that takes an extremely long time to develop.

Had to rebuild this myself with SDK for Mac - boots fine but after loading a save I get this:


Code:
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:

Happens every dialogue so game is unplayable for me. Have installed the WTMod also.

I generally hate slow-burns that never get anywhere each update, because those either are milking-machines or end up abandoned, leaving everyone blueballed.
And I don't understand why you say the plot takes a long time to develop, this game's pace has been perfect so far, IMO of course.

Because it's been 2 years and we're not even a week into the story yet. Given the amount of branching, I don't hold faith this will complete without a compromise at some point in quality, routes, or something else.

U mean he will accord importance to some characters than others?

I see, you're talking about development time, I thought you were discussing the in-game plot progression. I agree with you then... unfortunately, this game might prove too ambitious for a single dev, but I hope they will prove us wrong.

Yup, I 100% mean development time. I'm pretty satisfied with the pace of the story itself and would like to see more but like you, I think it's simply too ambitious.

Yeah I just don't see this getting completed without some characters getting abandoned, routes getting dropped, or something changing in general to speed up development time.
Yeah, i like the game, but the branching in this is something else...and then we have, i think, arround 15 different LI's.
I don't see this finished at this rate, not if the dev won't either reduce the branching rather radical, or cut some LI's paths.

Let's play a game: if you had to scrap characters out from future scenes, who would you choose?

My list, in order of removability (this is not my hate list, I like them all, and I would be sad to see any of them gone):
- Natalie
- Willow
- Mary Anne
- Jane
- Alice
- Jenny

Ok, this is a terrible game to play, just saying :) ... but I'll bite

First off, from what I remember, - Natalie is a side girl and already got the boot from the story (got fired).
Willow and Mary Anne… yeah, kind of agree, I don’t dislike them, but they just haven’t had enough screen time for me to get attached. If they vanished tomorrow (hypothetically), I wouldn’t exactly riot.
Alice, though? She’s already had a huge storyline. I’m not her biggest fan personally, but cutting her out at this point would make zero sense - unless we’re talking about some kind of early-ending route.
Jenny, well, she is at the bottom of my personal list :rolleyes:, I guess fine by me.

I know it's just hypothetical, but you can't get rid of anyone, they are on jury or hotel staff. If anyone is removed they would have to be replaced by another character. That space has to be filled.

If Alice was to be removed (for example), there is a lot of Alice fan's that are not going to be happy, so Dev would have to give player agency as to which LI was removed. There's too much branching already, can you imagine the extra branching if everyone could have a different 11 jury members. :oops:

Alice is way down the bottom of my fav list, and I personally wouldn't mind her being removed, but that would not make any sense for her to be gone.

Wait a second, the list was just meant to determine which character should be excluded from future sex scenes. The main plot would remain the same. There would still be a lot of branching, but you can't do much about that, unless the dev decides to drop or cut short a specific branch...

Regarding Alice, I know there must be a lot of fans of hers (I personally like her, but it's not at the top of my fav list), but since she's already received a fair amount of scenes, it wouldn't feel like she's being neglected or something

I'll bite. How to make friends and alienate people with one list. I'm gonna assume we are keeping the system with the MC's good guy or not personality. Trying to keep my bias out of this as best I can. When I say lose, I mean losing sexual storylines with that character, they obviously still need to be in the main plot.

For anyone reading, this is hypothetical and not actually happening:
