Oof, does this game ever need a Wiki
I also play only the dom route(s).As I think, everything written is better put under a spoiler, because it is, in fact, a brief retelling of the plot of the game (quite a bit of it). As for
For all of the sisters who are willing to kill their competition, killing a non-allied Olivia is indeed the logical first step
I disagree. It may be a logical first step for Juliette, but Alessandra acts in a much more subtle way (at least for now). In any case, if you played the dom route,

The one who got his hair dyed pink by juliette.
In all my dom playthroughs, I always let that "boss" loose (even when playing evil dom route). Well, now what you said makes sense to me. I agree, this kind of Olivia Juliette would definitely be feared with all the possible consequences of that.

I always turn him into furniture because that gets the most points, but yea between the ability to kill off that dude and the ability to kill off the homeless workers, Olivia can be turned into quite the sadistic killing machine

On the spectrum of willingness to kill, Alessandra and Juliette are tied; what differentiates them is Juliette will do it just out of fun and enjoyment, so she won't instigate a "boring" kill, whereas Alessandra is more like a bull, mowing down anyone who gets in her way.
Juliettes ahead of everybody else when it comes to murder, if anything, Alessandra prefers to keep people alive cuz she lives for the torture. I doubt she's trying to kill Olivia, otherwise, she wouldn't be planting anti-Olivia seeds in Kanes head

Wouldn't that be WHY she's trying to build animosity between Kane and Olivia? Hell hath no fury like a loyal Dom Kane going after whoever killed his "sister", likely the most dangerous piece in the game (especially if I'm playing). Therefore, making sure that a rising-in-power-brother is at least apathetic, if not grateful, for the death of his childhood sister, would be the necessary course of action in covering one's bases before instigating a critical strike.

This would be the most logic and inteligent thing to do, first try to convert Kane into your side and after go for Olivia, or try to kill Kane and then only have to fight againts an alone Olivia. All that if we do not take into account the possible alliances for each sister and Kane.

This war has to be fucking chaotic and bloody, so much fury and accumulated resentment.

If she was that worried about Kane and as kill hungry as implied, she'd just kill kane before he got that power. She's playing the long game of trying to isolate kane and use him. No idea for what yet as Im not totally convinced she wants power

It's hard to decipher what Tess actually has planned behind the scenes, and what is just happenstance for the sake of gameplay. Reasonably, there seems to be something that's driving the sisters to believe Kane winning the Gambit is better for each of their personal ambitions than him failing and defaulting the situation to a battle arena. Again, this may be just simplicity for player experience, or Tess actually has a condition in the Gambit rules to shield Kane, though not protect him. Tess has never revealed the full rules of the Gambit so we don't know what bounds the sisters' actions to specific behaviors. There may be a clause or something in there stating anyone who kills Kane, or sabotages his ascension, or unreasonablely stunts his progress, will be immediately disqualified, and possibly [we are talking about sadists] exiled from the company/to the desert, or worse: be made the lowest rank in their own hierarchy, thus a plaything to everyone they ever tortured. I don't know, their behavior towards Kane feels weird in comparison to their unfettered behaviors and personal ambitions, which suggests a strong motivator to change their tune when dealing with him.

I work in IT, and the struggle with backups is always pricetag: how much is worth the cost, especially if it's a subscription. Considering Tess has at least two other real jobs (i.e. contracted salaries, and income sources she can put on a resume) with one of them being her own business, guess which projects will be prioritized in her backup subscription and which will be "worth the risk" to leave unbacked up, especially if one of those projects is a sponsored hobby. She could quit the game right now, and actually increase her income due to more time dedicated to her actual employment, so be nice. From what I understand, the game project itself was "backed up", and recovered, while the lost asset library she specifically mentioned included things like expressions, like a specific way that a character smiled, had to be identified as lost, and then reacquired.

As for content, remember that she's making at least 3x, if not 4x, as much content as you see on an individual playthrough due to the diverging paths (D/S, G/E, 4 Sponsors, secondary girl relationships, K-rank, etc.), so just because it may not seem like much in an individual update, remember that you're seeing only about a third of the update. Of course said third tends to be rather beefy anyway.
You thought that I wasn't being nice saying I expected it to be backed up, with the reasoning that the quality of her content requires a lot of forethought and planning? The thing you literally go onto describe? You don't have to white knight dude, and a 1 TB OneDrive business subscription is a fiver a month. Why is it every time I comment on this thread, at least one of you jagoffs decide to step up 'defend' Tess from any perceived slight, go touch grass.

Are you kink shaming if you find the characters crazy psychopaths, you dislike rape, torture, humiliation, necrophilia(!). Are those actually kinks? Yeah, i know it's a fictional world but still... there's a thin line between controversial and repulsive...

Torture and murder in KG, in my opinion, is not a fetish/kink. It's just an artistic way (method) of creating more tension in the story, and at the same time revealing the disgusting character traits inherent in some characters, like Juliette or Alessandra. In my opinion, most players love KG for its branching and intriguing plot, deep dialog and accompanying interesting BDSM sex scenes incl.femdom or maledom (depending on the path chosen). As for rape and necrophilia, I haven't seen it in KG and I don't know why you would think there is such content here. But in general, rape and humiliation it's definitely a fetish/kinks, and even outside of the power exchange topic it's quite popular among many players. And in general, if you take the question seriously and thoughtfully, you could write a mini-dissertation about psychology, psyche and human nature here. But for that we need a doctor with a degree. :)

In any case, nobody has canceled sublimation yet, and letting off steam and your dark desires by realizing them on fictional characters is definitely better than trying to censor everything, pushing individual unstable people to crimes in the real world.

so the update will available on january 2024???
There are no roadmap updates on discord, however I don't think the release of the first part of 0.8 will be that delayed. Patreon-subscribed patrons of the game may know something, but judging by a discord post from her assistant

a new Tess's post regarding the update's release plans should be published soon. Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic, but given all the events that have happened and successfully overcome them, I'm hoping that part 1 will be released in November or early December.
