To be fair, this DLC does what the other side jobs accomplished. A: A costume theme. B: B: sexual act with said costume. C: mini game with art pertaining to the setting.
Would say actually fairly the opposite. This Sidejob falls in the same Trap, the Gloryhole Sidejob fell. No meanigful Gameplay at all, while ignoring a Core Mechanik of the Game. Gloryhole and Gym Sidejob both are just you looking at pretty pictures. What you actually do doesn't really matter at all.

The Waitress (going around giving the ordered drinks)/Receptionist (processing visitors)/Stripper (paying attention to the moves patreons want to see) Sidejobs have a clear Gameplay Loop of what you should do and it comes with dangers while doing it but they also come with a Reward doing them. Even for Slut Karryn they offer a Gameplay Loop.

Waitress you can expose your Tits for Money, can make out with Prisoners for money etc and try to get the Sex Scene at the end for extra pay.

Receptionist Side Job falls a little bit Short on the Slut Karryn for Gameplay Stuff but it at least sells a nice Fantasy even though I would have liked it, if Slut Karryn would have been fleshed out more there.

Slut Stripper falls off more, since Private Dance Show should have been continuation of the Normal Minigame with Lapdance stuff and so on but again at least you can make extra money at the end even if it is just a glorified Defeat Scene.

Now look at Gloryhole and Gym Sidejob. What is actually the Gameplay here? You are just picking whatever Sexskill you want to use. That is it. Even something basic as, Using Observe to read the eyes of a Prisoner to get a Dialog like "Awwww, he is looking at my Tits... well I know what he wants" so if you then give him a Boobjob it gives you some sort of a Bonus, would at least add some sort of Gameplay. But no just like with Gloryhole you do whatever until you are done and that's that. If I just want to look at pretty pictures, I don't need to play a Game.

Nail on the head. The entire core of the game is that everything is a battle against the prisoners who are trying to corrupt Karryn, even the sidejobs. Thus, everything in the game uses the battle interface, even the defeat scenes. Earlier on Rem said that the waitress job is a 'trap' in order to corrupt pure(er) Karryns, but really it's just more of a trap than say the receptionist job, because that job is also a trap, they all are. The whole prison is. Eventually, Karryn will be corrupted while just being a receptionist same as the waitress, because the jobs are also battles against the prisoners.

In the gym and gloryhole minigames, there is no battle. The strip-show has some minor battle aspects, but since it's a strip-show I'm inclined to let it get away with being less of a battle against corruption (although oddly enough it's one of the only jobs where sex can absolutely never happen unless the player chooses to go to the VIP room). The gym could easily have supported the battle concept, and the fact that it doesn't means it ultimately fails the premise of the game.

I'm sorry to say this, but I believe it's time to let go guys.

let's not forget to appreciate what Rem did here. he overcame some major challenges. our veteran players might remember how hard he worked and how we got like 4-5 different versions of a build in one fucking day. or when he tried to port the entire game to a new system. or how happy (and worried) we were when they decided they want to use VAs. that's a lot of dedication and passion in a field where most game devs (mostly) just give up or try their best to milk fans.

what we have rn is definitely one of the best games on the entire forum. yes, it has problems for sure. yes, it can be a lot better. but it's also ok to understand sometimes people just lose interest and want to go on. you can't create the same passion out of thin air.

the game has endings, it's mod-friendly and doesn't have that many game-crashing bugs (at least before the recent update and I'm sure it will be fixed). the community can take the helm. Rem proved to be reliable to at least complete H-games and I think we can let him go for a new journey.

have fun and happy fapping everyone! :coffee:

For fun here's two gym scenarios that would have fit the battle format of the game.

The system that's currently in the game where Karryn is spotting for prisoners could almost certainly also be reworked to being a battle (Karryn has to keep the prisoner's attention off of her body, stop them getting hard, make them focus on lifting, but can get distracted by prisoner's chat and erections), but there's nothing wrong with it functioning mainly for sluttier Karryns, it's just there's currently only content for slutty karryns.

Guys don't expect the gym job to change in any way. This beta is for bugs and nothing else. Just as rem told us not to request any new scenes for the bar side job rework don't expect anything here. They are done with this game. Your only hope for continued content now are the modders.

Edit - Shockingly I was completely wrong and Rem is postponing release... wow I never expected this

Thats not all true, the whole point of the feedback channel in the discord of theirs was for exactly that. Feedback. Until they have said the gym job won't change in anyway then we don't know what to expect. remember this update releases to the public next week (No date available). it is only Wednesday. Things can shift.

Edit- Hell the entire feedback channel TDLR is that it doesn't feel like it took anything from the base game core loop and used it. Everyone likes the gym concept, but its actual implementation is lackluster with once again the general consensus, this doesn't feel like Karryn Prison it feels generic.

I think they'd be complaining about the combat as a whole if that was the case but clearly people like you can't fathom any opinions contrary to yours, you always need to jump in to try to dismiss them.
I don't want to start an argument, Red, but you don't get to say that I jump in to contrast an opinion when you're constantly saying how rushed you find this game and belittle anyone who says otherwise. The irony of your comment is astounding. The last time I commented in here was on September 2nd (two full months ago). "Always" is a stretch. I don't comment like I used to because how tiring your routine is. Other than that, you're very helpful answering questions.

As for the comment I quoted, they mention how most jobs offer "generic" defeats but have unique sex positions. I acknowledge KP isn't for everyone but I don't think the side-jobs and their defeats are bad. I'd love to see people come up with unique minigames that have replay value. I find myself playing the Waitress job again and again.

As much as I love this game I actually won't be getting the gym DLC. People here have been saying it's only benefiting slutty Karryn, which is the polar opposite of how I like to play. If there's no corruption aspect then I'm not interested. It's disappointing but I wasn't hyping the gym DLC up that much in the first place. I'm actually not into the Stripper job, too. I think the 1st floor jobs are the best.

Anyway, no ill feelings. End of the day this is just a porn game. Not worth losing sleep over it. (y)

(edit: I'm also reading the gym-beta-feedback channel on their Discord as NekoPi mentioned above. If Rem won't read the forum here, he'll definitely read his own server. I'm happy people can openly criticize (constructively) the game to the dev. It'll be interesting to see how he takes this feedback.)

I keep getting these errors:
Failed to load: img/karryn/defeated_level3/leftarm_naked2.png
Failed to load: img/karryn/defeated_level3/eyebrows_down_nico2.png
Failed to load: img/karryn/defeated_level3/body_2.png
Failed to load: img/karryn/defeated_level3/leftarm_naked2.png
Failed to load: img/karryn/defeated_level3/eyes_down_tojil.png
But this only happens in 1 of my save files, the one that is 100% complete. When I load my savefile before beating level3 the game loads normally. Also this only happens after I patch the DLC into the game. I never get these errors with 1.06b.
If you want to test my savefile it has 17 hours, around 300 slut level and almost everything maxed out.

load the save file before lvl 3, save over file 1 (if u can idk what data you have and if u can afford to lose it) because its sounds like the save might be corrupted from that point but can be saved by saving over it with one that isn't.

Edit- Opening it up, it may be giving errors due to mod conflicts. Remember this is not officially out, most of the mods arent fully updated, and if they are check the discord for the mods u use to get the new updates.
