Someone mentioned it and you saw the answer but I'll be adding more so you understand the scope. Someone is actively re-doing all of the renders, all of the positions, all of the bodytypes, all of the faces, and all of the clothing for that These won't be the exact same as currently in the game, as Vren never shared the files or the references for the faces / bodies / positions, so some tweaking will also need to happen coding wise so that the clothing fits.
But just so you understand, last time the person in charge spoke of this, they were done of about 50 000 rendering images. And they were far from done. So you can imagine why it takes so much time. Of course, it's not full renders like VN type stuff where they need to render a whole 1920x1080 scene with the environnement and the male and stuff. But still you can see why and how it takes a lot of time to do.
The endgoal, apart from having newer better visuals, will also be that we will know all the references used for the faces, clothing and can have the exact position files, so, it will enable us to pitch in and create newer positions, add newer clothing (like I would love to see pantyhose, stockings are great but pantyhose...) and bodytypes all that. And there are some positions that are already being thought of by the person in charge, like thighfuck for example.
Hope you understand now the scope of it, and also understand that it IS being currently worked on. So don't lose hope on that.
Yes. I've just finished yesterday an endgame serum that increases serum tolerance to be way higher, that I've submitted to be added to the dev branch (and a recent update also changed the serum tolerance to be randomized for most characters -except some unique ones -from 0 to 4, and capped at 4.)
And once I feel more comfortable with coding, I have plans to make more corruption scenes such as blackmailing employees to fuck their relatives (with or without them knowing they may be fucking their son or friend) or have the husband watch you fuck her, or using (spoiler from a pretty endgame stuff)
but I cannot promise that I will be able to understand the code well enough for that, it's just what I want / hope to do. I've pitched lots of ideas, both here and in the Discord in the Game-Request channel, if not me, maybe someone else might get there eventually. Just know that you're not alone and people may be working on it.
Some people that have gone the AIO + Dec23 (or Dev) branch have had trouble and had to delete more than just the RPAs. For that reason I believe that it's better to just use the RenPy SDK, and as SwissCheese said it above, it must IMPERATIVELY BE 8.1.3, as 8.2.0 will result in crashing at start, not even allowing to play the game.
No, from what I remember, usually before if you had high flirt response it would (often) start a dialogue where the woman asks if you want to fuck her. So I believe it may be a bug or something like that.
I have to disagree with you on a lot of things. First, storylines are not that bad, some of them I do very much like. I get that they may not be for everyone's taste though, and it's okay, it can never please everyone. Some of them you can bypass already, like the Nora storyline for the serum tier increase, you can just pay instead of going through Nora's story. Or also not have Sarah in the game either for the HR position. And I know there's plans to make it so Ellie the IT girl isn't necessary either so that any randomized character can be able to fill her IT position. The idea of letting the player have the freedom to choose is one of the goals of the current "team". It's just that, when you write a story, you don't just first put a " Else then unlock this ", you first write your story, and then you put the outcomes and choices / alternate ways. So yeah, it may seem like the game is trying to trap you in the story, but it has stuff allowing you to bypass it. But some stories may have more bypass choices in the months to come.
For the rest of the content, there are people focusing on clothing, like I said above. It just takes time to render / test all that. People also are working on new features, new gameplay options, new scenes (that aren't storylines). And it gets added alright, if you follow the Dev branch you know there's almost daily updates in the code. In fact, there is way more updates to these types of content than to storylines. Also, you have to understand, the people working on storylines are not necessarily the same ones that do work on the gameplay features. Some of the storylines are Starbuck's,
" generally fat ". That's classy... Well, tell you what, if you hate it, there is an option to change the body types at the start of the game for randomized characters, there's the gym option for non randomized character when you get under 70kg they will be " Standard bodytype ", and also a Cheat option on the bottom you can click when you talk to someone if you want it to be instant without the gym stuff, that allows you to change their bodytype. So that way, you never have to witness in the game what an IRL real woman's body may look like.
I think I understand what he means. And I agree with the lack of options regarding corruption / " NTR " stuff. It's not " just him not playing the game as intended". Basically, yes, you can corrupt people. But you can almost never see the results that it has with men around. She cheats with you and you get caught by the husband ? No dialogues with him afterwards, at most you will get a notification that they divorced. And that's it. What about relatives ? Nothing. No scenes where the husband is furious that she cheated with you, or asking you why she changed that much, or that you tell him you can arrange his marriage / blackmailing him (maybe asking for money, or for other stuff, IDK). No scenes with any significant other male of a woman (like a son, a cousin, a friend, an uncle, IDK, you name it) that would be interested to change the stats of the aforementioned woman or to revert them, or ask you why she is changing so much. They may shit-talk their husband, but there is close to no option to have interactions that includes them, positively or negatively.
Freeuse is, afaik, only for you in the company. There may be some scene with other employees (I'm not sure if a freeuse woman can be used by other women, haven't tried it much) but you cannot tell a woman to be freeuse for men, to have gangbangs / bukkake, or to service the mailman that would brings the supplies ordered by employees, stuff like that. There's one scene where you can tell an employee to seduce an investor, but you don't see the scene, can't interact, you just tell her to seduce him, it fades and he comes back happy and that's it.
It's like if the MCU for Infinity War and Endgame said " Oh yeah we have that big villain " but then almost never shows him interacting and you learn by some other people that he decimated 50% of the population, but you never saw it happen, nor could interact with him. Yes, technically, " that " happened. But in a sandbox where interaction is king, if there is no option that it matters / is interactable / have a use, then it doesn't really matter much that it happened.
The most you can get is with the Jennifer's stuff. Both from the NTR event at night (needs to be activated in the bedroom MOD settings) that is very limited in what you can do or have, and her boss storyline, which is, being a storyline, not very repeatable (unless you use console commands). Maybe in the future there will be scenes about her being a slut for the boss / coworkers that will be repeatable, but so far there's not. The most repeatable scene from that is when she tells you she has a meeting with a client and ask advice about her clothing. Which once again, you still don't have a follow up, she doesn't tell you how it went, you never hear if she got fucked or not, and even less are able to witness it.
There is a lot that can be improved to feel as if indeed, your corruption does affect them with everyone and not just with you, and has lingering impacts on their relationships that calls for more interesting scenes, instead of just a few lines with no further scenes. Basically, lots of leeway in improvement to have the world feels as a world and not as other men almost don't exist.
