I can confirm I have the same bug. However, it does only appear when you have played the intro. So skip that and this bug is gone (at least).
If you have the console enabled, you can also disable the tutorial (which appears to be what's causing the crash) by entering this in the console:

mc.business.event_triggers_dict[u'Tutorial_Section'] = False

I was already 52 days into the game when I tried to go to downtown and didn't want to start over... so this is a workaround for people who don't want to ditch their save to avoid this bug.

No... the better you get in sex its easier to please others... I meant that its harder to please the woman because you cum earlier (because she pleases YOU more)... and after one shot the scene if over... :p
Doesn't change what I said one bit. According to this game the better you get at sex the less you will enjoy it because you will ONLY be satisfied if you manage to find partners as skilled as you, which is a tiny percentage of available partners. In the real world highly skilled lovers know how to "get theirs" and can satisfy their needs even with less skilled lovers by being smart enough to back off the pressure and not just squeeze the nut out of that two minute brother they just hooked up with. lol

In the real world... your ability to please others is almost always separate from being able to get yourself off. Other than the correlation between stamina in men to give more orgasms to women before they blow their load and lose their erection, which is a negative correlation by the way (inability to get yourself off leads to more potential orgasms for your partner), the 2 skills are unrelated.

What would be better would be 2 separate stats for each person for each sex act... one for skill, and one for sensitivity. Because although it doesn't make sense for one's skill in pleasuring a partner to make them less likely to make it to orgasm, neither does it make sense for their skill in pleasuring a partner to make them more likely to orgasm.

There are two stats... your sex skill and the sex skill of the woman...
Snsitivity would be a third stat which would add more variaty.

As stated before, this guy should start optimizing the game. Loading a game takes too much time, not mentioning when you scroll the mouse wheel: reverting its a real torture.

ok, so I play the game up to day 21 and then it starts to lag hard and can't even save because of "not enough memory" error. Anyone know how to fix it?
I think this has been largely fixed with 21.1...

Another thing - I keep getting errors for the prostitute and the daughter work event. Anyone else experiencing exception errors here? Don't want to post walls of text here in case I'm the only one having those issues.

You *do* realize that a bug fixed version v0.21.1 is out meanwhile? Why are you still on v0.21.0?

I don't say v0.21.1 is fixing that bug though. But it might be worth trying the most current version first...

This is..... rather disappointing, really, compared to the previous game.
The first game remains in my top 5 all-time, which makes this mess really difficult to watch unfold. His strengths were his reasonably sexy models, his great dialogue/narrative, the richness of the interactions between his characters, and the tightness of the gameplay. It's incomprehensible that the sequel is a clunky business sim with profoundly ugly models, most of whom are randomly generated.

I'm not paying for any of this so it's tough to justify getting in his ear, but I'm baffled his patrons are (apparently) happy. I'd have been screaming at him to scrap and restart months ago.

It's what happens when you listen to a large group of peoples wants. Customisable characters have a high cost especially if you don't use a realtime engine. Moving away from Illusion models basically means DAZ or TK17.
He wanted to make a different style of game for the sequel, not just a straight VN type. A lot of the models were supposed to be placeholder art too, but as more stuff gets glued on they become more integral.
The story has been sort of left by the wayside as he builds systems and renders various components.

I think the really big deal is, as you mention, that the placeholders are becoming more "baked in" with every update. I'll be blunt, they're so damn ugly I can't play long enough to give most of the other stuff he's doing a chance.

WHAT???

The better YOU get at sex the more the WOMAN enjoys sex... the better the woman is at sex the more YOU enjoy sex... what you wrote is wrong... :rolleyes:
Ok I'm going to say this slowly so you can keep up. Let's say you have a woman rated 5/5 in sex. She hooks up with a dude rated 1/5. She's not gonna get off. She gets with a guy who is 2/5. Again... nope. 3/5? Nice try but no. 4/5? Maybe he'll get lucky but just as much chance he falls short of the mark. So she can ONLY get off if she finds a 5/5. The BETTER she is at sex the less she can get off. See now what I'm talking about? She's better off staying at 1/5 because any guy will be able to satisfy her.

it just means you look for something different in your games than other people do. I did like lab rats, but I only played through it two or 3 times. Once you've been through a few times there's not really anything new or interesting to do.

What I like about this game is it gives me a reason to play through again multiple times because the meat of the game is now a business sim. I understand that's not for everyone... probably the other side of the token to the fact that choiceless linear VNs -regardless of how good the models look and the writing is- aren't really for me.

I've probably played through this game from start through obscene financial wealth with all employees fully slutted out at least 15 times. The dynamics to the gameplay make it interesting for me to want to play through and while the models aren't the best... they are still better than much of what else you find on this site.

But what you are willfully ignoring is the point from your original post that he's countering... if you are a 5/5 at sex... it's not going to make a 1/5 able to get you off any easier than if you were also a 1/5 at sex. Being better at getting your partner off doesn't make you better at having lesser partners also get you off. That is what you suggested in your other post... that is what he was counter-arguing.

I'm talking about the game. The girl's sex stat seems to not only govern her affect on you but also how difficult she is to satisfy. As a starting character your low sex skill is NEVER going to be able to satisfy a more skilled lover. But you CAN satisfy another noob. In this game girls get harder to please the better they get. They make men cum long before the man can bring them to orgasm.
