My first impressions of this game are not good. The scene in the bathroom where niece thinks you are hallucination wasn't funny but cringy. i hope it gets better.
The first little bit of the game is kinda cringey, but then the fucked up shit starts happening and it gets really good.

Yeah, that and a lot of the other early game stuff is going to be completely removed and brought up to speed with the rest of the game hopefully some time before 2021. My vision for this was all sorts of messed up in the beginning and I felt the need to just shove a bunch of nudity in because I didn't think people would play if it wasn't there. The first several hours are pretty bad in my opinion.

So, I've been doing some thinking lately.

And it wasn't until watching Bo Burnham's new Netflix special just now that I realized what I need to do going forward- and that's to slowly distance myself from F95. I won't be gone completely as I do like talking with a lot of you on here and truly appreciate all of the love this game gets over one year and six billion updates later.

I have a problem. I am helplessly addicted to working, to the point where any time I do give myself a day off, I am completely miserable and unable to think for myself. I didn't work at all yesterday and it was one of the most miserable days in a very long time. It's unhealthy and it's been a problem for 14 years now, but it's gotten a lot worse over the last year. And that's not to say I'm going to slow down progress or anything, I literally can't. If I stop working, I will actually die. You will still be getting updates every two weeks (Or one month for larger ones, like I'm currently working on).

But I can't be letting some of the things people say here get to me as much as I have been. Hell, I haven't even read any of the reviews in the last three to four months.

So for the sake of my own mental health and the quality of the game, I'm going to be less active on this site. It's just not an environment I can happily participate in anymore. But I thank all of you who are following/have followed/will continue to follow this project, as it has many, many years to go. It's truly remarkable being able to do what I love for a living, and it's truly remarkable being able to fill the holes inside of myself with all of the things I have made you feel and think.

William Blake once said that the most sublime act of all is to set another before you. So I come to you now in an act of what I hope resembles sublimity, and ask for your understanding in this matter.

0.17.0 Launches on 7/1/21.
Go watch Bo Burnham's "Inside" on Netflix.

Good on you.

Also I tried to leave a review and don't seem able to, am I missing something or does it require a certain number of posts or something?

In my humble opinion, could I say that the intro to LiL was kinda charming? So if you are going to delete the intro and revamp it, maybe you could add a "deleted contents" section or something...

And on that note, although I fully admit I am not a patreon [yet], would it be possible for you to add an "album" feature where you share the gravure photos with non-patreons (after a delay, of course).

Just some feedback, please take with a grain of salt :)

Understood, I'll try to focus any direct contact on the Subscribestar or Discord so I don't end up unintentionally dragging you back when you don't want to be or completely missing out on a response because of that desire to distance yourself. It will take some getting used to, though, so I might slip up for a while at first.

Indeed, he could even only add to the album when the version releases to the public. Kind of like a reverse of the practice of including exclusive content in patron builds. Instead of the content only being in patron builds, it would only be updated in public builds. This further incentivizes waiting out the 2 week delay.

Good decision. I don't know if you remember, but I told you once that you're getting too heated up and defensive over what people in this thread say and do. Good to see that you haven't completely given up on your mental health, despite what you (perhaps jokingly) claim sometimes. See you sometime. (Just as hit the last button, a "dot", my fucking keyboard broke and stuck making infinite ellipses. Dramatic stuff, how very fitting.)

Smogark was quite uninterested for awhile since the story seemed slow, then Smogark started talking with Maya, and the other characters progressed more.


Smogark attention has been acquired. Can't wait to see more.
Those are some nice fangs. Pearly white too, shows not all orcs are brutish unkempt beasts.

I also agree with your assessment about Maya, she's my favorite so far.

Good day to you sunny.

Agree. My thoughts exactly. :)

I don't really know what White Castle is, or why it arouses such feelings.

I may not understand the world as well as I thought I did.

Isn't Texas just BBQ, steaks and burnt ends? Oh and queso;I understand Texans get very worked up about queso. Are you allowed to eat other foods there?
Queso, Tex-Mex, and MEAT. Doesn't matter the animal, doesn't matter how it's prepared. Just...all the meat.

Whataburger is our regional fast food chain, and they're nasty-ass greaseburgers, but they are GLORIOUS, especially when you're drunk. Every bar district has one nearby, and they're all open 24 hours for that very reason. They do their best business after last call.

Edit: And Texans and Californians CONSTANTLY try to compare Whataburger to In n Out and put them in competition with one another, even though one's a greaseburger and the other's a more traditional hamburger, and really, they're both highly overrated, so most of this is just the Texas/CA rivalry playiing out via proxy.
You both forgot chili... How could you forget chili? It's called Texas chili everywhere but in Texas where it's just chili... chili. That said, as a proud Dallas born and raised Texan, the Whataburger vs In-n-Out is dumb, they're completely different, especially in the last like 5ish years, where Whataburger has started to really expand their menu. I agree with Barglenarglezous, it's just TX vs CA playing out in fast food places, but it is also the best, and usually one of the only, places to get food at 2am. There might be an argument between the two if In-n-out was 24 hours, but it isn't, and Whataburger vs McDonalds is an easy Whataburger win, especially since all Whataburgers are 24 hours, but not all McDonalds are now.

In England chili is just chili. Unless you're being a posho, then it's chili con carne. But chili sans carne would be an abomination so it's somewhat redundant.

I'll give you chili though. The real question is, do they let you eat vegetables that haven't been fried in Texas?

Selebus, if you're reading, I would advocate staying away from the patreon stats too. There's nothing worse than torturing yourself with numbers which you have little real control over. I'm hopelessly addicted to watching the stock markets, it's not good for you.

This is sad true. I am in minority which prefer slow build up - simply because it is often more believable. IMO relationships with some girls progress too fast. Ayane is a only girl who has justified very quick sex scenes.

Does anyone have any theories as too why you don't see any males around?

(We know they're still around, like Geoffrey, but we never see them)

Well, the whole thing about most men were drafted for the space war thing.
But we do know there are some old men taking care of some shops.
But we havent seen or heard about any male kids.

And Kirin, in fact, the only one I can see going too fast right now is Miku and that is intentional as part of the story.

We already know the reason for that, very few are left out of the war and those that are are either too old to fight, as in the military wouldn't even accept them if they volunteered, they are physically unable even with no age factor, or they weaseled their way out through a loophole. Those with a physical ineligibility would be too immobile to be seen very much, example, I rarely ever leave the house even outside of restrictions from the current situation because of how my house is, steep driveways are a nightmare, I'll put it that way. Those with an age ineligibility have likely grown less mobile over time, resulting in less frequent public appearances. Those who weaseled their way through a loophole basically amount to people who run some form of large company, such as Ayane's dad, who is too busy to see his own daughter let alone go out.

Well, the whole thing about most men were drafted for the space war thing.

Male kids would be among the drafted, this is why the school the girls go to has no male students.

What Sel wrote, I understand it
It's important to understand your mental health, and anything that makes it worse, to not have that effect you so much anymore. I'm glad we have such as good community here though for this game. I'm not the most active, but the discord especially is a good environment to be in
Edit: I really can't wait for the next update. It promises to be so much fun
