The link should be valid, it's set to never expire and shows up in the invites list on my server as active. In fact, if I generate a new link without expiration date or join limit, it just gives me that same link (

).

The server requires accounts to have verified their e-mail address though for them to join, and it's set to NSFW, which means you need to turn that on in your settings (and on apple, you can't,

).

Also, if your account's ever been hacked and turned into a spam bot, there's a chance it's been banned. DM me your discord handle if you think that might be it and I'll revoke the ban if there's one.

Sorry for the late reply; nope, nothing of that... I've joined other +18 groups from this very forum also. I'm not using apple (neither laptop, nor phone) The user is working on the other channels, so I don't really know/see what could be the problem... I use to log in via web, but I downloaded the app just in case, and still the same problem.

But it's not really important; my main concern was checking the update deadline and every week or so it's posted here so I just look through the post every now and then Thank you very much for your time in any case.

I know a lot of people play these games for the sex but I am really looking forward to the story in the next chapter as well.
especially after the ending to the last chapter.

Me to. It can have the most beautiful renders, but a bad story, That's enough for me to quit playing. If I see potential, I'll wait two-three updates. And if it's sandbox, that's not for me. I prefer good story and good characters AVN.

I Agree completely

For the art there is a middle point where I like to see these games exist. I don't want to get too close to the uncanny valley when it comes to the renders, but I also don't want to see messily drawn art that looks like two colorful blobs undergoing mitosis.

The story is what holds it all together because otherwise it is just porn. If I want to see a "wham, bam, thank you ma'am" scene there's a hub for that. I'm here for two things 1) a well told story and 2) being able to interact with that story by making decisions in the beginning of the game that eventually fuck up the life of the main character at the end of the game.

And I agree, the last time I enjoyed playing in a sandbox I was 5. Too many developers think that they should include sandbox elements to lengthen the game. They don't understand that if you write a great story people will stick around even when the update is small. I love this game because I feel naughtyroad is one of the few devs out there that figured this out. He makes a great game with a story that I want to read and art that I want to see. Not a lot of people do that.

Wise words, MrFriendly. I agree with everything... Where should I sign for that?

Unfortunately, it seems so few people do agree. At least going by the porn games that proliferate this site. Not going to knock someone for having whatever kink they have. I'd just rather see a lot more thoughtfully done games like LoML than cheap sex scenes between the same 2-3 daz models.

This week's update

 

[Kassan06969]

So not too much longer. A fucking year is too long. After a few months you forget a lot. More than 2 months is definitely too long if you're like me over 40 and play several AVNs.

Too bad I guess If it's that big of a problem, can just wait until the whole game is complete so you won't forget the characters during a playthrough. If you decide to play anyways, must not be that big of an issue

Maybe I should just wait until complete but I'm not in the best health (an extreme understatement) and might not live long enough. I remember the basic but goddamn! Why not just like 2 month updates but shorter. It takes this long but they are mega huge.

I agree one thing i would add is i hate when the mc in these games in an arsehole or creepy that has turned me off a lotta visual novels

You must not be handling the GTA VI delay well then....

 

[Menno_Coehoorn]

so, according to the roadmap, release should be somewhere between end of May and mid June?

 

[DorianD]

Good game! Thx Dev!

You need to get familiar with the ninety-ninety rule of software development.

(...) Why not just like 2 month updates but shorter. It takes this long but they are mega huge.

Well, that'd be the smart thing to do, financially more than anything. But story's more important to me. I want chapters to have an arch. A beginning, middle and end, that you can go through at your own pace without interruption. Doling chunks out piecemeal every x months undermines that, and it also takes away my ability to go back and tweak or completely revise something in the beginning of the chapter to support what happens in the middle or the end. So that's why it's happening this way, and that's why it'll never get released chunked out in bits and pieces.

To me, the end result is what matters, and if there's some horngy grumbling along the way, that's just too bad.

I'm over 60, and I can't tell you how many AVNs I have played or am playing. I love that naughtyroad doesn't dole it out in random-sized chunks, but in whole chapters that are narratively cohesive. Many of those on shorter update schedules I'll let 3 or 4 updates go by before resuming, just so there will actually be a reasonable amount of material added. I hate getting a new update and it only being an additional 12 minutes of gameplay. I'm sorry your health isn't the best — I'm not exactly A1 myself, but that's life — but the world (and its game updates) don't revolve around you. Sorry.

 

[robotreis]

I think the game will be released in 4 months. because he completes half a scene every week. I think he will lose his supporters if it takes that long. I hope I'm wrong.
