I'm also getting the soft lock from the Salesman's conversation. Let me know if you need any logs and I'll upload them.
Most useful thing would be a save before it, since I don't think there's anything that'll give me a hint in the log file. It seems like the kind of thing that's happening because of a specific set of previous conditions.

is it possible to avoid Emily (really her character is annoying as all hell) and just focus on Katie ( should have been the main love interest from the start) and the rest of the crew?
If the game wasn't already slated to end in the next act I think it would have been interesting to go to a world where this was a thing. Hopping universes can cater to so many tastes

Here are the save files I just created at the start of the conversation called "Salesman Bug Testing".

Thanks for this; helped me repro and fix the problem easily.

Basically, the Salesman event had gotten corrupted somehow; rolling it back from Git, and it now works fine. I'll be pushing a fix to steam shortly; doing a full set of mirrors... maybe. It's a whole lot like real work :)

There's a scene with one of the three foxes, but so far only glamor shots of the other two.
Really? Haven't played book 3 yet, but I've been waiting to get Hakone out of those jeans since I first saw her in book 1. Please tell me we can get more than a glamor shot before the end.

still no android ver of book 3?
Not speaking for Droid here, but as an android developer I can chime in with some of the problems. Simplified, there's a lot of technical bullshit involved that I'm glossing over.

To expand on what demoniac said, the problem with android is there's a 4 gigabyte installable app limit, and LoM is well over that. If Google would allow it on the play store: no problem, it would just download the extra data from them as you play. They'd handle the downloads as part of their 30% cut. That's how all the big commercial android games work, either letting google manage the extra data or using the profits from sales on the play store to fund their own servers for it.

But google are a bunch of !@#$ prudes and they won't allow NSFW games on the store, leaving adult devs having to pay to put the oversize data on their own servers. That's not just throwing a file on mega and letting people download it, since Unity needs a specially configured webserver to download from. It's a lot of effort and money to make something that nobody can buy even if they wanted to.

Last I checked it was 2GB (which is about a year ago), but yeah...everything else you said is true. LoM Book 2 is ~5.4GB, Book 3 is ~7.5GB. I can either host it myself (eek, bandwidth costs), or go for some kind of "install App1 (which copies all of its content to the device), then install App2 (which adds its content), then install App3 that actually contains the gameplay, and uses the data from App1/App2 because they all share the same AppID/keystore (which is a tech-support nightmare, not to mention a non-trivial engineering task for a living application).

It's playable on Android through Steam Link; I suspect that's the final way that'll work.

Similarly I don't think there'll ever be an Android version of Morningstar; Act 1 is now almost complete, and weighs in at 1.7GB; I could probably squeeze *that* into an android, but Act II would immediately be over the limit.

As they say, "Go big, or go home!" Maybe just me, but how much fun can anything really be on a cell phone?
Some people don't have a PC, or don't have a PC in a location where they feel comfy playing porn games on it (family living room, etc). Especially in Asia, smaller flats are a lot more common, and it's not rare that the PC occupies a part of the living room.
