So I just read in the Lust Bound thread that apparently Inceton has not been adding any bonus content (as in nude mode or slut angles) to the latest updates of pretty much all their games, does anybody know if that's true? Honestly that'd be a huge bummer as that's like half of the fun...without it, they're like pretty much any other game.

IMO, bonus content is quite distracting from the story flow.

I mean... If the icon pops up I can't resist clicking it out of curiosity and willing to see all content, but... It kinda breaks immersion in the story.

Instead of 100 renders about the story and 20 slut angle renders, I prefer 120 renders all about the story.

Just ONE scene of type "XYZ" causes the tag to be added.

It would be necessary (especially for "divisive" tags like NTR) a finer classification like "non canon" and "avoidable".
That's always one of the weak points of almost every tagging system when things are divisive or something people are specifically seeking out. It almost always becomes necessary to be able to have subtags and an indicator of their relative quantity. The quantity because the person may want that tag to appear many times or because they can tolerate a few instances of it but not a bunch.

But such a system is both a pain to implement technically and to maintain. Especially with something like games where the subtag or quantity might change between updates. I had to build one once for my day job a few years back. The technical challenge is mostly around how it interacts with adding, searching, and filtering and making that accessible in the UI effectively. Actually storing the data is dead simple.

Well a quick and dirty approach (which is better than nothing) would be adding a flag avoidable/unavoidable and another one rarely/common/frequent to each tag.

In this particular case NTR would be classified as rare and avoidable since season 1 and never updated since.

Or at least adding to the OP tags section an extra line stating explicitly "NTR is limited to two hidden scenes which are not canon - if you don't want NTR just don't click on random objects and you will be fine".
This would be useful to avoid the same question repeated over and over.

Meh, everybody is entitled to their preference of course, but you'll agree that a dev doing 2.5 seasons of a game with that style and suddenly abandoning it is just weird, right?

TBH my best guess is that - assuming that the bonus content is indeed not included in the latest updates - is that they are focusing on the story alone in the update, and will add the bonus content once the game is finished, with less time pressure.

Yeah, especially weird for Patreon subscribers who pledged the relevant amount to enable bonus content and they haven't got it in latest update.

I don't think it's correct.

Just as I don't think it is correct to develop so many games together so updates are short and one single season takes years to be completed...
...but they do because the longer it takes the more pledges they get.

That could be.
Even more annoying for someone who pledged for months to have bonus content and instead only get them when the game is completed and sold at a price equivalent to what he has been pledging once per month for years...

... but hey... "Patreon is not about buying the game, it's about supporting the Devs"

... yeah, of course, but if the Devs promise that among the benefits of a given tear there is access to bonus content... Well... Subscribing that tear is precisely about buying access to bonus content. So if bonus content is not there in every update... Meh...

I'm going to share my opinion about the female characters in the game.

Megan: Never liked her. Don't find her attractive, and she's only somewhat hot.

Jessica: At first, I liked her complexity, but after learning about her sexual history and bisexuality, I lost interest.

Mom/Elizabeth: I like her—still do. Unless they reveal some promiscuous past, I'll keep liking her.

Zoe: Never liked her, similar to Megan.

Ellie: Didn’t like how fast she was, and the attempt to make her romantic made it worse. If you're going for romance, do it right—not this half-hearted pseudo-romantic stuff.

Nicole: Used to like her, though I ignored the part about her past with a student. But after a list of things I didn’t like, she’s more neutral now.

Sophie: She’s a slut—no way around it. Being nice doesn’t make up for it.

Amy: Initially felt indifferent, but after finding out she used Tom despite his situation, I can’t sympathize with a girl who toys with a guy and discards him on a whim.

Alice: The only one who seems pure, the question is—what happens after she gets laid? It’s worthless if she’s a virgin at first but turns into a nympho later.

As you can tell, I’m a bit conservative.

Guess I'll do mine.

Elizabeth Pretty hot but she kinda irrelevant

Amy hot but don't care.

Sophie Don't Care.

Ellie enjoy her a lot.

Zoe I somewhat appreciate her and will thank her for giving season 1 content. Because without her sex scenes season 1 is trash.

Nicole. Love her sexy hot teacher. Kinda on the fence on her having a past with another teacher.

Alice is someone I should not cate about since he came in late and doesn't tick any fetish of mine but I love despite it.

Megan. Super hot. Really ticks my sister fetish snd love her scenes.

Jessica. Hands down my favourite since I have a hot older sister fetish. Want way more solo scenes of her and to have love making
