It seems to me that people tend to forget (or not realize) that this game's developement is not done in a chapter-like fashion, so updates are not DLCs. 0.1 was not an update but a foundation and 0.2 started to build on that but its still the same game and you have watch it as a whole. My issue with such criticism is that, for me, it seems that you and those who do the same are reviewing it as a dlc exactly. Expect the update to have a nice start and end, a small but whole package.. but its actually not. Like a construction site. You can't move in expecting a livable second floor of a ten story building while its in the middle of its making. Its a construction site still. Updates are just finished floors. Judge the whole building when its done. What you are saying is like complaining about not having running water and furniture... in a building thats still under construction.
And i don't understand the issue with the progression gauge. All girls had a lot of stuff happening before we got that second heart, its just that this didn't mean the exact same things or curve. Celia had several blackmail scened while with Sarah its a romantic story that unfolds. But both had a lot going, just in a different way. If you think progression should mean what we see with Sarah, is like saying romance IS the way. But its not. Its just one way.
Yes, sometimes you have actually spend some time with a game. Its not a comic book. Even if its a porn game its still requires some minimal extra effort beside clicking the skip button :winkytongue:
Just want to clarify I guess. I wasn't mentioning that feedback because I "expected" finished content in those places. Finding out the content was missing did not change my opinion of the game at all, I knew going in it wasn't finished. The point is as I was playing, the game might tell me something is available or imply it but then I get lost trying to find it. That's all. I think you're overanalyzing me or just overreacting. Yes, I actually spent time with the game. I wasn't in any rush to click quit or hit skip or anything like that. Never gave any indication I meant that.
I understood the game wasn't going to have a clean path beginning to end, I did the research, but that doesn't change the fact that there was a moment where I got lost and confused of whether I
could go to the clothes shop or Linda's work or not. And I DID continue playing to find out what I could do. Even if I couldn't find those places, there wouldn't be an issue in the content not being there, the issue would be that it wasn't clear enough whether it was or not. Doesn't that make sense? If it doesn't, well then we can move on. I won't be stubborn about, just thought I was clear.
Lastly I just meant that that 2/5 marker didn't mean much to me, it's hard to say what "changes" at that marker or what it means. Usually relationship milestones in a game mean something, like allowing certain content to be available at level 2 or something. It's one of those things that doesn't hurt the game at all though, just mentioning it for the future?
Anyway! Great game
So Far , I'll keep watch for updates like I said before. Just clarifying what I meant in my last post.
