Just so wrong, it does a world of difference and being purposeful ignorant of what I'm referring to ain't an argument. It's marketing 101 ‍♂ Bad angles and objectively bad images will always be apart of porn games, and people likely get over them if they play the game.
Nothing willfully ignorant about it. Especially when you are looking at a mere fraction of the situation and ignoring everything else such as people looking at the tags, the other images, the overview, maybe were fans of the previous game, maybe they don't pay much attention to preview images, maybe they found the game on other sites, etc. I more often than not see people, especially when it comes to porn games, pissed when something isn't properly tagged or certain warnings are not provided after they tried to play the game and thought they would enjoy it. Why not present the game as it is and make that kind of thing clearly apparent? Even if that is "marketing 101" there is a much different nature when it comes to indie devs especially ones who develop adult games and get support from fans for development costs. Besides that, I'm pretty sure the dev didn't claim ownership for the OP so it is not like they personally chose to advertise their game in this way and as I previously stated, have not seen anyone else complain about that first image.

Whatever bro, agree to disagree you come up with anything no matter how farfetched it is and underplay anything I say for your own benefit Lmao

Nothing far-fetched about stating there is more to people deciding on checking out a game than just one image, the dev didn't even make the OP, and I have not seen anyone else complain about it.

Already stated the reasons as to why that is, but whatever bro, and of course there's not, but undermining an important factor as to previews is dishonest

And your logic is flawed in that it hinges on the idea that a single image will make many people not want play a game while ignoring multiple variables such as other information present, previous knowledge, and the page layout.

Nah, one of the most important variables is the preview images. Therefore nothing is flawed about what I said. Purposeful ignorance is the worst culprit which cake out of you.

The preview images are organized in a center-aligned layout. Nothing about that design focuses the user's attention to the first image all the way to the left. The images in the middle get the most attention. Plus, clicking on any image opens up a fullscreen gallery view which makes looking at all the images encouraged. You say the preview images are an important variable, but only focus on a single image, that is why it's flawed. There are 12 other images which have a chance to grab the user's attention.

All images are centered in your vision from afar, people will definitely see the first image even without clicking on an image, so no.

They will see it, but the layout is not putting emphasis or drawing the user's attention to it as the first thing they look at. That is the purpose of something being center-aligned unless it is text. If I was willfully ignorant, I would ignore the purpose of the preview images, when that's not the case as an earlier point I even address that the other 12 images should not be ignored while you continue to ignore their purpose and focus on a single image. If this was like Steam's layout where it encourages users to start at the first preview images since you have to scroll to see the rest, I would at least somewhat agree at least in the point it shouldn't be the first image, but that is not the case as this is a different layout and I don't agree that the image shouldn't be present altogether as it is an important scene early into the game and showcases multiple things about the game in a single image.

I give that to you, but still gonna turn people off regardless which was my main point that I want to stick.

Does anyone else feel like Amy is fading into the bg a bit over the past few updates? I don't expect her to have as much content devoted to her as Clara, but early on I felt like I could juggle both girls and now it's all Clara with a couple of deviations here and there. Or maybe I'm making the wrong in-game choices. haha

Also, I think the dev is doing an overall really good job so I subbed to his Patreon to show a little support. I also enjoyed 12 Days and would hate to see him quite making content.

100%. When I first started game, I thought of them as two equally viable paths. Now, it feels much more like Clara is the main LI (who's my first choice anyway but more choices = good), and regardless of what choices you make, Amy is exactly the same: she gets worked out like a 2 dollar hooker at every chance.

"Super popular" is a stretch. She came in 4th place, BARELY over Bean in 5th by 3 votes.

lol@4th place in a game with 2-3 main LIs.

I think Betsy is hideous. She's not even THAT fat in most of the scenes, that I can get over, the face I can't. Having said that, I'm definitely glad she's in the game, helps it avoid "WVM SYNDROME" where there's 200 girl characters who all look the same and are utterly forgettable. She's unique.

Joy getting robbed, wow, as far as conventionally attractive goes, she's parity with Amy and Clara.
