it's not necessarily about being a pussy. i really like this game however including such scene is just not a good look from a outsiders perspective. think of it like this, if it took only 3 comments from a random guy on f95 out of all places (99% of players will never understand that reference) to set him off, you can probably imagine what a more elaborate troll would do. as the games audience keeps getting bigger there will be only more people like that (unfortunately) so them seeing that can encourage them to do the same in some twisted strange way. i personally don't mind it but you never know how the "wider" audience (steam players) would receive it.

tbh i didnt get that scene up untill now (didnt know the guy or the context) but nevertheless i tought it was pretty funny and i think that anyone else with a lil bit of distance will also take it this way

So overall i really like this avn, the visuals are awesome and i like the MC.

And i dont have any problems with "offensive" language either, stop being so butthurt or sensitive, reading opinions on reddit about this makes me puke considering how they all try to one-up each other about being a better human being while at the same time carrying their subconscious rasiscm around but certain catchwords are the pure evil, sure sure.


But sadly episode 3 was the weakest by far for me

Im not into football (there is only one kind of football for me) but it didnt mattered in the first two chapters, even the football parts were interesting enough (all around it is the same to other sports anyway) but in this chapter it was very specific about football, football players or all around american sports stars.

Of course i know people like kobe or lebron but there are SOOOOOOOOOOO many names thrown around i never heard at any point in my life that it becomes rather dull and less and less interesting. (im european, so its maybe just too us-ish for me but i guess im not the only one).

Imo its becoming too specific if the dev intends to have players who not particulary are into football or american sports which would restrict the possible playerbase very much (and unnecessary)

And i dont want to get thrown into the transphobe drawer but im REALLY not into transgirls at all and therefore consider it a somewhat unfortunate decision to give Ivy kinda the most screentime/relationship development in this chapter and thats considering i already skipped the second time meeting with her.

Imo the "faxe" joke was a bit heavy handed, i saw making fun of the harem/anti-ntr losers in more fun ways in other avns already, this just kinda took me out of the AVN as it was so artificial and unfitting for the vibe of the avn.

The hanging out with the teammates and the relationship with the teammates (esp blaine) is good imo but all other relationship developments felt lacking in this update (not counting ivy).

These are just my thoughts about this update, not saying it was bad but it didnt really hit the nail for me like the former two

Still a good avn tho and im looking forward for more

im also not really into football (im also european), and didnt got none of those names but for me it didnt really made the scenes less intresting, sure it will throw a lot of ppl of but it also shows how deep our character is into that shit, it shows that he knows what hes talking about and adds depth to the story

for me it would a lil unnatural to see the everyday life of a football star without getting a little technical and having a little of that insider terminology


as for the Ivy i already rejected her like twice and still got a chance to kiss her, idk if i did something wrong but i feel like if i reject her twice then it should lock me in like a friendship path or something, i aint gonna change my mind about hitting that


imo still one of THE BEST GAMES

Relationship-wise, yes. Sexually, it's optional.

I really gotta learn to phrase things better. I asked two questions in an opposite manner, so "yes" to one means no to the other, so now I don't know what your answer means. :LOL:
I think you're saying they ARE a package deal as a relationship, but we might be able to lewd them individually?

Exactly. If it were a solo path, you'd get both as something of a 'throuple'. But you can have sex with them either together or individually. Same goes for the harem. They both would join, but they'd have sex with MC separately unless chosen otherwise.

Yeah i dont mind the terminology being used and the dev actually did a great job with the feature which explains most stuff. And stuff like this got used in chapter 1 and 2 too, its just that this chapter kinda went overboard with naming loads of american sports stars and stuff which feel shallow if you dont have any connection to it imo

But maybe thats just me

In re: the amount of American football content, it seems that mostly sports fans (of different sports) are the only ones complaining. As a sports not-fan, it doesn't bother me one way or the other. It is the backdrop of this story so I'm not sure what people are expecting. I know and understand the game so I mostly get the gist of what is being talked about, but only recognize the player names if they made it into mainstream news in some way (usually for a bad reason but not always.) And yeah the Glossary is awesome, very helpful for slang terms. But in general during sportsy dialogue I just skim like most people would reading treknobabble explanations in sci-fi stories. :)

Regarding the whole harem club scene:

Right now, I'm trying to get a pulse on where the general sentiment is on it, which just isn't something I can get on my own. It seems like many are fine with it or really like, and some just don't care enough to comment on it. Aside from the table pounding by a few vocal posters here, it's hard to get an objective gauge on where players stand with it.

I'll either be keeping it in the main game or moving it to the politically incorrect patch. Public

Honestly, I loved the update. Always like your characters, writing, even the music is on point. The game feels more down to earth than most of these typical teenage wet dream games. So, yeah. Awesome job as always.

Fame, great as always. Loved all the screentime she got in this update. Overall, all the girls had some good time this update with just some time spending instead of always sex. Was nice for a change. Though there was a severe lack of Yuna in this update lol. Hopefully she gets more screentime in the next update.

As for the whole cameo of a certain person here, meh, I thought it was funny. Those types always grind my gears, so it was pretty on point and got a chuckle out of me at least. I'd say keep it as it was a nice humorous moment to break up the seriousness of things. Plus, it's a nice inside joke for those of us here.

Either way, great update as always. Thanks, and looking forward to what comes next. ;)

Im interested in the hability development during game part.
I choose the brain, which was smart and vision if i recall but since i don't know much about NFL, the MC is someone who plays near line and brain is more associated with quarterback, the "brain" of the team. Does the MC will have a chance at QB in future or i just fkd the game with my decision? Should i have gone with strength build?
On another side, will we have a chance with our "mom"? And that milf, the tattoo girl mom?
Anyway, nice update btw, the fatsos of harem club was nice touch and the rules sounded like Fight Club.
