If leaks didn't exist, then yeah, public release would be the 30th. But leaks have usually come out around the Benchwarmer tier anyways.

Question; does the game make sense without the incest patch? I mean does it have that awkward landlady/roommate dialogue? or is it better to just use the incest patch?
I prefer not going with incest if possible, however, I also dislike reading that getting with your roommate is taboo lol

I personaly don't think you need the patch. It does make sense without it.

As far as I understand this VN doesn't emphasize family at all, especially since there's only one member of the potential family here, so you can read it without a patch. The patch is more for users like me

Thanks for the response, I will go without it.
Can always try later on if I find I need to but thought I would ask before starting it up

i think you would be better of using it. i think diana is a love interest and later down the line some things might be a little strange if she is just your "roommate".
The background story of the non-incest version makes perfect sense, this isn't one of those incest focused storylines with the MC waffling about his feelings about it every two minutes. So far Diana is still stuck in tsundere mode anyway so who knows how it is gonna go. If its not your kink don't bother with it, it seems to be added to the story as an afterthought anyway.

The story makes sense without the patch, but I feel like the canon story is with half a patch applied .
I mean, the mother seems to have adopted them both and would be like a mother of the heart to them (and not the landlady nonsense, how I hate that word). Diana, on the other hand, seems to me to be the real older sister, and they grew up together as children, saved from the disaster of the real parents they had.

You aren't losing anything by playing with either. It's just whatever your flavor is.

I am currently playing the Steam version without the patch and honestly the story and relationships so far makes sense and kinda explains why MC is like he is, so I don't think the patch is necessary unless you really want to play a story with incest.
Can you elaborate at all by chance? I haven't played the game yet but will eventually - don't mind minor spoilers if needed; I do like the bro / sis dynamics a lot, so always enjoy when those are part of it. Thank you.

the nature of their relationship is taboo due to who she is to him. there is nothing taboo about dating your roommate/childhood friend.
Thx - didn't know if there was already some things in the story that ramp up the "awkwardness" if you run the patch or not - I know it's only on Ch3 so probably not a ton of stuff happening yet. I appreciate your response.
Looked at the pricing at patreon and i have to say its really bad and discouraging to sub.
The only tier i would ever consider to sub on would be the superfan 3€ tier which gives access a week sooner than public with the current shedule.
Btw are public releases even allowed when being on steam?
The 50€ tier is kinda questionable imo (having to wait a week with a sub like that)
The 25€ tier entirely sucks ass (2 weeks waiting at 25€ support is way too long)
Depending on the pricing/release structure i sub at the 15-25€ tier for avns i really like but i would never do it here despite me liking the avn and i could imagine the dev losing quite some income from this bracket due to the structure
The time overall is fine (1 month) but imo there should only be 2-3 days between the high(er) tiers and longer times towards the cheap tiers but thats just my two cents.

I agree that they probably aren't the best. But eh. I haven't had any complaints. Until now, at least. That said, Patreon isn't (and shouldn't be) an option to outright buy the game. You're supporting the artist(s)/teams/etc. and getting bonuses from that support. If you're just looking to buy the game, Steam or Itch are going to be better options. It's far cheaper at the end of the day.
Why wouldn't they be? All Steam cares about is that you aren't selling their keys cheaper somewhere else.
You do you, it was just my 2 cents that its discouraging from my perspective and i think youre missing money out due to it.
There are a lot of people (like me) who dont support for nothing but indeed enjoy to support/buy if there is a fair incentive (im not really into giving money to unknown people for nothing even when i like the devs ...).
Im not on Itch and wouldnt ever buy a avn on steam even if i wouldnt be from germany lol. And im talking from your pov too, people who may sub for 20 are may staying.
But whatever, feel free to ignore everything i wrote and take my 3$ when the time comes lol, i feel like i brought my point across.
It wasnt really meant as a complaint anyway, more (intended) to be constructive critism and what i see whats working for other devs
Oh and i thought a public release is like giving keys away for free

Most developers do not do public releases once it hits Steam due to the fact that Steam wants the price to be the same on all store fronts. I think there is even some confusion whether a public release is actually allowed once it hits Steam. Most developers with games on Steam will do a public but it's sometimes a few updates behind the Steam version.

No meu país, a gente chama de mão de vaca, pirangueiro, liso ou duro uma pessoa que tem medo de usar o dinheiro, no seu caso pelo que eu notei tu é muito de um liso boy.
In my country, we call a person who is afraid of using money a tightwad, a scrooge, a smooth or a hard man. In your case, from what I've noticed, you are a very smooth boy.
I'm curious, why wouldn't you buy a stroke on Steam? Are you afraid that your friends will find out that you jerk off to a 3D character?
lol no i dont give a fuck and you can deactive it in privacy settings anyway
its just dumb to buy games on steam when you can buy them otherwise and own them for real yourself. And steam versions of avns always lag behind anyway (not in this case apparently).
But avns arent on steam where im from anyway
