although it's wrong to say it for me these are games simply to pass the time they are not games that test my skills like VS strategy or when I play resident or SF , in most of the H games so if I need something I just edit values and get more money here or there xd
Agreed on this point, I'm not playing a porn game to play an actual game. I like the games that let me explore the town and find events of side characters or discover events with the main girl. But having a combat system or stuff that's just tedious to do that takes me out of the porn aspect too much is a negative to me.

I love both this game and Satisfy Him, but I can see the point he is trying to make. He thinks that you are insincere because you complained that this update took too long for too little new content. But you defend OnEdge for not having any content for over a year.

Personally, I think it's a bit weird he was so offended that he had to check your other posts to try and minimize your complaints. Both games have different timetables and separate methods.

OnEdge primarily uses discord to update on the progress and even though its marked abandoned here, he has still be working on it.

And GraveRobber has laid out what to expect in all her updates to the game.

BOTH games are definitely masters of giving people blueballs, lol.

I completely agree with some of the complaints with this one having tedious mechanics. The money system should not require me to waste a week, I think giving me the option to work every day would be far better. That way when I first learn that I need x amount of mental and physical strength to earn any money it's not a full week wasted, just a day.

The walk speed is ridiculous, I played the first update without mtool and that was a mistake, boosting the speed was definitely a must.

It took me forever to find all the chess masters, some hints at where to find them would have been nice. And the whole strength and mental building mechanic is tedious. Add in a lot of stuff that is just never explained, adds unneeded game time. And the reward for getting all 10 chess masters was pretty lame, that comic was hella dull.

But I lover her art, and the actual NTR stuff has been very good quality, which makes me tolerate the other stuff.
To be honest I didn't check his posts, it's easy to remember the guy that constantly defends a scammy dev and it sticks out when that same guy complains about the 2 months wait on an update for another game.

Are you reading what they say or just skipping the conversation? Everything you need to know to progress through the game is in the dialogue. And when you win the chess championship you get a free bus ticket forever.
Yes I read the dialogue. It's not as informative as you say it is.

It's cool there's a free bus pass and all. I got that too. That isn't relevant to anything in my comment though.

Yea, a lot of stuff is not really explained. And the move speed is straight-up malicious, lol. Definitely play with mtool or cheat program that lets you boost the speed.

The game is intuitive. I read everything and got all the information I needed to progress through the game. It's not just me who said that, more people also said that the game is intuitive.

ID say its intuitive if you have played a ton of rpgm games. BUt a lot of stuff just is not explained.

"Get a present for the GF". OK, How? Well, you need to go to the claw machine, but first you need to fix the claw machine, ok how? Well you need to pick up the trash outside to find the screw driver in the trash bag. But since you don't know which bag, you might have to spend several in game days picking up trash.

"Find comic book for Koata" OK, How? Well, you need to fight and win all 10 chess matches, but after the initial ones you will have to explore the town to find the other master to challenge. Oh, and some of them are in buildings, so good luck slow walking all over the town looking for these bastards.

A lot of stuff is just very very tedious. Walking, getting money because you need to wait a full week and you pretty much are guaranteed to waste a week when you find out you need a certain amount of stats or you get no money.

The game part of this game kinda sucks. But the NTR story is hella good, which is why I tolerate the rest.

I can somewhat agree with that. It's pretty intuitive, but there are things or instances where I had to come to the thread to look up about how to do a certain thing.... For example that thing about getting her a gift. If there's something I can't find an answer to, I just go around and talk to everyone (although... I think at the beginning of that quest, the MC tells you to go to Otaku kingdom, so there you have an incentive... Go there and interact with everything and see if anything happens). And then to find the screwdriver it's true that you have to come in on different days to collect all the garbage and see if you get lucky, and that feels like making the game artificially longer
Although the only reason I'm complaining about this is because it's mandatory to keep progressing in the story... Because, for example, I didn't go and get the comic books that Kouta wanted (I didn't fight the 10 chess masters either) since it's a side thing, and I guess there I forgive it because it's optional

I really liked his other game (except from the insanely slow movement).
And I also like this game and have high hopes for it, buuut...

I continued episode 2 from my old save, and damn some bad mechanics that was implemented here.
- Still completely insane slow movement speed anytime you are indoors. Very annoying mechanic.
- To obtain money you literally have to let a whole week pass if you already have done your work the current week.
- To continue the main story, quest says nothing about how to actually do it besides "Get GF a gift and go on a date".
Absolutely no hint of you have to fix the gift machine thing, and do the SIDE QUEST to complete it.
- A bit underwhelming amount of scenes, compared to time it have taken for this update.
- I felt a bit blue balled here I must admit...

That said, I do look forward for the next update, I just hope some of the above stuff would be improved.
FYI, the dev is a woman.

It was obvious that the prize of the championship would be the comic book. It was easy to deduce that.

There are things that are not necessary to explain like ''go to the man who works on the claw machine so you can play and win the gift''. I mean, when you play a game you don't expect the game to explain 100% of what you need to do, people just need use the brain. The game is intuitive and very short for now.

For me it was ''difficult'' about the reports because english is not my native language and it confused me, but then I paid attention and I got exactly what I should do :HideThePain:
