I know the feeling man!

Sometimes, my job is so.... hard! It's like they suck.... my soul out of me, you know.

On another note i realized i never commented my opinion of the game LOL oops,

Just wanna say i love the game, while its got a lot of LI and sex etc, it has a pretty good story (specially compared to games with the whole ton o LI move into a big house with the MC type trope).

I would love to see the actual story advance more, but i do realize why its slow progression on the main story (involving the acronym companies etc) due to the high volume of diversity in variables (like all the different LI's). I love how there are so many different options as well. Some Slow progression others fast. All in all id say its pretty good and i cant wait to see more of the progress through its development in terms of the story.

As for the different characters, i love how there are so many different characters with pretty decently unique personalities in the game. its not all cut and paste the same. Looks are different. Temperaments are different, and each seems like their own independent character. The only exception to that rule is the clones who have similar personalities, BUT that kind of makes sense. They only differentiate due to their life situations, which makes total sense. As for looks, i think you did an amazing job making a fair amount of them unique. Each has distinct physical characteristics which is quite nice (not all the same body type an frame) as well they all seem to have unique looking faces, and features (besides the obvious same as personality similarities due to the whole "clone" thing).

In terms of other games similar to this, example being grandmas house, i think i like this one by far better due the above. While some may not agree, for me personally i found that this was able to keep my attention even through 3 seasons so far, while the example grandmas house was not (never was able to finish that one tbh).

All in all just a giant post saying what i like about this game, as well as why i like those things. My only complaint again is that the story itself tends to progress pretty slow, but again thats not surprising because again 1. All the branches you need to write and code for, as well as do renders for, and top it off if i recall correctly this game is updated semi regularly, so i cant really fault the slow progression its more my curiosity making me go "I want to find out what happens!!!" so its not like its bad.

Anywho keep up the amazing work!!!

Wait until you get a little older, and the young 'uns start using words to mean new things even where you thought you knew the language and it 'felt natural' to you before. Nothing makes me feel more instantly old than having run to the urban dictionary online to look up a word I know suddenly being used in a completely new context.

I'm in my 40s, so i'm already there. Skibidi toilet or whatever the frack thats supposed to mean. I just ignore them, to be honest.

Thanks!
The game has an update every 42-53 days (47 on average, only one update took a bit longer) since Season 2 started. Before that, the average was exactly 30 days.
Variety was very important to me with a cast so big. If I couldn't get it in looks (Daphne/Eva/Erika and Emma/Amanda) I tried to do it in personality and background. It's the only way of making the girls memorable.

The main story is hard to define. For some players, it's about The Company, for others it's about the harem, and yet others think it's about the family. Everyone is right. And, maybe, everyone is wrong. I like to think the story is about a family that founded a company and, thanks to that company, the harem in its current state is possible.

I try to move forward, at least, two of those topics in each update, in some updates I manage to move all three, but The Company storyline is harder to move forward, since it depends on people outside the house.

I also like the girls moving at different speeds, it feels more realistic. Norah or Sam, experienced women who have been alone for a long time, wouldn't move at the same speed as Debbie or Daphne (both virgins). I'm enjoying a lot, for example, the "competition" between Eva and Amanda to be the first to do some things. Yes, I know, that competition only exists in Eva's mind, but it gives her (and Amanda for her reactions to it) a depth I didn't envision at first.

I'm glad you are enjoying the game.

100% i agree thats why i wanted to make sure in my post that i made it clear that its not a bad thing and that i understand why. I also agree i think the game is as enjoyable as it is because its not just the family, or the LI's or the harem, or even the company. Its everything. In fact id argue that the games story is just about each character rather than a set thing. Thats also why i wanted to mak sure you and everyone else was aware that me saying " i wish the company part would move forward" is in no way me saying that it needs to its just some thats piqued my interest is all.

Tho thats not the only thing, i forgot to mention in my earlier post but i also love the fact that you get the story of MANY different people. In fact thats the reason id argue that the main story is just you getting to know everyone because lets be honest, how many games out there will give you that much story for each charecter. It makes it A LOT more interesting. You get to know the charecters and how they tick, as well as everything else. Its almost like there are multiple stories within the one game due to the fact that you get so much to do with everyone. Example of that would be with your great aunt i think? (i cant remember if shes his great aunt or somthing idk) but the nun. You go to the city to take care of that and also help her out, that in itself is its only story chain, and its not just her tbh you get small to large story chains for most of the characters which some people would complain but i find it nice that even with a large harem (if you chose to go with all) that you end up giving everyone attention throughout the game.

Also sorry if i made any major spelling mistakes in either long post. Im using a pretty fucked up keyboard that several keys barely work so :3 makes it interesting to type sometimes LOL

I'm in my 50s and I stopped trying to understand slang or jargon.
In the last few years, the "bro" at the end of each sentence has become a fashion. They talk in Spanish and add a "bro" (in English) at the end. I'm not talking about "neighborhood or street guys" (those are still using the "brother" or "cousin", in Spanish, at the end of sentences). I'm talking about guys with 20-25 from middle-class families who feel cool talking like that. Every time I hear it, it sounds so weird...
Maybe I'm used to hearing it in English and it's the combination of Spanish and English that I find weird (it happens in other areas too). Or maybe I'm too old.

That's what I meant by "the family". The family is becoming a thing for everyone regardless of the MC being in a relationship with any of the girls. The MC and the girls help each other because they feel like a family. And what makes it touching is their individual stories. I can say I cried writing some scenes (a single tear or two ) because of their stories. Eva and Amanda's made me cry. Kim's made me cry. Martha, Sam, Betty, and Norah's made me sad. Kiara and Eileen's made me angry. And so on. I wanted to punch every antagonist (Jack (Erika's ex-boyfriend), Jonas (the Dean), Kevin (Scarlett's mother's boyfriend), Eric (the "bad" clone during the hostage situation), or Solomon (Kiara's husband)). I cheered for Betty and her rolling pin.
I think I'm too emotionally attached to the girls and the story

Remember guys, it's your duty as someone who is no longer "with it" to horrifyingly abuse every piece of youth slang you can.

Learn what it means, and how to use it, then use it wrong.

Like instead of saying "WAP" you say "She's Drippin'"? Yeah, their hands fly to their foreheads so fast that they leave a mark...

So has said every generation ever, though. That paragraph contains a whole lot of non-traditional word usage from the POV of my generation, but that doesn't make it "wrong" does it? The world changes, new things are discovered and created, and so language always has to add new words and/or new meanings for old words as time passes. I just think the so-called problem lies less with the words and more with the inflexibility of the more...mature minds when faced with the new. The irony is of course that kids today, who resent adults bashing their slang, will in just a few years be bashing the slang of the generation that follows them.

It's been a long time since I've had to do this, but ...

I lived all my life in Montréal (allo Trope!) and even if it's a huge multilingual city, I always thought it was funny to hear English speaking people saying "mon frère!" (brother, or more like my bro in this case) when French speaking people always said "bro!".

In high school it was the peak of mainstream hip-hop culture, with 50 Cent, Nelly, Eminem, Ludacris, Jermaine Dupri, etc playing in every radio station, both French & English one in all Québec. Then... EVERY! FUCKING! PERSON! was switching from bro/frère to "my dawg".

It was REALLY funny to see a skinny French ginger kid in high school refer to everyone as "my dawg!". Kid got ultra popular in like a week and every one I school was using "my dawg".

Me?

.....

I was the rocker kid with long hair, tattoos (yep, got my first one at 15), piercings and listening to Ozzy Osbourne, Metallica, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir. Matter of fact, I'm a really chill guy but my rest face makes me looks like a killer. My best friend was laughing every time I scared someone and she nicknamed me "Agent 47 with hair".

So, moral of the story?

Trope is doing a fucking good job with the story and the English is really good. And he don't using "my dawg" as greetings, so props to him!

Ah yes, good ol' British English where we add a "u" to words just to make them look pretty. Crow is going to have an aneurysm trying to correct the spelling "mistakes" only for them to be changed right back

You can't imagine the number of times I write "colour", "flavour", etc. Just for Word telling me it's incorrect when I do the spellchecking before sending the game to Crow

Well, other than getting it the wrong way round, with it being the Americans taking the "u" out of words because of whatever reason won't get me attacked for making fun of them!

An often overlooked clause in the Declaration of Independence (the one for the US - not all of the other ones sent to "The Crown" over the years ) stated "we just want to get rid of "u".

Although, the best explanation I saw was based on type-setting and printing: the letter didn't seem necessary, spellings of things were already all over the board, and dropping the "u" from most words ending with "our" would save space in newspapers, books, pamphlets, etc. Mind your "p"s and "q"s and get rid of extraneous "u"s!
