They didn't do much besides kissing, Anna is the one who inspired them to do more.
Fair enough, still already done and we've missed it though. I'm not ragging it's a really good game, I'm very much enjoying it, just skipped over what I consider to be the best part, apologies if I sounded salty or anything it wasn't the intention. That said I don't actually know what they've done I'm assuming they've long since crossed that line but I might still get what I want yet. A guy can hope.

The thing with MCs forgetting things is, they get to remember them, or redo those things. As the player, we get to experience them "for the first time" along with the MC. So, really, we haven't missed those parts. We'll experience them with the MC as he is shown memories, or has the moments again.

It's not my place to argue with you, it's your story after all. It just doesn't 'hit the spot', it's already done, taboo already broken, relationship already established even if not for the MC it IS still established, and with the taboo already broken the emotion isn't there, the battle between shame inflicted by society vs. the wants of the individuals, already done. The 'supposed to be wrong but doesn't feel wrong', already done. It's the breaking of the taboo and the subsequent alterations in the sibling relationship and the emotions and conflicts naturally arising from said alteration that is the meat of the genre in my opinion.

The build up to going all the way is just absent, the slowly getting closer, doing more, not wanting to go too far while simultaneously really wanting to go to far. All gone. Just the re-establishment of what is already present. All the shame and conflicted emotions are lacking because it's already happened.

This isn't a hit piece, I want that to be perfectly clear, I'll say it again just to clarify that I AM very much enjoying the game, it's exceptional and I won't be putting it down, more debating the ins-and-out of the genre. I haven't finished it though and still don't know the extent of what they've done, all of what I said could easily still happen dependent on exactly how far they've already gone. Nothing has outright stated (yet) that they've done everything and what I wrote only really becomes relevant if that's the case. If not then there are still lines to be crossed, and crossing them is what I take most pleasure in. If there are no lines left I've, in my mind, missed that best part.

Please don't think I'm ragging on your game though I'm not. As I've repeatedly said i'm very much enjoying it and I think your works brilliant. The art style to My new family put me off but after playing this I'll be playing that too, seriously your woks amazing and I really hope this doesn't come off as an attack.

Not a fan of the different style compared to MNF, feels extremely generic, almost every 3dcg game looks just like this. Still, the writing should hopefully make up for it. Hopefully it has a decent amount of lewds despite the heavy story warnings.
MNF is also 3dcg...

K7 has walked back on the "no lewd Olivia" thing somewhat. Mostly to "no plans to lewd Olivia yet" admittedly, but still. Otherwise, yes.
I think some people in the discord are upset by the idea for some reason, even though Alice and Lucy aren't that different from Olivia...

I thought it would be a little bit weird to have all the other girls in a relationship with the mc and Olivia being the only left out. But if that is the direction that K7 wants to go I will not complain about it. Would I like Olivia to be a love interest? Yes, but the game is still awesome even if she doesn't become one.

Its fine K7 can do whatever he wants, I just find the whole Olivia drama a little arbitrary considering his last game, that's all.

It's really disappointing that

, that initial line-crossing was always my favorite part. Skipped the best bit in my opinion.
It's a good game though so i'm sure I'll get over it. I prefer the art style over MNF, Illusion style art never did anything for me but I'm to understand i'm in the minority there?.

Game's great, arts great and I'm liking the story. I just really hoped

The 'in the past' scenes don't do anything for me either, not much in this game for me since my favorite bit already happened and the 'in the past' sex scenes I just skip over but the story has me hooked. Not easy to have someone playing a game like this for story alone so mad props to your writing, i actually want to know what happens and let face it, barring the odd gem, the writing in these games is passable at best.

If people want to see how the relationship with MC and Sabrina progressed before Anna's help, I can think of one way. Anna may be visiting other members of the family, and with their connection, perhaps she can bring the three of them together in real time. If so, then Sabrina and Anna together can help awaken his memories with his sister.

In my perception, we are getting a bit of that with the way MC has had to suddenly come to grips with what his former self been doing with his family all these years. His initial post-concussion state retains all the cultural taboos intact. He's still struggling with it.

The difference with Killer7's "family friendly" stories is that it is usually the MC who is struggling with it, not the usual where the MC is pushing family members to accept his taboo desires. It makes it a lot more wholesome and a lot less creepy.

One of the weak points of many of these stories is how quickly the change has to occur for the story. Even in MMF, it didn't take very long for MC and Sandy to go "from zero to sixty." With MNM, we get both approaches. The relationships developed over a believable time in the past, but in the present perspective, it's being revealed to the MC as new experiences, new memories, at a much faster pace. I think that is one reason it will take some time before the daughters are involved--they haven't had that previous history with him like the elders, so it will take time to develop those new connections.

I'm a weird dude when it comes to certian things in games, clothes are a good example, I try to give each girl a set of clothes that they can wear on different days. I know that is not something people usually care about but I did the same in MNF so I want to do it in MNM as well. Just a thing for myself, I guess :D.
Well I certainly appreciate it. It's better than seeing the girl with one static look through the entire game.

I'd also like to see devs do small changes with girls' hair. Have it tied up in some scenes, have it down in others. Dunno how much work that'd be, though.

I'm looking into that right now. It's a little bit more difficult in daz3d than it is in honey select sadly :D.

MNF is also 3dcg...
Think you missed the point entirely...MNF actually looks fantastic and has good writing. Most 3dcg games look awful and have garbage writing and/or broken English. MNM has the good writing but as I've been told since writing, it's just that daz3d looks extremely off-putting to my tastes.

Of course most 3dcg games have bad writing and visuals because everyone and their dog try to make porn games and a lot of them aren't native english speakers or didn't even learn it properly in school. When it comes to taste, i'll never understand why people would prefer HS or 2dcg games over DAZ games with good visuals, but taste is nothing to argue about.

To be fair though, your initial point of 'feels extremely generic, almost every 3dcg game looks just like this' could easily be made about Honey Select titles including My New Family, as well. The overall aesthetics will be engine driven, including the models. And if Killer7 weren't to hide the MC of MNF so well, the resemblance to other HS titles would be far more pronounced as there's practically only one suitable male model.

But as Carpe Stultus said, taste is nothing to argue about and I do hope the engine used won't keep you from enjoying the story. Have fun!

Could still have a shower jerk off, or dream scene, but come on her torso is smaller than the MC cock.

Closets full of identical sets of clothing or we riot!

More seriously, I do appreciate little touches like that--while I don't usually notice that characters are wearing the same thing every single day in other games, changing up the models is nice (though I imagine it can get kind of hellish to track on the back-end, with how many different important characters are in your games).

Also, on the note of daz models looking kind of plasticy (which is definitely a general problem with the program), I actually find the ones in this game on the better end of that spectrum. In general, they all seem to have been done really well--no one looks out of proportion, or has super shiny skin, or has hair that looks like it's molded to their head, or any of the other issues that often crop up. They're honestly some of my favorite models on this site so far.

People argue about the style of a program and I'm already happy that Ren'py doesn't overheat and crash my notebook.
