To be honest, I'm starting to get bored while playing the game. It's becoming too predictable and routine. Players want to see some innovation, like changes in animation and art style. One of the biggest issues with the game is that the two responses our character gives are almost identical. If both options mean the same thing, why are there two choices?

I use save and load for some attempts. For example, I become ultra-obedient, and Laura humiliates me at every opportunity. However, when I ask her at Nathan's house, 'You should come home' and she says 'yes,' she follows through and comes home. The game never surprises me. There should be unpredictable rotations.

The character Oliver is different in messages, but in the sex scenes, he’s no different from Nathan. Their penis sizes are drawn the same, and even the positions are identical.

As punishment, I try to secretly flirt with Laura’s friend Ashley, but every time Laura finds out. If Laura is going to find out and there’s no real consequence, then why have two options?

I love the game’s concept and characters, but the new update no longer excites me.


I’d like to offer a few suggestions to the developer. The game could use a bit more spice. For instance:

  • Laura could invite her male friend over without our permission.
  • We could watch Laura from the protagonist's perspective through a crack in the door during a scene in an alcohol-fueled environment.
  • Laura could be blackmailed by people she flirts with or even become a victim of assault.
  • A manipulative man could make Laura dependent on him. She might start using alcohol or weed before intimacy, and we could try to win her back.
  • The main character could regret some of their decisions and face consequences.
  • The protagonist should be able to cheat on Laura with her friends.
The overly optimistic vanilla atmosphere could give way to a more chaotic environment. For example, Laura could cheat on us, and we might only learn about it through a friend based on the correct choices we’ve made.

Let’s break out of this routine. We all want this game to reach greater heights.
This is the COMPLETE opposite of what the dev has said he is trying to make. He is trying to portray a healthy and consensual NTS relationship, there is nothing healthy about these suggestions. These are all terrible suggestions for this type of game, this isnt an NTR game, nor should it become one, theres plenty of other NTR options on this site if thats what youre looking for.

Well, I’m saying that if you’re happy with continuing this way, the answers you give will keep you on this kind of route and you can continue happily. But why not have a different route? I don’t think creating extra text workload and generating images with AI would be that difficult.

I've really enjoyed the past few chapters, but I'm on team NTS and prefer the lighthearted/fun sharing content.

Sometimes it's just a matter of not having a passion for a story angle and so not wanting to write about it. It does seem like one of the benefits of this style of game is that it can become modular/adaptable with a lot of different routes, though!

Then why have any dialogue choices in the game at all? We might as well just read through and move on!

Because the path you're suggesting goes against everything Dev is trying to make and portray. Adding this path would ruin the game and also take away from the development time for the content people love, Dev is a one man team, he cant do multiple story lines and branches without sacrificing time for something else. I don't disagree that the game is stagnating a bit, but adding ntr is not the direction to go, especially since its literally called NTS PHONE. Adding some different sex positions and some more bulls would fix this game up easy enough.

The people that like this game like it BECAUSE it portrays a healthy consensual relationship, stop trying to turn a good NTS game into another shitty NTR game, as i said, theres plenty of options to choose from if this isnt for you.

My suggestions are solely aimed at adding variety to the NTS concept of the game. This wouldn't disrupt the experience of existing players; on the contrary, having more options could appeal to a broader audience. Over the last few updates, I’ve felt that a monotonous cycle has started to form. This could hinder the game’s ability to retain its loyal player base or even expand it.

But within the current concept, what could still excite us? Another person besides Nathan or Oliver? If that happens, what would change? As an extra, perhaps Nathan and Oliver could engage in group sex with Lauren. We've already seen Lauren in every position, in every outfit—probably even the same pose five times or so.

Given the current trajectory, the game has already given everything it can because it's not tied to a meaningful story. For example, in other games with a similar concept, the MC might be trying to pay off a debt or save their marriage—there was a purpose.

Could also add roleplay, different outfits for the wife to wear, new dirty talk maybe some new kinks (things like group sex) that you could avoid optionally. So many different ways to make things more interesting without just resorting to NTR. Once devs start crossing enough lines in netorase often times it eventually starts gettng into NTR territory with the constant trying to one-up whatever happened before. There are more ways to make things interesting then to just keep climbing up that ladder.

What he is trying to portray is a couple opening up their sexual horizons and exploring a taboo and exciting kink together while also staying realistic. Its not realistic to suddenly make MC or Laura go into debt and start getting blackmailed so that Laura has to become dependent on some man to pay off her debts, or for her to start getting blackmailed by guys she has sex with.

Differnet bulls give you different scenarios and situations for Laura to find herself in and excite MC, different oppurtunites for depravity, they behave differently with MC and Laura.

The Dev does not want to create a sense of dread when playing this game, thats the opposite of what he is going for, hes said so himself. There's still plenty of kinks to explore, threesomes(boy and girl), creampies, Anal, one night stands, BDSM, cosplay, roleplay, exhibitionism etc. The list goes on, there doesnt need to be damage to a relationship for something to be exciting, if thats what you need to enjoy this game, then its not for you, simple as that.

You've mentioned a few times that it's not suitable for me, but the decision is mine. I've been following the game since its release and have played every update because it was suitable for me. What I'm saying is that the game no longer offers anything to me. Everything has become monotonous and feels like déjà vu. This can't just be something I think alone. If I'm writing such a long comment, it's because I love the game and respect the developer's effort.

Right now, it's at a bottleneck, and the things you've mentioned, the developer is already doing. For example, the cheerleader costume, etc. I definitely don't think they'll add BDSM. Anal scenes, creampies, and roleplay are already present in the game.

As I said, I've gotten maximum enjoyment and satisfaction from the game, and I'll probably only play the final chapter from now on.

Bullshit take... You have choices to have different flavors of NTS, your suggestions just want it to go completly off rails... this isn't real life where we can have everything happen, things need a scope to have reasonable dev-time...

OK, glad I gave this a chance, especially now that we got to point where the MC is getting naughty pics from the other lasses and got actual physical contact with another one. It feels a bit less cucky now. Also on the dominant route, which helps some so I can choose to let her mess with other dudes or not, at least some of the time.

One thing I really, really don't want, is not to be able to choose whether some other dude gets to creampie her. Rawdogging was bad enough. In the real lifestyle, condom use is mandatory for about 95% of couples. Don't believe what you see in porn vids, those are "fantasies", which I get is part of the whole idea of these games also. I can deal with some stretching of what I would do IRL but certain things just go over the line for me. Also, should be easy enough to just have the choice, so those that want it can say yes. For me, the only person jizzing in my partner's canal is me.

Because it still gives some additional nuance and flavor to characters and their interactions. Even though every time the destination may be the same, the roads are different (compare sub and very dom route, for instance; or the ability to tell Ashley to not call MC "cucky" — I wouldn't like it if it wasn't there).
I don't think I've liked any other kinetic novel on this site, exactly because they give me neither the choice of action (maybe I don't want to have sex with that milf with huge tits), nor any way to define my character a bit. This game does. And it does more than that, since you can choose to not pursue other girls or tell Laura to avoid Oliver.

While people, IMO rightfully so, complained about Fallout 4's dialogue being "Yes", "Sarcastic yes". "No (actually yes, but later)" and "Question (Yes)", it is still better than it being just "Yes".

Was wondering why there was so much angry babble in this thread (not that it's that unusual), but after playing the new version, I can see why. Most mediocre content update so far. I'll blame holiday season for now, but I wouldn't be surprised if the dude is turning on milk-mode. This game makes obscenely more money than it deserves.

In real life 100% agreed, but as you said, this is still porn-fantasy, just like porn videos. I am pretty sure that the majority of players would choose to let her go raw/get creampied, so making a variation of all pictures with Condoms just doesn't seem sensible.

Probably more sensible for one-offs/ons or the MC (yesh, as a sub you can continue using a condom yourself, while Nathan doesn't), but for Nathan, from which we get many pictures for example it is probably easier to just have to do one variation and while I guess any dom player will go raw/creampie/anal ect with Laura as the first, I also think most still would choose to let her do it with the others afterwards, as it is part of the more involved fantasy compared to real life. Just what I think how it is tho, could be wrong.

So often patreon games with monthly updates fall into this problem of players wanting "exciting" updates every month. It's normal in the development of a game to having "boring" sections of the game.

Think of how a normal RPG video game flows. You have some sections of action, and others of dialogue, or travel, or at camp with your party. Not every minute is smashing the enemy with your sword.

If you play Netorase Phone from the start, each update so far generally flows well, and doesn't feel like it's stalling out or boring. I think the actual problem people have is from the fact that the last updates were small and generally set-up.

The devs been quite clear, he has a story in mind and a goal in place, I can't be bothered going to search, but he's mentioned in the past, the stages Laura and our MC are going to traverse. So yes there may be a lot of the same old old same old and then teases that ultimately lead to nothing, but we are setting up something bigger here.

The problem here is simply the medium in which the game is presented. This isn't some Ren'py game with statics and animations. It's told through a phone. It's always going to be tell not show and to be fair, there's not many ways you can present "I fucked Nathan" without it seeming the same.

You're quite right, playing it from chapter 1, the game does just flow and to combat the same old same old feeling that comes of just getting a wall of text from Laura describing her adventuresthe devs tried to mix it up with the group chats etc.

I mentioned this yesterday, but the fact Laura can break the rules is massive. It's no longer "Nath just text me" and then the fallout. Laura's suddenly allowed in the driver's seat and our content possibilities increase

It's better for the story overall if it is a slow burn and these things are earned rather than just thrown out there.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.


Actually, the developer is aware of the monotony and offers an option to break it. A choice that leans a bit between netorare and netorase wouldn't upset anyone. However, even if we give Laura permission to break the rules, she still doesn't do much. For example, the game gives me the chance to flirt with Ashley without Lauren knowing, and I invite her over. When I do this, I believe Lauren should have the right to step out of the netorase concept as well. But at the end of the story, Lauren still knows all about my entire conversation with Ashley. This feels a bit unbalanced.
