Le Stag, could we please have a $1 or $2 option. No rewards necessary, just to show support. I simply can't stretch to a proper membership and I'm sure it's not just me. Personally I prefer Subscribestar as Patreon are too quick to ban and suspend accounts.
Patreon allows custom amounts. Follow, then the 'upgrade' button allows you to select an amount.

Probably referring to the text threads from the one code named as "Ellie", Who I also guess is also the blue haired girl code named "Random Girl 1" due to similarities. I'm also guessing she's Nathans "Ex" or perhaps on again off again girlfriend.

Netorase Phone is a well-made "phone" game. This game does a solid job of having a natural flow in its texting/sexting exchanges (and with a minimum of spelling errors, thankfully). Different message speeds and delays help to create a semblance of reality as characters appear to excitedly respond quickly to something, or pause as if to think and formulate a response. I liked that. The game's UI elements and apps all help to create a more immersive experience for the player as well. The art is nice and consistent, and the character art is pretty.

The developer, Le Stag, is responsive to player feedback and seems to understand that NTS comes in different flavors. Despite some issues I appreciate the fact that they did their best to include different kinds of routes for different players to explore. Not everything can be addressed, of course, in the various respective routes in order to keep the game's plot moving forward. Story elements, character development, and the evolution of various kinks of characters as they get themselves entwined in new, lewd situations are more important than a few stray lines of text that doesn't always fit in a given route anyway, right?

In any case and without kinkshaming, this player is looking forward to a more dominate stance for the male MC in the coming update. I'm also looking forward to how the game will handle breaking Tara out of her shell down the line. (She's a real cutie pie with some nice abs!) Can't wait to see more development on the cuckquean front along with any possible group or swinging action but I haven't heard anything on the latter admittedly. The addition of certain character types hinted by the dev should be fun too. All in all, the future of the game seems bright! All the best to the dev. Cheers!

IT person here. I haven't experienced a memory leak like this on any version of the game that I have played on multiple devices. With that said, if you would like to PM me with your system Specs and configuration, I'd be happy to point you in the right direction. A good starting point would be to open command prompt as administrator and copy & paste in the following | dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth | and let that do it's thing. Once finished, I'd then run the line | sfc /scannow |. After that I'd make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date, that your running the latest version of directX, and that your motherboards bios is up to date.
Whilst I am having ZERO problems running the game , I can also report the same high memory usage of around 3,300 MB.

Just for the hell of it I ran cleanup and scannow ...no change in the memory usage.

My specs ...Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 64-bit , DirectX 12 and 12288MB RAM

AMD A6-6400K APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics, 3900 Mhz, 1 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)

There are a few scripts causing memory issues still in the game. They're from the asset pack I'm using for the UI.

I'm currently removing them from the game. They won't be there anymore with version 0.13. They were the most reported issue according to my Analytics, especially on Android, and were probably causing the game crashing at launch on phones.

On a not so unrelated topic, I've shared a proper roadmap for what's currently planned, what I'm working on, and what's done. You can find it . Keep in mind these are plans, not a promise of what will be in each update exactly, as I'm not skilled enough to properly know what I'll really be able to implement in each update. But it should give you a better view of what I'm working on.

Following a lot of feedback, I'm planning on improving a lot of things in current content. Especially in recent chapters, including the divisive Chapter 27. I'm also reworking a lot of things on the Dominant route, as planned, including the way Oliver interacts with you in it.

In absolute transparency, I have never booted the game on anything using a FM2+ chip like that before. Le Stag has just stated that he believes the asset pack he's using for the UI is causing memory issues. Not sure if relevant but if it could be since your running the game without a dedicated GPU with VRAM, that it's possibly loading it into system memory. Which would explain why your RAM usage is so high and why some Android phones are affected too. A system like that should have a PCIe X16 slot. Have you considered getting an aftermarket graphics card, while Le Stag fixes the memory issue in patch 0.13?

I'm just a leecher, so I don't have any opinion on the matter, but please try and change some of Oliver interactions with Laura as well. Some spanking, hair pulling, cum play... :cry:
Honestly, supporting creators isn't an option right now, so I won't make any false promises, but you'll forever be in my heart of these things get added! :love: Hahaha

I do not currently have any problems associated with high memory usage ...but I will have a look into your suggestion.

I have had the game running in the background since my first post and the memory usage has now dropped under 1000 MB!

There used to be a random girl who texted you photos. I just restarted a new game and havent gotten anything yet so I was wondering.
are you talking about the spam? you will get random meet up locations? with random girls? i think the more you play they will pop up or depending on the route you take some what.

Yes, I took the balanced route so I guess those dont appear or are they totally removed from the game is my question.

Looks interesting, while I don't care much for the dom-paths thats of course good for the dom players (and hey, once I get around to play em after the rework I am not complaining about having it either :D), but a little rework of Oliver seems like a nice thing for the sub-route too, I do like him as the more demeaning/humiliating bull compared to Nathan, but having it made clear through non-sexual-conversation that it is a role/persona for sex and that he can be a proper guy outside of it will be nice for the netorase, should alleviate the "netorare feel" that some people have with him :D Do hope he stays the way he is in sexual scenarios though and does indeed continue to play that role xP

And I really do hope the Ashley teasing change comes trough ;) I do love the teasing and bickering of Ashley and the MC and I would like that to continue even for my very-sub-play where my MC does not touch anyone but Laura :D Fantasies are still fine after all xP

Generally cool to have a sort of overview what you are thinking/working on, props for that :3

What i love in this game is that there are many routes available for us to choose from.Personally i love every kind of nts(dominant,submissive etc) so i dont mind but what worries me from this roadmap is that i notice a heavy swift towards more dominant route(oliver not being an asshole for example).I like the dominant route as i said but i really hope dev dont focus only on that and keeps making content for humiliation/submissive route cause there arent many nts game with good humiliation play.For example the humiliation scene with nethan roleplaying is by far one of my favourites scenes in any nts game.There should be diversity and let people just choose the route they want to play

Am I alone in telling Oliver to do one? Laura says he's just roleplaying, but he strikes me as an unlikeable dickhead who's trying too hard to be dominant. Went back through a play- through, and instructed Laura to drop him. Rest of the replay seems much more fun.
Actually- thinking about this (possibly a bit too much)- we could keep Oliver involved, but diminished- have a threesome with him, MC and Laura where he gets put in his place, and occasionally send HIM pics. Nathan seems OK though, and understands the relationship.

That goes into completly different thing happening on routes again tho, there are enough people that like Oliver in principle (even in the "harder" state he is right now) and dom players can then avoid him if the rework isn't enough for them, having him branch into two paths, one were he contiues and one were we do what you said, then we are back at the problem that making content will take longer and longer.

I think Le Stag going with the approach to make some characters/things avoidable, but keep the overall routes of them simple is good, because the nice development-cycle, instead of the typical months between updates, is also a selling point of the game :)

everyone who complaining about memory leak and PC problem...
I am IT guy too, who also worked in big game development company and here my recommendation:
buy more memory
buy GPU
buy new PC
This is year 2024
new 8GB memory, which is more than enough, cost 11 USD
mini PC with Windows 10, 8GB memory cost around 80-100 USD
new decent GPU starting around 100 USD
many hours of developer work to fix your specific random problem without any guaranty it will be fixed - cost 2000-3000 USD at least
please, do the math
