I think the game is in the best state right now in terms of gameplay and balance. The scenes are quite easy to come by naturally without focusing on passing the threshold for the specific scenes, especially in endless mode. It is almost too easy, to the point true mode might even be better for a bit of a challenge. As for the scenes, the introductory update of any character is expected to not be too "out there". I think they had already mentioned that. The "main scene" of this update was way beyond expectation even from the preview post on Patreon. That is some high-quality content.
A lot of the "criticism" on this forum has remained the same from very early updates of the game, despite gameplay improvements and a ton of new content added since, really weird to see. I think some people just come here to farm reactions and not contribute to the discussion so hope the devs ignore "those".
when you consider that her husband Brad is this kind of peak physical specimen
I think part of that is intentional, if you're familiar with Japanese NTR games, you will know what I'm talking about. Usually, the guy getting cucked is the most handsome one or seemingly the most likable but the wife is not "satisfied", which mostly stands true for the Damon arc. As for Brad, yeah, not a fan of the character but from what I have seen, he does have a lot of fans.
But I'm a bit disappointed in the quality of the male suitors.
That being said, I do agree none of the male characters are really likable, although, I doubt they are meant to be. There is another slot left in the restaurant though, maybe a chad male employee to rescue Toscana?
Doubt they have any plans for such an arc though as even the content of the current arcs is halfway mark imo, so they shouldn't have to worry about that now.
