I decided to give this another go as I'd only played the very first teaser before.
Some positives:
+ The art is great and I'm glad that quality has been kept up.
+ There's a good range of characters so stuff for everyone to be into (Cindy and Ivy are my favourites).
+ Seeing things from multiple perspectives can help with the character building (and is kinda necessary given the large cast).
+ I'm excited about getting to play more of the game (which might not sound like much but is kinda the most important thing).
+ Cheat option at start, I like just getting to make the choices I want to, I don't want to have to care about points and things stopping me from saying and doing what I want, that option is really freeing.
Some Negatives:
- I still find the swapping of MCs a bit jarring.
- Rolling back to a choice is still disabled (so requires a lot of quick save and quick load to explore things, and gets tiresome).
- Whenever someone stutters it puts out the sentence in pieces, as I read quickly I hit space once I've seen the line without realising there's more to come and then skip it as it flashes up so need to rollback... people that use instant text strangely enough want text to be instant, the '-' in the writing is good enough to indicate the characters pause, forcing one into the reading got annoying quickly.
- Not much filth yet, but I'm liking where things are headed and this just requires patience on my part.
Some small errors:
* As others said, trying to load a save while ingame actually saves, you need to exit to the menu.
* File "game/chapter_5.rpy", line 3463, in <module>
NameError: name 'v3_cindy_shoot' is not defined
How I'd like stuff to play out:
^ Male MC gets Cindy, turns her into some cokeslut porn girl.
^ Female MC gets whorey and gets Ivy, turns her into a devoted housewife (I get this isn't likely).
^ Female MC also has a little Holly on the side and find a way to get her to be slutty or a sub.
^ Black friend can have moderately attractive friend I'm not fussed about her.
^ Fat roomate can have unattractive friend, again, I'm not that fussed about her.
^ Cindys current BF can just get lost.
^ Needy roomate's fixations can be redirected to female MC's ex, and then he obviously cheats and she goes full psycho.
^ Waiter co-worker gets fired and becomes a bum.
^ Coffeshop folks get enough money to keep the place open but only by turning it into something seedy.
But yeah, all in all I was impressed that so much more content had been added since the first time I checked it out, I'm used to games crawling along at a snails pace ... I really want to get some more of the game, especially if things start kicking off soon ... I hope I've not made the book terrible just by picking what I thought sounded cool - I wonder what that whole mechanic actually effects or if it's just there for flavour.
