Yeah, when I mention a slow burn I was referring to Evelyn since in these games the "Landlady" its usually a slow burn type of relationship that takes several updates before something meaningful happens, in this case it was 2 years and yet that particular moment haven't arrive yet and to be honest I don't expect it will happen in the Evelyn focused update , I hope I'm wrong and this comment its just me being cynical, but I've played too many of these games to not get the hint when a particular content it's not a priority.Well slow burn is not exactly fair to the dev, there is plenty of action with other girls, though I agree with your point. Thing is dev made a development decision to based upon request, own fun, story reasons we do not know yet to develop 2 characters way ahead of all others and put a lot of time in that.
This had the disadvantage though that all other girls in game including Evelyn and Rachel and their stories felt stalled for a long time in real time. I am pretty sure dev had always planned adding the dad and such.
Unfortunately the disadvantage of their earlier choice is that by now adding elements in game like the dad that further delay developments with girls, it feels to some as dragging their heels instead of the excitement it would have brought 1,5 years ago, especially if it is the kind of storyline with having to overcome another asshole again that some including myself do not really like.
Disadvantage of a work in progress, where time between updates can make work things that will work quite well in final completed game, work quite badly in development due to long time between updates since devs can unfortunately not magically produce all content in a day, it takes long work. Overall game still has a lot of good content though and story, so while I myself will also skip on updates till we are beyond certain storylines, I def hope the dev will deliver the game she wanted to make over time.
And you are correct that there is plenty of content with the other characters, at least there is something to keep the players entertained, and about the developments, decisions I think it was a strange way set the priority of the content, however, since the reasoning behind it its not clear I won't speculate about it, the dev most had her reasons and while I don't agree with it I respect her decisions, its her game after all.
I'm with you that the same old story of defeating the asshole (that for some reason its always better that you at getting girls and as long as he is on screen you get the NTR vibes a mile away) its one of the few storylines that just bore me, maybe because I played too much big brother back in the day but this stories often focus on ruining the plans of the asshole with a girl and not in developing your relationship with that girl.
And finally you are correct that in these situations it's better to wait a few more updates until the content arrives, that's what I thought...... almost 2 years ago so I guess ill wait another year.
And I'm sorry if this post sound as a complain, but I'm just tired of seeing the same story repeating itself over and over in these games.
