Soooo, Hear me out here, I can't be the only person who thinks that once the game is "complete" they should go back and make a NG+ where you can play the MC as a Bad guy, not like a Team up with hunter bad guy but like a kills/castrates hunter&drew bad guy and takes over hunters plan, it could be like 2-3 chapters and plays off the point where MC jokes that he forgot he's not a "monster" outside of his moms room, the whole premise would be that MC had a Much worse life when her left and became WAAAAY smarter in the worst way, but have 2 endings 1 where he still uses "love" fueled by drugs&hypnosis to win and one where he uses tactics similar to hunter that have him turn into the spitting image of hunter. I Feel like it would be fun to see hunter on the defensive almost terrified of the monster he decided to challenge(which is what would prompt him to call drew much sooner) because he was dealing with something smarter,stronger and faster in every way. the whole premise of the first NG+ chap. would be the mc sneaking into hunters room when he's asleep drugging him hacking his computer and paying the house off in full then you could choose to show the girls a recording from hunters own camaras where he admited his plan or continue to "play" along to torture hunter more and more until he breaks... just a thought that might be fun for after the final chapter of the main game is done.

Why a new game + mode instead of stand alone spin-off? It seems to me that people who would prefer a more cutthroat Sterling would get annoyed at the (comparatively) wholesome version, and people who aren't expecting the personality change might be off-put by it. It's like, lots of people enjoy both pineapple and pizza but think combining them is disgusting.

Why is there a screenshot of the slumber party through the ceiling vent? Is that the old bastard up to his schemes again or just a directorial choice to have a birds eye view for that particular shot? lol.

actually... i want to suggest that as a what if. "what if sterling actually DID do some horrible things". what he does, i'll save for the what if.

You mean like deliberatly sabotage the Wifi just to coax his own mother into stripteasing naked for him so he can jack off to it? or conspire with his sisters best friend just so he can cross the ultimate taboo line despite her repeated hesitance to? He does do horrible things - if it was the same events but Hunter doing them you would think "shithead" but somehow Sterling gets a pass when he does it so people still see him as a good guy lol (I think the only ones you could argue he has not directly corrupted of his own free will so far has been Lucia, Amber and i suppose the maid). Sometimes i think "absolutely zero chance that this aint gonna end well" like how he tried to take his aunts virginity knowing fine well it was being recorded by a jealous flatmate.

Im not even saying its a bad thing, i like the dude and i like the story but we dont even need a what if pertaining him doing dark stuff willingly. He is not on Hunters level but he is miles away from being a saint too.

yeah, but he also wouldn't do any of those if he though it would hurt them.

what i'm talking about is doing things along that line, but not caring if it would. strictly for his own lust.

I never really cared for that part it seemed out of character for him and made me dislike him a bit. I thought maybe Hunter would do something to the wifi just to "help" Sterling corrupting both of them in the process.

Can I DL it from the links on the first page here, or is that still the test version (had all sorts of missing image links, or made Ch 1-7 unplayable - something like that)

No one really knows. it's 60%'ish done. In theory it could be 2 more months, but WWG said he doesn't like to make these % guesses because they are usually off by about 10% or something like that. he said it on his discord iirc. so i'd rather play it safe and say give it 3 months.

I just finished this game. Do you have any recommendations on games that are this good?
