From writing standpoints I'm intrigued to see how he would cook a April or Ashelin story, since they simply dont have much room to work with as a mc.
Safe bet would be Lara Croft or Cornelia trainer with the 2 as side.

Idk, what would that even be?
April, Ashelin, and Lara already have trainer arcs in SC34 - the latter twos is even connected with a romantic subplot. So would he just do that again? Probably not, even if he reused the alternative dimension thingy.
I could see him have the Old Man accompany Ashelin to her homeplanet, where he advises her on what to do within the ongoing war - kinda like he advised Jasmin in QT; this would probably trigger a bunch of people though
. As for Lara and April I don't even see such an "obvious" setup, where he couldn't just do a character focused Season 2 episode instead.Lastly his take on Cornelia kinda concluded in QT - yet, I know nothing about the W*I*T*C*H franchise, but there's surely stuff he hasn't implemented, that would make for a satisfying trainer setup.

Hmm, I didn't mean to imply she was the only April people wanna fuck, only that the 1987 version is the one that most people wanna fuck the MOST and the newest ones the least.
Nah, I'm talking about even newer versions of April, think 2018 and onwards.

There came a time when I stopped checking out new cartoons, unless I hear they are incredible. Didn't even watch the new Duck Tales and that's supposedly solid, just never been that into them - if they however bring back Darkwing, I'll buy popcorn
Genie goes to her hometown, and what then? It's tough to create an interesting scenario if you're having here as MC, same with April, There're also not much spin offs and fanfics to borrow from, as you get to work on it.Idk, what would that even be?

Talking bout the Ashelin scenario I suggested?
She either gotta take the lead all over, or in a limited fashion, within that war they are currently waging - that's already setup in SC34. Now she needs help with everyday decisions
- How to motivate the troops
- How to engage the enemy
- What to do to impress her father
- Should she go on that date with Dexter who keeps leaving her messages
- How to make long distance work with Lara
etc.
That's just from the top of my head. Would definitely provide enough room for funny, sexy, and batshit options
It become hard to expand from there.Talking bout the Ashelin scenario I suggested?

First glances always look doable until you get to work on that.
Its on my part that not able to see it working. I'm not a writer, but I do notice that they arent being "written" that much, not much erotica or fanfics on them being made to borrow from. Even when April and Ashelin are definitely someone favorite coming from well known IPs, They are simply tough to work with.
This is the riskiest bet for Akabur because his games are limited in H scenes , it's the writing that hits home and he cant afford it being even the slightest of "mid", which is the problem with QT. QT writing is sexcellent but they cant live up to the previous ones, top of that being nowhere near half finished which akabur keep teasing for a Gold Editon, which supposed to be an expansion, not a cutting room floor.

Well it's not like I'm advocating for this. I'm just sayin' there's enough meat for a start with a potential Ashelin trainer, in contrast to say April or Lara, where though the characters are quite popular is even less to work with, unless you want to redo their SC34 arcs, witch seems pointless to me. Personal opinion season 2 is best call, at the moment.
I personally don't feel that QT is as sexless as some comments make it out to be. It has more CG than both PT and WT - the latter one was basically chibi only. And yes it has a lot of black screen moments that just don't have the art done yet, so what it's fun already. Naturally a visual novel such as SC34 can have way more art since you're not spending time on designing gameplay - imo that's a fair trade-of.
Main conflict I see with Akabur games is the player base. Oversimplified speaking: There's players who really don't care that much about the overall writing when it doesn't directly relate to sex scenes and who'd be happiest when the can basically skip from one sexual encounter to the next and just focus on the pervy outcomes - these players didn't enjoy QT very much for obvious reasons. They are also more forgiving of the older games, since once you got the mindless grind out o the way (maybe even through cheating or a save file) it's basically non stop sexy time. Than there's the players who also enjoy the sex, but are very much sufficiently entertained by Akaburs humor - they had a better time with QT. Being a visual novel SC34 season 2 could make both camps quite happy. You can read or skip as much as you please and you will be provided for. There is also a third player camp that in my opinion doesn't exist. The players who play Akabur games for the gameplay. Why do I believe these don't exist - because prior to QT there was no real gameplay to speak of, it just boiled down to: have character repeat action 3 to 10 more times to unlock next scene. Yet QT focuses much of it's effort on this imaginary player base, since Akabur really wanted to make a game with gameplay. I think he succeeded in that, but without an obvious mark it's not suprising that a lot of folks felt let down.
Well I for one am already curious what this weeks monday post will reveal ...

I really don't get why this keeps happening in porn games. You want to create revolutionary gameplay? Put it in the porn part. Stop trying to put it in the generic game part (why is there even a generic part btw). Like for example (despite the abysmal update speed) Orc Massage actually puts a bit of interesting gameplay in the first massage minigame (the one with connected dots). Do more of that sort of thing, not boring grind that can be in any other normal game.

Some people appreciate putting some effort to get to "the good stuff". Makes it feel "earned".
That's why I started playing these games. Sure, things have evolved since then, and I understand the appeal of many other methods of game design, but I bet there are still plenty of people that want to feel they earn the reward.
So... I hope that explains it for you.

Didn't play Orc Massage so you might be thinking of something else entirely, but when I hear a phrase like "gameplay in the porn part" I have to think of these old timey porn flash games where you had to click really fast or shake your mouse around like mad to fill a meter and progress the scene, click the right spot at the right time to undress the girl an inch of clothing at a time, maneuver your mouse through a labyrinth without touching the walls in a certain amount of time, or do a w-a-s-d quick time event, and the likes ... That was abysmal
.Sup, well im got 3 of 4 endings and im still dont know how to buy birthday cakes, also, my gallery is empty, im seen some chibis and cg, but in gallery saves only trained girl scenes, is that a bugs? Any advice?
Ps Birthday cake unlock only if u get true ending, still, i have 4/4 endings, 20+ achivments, im not rush main story, and i have 99% gallery locked..

Single marriage should suffice to buy a birthday cake from Balsam - maybe check if you have the latest version.
Gallery isn't unlocked automatically for the most part, you need to purchase the gallery segments from Black Dahr, who'll start randomly showing up at the market at night, once you have married everyone and thrown a new years party for them (maybe you need only be married and throw the party, and maybe marrying everybody is enough - I noticed him after both had happened to me).
I think he started showing up to me when I hadn't yet married Vivi, though I'd married all the other girls other than Jasmine. And I've not yet thrown a New Year's party.

Maybe marrying Jasmin specifically is the trigger? She was my last wife which I married jit for the Party (as if I had planned it ^^). Can someone confirm?
Than again we can only say it's not Vivi, not all, and not the party. Story wise it would make sense if Lily was the trigger since she associates with Black Dahr ... idk
I think it was not long after I'd married Lily that Black Dahr started showing up.
black dahr broke for me and i cant buy anything else from him despite not owning anything. is there any solution or am i fucked?
