I guess you were one of those people who joined the military rather than going to jail for something. I can't think of any other reason someone would be dumb enough to voluntarily join the military and then, within the first few months, do something which blatantly goes against one of the first things drilled into your head upon arriving.

Personally, I don't even remember seeing any officers while in basic. Maybe when we had to do those stupid parades, but you'd have to be a really special kind of stupid to shout at the officers watching everyone march past them. My training was about 30 years ago, times change. Maybe officers like to hang out with the fresh recruits now.

Eh? You know MOST people do not sign up to avoid jail...where the fuck you serve, North Korea...?

Training in the barracks, you would often see CO`s and NCO`s around...were you in the Salvation Army or something....

So, anyways yeah if some cunt driving a beatle blocked me in my driveway, got in my face and demanded my documents while out of uniform...my resounding answer would be "Fuck right off!".

Maybe you would be intimidated by this dodgy cop, many would not though.

Because of age being a seeming factor for some.

The age is the least important part of the patch, you can even set them up at 21 if you want, but not being your daughters makes the story worse

 

[Gibberish666]

I called it. All the reviews are pouring in again. 2 yesterday, 4 today, 8 tomorrow.

Gotta love the fact that the discussion about a semi-gag villian in a porn game turned into something about if his action could be actually legally excused/justified or not

It was a good update overall, the length was okay-ish aswell for the time they spend on it. But still the lukewarm writing, way too many girls being thrown at you way too fast and this absolute joke of a villian is...worrying.

What's the difference between pure and lust? I understand with dark is but I don't know what's the difference between pure and lust

I guess pure is more like beeing a good father but then turn out like dating my daughter. While Lust is more like parental love or Big Brother style.

I suppose I'm one of the few very happy at the inclusion of Vanessa. And not just because you know we weren't getting a sex scene with any of the triplets this early in the game. She's beautiful and a bit nuts. I like her. More than I like one of the triplets (not saying which one.) And they're all three pretty amazing.

And I know I'm the odd one out being eager to have Tiffany and Allison get it on.

 

[ugulugulu]

I'm not unhappy about Vanessa ^^ It's more like a "wtf-moment"

Because this "I am normally notl ike this but I seriously need your dick right now" seems just a tiny bit unbelievable.

I completely agree. I personally play with patch on, but if your going to write something like that, it needs to fit all versions you create. The end teaser makes the MC out to committing some kind of crime, but theres nothing there. It's like how the MC of Single Again acts like hes going to jail for having sex with a not related completely of age girl. I'm wondering what rock of the internet the writers are crawling out from thinking you can go to jail for being a step parent of a legal adult.

 

[Lozloz]

that cop better not start a black mail NTR route with the daughters. We don't need an Eric like piece of shit in the game.

It is not gonna be NTR. For now it doesnt look like it. Well but you see some people think it is more realistic to deal with a blackmailer/stalker/rapist/serial killer before they can enjoy a hot steamy sex. I mean who doesnt. He dealt with Chad to bang the mom and now it is time to deal with the bad cop to bang the daughters.

Ironically, this is the lay out of a fairy tale... once upon a time... then comes the bad guy then they deal with them then ... they lived happily ever after.

If it is hard to make it realistic then maybe they just do the Ol' slow burn story. Imo it makes more sense.

They're doing it like this because of the patreon censorship about incest. They write the story as daughters, and "patch" it for patreon even if it makes less sense. Though if you're not well informed that it's not the real story, you'll find it not coherent (or less coherent if it has other issues)

 

[TessSadist]

I'm torn on a patch because I wouldn't mind playing as a caring father to the girls but if I'm going to seduce them, I'd rather not be the father. (no judgment, just not my thing at all) So using the patch for me might depend on the narrative later, but I empathize that it's hard to write for both styles so to speak at the same time. I might try both...

I think people should at least see how the story develops a little more before drawing conclusions about certain characters. I can only speak from the perspective of having done a lot of story planning and writing, and I see at least three or four super interesting arcs that could occur down the road with the policeman. I'd just wait and see, but I can understand if people didn't like how the intro was handled.

 

[dolfe67]

The cop shouldn't have appeared before v3, a lot already happens in v2. But then it would have needed another cliffhanger... Though Olivia running away after she kissed MC would have been enough imo

the romance looks pretty vanilla for both so I don't mind that much, I don't think that will be something you will care about at all (unless you go the dark route, that is very shitty and you can guess why ) I only just play pure and lust routes, I never like games where you hurt girls for example, so I can understand that a lot of it depends on the narrative and how the devs take care of such things xD

I dont mind Vanessa. I think he was included so that we can have some lewd content without messing up the main girls story, i do think her introduction could have been done better and i do think one entire month of development on one scene for that character was too much.

 

[Meushi]

Ya ...I had no ideea about that...from what I've read/understood is that this delay was basically because they are working on to many projects at the same time.

No ideea about other thing...if that';s the case...then I should apologize.

But you do or they do realize this is causing more harm then good right?

Best be upfront about it.

Nobody is asking anyone to say exactly what happened ...you know just issue a statement "we had a difficult year with a few personal problems and other etc. so on. etc again."

There has been plenty of communication from the devs about the delays, even in this very thread. Alorth's last post talks about him being hospitalized a couple of times. The devs themselves acknowledge 7 months is ridiculous, but shit happens.

So yes, lots of people in this thread should apologize for droning on about development time & communication, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

I'm just happy the update was decent - hopefully the devs difficulties are over and future releases will be closer to the quarterly output they're aiming for.

Vanessa is hot, but I'm wary of the bunny-boiler vibe, so only nailed her on my dark path run.

You're on your own on Tiffany and Allison though, unless you're talking ménage à trois - in which case I'm back on board.

 

[Joyce Harding]

Can we talk about Maddie's ass though? Allison's was a sight to behold also. Not really into ass eating, but some peaches just can't be ignored.

With all the focus on the drama of this past update, we've forgotten to properly perv over our girls.

 

[seamanq]

I know there has been a lot of talk about the time it took to get this update out, but like I said before, great art takes time. This installment does not disappoint on that score. Just one scene, when the MC comes from after the photoshoot with Allison and Tiffany Mae illustrates the point. The mess that Maddison leaves the living room in, with the blanket draped across the end of the sofa is pure artistry, and takes time. Hats off for the wonderful work with dForce on draping that blanket (more likely a plane primitive with an applied fabric surface, but I digress). Setting up and creating an effect like that can take multiple runs and literally hours, and that's just for the blanket. But it makes the scene so natural. Add to that the "spilled popcorn" (I'm not even sure how that effect was created). So my hats off on the rendering and visuals. I love the story development as well, and look forward to the next installment, whenever it may come.

Imagine what they'll be like in 7 months.

 

[seamanq]

Well, they must be doings something right. Only release 0.2 with 265 pages of discussion and 154 votes. Some games take months to get even a fraction of that sort of action.

 

[AL.d]

Good update with many interesting sub-plots developing. I have to agree with previous posters that the cop is one of the lamest villains I've seen here. A person who's well off (as evident by the houser,car and job) would have no issues hiring a good lawyer to fuck him up. Unless dev is using him as red herring and there is more to him that is.
