1st Point: I agree to a degree on the main cast, there does need some more variety to fill out the roster before things get stale. If it was just the main girls and no side character to 'dip your wick in' ever once in a while it becomes Incest Simulator (or would it be Clone Sex Simulator? Dunno, don't care.) So having them isn't a bad thing per say just different for the sake of pacing.
I meant more "one-off" characters like Plantina or Frank's Mom (yes I know she technically has more than one scene). As a player, the connection to the character is more important (to me) than just the sex. If I want just the sex, there are other ways I can enjoy that sort of content. I like some porn in my story over just porn, or porn with a story.
Most of the one-and-done girls just do nothing for me. Every now and then they work, but mostly I'm here for incest simulator. Doesn't mean I don't understand why players like them, nor am I saying people shouldn't like them, they just aren't my thing (here or in other games).
2nd Point: I wouldn't say that. Beth knows Morty is after Jessica (who isn't in the know about her, it's all he talks about).
Primarily, that post was talking about where the Unity version is at (not this game, where more characters are in on the players escapades). For the most part (in the Unity version), few characters know about who Morty is involved with. Which is why I think Beth/Summer or Beth/Morticia scenes are still far off.
Personally, I'd still love a Summer/Summer/Morty scene, and we got so close last update.
The Lesbian Threesome showed Summer/Autumn/Morticia that Morty is pounding Beth's factory through the use of a portal to spy on them Post-Planetina breakup sex. (Still my most favorite one by far).
Original scene, only for the Renpy game.
The only characters i haven't pieced together if anyone knows about are: Maple from the Creampie event with the wine, The Collector's "collection of whores", Female Rick, Tammy, Nancy, Kitty (Frank's Mom), Keira (Jerry's Huntress Girlfriend), Morty's Gym Partner (can't think of her name at the moment), Unity (I think Summer is suspicious but not outright seen), nobody knows about Fascist Beth, Summer and Jessica so it's self contained to just Morty & Rick.
At least for the Renpy version, the only other person other than Morty that really knows about most of the side characters, is Morticia, who has looked through Morty's Mindblowers on his phone.
3rd Point: Tricia is fully aware of Summer/Morty but she's more connected to those outside of the family in her experiments. To be honest, i think her head would explode in awe if she knew the full extent of how much sex Morty has with everyone. Still repressed as ever, it feels like the post-blackout /Elvis Marriage thing and she just backed way back after that. Story wise, this looks like backtracking to me.
Yeah, Ferdafs really hasn't moved her story forward for a while unfortunately. There are two scene published after the wedding incident which were: "Not the Bees!" and "Bechdel Test".
In the renpy version, Bechdel Test got placed earlier in time (mainly for Morticia, as the scene is mostly about her (also it shows Jessica with Brad, who are current broken up after Unity's (the character) party and haven't reconciled in either game))). But very little dynamic between Tricia/Morty in the scene anyhow.
And while Not the Bees happens after the black out event, it again has very little interaction between the two. More than likely we'll have to put together a scene to resolve the issue at some point, but until we have more on Tricia, I'm hesitant to move her forward.
4th Point: it does fit the norm for Ferdafs, but like you said: bad communication. We're not privy to know the complete storyboard Ferdafs' for in mind for everyone and the pacing is about 2 months if not 3 for updates. As long as he's putting alot of work in making a fucking best selling novel as his gold standard for writing - sex is secondary and a bonus. I just hope things start clicking into place and the ever filling universe roster of fuckables doesn't outpace what is necessarily manageable to work in favor of the game itself. Not Overreaching.
I've been playing the Unity game nearly from the the start, and working on the Renpy version for a few years now. I would say that outside of the wandering mechanic, my next biggest issue with the Unity version was how there are very few connections between scenes. Yeah, single character stories sometimes build from the last one, but mostly they are largely standalone scenes. I've added a lot (maybe too much) of extra bits to try and tie things together, hoping to make a cohesive story, instead of a bunch of random scenes.
Or to put it another way, I'm not holding my breath that loose ends will get tied up, or major plot elements will get resolved by Ferdafs.
aaronminus and I will do our best to have things make as much sense as possible. But there are limits we have to stay within (mostly self imposed by me).
Although ... i still wouldn't be against more events with Tricia since she's technically the first to really fuck around with Morty since the beginning. She just checks a alot of boxes for crazy church girl that's up to get down and dirty. Reminds me of my ex girlfriend in alot of ways - wild times ... Butt fun times. Hehe!
After Beth/Summer/Morticia, Tricia has the next most scenes, so I'm sure we will get more of her, if not soon, at some point.
