Thanks you very much for the feedback!
but I personally never wanted to see a specific scene with two girls anyway, only searching for one interest at a time.
This is something I'm on the fence about, and still looking for the best experience. It started as 1 at a time (similar to the do over menu), then became additive (click Reka and Nancy to see their combine scenes (not scenes in which they both are in)), and currently, filtered showing scenes only where multiple characters appear (click Summer and Morticia and see only the scenes they are both tagged in).
I fee like the last option give the most flexibility for finding what players might want. Want only one character, switch that character off when "changing" characters (a bit of hassle/extra step)). Want to find scenes with multiple characters, click all that apply. But, again, extra step of clicking off characters to change pages might be too much of a hassle.
The tags though, I could definitely use them, but maybe they could be incorporated with the old system with the animations?
Tags lose a LOT of power if they are sectioned into characters, because specific tags may never apply to specific characters. So a user would have to click into a character gallery, check a tag, see it isn't there, click out, click into a new character, check if a tag is there. Vs clicking a tag and seeing all the scenes with the tag, then checking a specific character to see if they are included in that list.
With so many scenes being branched/optional, I wonder how you are handling the negative tags? Some scenes could be excluded although their tagged content is avoidable in the scene.
Tags currently apply if a scene has that tag at all, even in a branched choice. This means excluding something you don't want to see, even if it is only an option in that scene, will exclude the whole scene. Not really another way to do it... I'm also not 100% sold on the exclusion tag, feels like a hassle to use for very, very limited use cases.
If you decide to stick with the old Mind Blowers, I would however try to clean up the first screen, which should be for the main cast only: Beth, Summer(s), Morticia, Tricia and Jessica. At least speaking for myself, seeing Nancy and Kiara there can be a turnoff, and Reka just feels out of place compared to the main cast like anyone would.
Taking three characters off the main screen makes it that much more tedious to get to them (who would they be replaced with?), making that unlikely if the old page stays. If I could fit all the cast on one page (a big appeal of the redesign having all character options in one spot), I would.
Coming back to the tags, I feel that Kiss, Lick, Finger, Grope and Jerry aren't that important. Rape and Sleep disturb me to be honest, even to just see the tags is a constant reminder that the game caters for it (I'd forgotten). Two tags that I can think of could be missing are "Zoo" or something like it as there are scenes with Bova or Morty as a CHUD that probably should get their own filter. And the other one maybe "First Time" as I frequently search for the first penetration scene with a girl as the story built up for it and the dialog may refer to it. Though probably taking the first hit of "Vag" for a girl would achieve the same thing now.
Tags are not final, so I'm certainly looking for what suggestions people would want to see. There are lots of possible tags, so they obviously can't all fit. The goal is mainly to find: what players are most interested to filter by, give the best results possible, and have a diverse search options (something like First Time, would really be a sub search of Vag (as you pointed out)).
The issue with something like "zoo" is that only two scenes have this tag (Bova wouldn't be one of them 'alien' not animal).
Again, thank you for the informative feedback. I certainly will consider it while work continues on Part 3.
