I'm not interested in speed, it doesn't matter how many days it takes to finish. What matters is that you have fun playing. And in my eyes you can only have it without walkthrough. It's an absolutely brilliant game and when we play with walkthrough we can't see it. I am really enthusiastic, also with the technical implementation. For example, if you play from the beginning. You have to play all the updates in sequence. As if you play separate chapters one after the other. The new updates have no influence on the old content, so that any amount of errors caused by the new updates is avoided . It is a simple and absolutely ingenious solution. Most game developers have problems with it.

I know, means the black-screen from 3.5 into 5.0 is wrong, if you Start new with v6.0 beta? Not a big deal to change this. Please be so kind and PM drhotrod to solve these errors in the WT until v5.0 beta, you complain first.

A new members like this game, but with less experience as you have in many games here, think about this. This WT until v4.0 is a lift to get use to all timings and open the option to join later ;). Than you can go for fun. To run v5.0 in 27 days with 100 events isn´t that easy., or advice drhotrod.

In v2.4-4.0 many question in this forum from new members with ( 2 post and 0 like) this is the target in future:cool:
Yes, I wrote to drhotrot.

Well well, looks for me we a little too far here with v6.0. I wait until v6.0 is published by the Dev. Of course I can play this now as supporter and send my view, but for whom?

The future is here, for all wishes.:) New players, new ideas maybe new supporter. Let´s look first that everybody end up well with v5.0 and continue later into v6.0. No one can work with "bubbles" only insider! But this is another page.:cool:

You can play through the whole game, from start to finish in one day without the slightest problems (played with V6.0). You don't need any hints or locator, it just spoils the fun. For two weeks now, I've been one of the Patrons, because I really love the game. I think it's good that V6.0 has not been leaked yet. It would be desirable that all games in the F95 would be released with the public version. So everybody can play the game and if they like it, they can switch to the Patrons. So every game developer will be satisfied and probably post the public version himself. I was recommended the game three weeks ago and after playing it I was thrilled and now I belong to the patrons. To develop a game takes a lot of time. So I don't like the fact that the patrons post the game here before the public version and the game developers lose potential patrons.
Lose potential patreons ? What do you base this on ? Most developers with a few exceptions accept that participation in this forum is a massive gain to patronage not loss due to the enormous free advertising generated by formidable membership that F95 has. This game tends to be riddled with bugs on every release so the amount of free generated bug testing on here usually with solutions should be of help not hindrance Of course some of the whining and complaining is pathetic but most knowledgeable devs ignore unproductive comment (the more sensitive ones tend to implode) You also assume devs grace us with public versions for patreon conversion they dont generally they do it because without F95 being on patreon would be pointless The best devs on F95 gain patronage not by stealth but by quality some devs on here release to F95 and Patreons at the same time Some patreons would baulk at this bitching that they are supporters others like me support not for advantage but because the game deserves support So devs with weak games tend to bitch most (of course some are greedy)

What I can't understand, some people complain about "Room for Rent" and write how bad it is. But every month they keep playing it, why??? If something is not for me, I leave it and never play again. Developing a game is hard work and we are all just people. And we all make mistakes, the question is not if, only when the next one will come. In history there has never been and there will never be a person who doesn't make mistakes. The game developers are under enormous pressure to deliver an update every month. Besides, it's only little things and you can finish the game without any problems. There are rarely bugs that make it impossible to continue playing the game. Often there is a way around the bug. An example in Big Brother V0.5 there was a bug. If you blackmailed Eric with a photo, the progress was reset and nothing could be done. But you could work around it if you were advanced enough on "Lisa girlfriend path" and started the Kira lessons. With the next lesson the bug was fixed. On the Olivia path you couldn't avoid the bug because there were no lessons with Kira. At that time I reported the bug and the possibility to work around it. It is a very well known game, so I used it as an example. And with many other games there is often a way out.

Yes, I support Room for Rent, which is why I wrote it. I only took BB as an example because many people have problems with RFR and complain about the game. I am thrilled with RFR.

It would be a win for the game developers, but only if the public version was posted on F95. If you post the Patrons version it is a loss, because many people don't see a purpose in supporting the game. Because you can get the latest version for free. Imagine that you work in a computer company and your boss comes and says. From next month you will earn 30% less because our products are illegally provided for free. Don't I know if you would have felt the same way after that?? I'm sure they'd get angry.

You and Burt are right depence from the view. All issue up to the future of this game, as I wrote before.

18.12.2019 the Dev post this:
Simply wrong - the 5_0 will be public December 20th and 6_0 some time in January! You don´t need to pay.

A date for v6.0 is very welcome! Burt get a option to review the game. Your post are not advertising a version which is deleted by the admin here.

Thanks' for your inputs. I can tell you that this is not true. Every time my game has been shared without my permission - the numbers of Patreon's have dropped drastically. When a guy released 6_0 alpha that was given to my best supporters - the money I try to earn dropped by more than 30 %. All versions will be available for all approximately 1 months after my Master Members got access to the game. 6_0 will be available January 27th. In my opinion it's not fair to the guys who support me and even help me to make a better game - if I just share it for everybody at same time. I agree that F95 is a great forum to show your game - that's also why I do it this way.

It might be that you didn't go to washing room at 17:00 and again at 18:00 but don't know which chapter you are playing

I think I followed the step-by-step procedure to the letter and until what happened corresponded to what was planned on the other hand, when was the time to go to the bathroom at 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. (I didn't see that in the procedure, unless it was the laundry room, otherwise yes, I did until the 32nd day ) thank you

far to grinding and jarring to achieve nothing
I agree with you. If you’re looking for click and watch entertainment this game is not for you. To avoid grinding and jarring you need to think about your next step - otherwise you’ll not make any progress. That’s why I call it a game :cool: There are thousand of novels out there that might meet your requirements, so don’t spend your time with this game. :)
Cheers

V5.0 Try this - 100 events divided by 27 days=3,703703703703704 events every day-:cool: ,703.. is a grind you right.
Not mention the skip option, than it´s 5-6 events every day. To get a update every month mention above from the Dev for v6.0 and 7.0 end next month, hard to find top games there reach this scedule for free.

needs an options to disable the fade in between every single image, if you manage to play it for more then a hour, you will soon feel like smashing your monitor on the wall on the otherside of your room

the fade is 4 seconds for each image

So to clarify whats been said here leaking games is bad? Becuase i have provided many updates for a range of games over the last year. Way i see it is we pay the dev to help with development not to get something in return or exclusives.
I love this game and its on my watch list. Not going to lie if i pledge i will leak minute its available. Nothing personal at all this is after all a pirate site . Look adult games are super expensive say for instance a game has a 3 year development and your a 50 dollar supporter for those 3 years thats 1800 dollars for a completed game . So no offence but if your paying that much you should be allowed to leak it, if its an alpha and has no bugs then that too is fair gain to be leaked.
As for drops in supporters every single month supporters drop out on nearly every game and more come in.
I get peoples points of view on this subject i really do however i have also seen piracy help adult devs as patreon is crowd funding nothing more nothing less
We pay to see a game finished hell you could release a game in a 1 dollar tier every update and if games good you will get far higher supporters.
Not trying to be a dick just trying to explain why i leak games.
In regards to this game however i do agree that test versions should not be leaked as even polished versions sometimes have the occasional bug.
And finally i would like to point out this is a pirate site, pirates have no morals or loyaltys. If we can steal something we will and us pirates like to share our plunder. So when we have access to something no one else does then of course we are going to share. Also we are all sick twisted perverts and in my experience nothing can stop perverts from getting the porn they crave.
That said great game keep up the good work. Might pledge but as i said will leak full builds if i do.
