I seem to recall from original game LlamaMann was calling it a beta for most of the games multiyear development. This is a common problem with indie devs cause they don't know how version designations are traditionally applied and even if they do it's worth remembering they're 100% arbitrary in the first place.
Llama has always had the same system. Release the beta first. Elite members and above go through it with a fine tooth comb and report on any bugs or typos and Llama fixes them asap. After that period passes Llama does the official update release. It's not his fault f95 doesn't keep on the official releases and always leaks the beta version.
In previous updates, I was one of the people saying the game felt like it was in a limbo state, just sort of drifting, because the story hadn't received enough attention to give everything context and purpose. To me, felt like the game was just cycling back through entry-level sex scenes, and I was left questioning whether the "soft reset" was really worth it.

All that being said, I think this update was a great step in the right direction. It introduces the new main villain and her goals, and the setup for her relationship with the MC is waayyyyy more fascinating to me than the relationship between the MC and Melvin, the original antagonist (who I actually thought was already a great antagonist). Hats off to Llama, because he took Mai, who I originally dismissed as uninteresting/unattractive in the first updates of Recalibrated, and made her way more appealing, just through plot developments/story. She became fun, sexy, and dangerous all at once, when she appeared in his doorway after prom. And dare I say endearing? Not every day you see a woman go to such lengths to win over a guy.

What's more, this update introduces some interesting character relationships that are likely to spiral out of control, like the growing jealousy between Lexx and Alexa and Melvin's new role. To me, Sexbot has always been a special gem of a game because of its wild and whacky nature, and I think Llama certainly introduced story elements that will serve as a great springboard for future spontaneity.

Hats off to Llama. He listened to those in the community who were wondering about the story, and made several additions in that direction.
I mean yes, but Sexbot 1 had plenty of story that had multiple layers for us that paid attention.
They're simply rising more to the surface in Recalibrated.

Slow down on the hyperbolic comment.
There is a LOT of content on this release.
Besides it was already said in this thread and discord this specific update would take longer. Llama was going to implement all days to push the main story further before going back to add more events each day.
Its not hyperbolic. The time between updates was multiple months, for a a small number of scenes, most reusing assets from the first game. There is NOT a "LOT" of content here. If you ran it back to back instead of having to loop through, you are looking at maybe, maybe 10 minutes.
Building "days" doesn't involve much? A base script for the day, or events... which are mostly there from the first game...
Like, I have actually bought the first game. And the DLC. Despite having it for free from f95. I like the man's work, and maybe got spoiled on fast updates. The visuals, outfits (definitely need Ashley's bunny outfit from the Easter images in the game somewhere), and such are great. The humor is awesome. Just has slowed down.

As point out by Just Jericho above the bolded part of your comment is a blatant lie.

Also if you think game development is so easy then go on and prove it. Instead of acting like a armchair dev make your own game and post it here for people to check it out. I am sure a couple of months should be enough if it is too easy, right? :rolleyes:

Changing names and relationships during the game will help a lot... When asked how I would address Sam I entered Sis and now everyone calls her Sis ...

OK ... i can do it in my phone :)

Hmm, I don't know, the game is slowly losing me a bit. All this new "sharing" and "poly" stuff seems a bit too forced for me, just to cater to every niche. But somehow it's drifting a bit away from the original idea, in my opinion. Everyone can see things differently. But I don't want to share the girls (who are basically "my" girls in the game) with Melvin, Steve, or others. I also really hope the protagonist's penis doesn't get "even" bigger. I've always enjoyed the narrative immersion, and now it's slowly losing me with the dull processing of fetish gratifications from people who seem to be the loudest. Alexa, for example, seems to have completely lost her femdom ways and is only practicing gentle dom, the same goes for Lexa. Hmm... I don't know. Well... if this really continues in this direction, another game that started off great will be pushed in the wrong direction, in my opinion. Hey... but that's just me. To each his own. You can't please everyone. If you feel like you're in this game, have fun. And LlamaMann Games continues to deliver one of the best and most unique games you can play. Along with Being a DIK, it's definitely still my favorite.

I don't mean any of this in a bad way, and please don't take offense. I just really like the Sexbot project and am sharing my thoughts. Please consider this unimportant criticism and a high-level nitpick. I love this game especially for it's femdom parts and scenes. I just don't like that now other dudes get on the girls. :D

Then don't...

Out of 36 gallery scenes in the game already so far and you think the game is going in the "wrong direction" because of two optional sharing scenes and one optional pseudo-ntr scene with Melvin...

Does this even have a walkthrough like the first one? It said somewhere "in-game walkthrough" but I can't find it

Did it seem to me or did the characters (face) become a little scarier in appearance? Especially SAM, she needs to be completely remade because she is terrible.

It's hilarious how they always focus on the optional scenes they can easily avoid and act like it's the majority of scenes and get so wound up about them they can't focus on the story lol

Not to mention Llama is not a people pleaser and no one is pushing him to do anything. He's just a big perv that is letting his freak flag hoist higher little bit by little bit.

If anything making a game with no kinks would be abnormal for him.

You harem, Romance guys better buckle up, because as MC gains confidence the risks and consiquences for ignoring the girls also gets higher. So you better get used to making sure you make the choices for content you want to see and avoid content you don't want to see.

Or you know, secretly keep satisfying your inner kink goblin and come here to whine about it in an episode of self shame and self loathing and blame shift it onto Llamaman, because he certainly has a bunch of wealthy horny kink monsters throwing him money and demanding perversions that would make the devil blush lol

The funny thing about this is some of his higher level supporters are romance guys and they make the right choices and avoid all the bits they don't want to see without complaints.

The funny one to me is when people complain about the Ashley scene because to me that's a straight up power move! Like, "REEEE! he lets Ashley kiss another dude! Cuck MC!". And I watch that scene and think, "No. MC just lets the dudebro ex-boyfriend clean his cum out of her mouth." :WeSmart:

Llamamann if you are reading this please make a Melvin scene for every babe in the game. Let all those hater tears be the Olympus nectar Ambrosia, infusing you with longevity and immortality.
Literally the more interactions between in-game characters the better experience for the player.

... I agree.

I did really like the sharing scenes, but i have a complaint with this Steve scene: it is not really sharing, it is cheating.

Sharing is when the Mc accepts that someone else "play" with his girls, maybe he watch it maybe not but he knows what is happening, here the Mc goes away and the scene happens, maybe i am pretty meticulous but i was expecting to see the Mc watching what was happening in that scene.

Still, it was really Hot so never mind.
