There is also a romance tag in the game - romance doesn't go well with a protagonist that lets anyone and everyone suck his dick in any situation. When scenes like this happen the game can't be viewed as anything more than a fap simulator, story goes out the window.
Thank you for your opinion. As you can see, this part in the story line happens way before the actual romance. MC is not a fuckboy, his only interaction was with Liz till this point.

If Sophia hates the MC, why is she letting him live with her? Something doesn't add up.
I know right? That was a WTF? for me as well. If I hated someone I'd delight in watching them starve to death or die of exposure on a park bench in winter, not let them live with me while feeding them at my expense and being stuck seeing their ugly face every day.

No but.. Look, I got a bit hot-headed in my first reply because I am passionate about these things, the last thing I want to do is put you down, I want to provide productive feedback. Here's the thing - if a person you just met asks to suck your dick and you go ''HELL YEAH!!!'' you are not just a fuckboy, you are a very desperate man with very low self-esteem that also doesn't take relationships seriously. It is ok to roleplay such an MC, but if you give the player any choice, you need to give this choice. If you gave MC the choice to just say ''no'' and the blowjob wouldn't happen, would that somehow destroy the rest of your plot? Is that blowjob super plot crucial? Because if not, it is an extremely easy thing to fix that goes a long way.

It is ok to have games in which you have mindless sex and plot is not the focus, sometimes I am in a mood for that kind of games, but an MC that fucks anything that moves straight away, has no place in a game that features romance. When things like this happen I mentally move the game into a different category and just hold down the control button until the next sex scene because the plot becomes irrelevant and romance has no place in that game anymore.

And that is absolutely fine, but ask yourself if you were a woman if you would want a serious relationship with a dude who gets his dick out on demand for any hot girl. That behaviour is incompatible with romance.

I have to agree with the choice critics. Either give real choices like "yes" and "no" or no choice at all. Giving the player the choices "yes" and "hell yes" is as bad as giving single choices or "yes" and "game over". Why? Because it bothers the player to click on something that achives nothing other than pulling him/her/whatever out of the story. And in addition it's stretching the development, maybe not by much per choice, but that can sum up quite easily if it happens a few times (e.g. per fake choice 5sec of additional dev time, 30 of these fake choices altogether and we reach 150sec, which are already 2.5 minutes. Many games have more choices than 30. This was just an example and is not representive for this game). If you want the player to follow a specific direction in a scene, then guide him through by just telling your story. Yes, some will cry about the lack of choices and call it then kinetic, but fake choices are also kinetic with the property to click with the mouse on it.

I agree she should offer the pussy instead of a bj.

Don't worry I'm not offended at all. :) Even I am more critical when it comes to other games, so I don't really mind.

Reading your thoughts, I only can say two things:
1. you do you, it's your product and you should always develope it in a way that you thinks is the right way. In the end you need to be happy about how it turned out. People will like it or not. And as far as I can read it there, that's luckily exactly the way you do it. This is the most important part!
And 2. your attitude towards us players, who give you feedback, be it critical or not, is remarkable. I wish other devs would take an example of this. Fair critic should always serve as a tool to improve and not to demotivate. And devs should always try to use this tool, as long as it doesn't interferes with the way the game is planned. And yeah, I know, some people are harsh, some critic sounds harsh, but try to stay above that.

Hope to see more refined (and bigger) updates in the future. YOur game does have potential, IMO. Even if I criticized the choices in my last post.

This is just so rude. Not only do you not give the player a choice but you also mock them about it: ''Look! You don't get a choice! Eat shit!''

You have to understand that when you offer choices in the first place, what kind of sexual content the player gets is THE most important and meaningful choice, if such choice is not offered there is no point in giving ANY choice what so ever ( which ironically you didn't in this particular scene, but you offered the player other choices which only worsen the situation ), and I would have ZERO problems with any of this, if I was not offered any choice and it was just a read-through.

There is also a romance tag in the game - romance doesn't go well with a protagonist that lets anyone and everyone suck his dick in any situation. When scenes like this happen the game can't be viewed as anything more than a fap simulator, story goes out the window.

Nothing wrong with criticizing what you don't like, BUT not everything happening in the game is up to what you want.
You see this as the dev mocking the players, sorry, but that is a ridiculous approach.
The point here isn't making fun of you, nor taking away your choices, the point is that the MC is the type of guy who might just let a good-looking girl give him a blowjob.

There aren't really many games that offer as much choice as you seem to expect. Even if devs wanted to, it makes the production of the game exponentially more difficult, so more often than not, most choices will only lead to cosmetic changes or a scene playing out slightly different, and the choices which really affect things will be far more rare.

Your interpretation of what is happening is also very limited. For one, like I pointed out, what you see as mocking players and taking away their agenda, is simply a fun way of showing the kind of person the MC is AT THIS MOMENT. Any good dev wants to tell a story, and we are this early in the development of this game, that some things might just need to happen, to set up the rest of the story.

As for the romance tag, your interpretation postulates that nothing about the MC will change during the game, and it also doesn't take into account that even out of a casual sexual encounter more can always grow. Dismissing something like that does also not seem quite romantic to me.

There is a line between criticism and acting entitled, as if you are the one to decide how the dev makes his game, which clearly, you are not, IMO your comment leans a bit too far on the entitled side.

Thank you, these words honestly mean a lot. :)

I gotta agree with CamaroFan, many devs, seeing as their projects are important to them, react way too hotheaded and emotional to criticism, often not just to rude and emotional attacks, but simply to any form of criticism.
This way they lose an important tool, player's feedback. Of course, it's your game, your story, but sometimes things slip past a dev, and even if something is a personal work, critics might have valid points.
More often than not, I find devs who can't deal with criticism, also never really improve. They start a project at one level and continue without getting better, instead of growing with their work, they lose themselves in an echo chamber telling them everything is great and completely ignore the parts of their game which just don't work.

But as I pointed out in my previous comment, there's also a point where criticism goes too far and veers into trying to force the dev to change their game to what you as the player want, and that is also not helpful.
We have a right to give our opinions, BUT we can't demand every game being modelled after what we like and want.
Yet even then, how a dev deals with this type of comments shows a lot about them.

That's why I asked whether skipping the blowjob would destroy the rest of the plot. Because if not, it's not that hard to skip.

good lord the mom is shitty.
like idc how old my kids get if they have no where to stay they always have a second home regardless.
idc if they are 40 with 5 kids.
She didn't even want him to stay with her till he got back on his fett LMAO! COLD.

also why live with someone you hate? Trying to see why the mom even want her son to live with someone who use to bully them or whatever.

Also with the choices. what is the point in putting choices when regardless you really have no choice? At the point just don't put it then.

Choices imo is one of the most important thing that comes to these games, giving player options.

So I hope the dev take this into consideration.

The game has promise and the mc seems ok I guess. I also don't see why he even apolygized at the end of the update. she was the rude one regardless of her problems LOL.

but I guess he could have just ignored her to instead of also adding to the fire so I guess.

Also kinda disappointed with the short update...

but aye so far game has promise.
