To me this was an underwhelming update compared to the very high quality we usually get. The MC was captured again and did not learn from past mistakes which is boring (no progress). Jake was whining and plain out annoying so I just skipped the dialogue. The scenes were good but the last update had way hotter scenes and in that way failed my expectations.
You are not wrong, however MC being downed or captured once in a long while is not the main concern in itself as long as he don't lose his shit in that particular situation and deal with the asswipes responsible accordingly, meaning ruthlessly but that ultimately depends on the dev. and the choices they provide which unfortunately are very rare, if any.
I would absolutely like to play as an OP and perfect MC but we all know how often we get those, as for Jake i don't care at all for the buddy system in the porn games because more often than not they just add unnecessary drama and annoyance.
As i did not played this update yet so i can't really comment on the content's quantity or quality but as long as choices are present to engage and/or to avoid any and all sinful activities, i am good.
