Precisely. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Who has the stamina to stick it out?

According to the plan, there's only two more side stories (The other things are more else-world stories)

4. not all want it
5. it make a game bigger
If you want music in the background, open up spotify/itunes/apple music/youtube and put on some beats while you play. I don't see the need for AVN devs to even feel the need to put in music in the games since it takes more time to do so when it's unnecessary lol

Agreed. First thing I do in any game, as soon as the main menu has loaded, is go into preferences/settings and turn the music off/volume all the way down. I will keep in-game sounds on (usually at about half volume), but music is the first thing to go.
According to this post, how many updates will it take before content about Abby comes out?

probably a few more before any proper abby content,
also isn't the next update a split update? i remember there were talks about splitting the update into two 1 for each vacation option.
or did that fall trough and were getting a proper update?

I don't think it's the next one that the splitting starts, but he is starting to cover more than just a day or two in the next update, so when the vacation hits might be sooner than we thought and that's when the full update split will probably happen (I think he said he'll finish one vacation in an update or few, then the next similar rounds of updates would be the other vacation, but I can't find the post right now to verify that).

To say something in favor of music: if well done, it can support the story and mood very well, improving the experience, at least for me. In any game (not only AVNs) I usually stick to the default music if it at least halfway makes sense and fits the scene. My "own" songs I can listen to at any time anyways.
However, if you just give me the same song on a loop or even a selection of songs which will just play regardless of the scene and situation, that is indeed useless. And I will agree that I also don't need music for these games. But, as I said, if well done it can really improve the experience.
(First things I do when playing a RenPy game is activating fullscreen and instant text speed)

Well, I guess this would have lost the dev other players. Me for example. A "get the girl at the first opportunity" isn't everybody's cup of tea. But yeah, if you're looking for that then this game is not for you. But don't fret, other devs have pretty daughters, too.

Hahaha, well it would for sure have made for a different game.
Though to be honest with Frank as he is I could have seen a game over if had woken up next morning with Abby deepthroating him and he in panic runs out of the house at that stage of proceedings. Might have been a more fun game over and better fitting the story in the end as well.
