I like the game I really do, but most of these events being random is killing me. If things were a bit clearer on how to progress with invidiual characters it would be tolerable but it isn't. I'm trying to finish things with Alexa cause I'm pretty sure she's the last thing I need to be caught up in the game, but who even knows cause you can't even really be sure if you've done everything.
To figure out what to do with the boyfriend stuff for Alexa I had to come to the forum to figue out guess what it's a random event argument bewtween the sisters. So I have to get this random event and nothing of an in game month of just school, suburbs, upstairs and still nothing. So I think that maybe I have to increase sexual tension but the only thing left where we aren't too depraved or it's drained is cuddling where you have to wait for the random event of Alexa coming to sleep in your room and then the random event in the random event where she coudles you.
It's too much. Honestly.
I agree that the combination of lack of clues about how to trigger events + random chance to do it even in the right condition is one of the greatest problems of this game. People has posted many times about it, I really hope the dev could read this thread and find a solution.
I know from previous posts that he doesn't want a deterministic path, so some events can be skipped altogether without even realizing since they will not appear on the phone until unlocked (and again, a LIST of events to check would at least make the player aware of that). I am trying to make positive criticism here, in my opinion people who like this game want
-fap to scenes (that means they should not be too hard to trigger)
-see all scenes in the game (especially if they are completitionists like me; again, discovering just by chance that you totally missed a scene only because someone posted about it while the game gives you no clue whatsoever can be terribly frustrating)
-both of the above
So my suggestions to reduce negative reactions from players would be:
- Increase random chances for events to trigger
- Make the list of events on the phone visible and complete even if events are not triggered yet, so people can check what they are missing (imho the loss of surprise about new scenes is much less worse than the frustration for not finding them); and maybe be more clear about how do them
- Having every update "new scene for Lisa" and then spending hours trying to trigger it is really a pain in the ass, so the last suggestion is
describe the same scenes in the changelogs, even in broad strokes, so players can immediately concentrate on finding them! If that was done from the beginning, people by now would not ask for a walkthrough anymore, because they would practically have it in the OP.
