^ Case in point : Judith. Was there on day 1, every1 cries she has no scenes, nobody votes for her, DC doesn't do anything till she wins. She has like 5+ fetishes just on her most girls don't/won't have, so "broader audience" doesn't know what it wants nor is DC catering to every fetish known to man just to tick his check-list to please every1 and their mom (yet)

I mean, it's not wrong that the schoolgirls are meant to have a different appeal and to cater to a certain audience. Each among Roxxy, Eve, Rhonda, Annie, Mia and Judith does bring something new to the table, while Diane/Debbie and Jenny are primarily meant to please the incest crowd.

And sure, the problem with Judith is simply that she's obviously the least popular among them. Annie, Rhonda and Eve didn't have (and still don't have) real content either before they got their update. It's just the way DC works.

3101 posts in F95. Three thousands and one posts in which you thoroughly explain why DC is a great dude and why SS is a flawless work of art.

You're a - w - e - s - o - m - e, pal. (y)(y)

Hm? Reading doesn't seem to be your strength.

I didn't value anything. All I said is that Judith isn't treated any differently compared to others.
You either are madly obsessed with SS and you really really really really need psychiatric help, or you're a member of DC's team and he pays you quite a few bucks.

That's what I honestly think.

Same with the other infamous pal (everyone knows who I'm talking about).

You may think what ever you like, of course. Excluding these two posts answering to you I wrote 13 replies here in the last week. If you want to call ~2 posts on average a day on this forum obsessive, that's really up to you. I'd agree it amounts to quite a bit of time, but then again, it's a hobby and it's ok to spend a bit of time a day. I mean, it's not like your average here is that much different and at least I'm not spending my time on hating on people.

Basically zero. Next weekend is possible.
Allready? Yay. :)
Even Google-translate doesn't butcher Engrish that bad, it's a new record
Any idea what he is talking about? I mean with engrish i usually have a fair idea, but this. Tbh i am not even sure if he is now on the pro or on the contra side.

Btw i do wonder, why is it that i never read some of the post one can read here about milking in the topics of games that actually milk people aka a year old, but still no real scenes, with reall porn pics so no real work there, shit-tone of grinding, patreon exclusive "content" and all the time the same lazy excuses why there isnt any content. Compared with one of those, this here looks more like a charity. :LOL:

Dunno whether this is the right place to put it, but in the scene when you go to the mall with Jenny and meet Grace, even in the patched version you introduce her as your "roommate".

Hours ? Takes about 15 mins to go from nothing to 0.20's content, even if you don't skip text
Could you please explain how you're doing this in practice?

I haven't played SS since 0.18.5 (1+ year ago) and I'm thinking about maybe trying 0.20.5 but then I hear 0.20.5 wil just be part 1 of what 0.20.5 was initially supposed to deliver so a 2nd part (0.20.8?) will likely come 4 months from now to wrap up the main story. My problem is I do NOT want to replay SS from the start. I did that for 0.18.5 and it was a gigantic waste of my time that took 8+ hours just to sit through content I already knew from my play-through of 0.16.1 from 2 years ago.

I can't fathom how you could skip through hours of game-play in 15 minutes especially since holding down CTRL to FF through dialogues you've already seen before doesn't work in SS due to the galactic genius that is DC.

The game isn't linear after all. All you'll have to replay is the intro/tutorial which is the story that happens in the first day. After that you simply play the new content and you ignore the old stuff. None of the last updates required any old content and the smaller ones, which built on old content, were usually compatible (like 0.19 to 19.5 for example).

There was for example basically zero need to replay 0.16. Roxxy or any other content for Jenny's 0.18/0.18.5. You basically did that for your own pleasure.

You're saying the routes listed here are 100% disconnected and you can choose to play just the newest route?

Yes, the vast majority of them. The only ones which actually require somewhat larger amounts of old content are Diane/Debbie who need each other's story for the threesome and the optional monster girls, who require small elements of several other stories at times.

Everything else should be playable "from day one". At times there are some very minor dialog changes depending on whether you've played content or not, but in these cases you'd miss one version anyway and they are more or less meaningless for the game at the moment.

More connections may come later once the game is more or less done, but for now and for the foreseeable future it's gonig to stay like this.

I vaguely remember there were at least some dependencies between routes (like you couldn't get a bike if you didn't have enough progress with Aunt's garden) at least in the beginning. Ironically, my second major problem with SS (the first was that perversions are vanilla and DC bent for Patreon) is just how disjointed it feels when you play all routes simultaneously like I did. A LOT happens everywhere in the world but everything feels deeply artificial in the sense that nothing you do on one route has any interesting influence on another despite golden opportunities at every step.

MEGA-ironically, DC's whole argument for dragging everyone through the misery of eternally broken saves was precisely that he wants the freedom to change routes with every new major version, presumably to tweak route-inter-dependencies as new routes are added.

I think saves will again be broken with 0.20.5 and then again with 0.20.8? just because "I got my money so fuck'em" so I'm really reluctant to spend time with this vanilla porn fest.

I mean, it's a very valid point but it should be a somewhat temporary issue. As long as the game is in development and as long as new stories are coming in and old stories may change again in details due to reworks, it's a lot of work to reconnect and reblance things again and again. I'm pretty sure the game will feel better in that regard once it is more or less completed.

Hm, I don't think he said that in that way. Major interdepencies have always been off the table util the very end, but the point was more that updates often change stuff in all kinds of stories (like characters appearing in new, different locations at certain times of the day, the rig system gets new art, etc.) which until recently seems to be something the save system couldn't deal with properly so you'd get bugs everywhere and errors.

I think saves will again be broken with 0.20.5 and then again with 0.20.8? just because "I got my money so fuck'em" so I'm really reluctant to spend time with this vanilla porn fest.
We'll see. Saves did work from 0.19 to 0.19.5 and even to 0.20.0 in principle, but it's certainly not optimal the way it is. Given that 0.20.5 will be a direct continuation of 0.20 they should make them work.

Else it's worth mentioning that there's almost always a fitting savegame on their website, which has everything completed but the new content.

I was quite disappointed that for the longest time they didn't at least provide official resume-saves (like Noell does with Adventures of Willy D) but then I noticed they were provided except I only saw them starting with 0.20.1 (the very latest version).

It would be decent for them to provide resume-saves with every new major version but... since AFAIK they didn't explicitly commit to that kind of support you never know what the deep DC genius decides to be normal.

This is a straight up lie because they provide a save with every thing completed after each update

Really? Could you please provide a link to or where they (as in the game developers) provided saves where you could start playing 0.19.5 or 0.19.0?

Mind you I'm 100% willing to be proven wrong.

That's 1 for 0.18.6. There's also 1 on the main page every release but they update it so the 0.19 and before gets removed (thank RNGesus for that since most people would just fuck themselves by using older saves in newer builds)

Well... I was wrong when it comes to 0.18.5, I wish I noticed that official save.

The first time I noticed an official resume saves was for 0.20.1 and I'm pretty sure there was none provided with 0.20.0. I'm not so sure about 0.19.x after your example for 0.18.5, though.
