Some thoughts.

.14 is a bit hit-and-miss for me. I loved the content, and the story progression is pretty good and believable (in the context of the game). But there just wasn't much there there. Regarding the H scenes, the animations are fantastic (especially the Helen scenes) -- the bar has been set, and imo at some stage all existing H scenes have to be re-done to match the level of .14 , and anything less than this level going forward for new content will be a let down.

I will be highly disappointed if at some point in a future update you cannot join Sister Angelica in her 'purification' of Helen, if you are on that path. Frankly, it's kind of bummy that you can't do that now. Feels half-hearted.

Speaking of half-hearted.... the Mia H scenes are......... anti-climactic. She's getting stuffed by King Kong and never once so much as looks around? Puts her head down? Responds in any visual way? Never puts her hands on her butt to help open herself up? Her scene feel perfunctory, not at all like two hornball tees ripping it up in the sack.

There are some really annoying glitches and continuity gaffes in this update. They've been discussed before, but in the interest of piling on, I'll restate. Multiple instances of seeing Harold in the bedroom through the telescope after he's moved out. Sneaking into Mia's house after you've been openly invited to sleepover and more or less given the bone-our-daughter green light. When I first got to Mrs Johnson's bedroom to discuss how to move forward with Erik, no background art loaded; it was just MC and Mrs J and against a black screen. (This didn't happen in .13) When I talked to Harold about the missing night thief goods, I had to go downstairs and talk to Erik's dad again, and visit the park again, and come back to the police station before the dialog option to show him the bag appeared, despite having already unlocked that through the Erik story progression.

There are three paths along the Erik story, and now two with Mia..... so that's six possible unique game saves, right?

If you chose the Helen route and break up their marriage, does that close off any chance MC might have at making sexy time with Yumi? Cos I don't want to close off any chance of making sexy time with Yumi.




And something that's bugged me since the first version of this game I played..... how is it physically possible for MC to see into Mia's and Harold & Helen's bedrooms from his house? The Johnson house is in between. Also, the external rendering of MC's house is backwards from the internal layout. Inside, the living room is to the left of the stairs and front door, but outside it's to the right.

So long as the dating adds actual worthwhile content, ie sexy stuff, and isn't just jumping through hoops then I'm good. The game is gated enough as it is, which tbf isn't just a problem with SS, as life-sim is very popular for porn games and it becomes grindy as fuck. I mean seriously, far too much of the game is "buy this for me", which is why the mom path, while not my favorite, is the least annoying because you have to buy, what like 2 cheap items in the whole run? Everything else is a money sink, with Eric story being the absolute worst. I'm sorry, we're bros and all but why am I buying YOU sex toys, VR headsets, magic cards, and everything else? It honestly made me hate that character, when he went from your nerdy awkward friend to a simp and a leech.

This, most of it is "Buy me expensive stuff", i could excuse the sis being a money crazed sex addict wanting this, but not Eric.
I didn't like much the threesome option with Eric, i would have preferred if you could take both his mom and the girl while leaving him the VR "Orc girl". Why we should feel bad about taking his mom away when 99% of time he doesn't deserve it and he's a leech asking for costant gifts?

So you can steal his GF, of course.

And leave his mom to him? hell no! Also June should be a "bonus" while his mom should be the "main course" unfortunately you don't get to do much with Mrs Johnson

Are you talking about the footjob? Or is there an actual sex scene with her I missed? I'm trying to remember all the telescope scenes too.

Originally it was only FJ for some reason, probably a patreon request that had FJ fetish, i didn't like that scene much until 12.5 when you could jump on her and nail her on the couch


I remember when the burglar was seen i expected a whole arc dedicated to the guy, i even expected the burglar to be Mrs Johnson (and made sense) but it was changed to be Eric's dad for some other reason.
It was dissapointing seeing the burglar end up so quickly

Yeah, I know some found it hot, and in the right context it could be, but as it stands it's kinda like you're fucking a doll. There is also very little to no acknowledgement that you're y'know taking her virginity. It's just so blah in that regard. The whole scene really needs to get fixed. And it needs a flip her over option at least.

Yeah, the entire game is bugging out for me, I think I may be screwed in trying the Eric route again, because I was asked to help with Yoga, before any of the other Yoga stuff came up. The nearly entire Mia route played out wrong, and it's just all really, really buggy.

Another rip in SS space-time: Once you're established on the Mia path (meaning Harold and Helen have reunited), the conversations with her at school are still indicating problems at home.

Re the Mia scene: That's starting to bug me more and more as I think about it. The ho-hum sex while she studies should be an option after like five or six fuck sessions. "Hey, I'm glad you came over MC. But I have to study." "But Meeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa, I have a huge dick and I want to put it in you!" "Oh, okay, you'll just have to do all the work while I study." Something like that.

And why are there no new oral sex options??????? Blowies are awesome, and every female character should have at least one in their H scenes. As it is, it's Mom, Mrs Johnson (not to completion), Cassie, and Ivy. Three of those have been around for months, one came in the .13 update.

DC needs to go through and add anal options for all the partners, too. I mean, honestly.

if anyone else has the crash at car dealership, i had it too, its the ikarumods issue, take it out, pass the event at the car dealership, then put the mod back in(if you want, that is), if you cant find the mod files, just unzip the game in another folder, copy paste the saves on the game folder, pass the event and then either copy paste the saves again on the original or run the mod in the new. i got confused myself by my post, so sorry if i dont make any sense..
