Have said it over and over again... you don't gain anything complaining here, while there's people willingly throwing their money at them on Patreon, the project will keep going, even at the snails pace as is being developed as right now.

If there were someone (individual or a group) who have had bought the rights of the game, this individual or group could came out and put pressure on the dev team, to speed up the process or close shop, however life is never that simple or easy.

At this point in time, I just have a bare minimal hope for the next update, because so far, all that I've seen is just illusions, smoke and mirrors, broken promises and a litany of never-ending delays and excuses to drag out the next update.

Common reasons for complaining:
  1. Venting: Complaining can be a way for people to vent their emotions and release frustration. By expressing their negative feelings, they may feel a temporary sense of relief.
  2. Attention-seeking: Complaining can also be a way for people to seek attention and sympathy from others. When people complain, they may receive sympathy and validation from others, which can make them feel better.
  3. Control: Complaining can also give people a sense of control over their situation. By expressing their dissatisfaction, they may feel like they are taking action and trying to improve the situation.
  4. Social bonding: Complaining can also be a way for people to bond with others over shared grievances. By complaining together, people may feel a sense of camaraderie and shared experience.
None of these actually make a change, and therefore i agree with you. It is however hard to ignore the fact, that some people just enjoy complaining and no logical reasoning can make people stop. So complaining about complaining is in the end a endless useless circle of negative emotion, and only the individual can decide for themselves which side is the largest waste of time

If you're not gaining enjoyment from a new update, create your own enjoyment alongside others about the lack of update. The longer the wait the better the high. Some of us still occasionally dance around Ecchi Sensei's corpse. Long after the ardent defenders fled.

Can you guys explain why you like this game so much? The beginning is terribly boring.

When does the game start getting good? In other words, how long do I have to push on before I get to the "great content", that makes this game so popular?

I'll agree with you with that one. When the game start getting good? I think when you can go free roam, and do whoever route you pleases. In terms of content, there's a lot in this game. And it's up to you to choose. I think, the Parlor girls route (Eve, Grace, Odette), the Main Route, and Roxxy route is some of the best route in the game.

But, if i were you, i just wait a couple months and play the updated version of the whole game. They kinda remaking the whole shit right now.

Based upon your history of posts in other threads that I'm aware of, I don't think you'll like this game and you won't be able to communicate with the developer in the thread because he doesn't interact here (well, like a dozen messages in the 7 years the game has been listed on this site, last being 2 years ago).

WHAT!?! $60,000 A MONTH?!?! WHAT INDIVIDUAL PAYS $60,000 EVERY MONTH FOR THIS???
Now if it's a pool of people each putting in the price of one cup of coffee every month that totaled $60,000...

No no, you're right. It is most definitely from a very large pool
of people. Just click on their Patreon link on the first page. You
can also find their patreon history somewhere....

I wasn't trying to knock the game. I like the game a lot. Seems like
there should be tons more play time and content updates from a
7yr old game.

I do really like that it's basically a simple game. Not full of flashy graphics
or animations that I generally don't like and slow down the game. Just an
interesting/fun story with images, mainly.

Cheers.

I mean, I'll knock the game where it needs to be knocked -- same with dark cookie. But this is one of the largest adult games with the most content (over 150 scenes in the cookie jar gallery) that you can find with many hours of playing content (if you aren't just skipping dialogues/scenes to get to the lewds). Particularly on F95.

I'd say like others, it's mostly once the "open world" unlocks, though there's a frustrating amount of pointless money grinding you have to do. My advice would be to focus on the pizza delivery job, grind to get a basic car, and grind a bit more for cash. At that point you should have enough to put it in the bank and earn interest on it which will fund most of what you'll need to complete a lot of girls' routes. Don't worry about the school routes with the teachers, there's not actually any limit to how many days the school year takes so you can ignore the class storylines as long as you need to (this is helpful since ofc every time there's a weekend you can't go to class so those storylines keep getting put on pause). Try not to carry much cash personally on you bc there's an in-game feature that penalizes this (not trying to spoil what it is). The only thing worse than dumb cash grinding mechanics gating features behind busywork in games, is having the cash you laboriously grinded to get stolen from you. :/

Later on there's a bunch of weird plot involving the main story and some political figures who are obvious parodies of real world figures... sadly DC is way better at porn than he is at political satire so some of that gets pretty cringey. Most of the stuff beyond that point is pretty blah so it's fine to just focus on the routes for each of the girls at school and the tattoo parlor, and if you call it quits there you're not missing much.
