I'm generally a positive person but I feel the update needed just a tad more after such a long wait. I'm generally happy with it because I don't really sit around on pins and needles waiting for the next update. I can definitely see people being disappointed with it because it took 5-6 months to make though.

yeah got the same feeling, it was a good update but was expecting more

 

[j4yj4m]

The update was likely meant to be a ~3,5 months update instead of the ~5 months it almost took at the end. We got 0.19.0 at the end of october while 0.19.5. dropped mid december and was really fine for an ~7 week update. That means they then really started working on 0.20.0 after a chrisitmas break in late december/early january. After that I'm sure that DC getting his third child and being sick for a week, while having his older child at home all the time, Sploosh having some troubles with the dialogs, etc. caused some actual delays. Almost the same stuff that happened during Diane's 0.17.0 update. I'm not quite happy that they didn't communicate this a little more clearly and that we have to read between the lines, but at least I've got some hope that 0.20.5 won't last another 5 months.

The update itself was fine to me, though I'd agree that Tina is kind of an extra storywise for now. I'd really hope she'll get an actual role in 0.20.5. or else she's really just Ivy 2 and could have simply replaced her in one way or the other. On the other hand it's nice that we've got Becca's mum, which means we may even see Missy's sister, etc. too at some point. Alone for the dialogs I'd want to see her.

That would make sense that they didn't work full time yes

About Tina I would have prefered one more sex scene with Josephine instead of her, because i felt like banging her wasn't as satisfying as the others. With Maria it was justified, plus she was clearly teasing the MC. Same for Josephine, you made quests for her and her bitchy attitude made that banging her was actually rewarding and satisfying.
Tina sex scene happened too quickly, there should have been a slower build up leading to the scene imo.

That is very true. If every character also gets a mother with whom we can interact as well, that's something I'll support for sure. In those cases, they don't need a grand story or anything like that. I'll consider it a bonus. Not every character needs a full-blown storyline. Although I would like these mother (or sister!) characters to make more appearances with their daughters or even other characters then. That way they'd feel more like a part of the world instead of an isolated event.

I never expected Becca/Missy to actually get a family and given that Becca is my favourite girl in the game, it's a pleasant and very welcome surprise. But yeah, I don't really expect either of them to get anything more than a typical secondary character would get. Still, like this we'll get the option to visit Tina's/Becca's flat and thus the chance for a Becca solo scene at some point has certainly increased.

Good taste. More Becca content is very relevant to my interests as well...

^ Stop saving in the middle of something, only save in either MC's room (preferably morning after he wakes up and if whatever event pops up) or outside on the town map

I've tried saving on town map, but it did rollback some story lines again. I'll just wait and play it when it is complete

See you in 6+ years then

Was finally able to get through a few character paths. Despite having a few rough starts, I love this game. (Turns out the game really dislikes you saving during a quest. So only save at the start of a new day) I like the MC most of the time, which is rare. I do wish he was fleshed out a bit more though. He feels real and relatable most of the time, but there are some points where he is basically a raging erection with legs. I also found most of the characters to be pretty fun and interesting. Really like Eve, Debbie, Roxy, Becca,Terry, Grace, Tony, and Maria. The only characters that I outright disliked were Dexter and Annie for obvious reasons. Odette's character is also pretty obnoxious. Hope Dexter gets fleshed out and look forward to Annie's path. I love that the build up to most scenes does not require grinding or some cryptic hidden bullshit. (Fuck your 'click this invisible 10x10 pixel square for some stones' garbage. You know who you are.) I've seen a few people gripe about the art, especially during animated scenes, but I found it to be one of my favorite parts. Reminds me of Incase but with a slightly more water paint? look to it. Some of the more up to date animations are fantastic!

I do wish the music had a bit more variation to it. It gets repetitive pretty quick, especially the one for the school. I also wish there was a change to some of the mini games. Unless I missed something obvious, a few of them punish you and are almost guaranteed fails your first couple of tries.(That godforsaken basketball one...) Better save beforehand!

I can't wait to play more of it.

I just wanted to download the game when I was done, tired of having to start a new game every time a new update comes out

Cheat mode lets you skip dem mini-games, no more cringe. Aside the pizza related 1s though

Sure is butthurting having to click new game every 3-4 months to play a new route for ~1 hour and be done until the next update

I think DC mentioned some time ago that they bascially stopped working on all sounds for now and that they'd add and overhaul them once the game is closer to being finished. So something will happen, but probably not anytime soon... not sure whether that's good or bad news in this case.

brings new optional content, downloadable as additional archives (see first post in that thread). You need to upgrade the game and the optional content together.

Have fun!

 

[TrueZeus]

So are you saying you've clicked on her desk/podium/counter thing where she's sitting, and nothing happens? Can you go to any of the other three clicakble locations in dealership? (Garage on the ground floor, two offices upstairs) I forget if they are available on this first visit or if you have to have your first chat with Josie.

Sorry for the delay, when i click on others places the same dialog apears... i needed to restart the save and go to the dealership on another time to work. (sorry for the bad english)

What I would like to see in terms of development: Finish new content for all the ladies already in the game; finish the school year and do prom and all that; hire Father Keeves to go all John Wick on the Russians; done and done. Then every month or so, do rolling DLC releases with 1 or maybe 2 new h-scenes for an existing character.

IMO there are a few too many fuckable characters available, and consequently not enough variation in how MC interacts with each of them. (That sounds like a weird critique, I know) Diane and Jenny have a good number of scenes, but I still think it would be nice if you could do things like go to the beach with Diane, or insist on 'purifying' Helen at Raven Hill, or invite Eve over to your beach house for a romp, or have Roxxy show up at your place in a SUPER horny condition, etc. Just introduce some new elements to the existing characters.

I know DC wants to eventually move off this game and work on something else, so I realize likely the only way that sort of ongoing additions to the game will happen is via mods and such.

 

[Omnikuken]

^ Since every girl ever will get preg eventually and most of them already having scenes in game can't, there's a few years of content purely to add stuff to existing routes. Your wetdream will happen, someday
