Okay, so because of a planned plot line we can’t break up with Nicole? We have to wait until some future plot point (most likely dramatic and cliche as these things usually are) before the MC is able to tell her to fuck off... I honestly don’t care if I miss out on story or content I still want to be able to tell her that the relationship is done.
If she’s in a long distance relationship for less then a month and already proposing that they be in an Open Relationship then she’s moved on. The MC and player should be able to move on from her if they so choose.
Honestly this update killed a lot of my interest in the game with that revelation. I didn’t hate Nicole as much as others do, rather I disliked the fact that the most realistic option, to call it quits, wasn’t given to the players when it makes the most sense. Instead the players must either accept that the girlfriend essentially lined up someone she wanted to fuck and then proposed an option that allowed her to do so without guilt or the player has to decline and close off any chance of the MC fucking any of the women he is now around without being a cheating asshole.
Neither are options that I’m interested in exploring right now.
Once again:
We heared the complaints - it's in discussion.
There are more than good chances to correct that "mistake", by not having a chance to break up right now, at least in next update.
This will be decided (and announced) as soon as possible - probably tomorrow.
Even this is not a final statement right now, as MrDots has not decided finally as he went to bed. He will decide tomorrow.
So please stay patient.
As i said several times before: WE HEARED ALL YOUR VOICES (and even support you)
The need to have an open relationship for a good reason (a certain path) is no "blocker" to break up for another path.
So a breakup should be in there - right now. As this update is done, it can be right in the next update. We also already have some kind of story setup for that... only the very last "go" from MrDots is missing.
EDIT:
And before you, or someone else, starts to complain about waiting 2 months to break up -> just remember that it's just 1-2 ingame days (1 update = 1 week, the "open relation offer" was right before the last day of this update - so Friday ).
Just saying this right in advance, as i know people crying "I waited 6 months to be able to finally break up" (yes, but ingame MC waited just 1 week after he left his GF while saying "i love you" - always keep that in mind)
