Sigh, this is like watching the first 10 minutes of Saving Private Ryan and walking out because it is a hopeless shitfest for Tom Hanks.

It's not though, because people saw trailers and film runtime, and had context of a WW2 story so they already understood a bit where where things were going. All we have here is the story we're presented with as it's released.

Since MC has an arc to do where he becomes self actual Ex, having him be decisive this early cuts into that arc growth. A decision next release is more realistic given what has come before. Unless you are saying he has already been a very decisive person and we are waffling back on his decisiveness.

Hm, question: Did we get the Patreon version this time? I checked the options and the Incest on / off has vanished.

True but the problem is that is months or years away and not resolved in a week. Lot of that kind of drama is a lot less impactful if you can resolve it next week or in one play through, unfortunately that is not a possibility in game development, so situations drag on for over a year in real time and become way more annoying cause of that. Like it will take a long time before the Brody situation will be resolved and he either had a change of heart or will be found out to be the asshat that he is based upon beginning of game

When you get out of law school, you have a shitload of debt. Usually you can’t even afford a mortgage until several years later. Later the pay gets good, but those first years are tough. Luckily I went into the Air Force shortly after law school and was able to defer my law school loans.

Give Brodie some love. Out of all the villains out there in f95zone land, he is fairly decent. As far as villains go.True but the problem is that is months or years away and not resolved in a week.

Brodie is waiting for his own game, he's the flip-side stereo-typical MC in many games here. The weak willed son waiting to come out of daddies shadow and take over the company with a harem of capable women.
Honestly, at this point I don't even consider him a villain, he's a non-thinking extension of his father's will. Which is what's getting him in trouble with his girlfriend.

Are you from USA right? because, if yes, the debt for going into an high level school is really ridiculous.
Anyway, finished your update and the game is really cool, hope it keep up until the end.

True, but he is still a villain and somehow when I play a game with family members I hate them hanging around villains. They do not have to be mine per se, but I do want a really decent option for them and not an asshat. Knowing he will be around for a year or longer is more of a turnoff to me personally as exciting.
Then again that is just on me and an important reason I will wait with fully playing the game until he is out of the picture or had a change of heart so I can go through all that drama in one go and it bothers me way less.

Thanks. Was not. And I’ve been here for years and never drew the connection. Im like that guy from the Mr Obvious Show.
And that right there is the issue. In a tabletop RPG, you are your character. You decide your characteristics and react based on how you want them to. In a VN you are playing a predefined character. You are allowed to name your character but everything else is already cemented as the character. So, while you personally disagree with a character's choices (and you are most certainly free too), the character will behave in accordance to who he is defined as. You may have ended your relationship in this scenario, but that is not what the defined MC would have done.
If what you are trying to say is the case than this would be a kinetic novel and the player would have zero choices including the option to name the MC.
