A few weeks ago Lewdpatcher website was down iirc. I guess it is just an alternative source to download the patch. Content should be the same.

Have I?
Don't recall honestly.I definitely understand how you've ended on this structure. Not easy to maintain the "modularity" of the girls. Yet I don't see how it would change the nature of the game / story if the events were stringed together – as it is we're only choosing what to see next, but it doesn't feel organic.
What about dividing the events by day? For example – day 1 we arrive at the beach planet. Thim shows us around and afterwards we leave him there and see the sisters chilling by the pool. From there we can decide if we want to go see Vess or someone else. Then day 2 begins with a choice of a morning event (the one not chosen will be on the third day) and so forth.
What I would possibly get from this is A) Time would be moving forward more coherently B) small "connective" elements would make it a deeper experience.
I am very happily still supporting the game. The overall story is great, but just noticed some weariness due to the structure this time.
In a certain sense this type of structure is inevitable because branching narrative needs to return to a common point in order to avoid exponential story branch growth.
An alternative might be to have a chain of choices e.g. Talk to A or B, followed by Talk to C or D. This could reduce the "check list" feeling when players have 5-6 choices, however unless there is an effort toward making this type of chain meaningful (e.g. Eva becomes jealous if you talk to Lilly first) then this is just a different presentation of the same elements.

What about: talk to A or B, A leads to C, B to D. Afterwards we get a choice of "evening" events which (possibly) lead to waking up with the person chosen. The consequences wouldn't even need to be super meaningful, just some carry-over from the previous event if possible. For example the MC could be plastered in the next event after raiding the wine cellar with Thim – this is not possible if everything is separate.
I get what you're saying. The choices can be more evenly dosed of course. Sisterly Lust had a very strict day system and I ended up hating it, as it didn't give much freedom in terms of narrative. That said, I could group those choices using a more loose sense of day and night (sunbathing obviously is a daytime activity, drinking with Thim and going out happen in the night).Have I?

Trouble with a lot of those events is that they're optional. The event with Thim didn't happen for quite a few players, so having the MC hungover in a subsequent event would be an option as well, leading to a lot more extra writing and rendering. But there might be a balance that can be struck, I'll keep it in mind for the next episodes.

Of course – you need to be happy yourself. It's great for creativity to switch things up and important to drop things that aren't working. I think everyone will be happy about the end result if you can maintain your passion for the game – maybe sometimes changing things will help in this in the long run?
It's just so great you're so active here too. I love theorising about game/story structures and thinking what if scenarios.

Fucking awesome game. Top notch references and choice of music. Gorgeous models. Though I must say Nadya's confession was rather predictable. Making things ever more exciting nevertheless. Looking forward to the season finale.

I didn't see it coming... but glad it did. She has been one of my favorites since I first saw her.
