With the weird facial features in most of the characters of this game, you can definitely say they are not approaching uncanny valley in the slightest.
As I've stated many times, most of the faces are stock from the DAZ store. So blame those artists, or maybe blame me for not having the same taste/vision as you. Lighting is also a big part of it which, hopefully, I'm getting better at. Expressions as well. I try to be much more conservative with expressions these days, barely touching the sliders. Most pre-made expressions that you find on the DAZ store or elsewhere look way over-the-top to many people. Or at least to the people who love to complain about DAZ.

Meg is one of the hottest daz3d characters in these type of games IMO. The only character I thought looked a little strange is the daughter, but even thats only in one or two scenes.

Yeah, this is a real problem with a lot of devs, very glad to see you're practicing restraint on that front. There's nothing worse than a really good model with hideous gargoyle facial expressions.

The key word that I'm highlighting there is "subtle" if you can't see due to my shitty giffing skills. You can imagine what the "unsubtle" ones look like dialed up.
Her smirk when father is trying to convince her that he's in charge and not mother is why she's my favourite.

Yeah i think Irredeemable's works are pretty mild and acceptable (though the wife kinda creeps me out because she reminds me of someone i know), and I'm saying that as a person with a relatively high aversion to realistic 3d human models.

What gets me excited about this projects is the execution and progression.

I also like the stats based mechanics of winning out H-scenes via different approaches.

Though In my suggestion it should be something more like this.

Affection - winning consensual sex opportunity via developing romantic relationship (romantic relationship)
eg: gift giving, romantic dates, saying the right romantic words at the right romantic time.
Current Meg route is a good example of this.

Lust/horny-ness - winning consensual/non-consensual sex opportunity via making the character more sexually
receptive/sexually aggressive (sex friend relationship).
eg: massage/groping, reverse voyeur, sexy dialogues, watching porn, aphrodisiacs, spotting a hard on.
Current daughter route is a good example.

Corruption - winning non-consensual sex opportunity via making the character submissive
eg: blackmail, rape/harassment, mind control drugs,
The use of mind control drugs, or that cheer leader character is a good example.

Interactions and dynamics between these parameters could lead to different development.

For example Corruption + Lust leads to mind break or sexual addicition

Is there walkthrough ? I don't want to repeat the same act, thinking there'll be new scene, but it's not.
Can someone give me the trigger points to each character ?
Taking example from The Twist, the dev gave us small warn when a path reach it's maximum state.

This is all I have (cheats included). When I feel like I'm done I extract the images, then see which scenes I missed, and finally search the extracted script to see where the images are used. You can use RPA extractor for extracting images and scripts, but you should be fine with the walkthrough and some patience.

From Walkthrough
"Every next Meg visit will give her +1 aff +2 rom. You’ll need rom. 70 for the next “trigger”."

Currently my meg stat is 27 aff - 53 rom
... so 8 days grinding click routine. Wake up, car, school, wait in class, Meg, garage, bedroom, sleep.
Just for 1 character ??? and more to go grinding ??? and I still not progressing other character yet.
Is this a game or punishment ?

The numbers certainly aren't finalized, but I think it's absurd to call out the Meg relationship progress as being a grind. You can get to 70 rom with her by basically just reading through all of her dialogues (or going the pill route). If that's not something you're interested in then maybe you should just watch a video. I hear you can find lots of those on the internet.

When Meghan & teacher talking about dead parent, it's the last conversation they had. In my play, the A & R are 15'ish & 25'ish. Since then, no more dialog but Megan come, auto A+1 & R+2. Looking to walkthrough, I have to repeat the same process till pts 70. That is grinding as no context until reach R+70.

Your the maker, you know HOW to play this game. Me just player. All I can do is to repeat the process till reach ??? pts and story moving on. Now, these happen to Sara. After election, I have to repeat the same dialog choice to progress, for I dunno how much point I should get. And it only add Affection, no romance point.

Including the "correct' choice when you find her being harassed in the hallway and all of the other "correct" choices it should not be a terrible grind to get to 70 rom with Meg even without using pills. If you're unsure of what the "correct" choices are you can always try one and the scroll wheel up to try again. I fully encourage people to "cheat" in this manner because it means they're reading more of what I wrote and so that time wasn't completely wasted.

I can take the grind, honestly. But 1 day, 1 interaction with 1 girl school mate, is outrageous. At least make it 2-3 school interaction period.

I write this comment while playing the game. Monday meet Ann, Tuesday meet Sara, Wed meet Meghan, Thur meet Kaytlin, Friday try walking the hall. Been like 2 hours no new trigger.

More events will be added to school that don't require your "time." (There is already one in 1.6), but the game isn't entirely focused on the school. You'll find many events that trigger at home during the week, and of course more are being added all of the time. If you feel the game isn't worth your time at the moment that is fine, I encourage you to check back later after more progress has been made.

I like the idea of giving some effort first in order to win a sex scene. It gives it some
substance that differentiate interactive adult games from watching porn.

Though long dialogs and empty activities could become very boring so there should some interspersed light "naughty" scenes that will help develop the progression and anticipation until the route reaches the climax. I think Teacher's Pet actually had this in mind by slowly and steadily unravelling H-scenes (Sarah drug route as an example).

What i don't like though is idea of irreversible choices, or choices that completely and totally penalized the player by removing any character interactions permanently. Current Meg route is something like this i believe (though the game is still not finished).

If one route was totally become off limits, for example, players should be given the opportunity to attack the character the other way to open a different route or until it reopen the route that became off limit . And i believe this game had that idea in mind using its different stats based progression.
