good to see that dev took the (not always very constructive) criticism to heart and fixed the mess that was the episode 1 prologue content vs. description discrepancy

+ wide range of different looking models (would appreaciate a chubby/BBW LI, any plans for that?)
+ solid quality renders
+ lots of different fetishes planned, apparently (maybe put planned fetishes in the Genre spoiler)
+ everything seems to be avoidable if you don't like it (and i mean avoidable, not skippable)
+ Synne

Yeah... me too... ntr sucks canines for coppers! If there's an option and the game is worth replaying... I usually see all options just out of curiosity but I prefer true harem settings. There are many titles that allow free range harem honey hunting through the majority of the game, then make you pick just one for the ending. I don't mind that. But, I prefer having all the girls through the entire game with ZERO forced ntr content. I left Carla enabled here in The Builder and found out it's not actually a genuine ntr because... Carla isn't actually having sex with the other guy! He's a faux beau! A total fraud! We also discover that her pregnancy is ours! She's still a mess and there is no way I could take her back. But, she's more gamophobic (person who fears commitment) than she is a cheater. It's still a sick, twisted fucking situation, ngl, a total perversion. I get why you'd rather Carla burn in hell than a simple click to disable her. I played that option as active to see what happens in my initial play and will keep it on until I can finish my first play but I'll have to try a second play with that shit turned off too.
The first time I played (after Dev's corrections of certain scenes and situations to make it more enjoyable for fans of the harem genre), Carla and Paul, on the pure harem route, which is the only one I follow and will follow, didn't sleep together, and Carla's son was MC's kid. Paul didn't fuck Gry (but the scene wasn't fully corrected and left some in doubt). The thing is, I've disliked Carla almost as much as Paul, so if I have her in the game, it's just so I can tell her to go to hell at some point. I will wait to see if this is confirmed and then I will modify my game to include Carla and give myself the pleasure of doing it.

For anyone starting a new play that does NOT want to see Carla's content, there is a line at the employment event just before you first encounter Carla and her D-bag dude where the MC has the option to say, "I don't know these people" and Carla will not make any appearances in your gameplay at all. I know it's a far cry from the burn in hell option but you can play with Carla disabled and not have to see her at all. There's also an option in this chapter three to say no to anyone with whom you do not want to have sex and you do NOT have to watch the mayor take a piss... just select your options appropriately and you can skip over all of that like it was never there. Not into water sports or scat personally. I find that stuff revolting. Don't want to sleep with the preggo camper? Don't. It's all optional. Anyway... Phat is just rambling now and will STFU...

Adventure ever on my friend, Phat:devilish:(y)
Seeing the mayor pee doesn't appeal to me. Either that the MC has sex with the pregnant woman after taking a kid to be with the one I'm interested in. At least you can avoid all these things.

Started a new game and so far have been able to avoid any and all women I'm not into - so good
would like a quit button and slightly more choice to avoid situations, like the redhead falling into the garbage and carrying her to the shower scene, pretty dumb all around - any normal person would drop her outside the bathroom and avoid her shinanigans

Seeing the mayor pee does not piss me off. haha :devilish: I honestly don't mind that. It's when they want to piss or shit on me where I have a HUGE problem! TBH, I had to take a peek at the mayor's pussy! I just didn't save that part. I went back and saved without looking again... one peek was sufficient.
I don't like ntr content in general but there are a few exceptions... I'll play along and let the guy watch me fuck his wife or girlfriend just as long as she and he don't talk during the event. It's weird even if they don't talk but not a total deal breaker for me as long as it is not a frequent event. They can talk about it all they want afterward. I don't often go for that but if it happens, it happens. IRL I have only ever been with one married woman. She was gorgeous and I pursued her with grand passion. However, after several months together with us sneaking behind her husband's and son's backs, I discovered that she would never leave her husband. So, I ended it saying, "If you put even half the effort into your marriage that you do into sneaking around with me then you will have a more successful marriage." I still stand by those words and that decision. I will not only allow but encourage my main LI to bring her girlfriends to have sex with us. If she's cheating behind my back with anyone, man or woman, it's over. I can forgive her but could never forget that shit. I would see an image of her fucking someone else every time I saw her face. That is a permanent wedge! And, the Holy Grail of "Just don't fucking do it, don't even ask!" is that I NEVER want to catch my wife or girl being fucked by another guy! So, don't even think about asking me to watch that shit, dev! That is my ultimate limit on ntr. If that were the case with Carla and Paul then I would've gone back, chosen the "I don't know these people" option and removed them from the game. If she's bisexual and wants to have trysts with other girls, I'm cool with that as long as it's open, we both agree and the other girl is genuinely sharing and not stealing... if you follow me there. I abhor lies and secrets. When both parties don't know and agree to what the other is doing on the side, that's cheating. I always felt wrong having participated in that myself, even though it was only the one woman, we carried on like that for months on end... TBH, I should've ended it sooner or never gotten involved but hindsight is always 20/20, more's the pity...
Anyway... I've rambled on far long enough for now. Peace and have a great day!
Adventure ever on my friend, Phat:cool:(y)
PS: We need not agree on everything to be friends. I don't judge you for your choices. In fact, you make a lot of sense even when my view is somewhat different. Sláinte!

Actually it looks like they backfitted them into the earlier scripts with this release. They should have noted this game breaking change that requires a restart. I'm just pulling numbers out of my ass based on a hit count from grep and defining them in the console rather than doing a new playthrough. So far I'm seeing "karma" and "conf" getting defined and bumped but haven't finished the latest chapter yet. Neither one is actually in the conditional of an if-then clause in this release.

I think this dev really needs to test their game BEFORE releasing it. There are to many undefined variables that would have been caught with just a basic play test.

I am pretty sure they will be needed later on in the game since they are calling them now.

As frustrated as I get with this dev, complaints about points errors are unfair to them. They did tell us that they added a points system and that it would require a restart:

The thing is, I don't even think the game was intended to be an NTR game. I think the developer just didn't know what NTR was, and thought "early sex scene = good" regardless of who was involved in it. Ep.3 has some weird choices, but, for instance, there aren't any NTRish things happening during it, and there are literally zero checks for the pure harem route in Ep.3 (there are zero checks for basically anything in Ep.3, just options that cause you to skip scenes - ETA: confirmed, there are absolutely no if-statement checks in Ep.3 at all):
View attachment 1925977

The way the script is structured so far makes it pretty clear the dev doesn't know what appeals to harem fans (Ep.3 MC avoids fucking the willing, virginal, and fertile niece to instead fuck the woman already pregnant from a donor) OR what appeals to NTR fans (even in the specifically NTR-labeled flashback scene, spoilered below - I read the script of it because I like to know what I'm arguing against).

It seems very........ Scandinavian of the dev.

I just played the latest version.
Honestly, the game isn't half bad, I certainly would not call it a masterpiece as there is a plot issue and the story is contradictory to the plot. The characters also have issues. Especially with their actions and decisions. They make no sense sometimes. The weak MC also doesn't make things better. Aside from these nitpicks, I think most of the other stuff isn't the worst.

The game certainly isn't the worst as some people claim to be and I believe this game will climb up as we go on. Heck, it already has a lot of support. I believe this game will only grow from this point on. In terms of both support and quality.

I know its a porn game, but just the fact that the setting is in a Norwegian fjord does it for me. Not cliched like most other games. I think he captured the serenity of Undredal quite well. I kept replaying the ferry ride...it was actually calming, just as the MC found it to be.

i like the look of the girls but i don't like ntr, so i'm happy it's optional. the rest of the game is really good so far.

i'm already looking forward to the next update.

Ok so I haven't played the game right, but I'm genuinely curious how does a game with a description like this
manages to be NTR.

I wouldn't normally play it but I will just to find out.
Game was marketed as a harem but it was full of ntr dev has tried to fix it but it just gets worse as the the game goes on lastest version you meet 2 new girls 1 is pregnant from a donor now the question is whats the point of the mc if the girls have donors so ya play at your own risk.

I hadn't liked that preggy lady idea, but to be honest, by a plot she was an outsider (i.e., a tourist), so definitely not from a village itself. MC's unofficial mission is to knock up village (i.e., local) ladies, despite any previous relations or voyeurism acts prior to arrival there by a ferry. He's supposed to leave long lasting mark at Fjorda, not somewhere else. Plus, preggo companion girl still might be one of potential LIs.

There is the thing tho: MC cannot possibly know who is staying or not,
as any girl might just up and leave, precisely as all the babes MC meets
through his job interview are elsewhere, so not the target,
but they keep talking like they were.

MC is surely clueless as he arrives by boat and stays in a motel
where approx. nekkid lady does the chores.
What is more disconcerting is how MC can only manage to strike
a friendship with the outsider girls, the tourists, not any local.
Again, the whole plot and tension is lacking to the point it is lost:
MC enters a contest where he is tested for sexual prowess,
literally wins it based on his potent sperm,
only we find out he took a celibacy vow. ?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!?!?!
Such a complete idiot is the MC we are here to play.

Then players keep pointing out he is supposed to go after the babes in that town,
but the babes he meets and tell us they should get pregnant too, by him,
are not in town, as after the contest MC has to travel far away by ferry.
