HTML The Company [v5.10.0] [Westane]

[RickJencans]

Wait, are you guys telling me you *don't* think this game is highly realistic?? The game where your coworker demands you blow him in the bathroom on your first day at work and you work at an underground lab operated by Team Rocket?? The game where you strap a magical strap-on onto your sleeping mother's body (she doesn't wake up though, don't worry) that makes her grow a penis?? The game where you combine hormones with shit they use in lethal injections to make magical mind control serums to use on your friends and loved ones?

Yeah I agree with this, it's like if the dev didnt think the evolution of the relationship early enough in the game conceptualisation and developpement. So he is stuck with this relationship that he must make work with the entirety of the game mechanics. Its hard to do but possible, sadly he didnt do it much.

why are you shocked that this game is not realistic like how? XD

Well it is very possible to do a game that has realistic relations so that people can relate better to it.

What's being discussed is hardly even a "realism" thing tbh. Some things are just not consistent with the game's own canon.
Batman's hardly realistic, but it would still be pretty jarring if Bruce Wayne's parents got kidnapped by the Joker.

Before Dakota's most recent revamp, one of the first doses you gave her would have her divulge to you how sexually frustrated she is and how she never has time for sex. Her being a prostitute is a recent development and a massive pivot away from the original lore.

A lot of movies and games are about ordinary people put in extraordinary situations. Those situations bring the best or worst of them on surface. It's one of the most common theme actually.

"The Company" it's not an exception. It's built on certain archetypes / tropes and the message you get with the achievements should've made you aware of that. The "extraordinary" situations (unethical research, harassment, sexual favors and power abuse) are not exactly uncommon in large corporations IRL. Using untested drugs on people? Also quite common. Have you took your vaccine 2 years ago?

All that remains besides sex description are the relations between people involved.
But during the game development, somehow the bar for those relations shifted from "realistic" to "hentai".
We used to think that if we bring a beer to Penny she will drink it, not stick the bottle in the pussy. Not so sure anymore.

Just try a game session without serum. Pretty much Umbrella Corporation with sex instead of monsters.

Cheers

yes its possible but your talking about a porn game so again how are you shocked its not realistic ofc game with magical strap-on would be realistic

 

[gregers]

There's strict realism and then there's some semblance of logical coherence. This story obviously isn't realistic, but that's no reason for the character arcs to be completely incoherent.

I'd just like to point out to the newbies that this game has been in development since 2017, and for the last 3-4 years they've been mostly ripping out and rearranging the same content, over and over.

They've been revamping old systems at the request of their patrons. It just so happens that most of the people contributing to this game are more interested in expanding/refining the serum routes than they are in the main story.
Some systems had to be changed because they were an absolute pain in the ass. If you remember the original sex system, it was a boring, repetitive time sink. I used to mash "tab > enter" over and over again grinding Dakota's corruption just so I could give her the next dose.

Making the experience leading from one chapter into another enjoyable is just as, if not more, important than the addition of a new chapter. Just because the length of the story hasn't changed doesn't mean new content isn't being added.

Yeah I'm just waiting for the story to start advancing again lol

 

[qwsaq]

And after 4 years, how many of those are done?

So the last story update was 4.2, about 2 years ago. Following that:

• Home content
• Tasha
• The Pit
• Diana
• New artwork
• Dreams expanded

New updates come out about once a month and each one represents about a month's worth of content compared to pretty much any other game.
It's worth noting that every time new story content is added, people start asking when serum paths are getting their next update. Whatever's being worked on is what's being worked on.

Is there some sort of guide to exploring content? Like I know Ms. Dee can have some unique scenes where she becomes dominant even if you've doused her to be submissive. But how am I supposed to find unique scenes with prerequisites if I don't know where to start?

The Wiki on the OP is pretty good for that, it gets you through most of the important characters. It can be dated with real new updates but it is what it is. Check it out! :>)

This Wiki?

You must be registered to see the links

It seems a bit outdated, especially with new content
(Also thanks for the quick response)

It still gives you an "idea" of where to find content and how that content tracks. The general information being laid out is fairly good just so you know what's there and where to go

 

[TerumiNin]

No follow up on the Penny tentacles thing yet? None of the guides seem to mention it so maybe it's only in the scene player to begin with.

Can't get a female start as a virgin?

The Tentacles is just a bonus scene. Unless his community vote for another one, it's just a Random Event.

As for Virgin, don't think there's a way to start as a virgin

it might be possible if its a setting in the html or in the save file

Kinda scary that this one now features 2 women that off'ed themselfs...

There's nothing scary about it. This game has nothing to do with their deaths.
Neither one had committed suicide before being added, both clearly had severe depression to the point that Dakota Skye was bullied/harassed into killing herself (same as August Ames) and now Kagney Linn Karter for so far undetermined reasons beyond severe depression.

How so? Both characters have been in the game well before the real life counterparts did the awful thing. If anything, it just shows how bad the adult indsutry is that this happens so much.
