I pulled it from the game script yesterday, so I don't have a suitable screenshot/s. I can find the part in the script again if you're just wanting to read it though?

That's okay, I'll find it in game. Is it mentioned After she dances with Pat and Luke and just before he storms out?

I just checked and yeah, it didn't show up at all on my save. I just wanted to be sure because I heard someone mention something about variables, so I didn't want the game to say Luke touched her if he didn't.

The dialogue branches during Kat and Luke's dance. If you get the branch where they argue over their sex life rather than over Luke's relationship with Pat, Luke accuses her of being too enthusiastic about fucking other people without him around, and Kathryn accuses him of cheating. The dialogue there has minor variations, but not to the extent of separate branches.

The update is good, but the only complaint is that the ai doesn't look the best (I think it was done so that Bobby was able to release this update quicker) and I really hoped that Katheryn would sit on Franklin's cock.

Yeah, the AI was a bit uneven here and there, but really don’t get the hate for it (not you) that some are vocalizing. As I’ve said on other games, it will take Devs a bit of time to master AI, but it is the future for these games.

The main thing here is not them accusing each other of cheating. It is that even if you discuss Pat, Kati stays with the a..., despite Luke and her having a great relationship. That is absolute BS, Kathryn would surely leave with Luke in this case. Her staying despite a good relationship is Bobby giving any love and sharing/swinging paths fan a longbowman salute!
A contrived, assinine, forced NTR setup! Kathryn knows really well that Luke despises Pat and still stays, even with a perfectly robust relationship. That is simply unbelievable.

Well, damn, the author has the audacity to release updates with errors for 8 bucks, so they paid him again for this terrible update, which they already paid a lot of money for, haha, they should have released the updates publicly, but Bob is very greedy for money.

Yes, your stupid updates for the entire game by the author and especially the forced scene that she stayed with him, and did not go or run after him, and another stupid scene where Luke tells the guy who came to them, they dream in clothes, he tells him "no", and Katherine says "yes", I will film, and then they offer another choice to film or not, and another stupid choice where the guy is sitting at their house and it is not Katherine who decides to go to Franklin's house, but he calls, goes there, and Katherine, like a stupid doll, lets him in.

You're being silly. This update was shit, but that doesn't mean the dev should be obliged to give away their work for free.

Cheers, I didn't even see this variation, that just shows how I usually play I guess. "Too eager" is just ridiculous. Pretty much every time Luke (the player) has asked Kat to do these things until now. Now we will shame her for doing them? I guess now Kat staying with Pat almost makes sense IF you have fucked around.
This combined with Luke's reaction to what Kat says while on the livestream, after putting the pics and videos of her on there. I hate when dev's give you control and then give you no say over stuff like this. The dirty talk was kinda hot and I wanted to encourage her, not freak out over it.

I also wanted to encourage her, Kathryn was so horny.
There is too much Blueballing and Teasing in the whole game.
We can bet how many scenes in the next chapter will end in Blueballing.

Hey guys, it's time for another dev log! You'd better strap in because this is going to be a long one. This dev log will contain spoilers for chapter 8, so proceed at your own risk if you haven't played the update yet.
Well, chapter 8 is in full swing with the early releases and wow, the response has been wild. Most of the people I heard from love it and some were less than happy.
Before I get onto what's in store for the future of this project including chapter 9, I want to take a moment to talk directly about why Chapter 8 plays out the way it does, because I know some reactions have been strong. Some players absolutely loved the intensity of the chapter, and others felt upset or blindsided. I understand both reactions, and I want to explain exactly what my intentions were as the writer.
From day one, The East Block has always been a story about a couple, Luke and Kathryn, who deeply love each other while navigating a new life in New York and experimenting with risky desires. Up until now, the sexual themes have generally revolved around NTS dynamics where Luke is willingly involved and both characters engage together or not based on player choice. Chapter 8 changes that formula, and that’s intentional.
The purpose of this chapter is not to “ruin Kathryn,” destroy their relationship, or turn the entire story into pure NTR. The purpose is to introduce real adversity, a genuine threat, something that forces both characters to confront the consequences of their actions, their desires, and their flaws. Every love story needs a moment where the characters face a situation that could break them if they aren’t strong enough to work through it. For this game, Chapter 8 is that moment.
The chain of events, the club fight between Luke and his father, the miscommunication, the storm, the motel, Kathryn’s emotional vulnerability, was all designed to push the characters into uncomfortable territory where their choices actually matter.
This chapter isn’t the end of their story; it’s the midpoint crisis. It’s the moment where things feel like they’re falling apart, so the characters can grow and eventually come together stronger than before. For players who enjoy the corruption/NTS dynamic, there’s still a lot of that ahead. For players who prefer the pure, faithful route: this chapter still supports that path. The consequences, guilt, regret, and healing are all part of that experience.
Kathryn has been placed in a moment of conflict, pressure, and vulnerability, just like Luke has been many times throughout the game. Characters aren’t compelling if they’re perfect. They’re compelling when they’re human.
I’m grateful for all the feedback, both positive and negative. If the chapter made you feel angry, anxious, protective, or emotional, good! That means the characters matter to you. That emotional investment is exactly what makes storytelling meaningful. The story is in full swing and there's lots more to come, so stay tuned to see what happens next.
What's next.
Work is in full swing on chapter 9, and I'm really excited to be working with my new employee for this update which will take some pressure off me. He'll be assisting with some of the tiring and monotonous stuff and also ensure development continues in at least a small capacity when I'm busy with family or other life matters. The sets for each scene are all made and ready for action. I'm already knee deep in the first scene and I feel really positive that I can get this update out quicker than the last two. I'll post a teaser soon from the next update as well as one poll for something I'm undecided on so look out for that. You all voted on Kathryn's sparkly red dress for this update and that is all ready to go, and she looks beautiful especially in the lighting I chose for that scene. Just so you guys know, after November 26th I'll be away for a week so my responses to messages will take longer, but like I said thanks to my helper, development will continue both on chapter 9 and updates to the old chapters, like animations and render fixes, grammar, etc.
Anyway, I think I'll leave it there. I want to thank everyone that gave constructive feedback and helped uncover bugs and typos etc, it was an amazing help. And once again, thank you all so much for the support, it really does mean a lot!
See you in the next one,
Bobby

hmmm if that is the direction he wants the story to go for story telling of the relationship while I don't love it , I can respect it. However I feel there was no reason not to include NTS with Franklyn at the very least.

It might have been the aim, but personally, I think he missed the mark here. We didn't get Kathryn seeing the same adversity Luke has been facing, it was completely different, but made more so by the way it was poorly forced.
I've said before, I don't have a problem with it being Kathryn cheating - and I had even said a few times that I was looking forward to what I (correctly) presumed would be Pat with Kathryn in this episode (or possibly just teased here and actually saved for the next one). It was just the way it was shoehorned in to be available on all paths that didn't at all work well.
