Played again to understand giving Pat an option in the hotel it was odd when I first played it. After playing it again I feel the dev attempted to show Pats conscience. I hope that was his goal anything else doesn't make sense.

It was, odd, very odd and out of character...given the previous Pat interactions and his overall personality...
It was like, where the fuck did Pat suddenly find a moral compass?
Well, he didn't. That's why the reader had to be given the choice, because otherwise, Pat would be his shitbag self...
So, yes, it doesn't really make sense. Maybe it will eventually, who knows...

However, in context of the overall disappointing tone of the update, having the option to make Pat less of a shitbag, is why I have hope the next update will course correct, yet again...

Bobby did say Kathryn can get knocked up by other men. I hope so fucking much that doesn't mean just Pat.

I want it to be Charlie and I so want it to be wholesome and for Luke to be excited about being a father.

even tho that isn't something I'm into I do Charlie would be the best option for that for now. I'm a bit unsure about Franklin till we learn more about his involvement. I get the feeling he may in deep but not as bad of a guy as the others. But he would be my 2nd pick and has the potential to be better than Charlie something about him I started to like in this update.

I'm very sorry if I'm talking something stupid, but is Luke sterile, or something? Is he being the biological father of his own child so out of the curve? I saw a lot of talk about other guys impregnating Kathryn, while he assume the paternity, but not one about what would be the normal curse of actions. After all, it's expected that, if your GF gets pregnant, the child she's expecting is yours. I understand that this would be "boring" in a NTR involving game, but is this an impossibility?

Nah. That's just one of Joshy's things. Nothing to do with the story, yet...lol
There are a few stories where this paternity uncertainty is present, and it's part of the kink...

Bobby did say other men can knock her up so I'm just excited because it rarely happens in a sharing situation.

That's intriguing. I'll have to try to look for that.

Putting "Pat" and "conscience" in the same sentence is something I never would've considered before reading your post.

When he was having his self dialogue he mentions how he wants her, but could he do that to his son. He has what I call the pros and con of messing with his sons GF especially if he wants to rebuild his relationship.

Pretty crazy when the pervert flasher seems like the best option. That's when you know the game is full of creeps.

Putting "Pat" and "conscience" in the same sentence is an oxymor .

By reading all these posts I realize that the majority of players are not shocked by Kath’s betrayal because, after all, it is a pornographic game with NTS and NTR choices, but the chose Pat to do it, is the person that Luke hates the most in the world without forgetting that it’s about the father ... there would be so much more possibilities with other much less divisive protagonists than this former alcoholic and playful looser who fantasizes without any scruple about his son’s girlfriend ...

I understand Bobby for allowing the hotel scene to be allowed despite a 'wrong' choice made well before, however, given Pat’s choice, I think it would have been appropriate not to allow it if Luke had accommodated them.
It is clear that if the player does not bring Luke, he wants something to happen between Kath and his "father-in-law" ...
Personally, it spoiled my pleasure that there was this opportunity even though I had sent Luke to accompany them... but well, it’s only my opinion and since I don’t finance Bobby, my opinion doesn’t matter at all ...

To finish this post, I admit that I wanted to finance Bobby for the excellence of his work, however the latest update discouraged me from doing it, wait and see ...

After playing the update a few times - I break from others in thinking the pat scene wasn't the fumbling... sure it's has a "bad end", but that's only after the player has selected some ~3 choices deep to proceed.

The thing that felt way more rammed through to me was the previous night's event.

Luke was mean to Kath Johnny. And then Kathryn sided with Pat which was the worst thing imo.

 

[Dessolos]

Good thing gonna redo my main save so that path won't be part of my main save. To me gonna just pretend it doesn't exist and Luke staying at home is default

Yeah i dont debate that - but the whole thing felt so cartoonishly over the top.... it didn't have a big impact on me, it didnt sting.

It did me, that's for sure

Luke's reaction to Kat's dirty talk on the livestream was completely over the top. Admittedly I didn't see that scene until a later run as I wasn't a fan of putting uncensored stuff of Kat online for randoms. I get that Bobby is showing that Luke still has some inner conflict over the whole thing, but how long are we going to keep doing this?

There was no need for the Franklin scene to also be an NTR one, as has been spoken about here many times. Kat should be well aware by now that her doing stuff with other guys turns Luke on, no need to keep it a secret. She could have told Luke as soon as Nate left and then it could have easily been turned into a possible sharing scene IMO.
The only reason why that I can think of is that Bobby was determined for NTR fans to eat well this update and that was his main concern.

Yeah i was talking about the project modeling.

It just felt so railroaded to me - we were on what felt like a high-stakes game of cat and mouse with nate and he did a good job building tension....but then it suddenly changed tack; with nate switching from a predator to a voyeur; the vibes made no sense to me.

I'm also sour grapes because I saw that as the one potential erotic scene out of 3 that had the setup to break from the 'old dirty man' mold...(okay well maybe pat's not that old and dirty but you get my drift) - her doing stuff with peers.

Little by little, I've realized I'm not the target audience here

It's just some bug and grammar fixes.

Is there a way to turn off name saving? It's annoying to pinpoint the Ok when constantly saving?
