You are going to disappoint people either way so it's better to be honest about what's in the game and tag it properly.
Are you calling me dishonest? I'm the most honest developer you will meet and I don't care how many supporters I lose because of my honesty. I will not mislead players with wrong tags just because some of you have mental issues that make you freak out over content you don't like.

I didn't mean it like that so i don't know why you're resorting to insults. But now that you mention it, yes, refusing to tag content that's in the game is a form of dishonesty and you are misleading people with this attitude. I've tried to have a civil discussion about this but that clearly isn't possible with you so i'm just gonna take my leave now.

Tags don't only exist to tell people what the main focus of the game is, they also serve as a warning so people can avoid content they dislike.
That's the question. You can see it both ways.

In both ways, some people will be offended or displeased.

I would argue for two tag systems: one to indicate the main focus, the other to warn about offensive content.

But it's very easy to overlook some of the offensive tags, especially when it depends on players reporting stuff. The gay scene in Midlife Crisis for example is very easy to miss / skip and I could assume that most players never see it.

And of course you can also hold the position that porn games are meant to be at least somewhat offensive, because that is what makes it edgy and therefore erotic.

No more discussion of NTR, tags, insulting each other, etc

If the game is not tagged correctly, report it.
Dont like NTR, then stay out of the thread.
You really like NTR but want to argue with others, stay out of the thread.
Arguing because the game doesn't have X tag, then report it. Its off topic when it derails into other conversations.

And yes, I over moderated the thread. If you dont like it, touch.

No. People complain all the time over content that is tagged but not visible in the game. The tags creates expectations and when people download the content based on tags then they get upset and start ranting in the game-thread because the game isn't what they expected it to be. The NTR tag will make people who like NTR download the game and this game will be a big disappointment for them.

The tags should help players not confuse them and build unrealistic expectations.
this goes both ways for instance in your five tags you put lesbian isnt there which is something i dislike and actively avoid the more info i have i can have a more complete understanding of what the game is. for me especially when talking about something like ntr whether 1 scene or the main theme i prefer the tag is there the site allows us to filter for and filter out tags for a reason what you suggest wouldnt allow that

makes no sense. it was the one asking about if we were gonna have the option to hook up with MC's...ward? trainee? and/or secretary.

which is weird cause it was a question about the game. not the discussion of what is or is not NTR.:rolleyes:

that being said i stand by being able to hook up with at least one of the throw away trainee's.... just seems like a wasted opportunity. really wanna get those benefits of being in THS. i can accept that we wont get ALL of them. but maybe one decent hook up before we send them off to a new master.


buuuut that's just me.:unsure:

The game isn't about lesbians. A lesbian who is looking for a lesbian game would be disappointed, even though it has a fair number of lesbian scenes.

It's the same discussion about tags all over again: are tags there to search for content, or to avoid content? :unsure:

Yes, you are one of the few who wanted to stay on topic, so why the moderators deleted you is unclear.

There will be possibilities to have at least one sex-scene with Tenley later in the story. But it will feel too unrealistic if MC has sex with every female character he meets in this big game. Besides, I want players to understand that THS is something more than just some sex-cult. MC is helping Tenley and Yvette with their work in THS. He is not their Master and hasn't any responsibilities when it come to training them.

it was a batch deletion yours probably just got deleted by accident in the cross fire, it happens,


But ya i was also disapointed with the fact we don't get to train the girls i thought that was the point fo the game and not be a glofied secretary... feels more like a demotion then a promotion to me but thats just me.. but maybe in the future that will change time will tell.




The game isn't about lesbians. A lesbian who is looking for a lesbian game would be disappointed, even though it has a fair number of lesbian scenes.

.... I'm pretty sure any lesbian who picks any game with a male protag would be disappoint in amount of lesbian content in the game regardless of how much lesbian content there is because clearly any game tagged with "male protag" means just by default lesbian isn't the focus of the game and is just a sub-genre.

just like if i was looking for alot of gay content i wouldn't pick a game with a "female protag"

but for people looking just for a bit of lesbian content would be quite pleased here there sure is alot here thats more then enough justifys the tag

hmmm ... you ( dev ) got me thinking .... :unsure:
question .... where or better yet when does the harem aspect start ... there has been nothing so far leading to that route ... is it something you plan , like towards the end of the game ? :unsure:
or was that tag not supposed to be part of this game ? :unsure:
i don't mean to question you about your own game ... i'm just curious ... yeah i love harem games .. but i also love mostly 70%-80% of other games on this site ... :love:
and regardless of anything i love this game ... :love:

The harem tag is probably one of the other tags that shouldn't be there, but people freak out if they can make an argument for a tag that should have been there. F95zone's tag system just doesn't work so the best thing is to just ignore the tags.

The text base version 0.53 is 53 days of gameplay (Always the same number as days into the story)
Illustrated version has 36 days of gameplay (2 days of gameplay in each update, but I believe that the pilot had 4 days.)
