In fact, after that Mall Scene (By the way, that blonde in the background made me think Magik), they made it clear that its been at least a month? More?
The game said the protagonist was in a coma for six weeks.
Like I'm cool with Null being maybe at most 4 years older than the women he's ending up in bed with but it gets a bit weirder when he's hitting 30, dating 18 year olds.
Double Standards come into play where I'm not complaining if the women are like a decade older than Null. I don't mind that power dynamic. It feels less weird but I'm into older women tbh so *shrugs*
I don't really have a problem with large age differences between characters as long as everyone involved is a consenting adult. The issue I might have is if there is some sort of inherent power imbalance in the relationship such as between a teacher and a student. Not necessarily a deal breaker, but it makes things trickier; another reason I'm lukewarm towards Storm in the current situation, and a potential issue in future chapters where the protagonist might become an instructor and newly introduced LIs might be students.
Note Augustus, that I have the same hate for you as your namesake for fucking up the calendar and making October no longer the eighth month.
But I still love you.
October stopped being the eighth month long before my namesake. As far as months go, my namesake was the visionary that decided to name every month after himself, unlike those quitters Caesar and Augustus who both stopped after one month:
Amazonius, Invictus, Felix, Pius, Lucius, Aelius, Aurelius, Commodus, Augustus, Herculeus, Romanus, and
Exsuperatorius although the order varies depending on the source. Unfortunately, the changes didn't stick past his death. Geniuses are never appreciated in their time; I mean,
Herculeus is a much better name than
October.
You're probably the first person to be genuinely constructive about grind, and we are working on it.
We might look into nerfing love if it is that easy to cheese. So congrats on being the first to make a good point.
How the hell did that happen? Is up down? Is the sky blue? WHAT IS GOING ON?
Although I will note that just because Laura doesn't have a hymen, doesn't mean there wouldn't be resistance. The girl's kegel muscles could probably shatter adamantium.
That and nervousness has a lot to do with resistance. women are really good at tensing their muscles if they're not properly relaxed.
Sadly, I did have a bit in my insane raving regarding that, but I deleted it since it felt superfluous. Let that sink in—my post was originally longer before I trimmed it. Still, the point of it feeling identical to the others, if not being exactly the same still stands. But I do understand, though. Early development . . . placeholders . . . . As I mentioned, the game is great for a beta, and I eagerly await future developments.
We're constantly tweaking the system. Sorry if my responses are shorter than your wall of text lol. We're in early beta so there's not much to say.
Quite understandable. Thank you for replying at all.
Oh, fuck dude. Get to work on that. It's an experience to witness.
My voice lacks the bass to turn a random stranger in an elevator into a puddle merely by asking her is she's "going down." Something a girl I knew told me happened to her. A random guy on an elevator who sounded like Barry White, and she just melted.
We're working on it. It was mostly an overreaction to spite some people who wanted us to not only have the mind-breaking of RLE but were harassing us to include some pretty hardcore shit. Necrophilia was mentioned by more than one person...
What's wrong with necrophilia? The dead are great listeners, and they almost never talk back.
Wait. You mean have . . . with a corpse? Ew seconded.
Do you? Are you truly sorry? I don't feel like you are.
For that part? Most assuredly. It was basically the literary equivalent of diarrhea. So inelegant. I'm better than that. I am deeply sorry and ashamed of myself. Plus there's the whole inflicting torment on my fellow human beings thing. I don't get it, but I'm told it's bad and that I shouldn't do it.
I parrot the others in saying you are indeed a basic bitch.
But trust me, we do have plans to expand on X-23.
One of the many burdens I must carry.
I do look forward to delving deeper in Laura's psyche.
The consensus seems split between either a dearth of imagination on my behalf or deficiency in my suspension of disbelief. Make your bets people!
I'm with you brother but ultimately we are a porn game.
Damn porn interfering with my ability to enjoy my porn properly.
Are you? Because I don't think you are.
Let's just say I am at least as sorry as Kathy Bates's character in
Misery when she broke Paul's legs.
Don't worry. Despite my sassiness it's all good. I'm gonna force the other devs to read this because I'll be fucked before I attempt to summarize this.
Yay! My master plan of spreading pain and suffering proceeds as envi—I mean, oh no! How horrible. Because empathy and shit.
Yes. It was longer than that combined with the Rāmāyaṇa.
I guess there's only one thing left for me to do: start a religion! How does the Church of Nullology sound to everyone?
See I've been advocating for the inclusion of the time-traveling X-Men just so it'd be less weird for an 18-year-old Null going around and fucking Kamala.
Time travel is one of those gimmicks that has been so overused, and so rarely used well, that I feel an instant revulsion just reading those words.
Well... I wonder if we can get away with Gabby making hum-hum posts...
Thanks for reminding me of something. I have enjoyed the social media in the game, and I had what I considered a fun idea for an Easter egg. Perhaps one season, the Mutiefan entries could be hacked and changed with accompanying humorous responses from the characters?
You gave headpats and had tea parties.
That's some sick shit right there. Next you're going to tell me there was hand holding. No wonder it was banned. I try not to kink shame, but some fetishes just shouldn't be tolerated.
I mean, Wolverine is 5'3 and played by the amazing Hugh Jackman and nobody noticed... He crouches a lot and is awesome enough that nobody minds that they couldn't find an actual 5'3" actor).
Oh, to be so young and naïve again. There was a ton of bitching about Hugh Jackman being cast and how he wasn't 5' 3". Now, he did a great job, and most people seem to just accept as a
fait accompli that Hugh Jackman
is movie Wolverine; however, I still hear/read the occasional debate about how movie Wolverine isn't the
real Wolverine. Personally, I don't care about the character. Not that he isn't a great character, but his popularity, along with Magneto and Mystique, led to them overutilized, and I just got fairly sick of them.
Besides, didn't Emma like try to murder other people? I mean... I assume anyway... Point is!
I can fix her
Aww . . . sure you can. Follow your dreams and never give up! (Commodus: promoting toxic relationships since 161.)
The mind is the most important sex organ.
If a woman (or guy) can get in the right frame of mind, an orgasm is easy.
Inversely, in the wrong frame of mind, an orgasm will be impossible; true for both men and women . Many women find it difficult to orgasm because they can't get out of their own heads (and then there is when their partner is just a shitty lover). In reality, it is likely that Jean would have great difficulty reaching orgasm in the early part of the game because of how wound up she is (not saying you should do this, as that would be no fun, just saying reality is a lot harsher). Laura's directness would be a bonus to her... also, she should have a higher default climax limit due to her metabolism... and being generally a horny little thing (a very good thing in my opinion).
Honestly, we're lucky the MC isn't PTSD as then this would not be even remotely a porn game (intimacy of any kind is extremely difficult for those with PTSD). Again, that would be no fun, and reality is harsh.
Yeah, it's a delicate balance between depth and believability and fun gameplay mechanic.
After starting fresh I got all girls dating me, Laura and Jean on Love level, Rogue on relationship part 3...however I'm still on Winter season and Jean's is at partial with the last optional event for consoling her in classroom when her and Xavier are there before class starts yet that hasn't triggered...anyone else get into that slump? As I'd prefer to get the optional quests done on their season etc..
For the most part, the optional events all triggered fairly quickly for me. The only exception was the Rogue/Laura friendship event in the Danger Room during summer. That one did take forever to finally trigger, but it did trigger eventually.
For bonus points: while some things should be standard for a character, randomize other things at game start so it's not always the same.
I'm not a fan of the randomization element, but the rest of the post was gold.
