billy path is optional is not my word but from KST himself,
plus he's not in the wrong taking suggestion from his supporters tho,
rather than listening to people that doesn't support him but demanding stuffs from him imo
I agree with you in general principle, but I would disagree with a small part.
Billy's path is optional, yes. This is what KST says to people who hate NTR content.
You have to know that many people come to this forum and in KST's channels to say, a bit worried even, "is NTR avoidable?".
Some people really care about the characters and the story, they identify hard with the MC or whatever... So for them, NTR is devastating.
Like in the other face of that same coin, some people freak out (positively) when they get NTR content.
For me, it's just a game, I don't care. So I don't understand. But for them... It's almost a true story happening.
So yes, it's avoidable. But when KST works for the opposite crowd, you "lost" in a figure of speech. KST's time isn't "avoidable".
And yes, you have to take feedback from the supporters. Absolutely true.
But for me, KST made a HUGE mistake when he closed his suggestion channels to non-supporters. That's terrible business strategy from my perspective.
Imagine that if you had a revolutionary idea to transmit to KST. Like the idea that would make this game popular to millions of people. That would make KST super rich and super powerful to make a legendary game... But the day you took the time to put it into words and to send it to KST... You discovered that you had to give money first before sending it...
Opportunity lost for KST. Because he wanted to focus on the feedback from supporters only... What a loss, what a shame.
Feedback is support. Some give money, it's good and useful. Others give their time and creativity and attention. It's support too.
On this forum, you can see Anon helping lost players and helping them with bugs and issues. I think that individual was more valuable to KST than the average supporter. Just an example.
and he's german if i'm not mistaken the last time i talked to him in DM while asking about the game development, (i could be wrong tho on this so don't quote me what nationality KST is lol)
German? Okay. But like I said, it looks like there is some "balls" in the cultural mix. Good for Germany if it's the case.
NTR is a thing here in japan for a very long time,
the word itself came from japanese language it's just shortened as NTR
it depends on which type of NTR that people are talking about,
and what Billy is doing in this game is nowhere close to what NTR is,
he's not even stealing Janice from Jason lmfao,
people just have some misunderstanding about the meaning of NTR,
Well, excuse me, but it's Japanese to me. Haha. Excuse me if I don't understand the subtle differences.
But it was a very new concept to me. I was always into getting girls as a source of pleasure, since forever. And this form of "pleasure" is very alien to me. Completely alien to me. And to be quite honest, it's quite alien and impossible to understand to me.
Gaining a woman's favor = pleasure. Then with NTR, it looks like losing a woman's favors to another person = pleasure.
How? I don't know. I would call them crazy. It's really counter-intuitive.
So, it's not my thing.
Looks like a kink I don't have. Like S&M content. I don't like being humiliated or whipped or humiliating or whipping someone. So... Color me as a basic person.
But it's nice to see a developer try to please a niche and small kink in a small population.
anyway...
regarding about Billy's being fat, KST did mention saying he's not that fat, it's just him making billy look too fat
but he never had any intention on making billy looking that fat, just a bit chubby
i forgot which post on patreon but i did see that reply one time,
Fine with me. But I really hate the stereotype of the fat nerdy gamer... I just hate it.
