billy path is optional is not my word but from KST himself,Well, to be accurate, the whole game is pretty optional...
Just don't play the game if you don't like the content. If you say that Billy is optional, everything is.
But KST's time isn't "optional". This is the key resource to manage in this project.
People who complain about Billy's content want to see KST give them what they want rather than answering to the requests of another group of users.
It's a fight for attention to get the rare resource (developer time).
Myself, I'm not really into the game. I'm more interested in business aspects and the innovative concepts in the genre. And I think that Billy's content is "original".
Thanks to it, I learned a new concept. NTR. never heard of it. But apparently it's a thing in Japan.
And personally, I find the harem idea a bit old fashioned. The MC in the game gets all the girls in the world. It was fine in the beginning. Can't have an MC not getting his way with women in a game with sexual content.
But it breaks the charm and realism of the game. When the MC is a genius at getting women into his bed... It ruins the story and make it less believable. Maybe add a choice? Get this girl but lose this girl.
And having the MC surrounded with tall, mature women is cool. I'm a bit tired of the hentai girls, small, cute, innocent etc... I like the concept of older mature kinky women. Tall, strong, beautiful rather than cute.
I think it's a real plus in the game. I think KST is Russian or something of the kind. You can feel there is some "balls" in the cultural mix.
So... All in all, KST made some choices. And about Billy's... Personally, I dislike the stereotype of the fat nerd playing world of warcraft. I find it disgusting and boring. It exists, for sure, but I hate it. It gives a bad image to gamers.
Why can't we be athletic, sociable, smart, wise, skilled and awesome individuals who can achieve anything in life... and still enjoy a video game with our friends.
Why do we have to be losers to be gamers? Aren't games about problem solving? Acquiring skills? Being awesome? Working together? communicating? Cooperating? Challenging our limits? And yet, we get stuck with the fat silly gamer stereotype with Billy... I dislike him for that. Just for that.
But others love it. Maybe it's like those Japanese porn genres where there is an old ugly dude enjoying young and pretty girls? I don't know... maybe it's the contrast that makes it interesting?
Porn sites made a study explaining the success of amateur genres. They say that average looking women are sexy because they are believable. Users think they can get such women in bed with them. While porn stars with fake bodies and tons of make up look unreachable.
Can't be sure. Watch and see.
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
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)
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,
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,
