That would also be my main issue with the game but honestly, what I like is so nicely done that I'm prepared to go through the less appealing fetishes ^^
What happened? Feel free to spoil me, I don't plan to play this one but I'm really curious after playing through just about all of Third Crisis awhile back.
EDIT: Oh nevermind, I'm dumb and I mis-read the OP. It's a different main character, I see now.
Unrelatedly, from what I'm reading in reviews and comments here, it sounds like the devs finally went back to a non-linear experience, so that's good at least. That was something that really ticked me off about TC, it started off as more of a sandbox RPG, but at some point they removed that and turned it into a super linear experience... and the corruption pacing... eh, I have a lot of frustrated opinions about TC.
Anyways, glad to see they're doing this one differently and giving players a little more agency, assuming I'm reading things correctly. I know I'm late to the party, but good luck on the project regardless, devs.

Yeah, words can't express how much the "everyone loves everything by default" approach to fetishes annoys me. It's something I seem to come across more often from western creators and plays a big role in why I tend to avoid/overlook them.
"everyone loves everything by default" will get more people and fewer turned off than some niche fetish that will get a few and many turned off. But I guess the best of both worlds would be like some games do that let you check off what you don't want to see, but some devs want their fans to experience the whole game they created and that makes sense too.

It's also safer to develop for due to harsher and harsher payment platform restrictions being introduced with every passing year.

Combat in the first game was a barely functional gimmick that didn't add anything of value. It sucked up development time while being so fundamentally poorly designed that no amount of work could ever justify its existence. Fortunately the developers didn't repeat their mistake this time around.
Yeah, but as Ronia mentioned above, it had a lot of problems, sidetracked the devs, and ultimately most people didn't like it. They were there for the corruption and open world style events and quests and the like. Admittedly, the setting and character background absolutely needed the combat for that story with Jenna/Vibe being who she was, but it was just kind of there and not overly great to a lot of people.
The devs took all that feedback in mind for this game. This game is very different in that sense because Zoey, the MC here, is not a secret powerful superhero agent character going toe to toe with the bad guys. She's basically a far more subtle hacker/thief who is trying to survive in a megacity under the influence of all the lust and corruption powers at play. Her skills are not combat oriented at all and it makes for a more interesting story here given the setting and what's going on. The different routes and opportunities so far are very clearly inspired by the first game, but are being built up to some really incredibly detailed levels imo. As long as the devs keep up what they're doing, I think this game will far surpass Third Crisis and the vast majority of games on this site, especially the ones with the same core tags.
