ADAMS Owl`s I looked at the game a second time, about a year later. I see that the page on Steam is a release (albeit in early access). I apologize forty times, maybe this was already about forty pages in, the question is: how will the game be updated and with what frequency? Are the seasons in the form of DLC, or will the Steam version be updated in parallel with Patreon? I'm worried about the development cycle and the date of the first post. 2 full years.

I see that of all the pages the most “profitable” is the patreon and there are quite a few subscribers (for example, boosty looks abandoned), so you are probably not going to abandon the game. For now. Since patreon is not an option for me, I would like to know, approximately, for what and how many times will I pay through Steam. 6 bucks is not a problem, no problem even at 6 bucks for each part, but since I like the visuals and even the plot, I wouldn’t want to give it away for just the prologue.

This for sure have good potential if we do get good/long updates.

There still are some story gaps:

I'm still looking forward to this game tho , despite not being an uncommon narrative.

Wow… even though it’s the Steam Winter Sale period, this game isn’t discounted at all. If it had been discounted by even 20%, I think a lot more people would have bought it.

It feels like they’re doing business in a very high-handed way, so I’ve decided not to buy this game and to just play it here instead.
Even considering that it’s early access, I have absolutely no desire to pay full price for a game that offers only this much content for the cost.

Above all, there’s always the risk that the game could be abandoned midway, and if the developer gives up on it, it’s not like we’d get a refund anyway.

It's probably too new for Steam to allow it to be discounted. Contrary to popular belief, developers have no say about that; they can only set the base price.

Yeah, the dev is certainly skirting Steam's rules by releasing the game as if it's finished and treating it as if it's in EA. Steam was clear that adult games can't receive content updates except through DLCs, so we'll see how that plays out.

Six bucks is not a price that will make you go bankrupt and go live under a bridge.

I would also like to understand what the developer’s plans are, whether there is at least some semblance of a road map, and how things are going with payback in general, without numbers of course.

I like... The vibe of cheap street racing movies from the 2000s, which the game creates at this stage. And I wouldn’t want it to be abandoned. Not because I paid six bucks, I can do more if he decides to release content in the form of seasonal DLC. I couldn't find any up-to-date information about the plans, that's the only thing that worries me. Perhaps she is somewhere behind the paywall, or in discord, where I’m too lazy to dig.

ps. I saw the post dated November 19th. It also does not contain any specifics about global plans and how the game will be updated on Steam.

$10.99
In terms of AVN on Steam, you should expect 3-5 hours of gameplay for that price.
You're right that we won't have to eat less to afford it, but I'd argue that it's more about not wanting to be stuck with an abandoned game.

Regional price tags. Mine is six. I bought it at full price in the hope of making my very small contribution to the motivation of the author. Personally, I like what he does.

That's right, new games are sometimes released with a 10% discount for the first week, after which they usually don't go on sale for at least three months.

I bought this one three days after its release :WeSmart:.

They've actually changed again, or maybe it depends on who reviews and approves the game :HideThePain:.

I mention this because several NSFW games have been released on early access again, and many others are still receiving regular updates.

It isn't just a you thing. It was the main reason I couldn't continue playing the game.

It is so obviously a black dude's hair. It's got the clean line up, fade and texture. But the dude looks white.

I don't even care if the MC is black, it wouldn't be for me because I prefer the whole "self-insert" thing, but at least it'd make sense. This is just the worst of both worlds.

And with how many closeups of his face there are throughout even just the opening, I can't tune it out. I can't stop noticing it.

How does a game with this much work clearly put into it make that amateur of a mistake?

100% accurate. I had mentioned it a while back but every time I come back to play it I have forgotten. Dev mentioned changing hair styles as shown by flashbacks but that is literally completely different hair and at the very least a mixed black dude's hair. How he arrived at that decision, I have to wonder if drugs were involved. lol

First ever playthrough. Now, I like the game so far. Or, most of it. My only gripe is Kira. Why does every game need an evil stepsister trope?
