Sneak Monkey
I explained this already earlier in this thread and was hoping the new "info panel" also made this more clear.
Players are not supposed to grind at all; there is really no point to do more stuff in the dungeon for example, once you unlocked the current h-interactions with Clara. It is just an unfortunate side effect of a game being under development that you can't unlock any more scenes at a certain point. Once Chapter 2 is completed, it will flow a lot more naturally.
One thing that just came to my mind is that I could potentially lock off the dungeon with a note ("no point before next update" or something) after the player finished the max Clara interactions, OR, after they finished the max interaction with Clara for the first time (currently handjob) I could add a short message a la "this is the end of the current main content, you can still improve stats and collect items, but have to wait for next update do unlock more scenes".
Any thoughts / opinions on those suggestions, or other ideas?
I am grateful for feedback like this and want to make sure it's a fun (non-grindy) experience for everyone.
