It would be interesting to see people talk to each other differently over the course of the game (although that sounds hard to implement). Yeah it's normal not to remember those examples b/c they are from the very beginning of the game. I didn't mean to be harsh with that. I hope the bigger takeaway from my comment isn't my criticism though, since I like RobertDeadth's writing a lot and I personally don't think it needs to change much. I don't want him to over-correct or stretch himself too thin.

Like he's mentioned more than once that he's gone back and changed some of the dialogue in the game. Now he's also going back to add animation to every previous sex scene. Then there was also the previous criticism someone made that said that they didn't like how the opening blowjob from Katherine is a forced sex scene. Later, we see Katherine apologize for this. I don't know if he's done all these things as a response to criticism but if he did, I don't personally agree with it. Like when Katherine apologizes, she seems so much nicer/self reflective (with no input from the player to bring about this change). That might be a lost opportunity to have a character provide a stark contrast to the rest of the romance-able women; Katherine being a selfish, almost desperate woman who can maybe add drama or push the story in a direction the other characters wouldn't be willing to. Might even make more sense to why her driver (Faith) would want to help you if Katherine treated her badly.

Like for animation, he might end up thinking he needs to add even more of them as he looks back on the game. An example would be when Maya is dancing (although that would be super hard to add). Or there may be funny situations when someone plays the game after buying on Steam and thinks RobertDeadth doesn't like Ayaka as much b/c the earlier animations are better than Ayaka's which appear later in the game lol.

Anyway, I'm probably wrong and he just wants to make the game as good as he can before he releases on Steam? But yeah, after that, my sincere wish is for him to not over-correct and not linger on the negativity and keep going back b/c of certain criticisms.
I remember the Maya dance scene - it was fine as was, but there are enough slides in it that if you back up and skip forward, it becomes an "animation". ;)

This is a really good game.:love:

Technically, everything is perfect; I found zero bugs, and the renders are good.

The girls are beautiful and sexy; some of them may appear somewhat similar among themselves, but this isn't like other games where the girls are clones. They also have different goals, different reasons to be in the game, and, of course, different personalities, so the game feels varied in that regard.

Also, the developer did a good job of establishing the mystery of the reality show, so there is a reason to come back besides just the girls. (y)

The only department the game is lacking in, in my opinion, is the sex scenes; they are short and can be quite boring.

Just started this vn and I have to say the characterization of everyone is just wonderful.
You did a great job making sure each of the people in the house feel like actual people.

I am not that far in, just hit the first sex scene but I have to give it to you, each of the girls is adorable and unique and I would fight richard for them all (if he had a penis, xD).

Seriously though, the verboseness is good. I know alot of people want a quick fuck game but this is obviously not that. I think having the 1st sex scene the first night was still good and made sense for the plot.

Not sure if I have a Best Girl yet... lots I just want to hug the stuffing out of (and back into ;) ) but not sure if one is above the rest yet...

I have mixed feelings after last update, i've enjoyed all that time spended with Ayaka and all scenes, but scene when this update ends almost broke my heart. Update ends in worst time possible and we must wait for some lovey-dovey with Da-eun till next update:KEK: :oops:
Seriously it was great and heartwarming update, now i can see difference between romance and casual porn game.
Thank you!

just started playing and i mean Richie seems like a swell dude
I can't help but wonder...
is he just here to suffer?
He's one of the spies. He and Katherine are secretly in an open relationship and Maya is secretly their daughter - she's in on it all, too. It's just an elaborate sex game for them all. ;)

Can i save my boi Richard life? especially with his wife.
Well he lost his dick and part of his brain got damaged which made him asexuel....
Solutions
1) We could make him a cuckold and do his wife. So his wife is satisfied and he can enjoy the show.

2) A rather dark solution
We make him join the local satanist cult, make sure he's useful for his new lord...you know the usual stuff, burning down churches, sacrificing priests, nuns and virgins and selling his soul to satan.
Hold cabals to praise the lord and he might just grant him his wish and heal what is missing.
(disclaimer: his wife might birth some kind of demonic offspring)

Clearly and undeniable proof

Most of the recent reviews have mentioned that the game is too wordy and the dialogues are unnatural. I wanted to ask for everyone's opinions/advice about how to improve it. I understand the concept of wordiness, so I'm guessing that I'll try to improve that before the Steam release by trying to reduce the number of words used to convey the same message. However, the concept of the dialogues being unnatural is something I'm uncertain about how to improve. Maybe it's because English isn't my first language so the dialogues seem too formal? I'm not sure how to improve that cause I don't really instinctively see it myself. Would anyone be able to provide an example of an unnatural dialogue from the game and how it could be edited to be better? I think I'll probably get the concept after I see an example or two, so then I could improve the rest of the dialogues myself.
I for one have really enjoyed your game so far, I can say that there are parts where I haven't found the dialogue so important to the plot, but I've read it anyway, I just found it funny, so it did the job. Furthermore I don't think it's been too much.
I myself as a developer have also put quite a lot of dialogue in a scene, and there are players who tell me that they really like the story, and on the other hand there are those who ask me what they have to do next, even though the explanation was in three lines of dialogue before. So obviously they didn't even bother to read those three lines of dialogue.
So don't worry, there are always people who enjoy reading, and those who don't read at all even though their life depends on it.(and for them there is the skip button).;)
I am not a native English speaker, but I still think your English is very good. Keep up the good work you have done until today, your game is great.(y)

The female models in this VN are stunning :love: and the animations in the last episode was well done (y) and story is quite good and make progress with each update . i don't see any problem with dialogues and didn't feel it as wordy ,I'm unable maybe it's cause English is not my first language , but it's better than most games in this site where simple things like male charecter are referred as her or vice versa are seen .

Played a bit and very few choices - only to guess in 2 truths and a lie. Is this an actual game or a stupid Kinetic Novel. Because Kinetic Novels suck the cum out of a dead man's dick and are NOT games.

Someone's already said they had a (this?) problem but didn't give details.

Using your mod, which contains both gallery and script.rpy that cause the errors, two labels are defined twice.
