The great Tee Hee war of 2022 is reigniting! Hide your daughters!
I get what you're saying, but onomatopoeia is a word formed to represent the sound it makes (so it's "kaw" or "ruff" because that's what those animal noises sound like). So here, that's still saying it sounds like the characters are saying "tee-hee" regardlessI could see something like tee-hee giving that impression, even though it's just an onomatopoeia. If a bird called out and the sound were written as kaw, the intent isn't that the bird actually says "kaw". A dog's ruff isn't supposed to make you hear it saying "rough". But I definitely get it: knowing a word represents a sound doesn't necessarily change the impression you get from seeing that word in a story's dialogue. And with a format like VN, it's more likely onomatopoeias will look like they're being said rather than just noises of half-repressed laughter, being frustrated, etc.
Nobody (unless it's totally forced or specifically in a conversation like this) actually ever says, "tee-hee", ever. They might hold their tongue a certain way and try unsuccessfully to hold in a laugh so the sound coming out is somewhat close to "tee-hee". But no one actually says "tee-hee" in normal speech. That's exactly why it's an onomatopoeia. So I guess you could just insert asterisks around it — *tee-hee* — and then it wouldn't be spoken, and you wouldn't need to find another word like "giggle" or "chuckle".I get what you're saying, but onomatopoeia is a word formed to represent the sound it makes (so it's "kaw" or "ruff" because that's what those animal noises sound like).

I think the formatting is the thing though, like with the "chuckles" between asterisks, it makes it seem like it's a sound being made, rather than actual words being said. An example you do sometimes see in these games is *cough*
That's the point, and basically what I said a few posts ago. Nobody does that, but in the game that's exactly what they are doing, either by design or by the absence of formatting just making it seem that way.Nobody (unless it's totally forced or specifically in a conversation like this) actually ever says, "tee-hee", ever.
Right. My point was that you might as well just add the asterisks instead of completely changing the onomatopoeia. But it doesn't matter; have fun using / working on that.That's the point, and basically what I said a few posts ago.

It isn't the "hee-hee" or the "tee-hee" that gets me, but the writing in general. It is just translated or written so poorly. Whenever I have tried to play the writing eventually just wears me out.I've had this game downloaded here for months, but whenever I try to play and see those 'hee-hee' or 'tee-hee', I end up closing the game, so if the dev changes the dialogue, I would like him to change it, the game has great renders, but the dialogue...
I looked it up in the search, and I know I'm not the only one who doesn't like it.
yeah I kind of turn my brain off when it comes to the plot or story and just focus on the characters since that's the only thing I like about this game. But that is easy for me to do since there are characters I like and that is more important than story to meIt isn't the "hee-hee" or the "tee-hee" that gets me, but the writing in general. It is just translated or written so poorly. Whenever I have tried to play the writing eventually just wears me out.
The entire script needs to be proof-read and fixed for English.
And some stuff is just so weird. Like the MC getting assigned to the basketball team. Does the author know nothing about sports? What about a try-out.
The game could be great, but the script and writing always push me away. It is just really hard to spend hours with the bizarre writing.
In order to give the game its due, the writing here isn't as bad as in some games on this site where the writing is much much worse. Nevertheless, even those games have their share of fans.It isn't the "hee-hee" or the "tee-hee" that gets me, but the writing in general. It is just translated or written so poorly.

Hey there!
A poll about additional events for the 1.5.0 update will be added in a few days.
A poll about extra events for the 1.5.0 update will be added in 7-14 days.
________________________________________________________________
Important
Got a few DMs about this here and there, so for anyone still thinking I’ve bailed on UoP, just milking your money, or gone MIA, please check out all the news posts from April and May. I'm sure this will clear things up for you.
Now, about the 1.5.0 update. It's about 10-12% done. Overall, I had a solid start after a long break.
The rough release date for the 1.5.0 update is in the second half of August.
________________________________________________________________
About the v1.5.0 update
1) Events:
Also, my plans for the 1.5.0 update include:
- 1 big event with Rachel -- 60% completed
I'm also keen on adding:
- 1 event with Sara, Nikki, Mickey, and frats
- 1 event with Yuki (+ a possible follow-up with Carol + maybe a continuation with Carol and Yuki)
- 1 event with Sasha and Alyssa (+ maybe a guest appearance from Mary or Hilda)
On top of that, there will be 2 additional events based on the poll, which I'll post in the next few days.
- an alternate version of Rachel's event (if the MC didn't ask Sasha for help with Rachel's divorce)
- 1 event with Sara (and a variation with Sara + Ashley)
- 1 main story event
- 1 event with Nikki (+ a few alternative paths)
I'm not certain about the other events that will be included in the next update, so stay tuned.
2) Renders and animations:
About 164 renders and 1 animations are ready -- Roughly planned: 1000-1200 renders and 8-10 animations
3) Other things:
________________________________________________________________
- a few more renders for the remake version
Best wishes,

Man she looks sexy with those stockings, please dev use them in sex scenes...
If you've come across them, Alyssa is the redhead who "works for" Sasha. I'm not sure exactly how to coin the relationship, but maid/sub is about right, I think. Mary is an employee as well, I think, but on the more business rather than personal side of things. She's the one who walks in on MC eating Sasha out and then takes a turn being eaten out herself (choice dependent). I can't think that I've come across a Hilda yet (no pun intended!)I read event with Nikki and i'm already excited she is my favorite. Kind of forgot who Alyssa , Mary and Hilda are tho. I'm guessing they are related to Sasha maybe as I dont think ive played her path in full.

Yeah Hilda is a new one. The other acquaintance of Sasha we've been with is Gwen.If you've come across them, Alyssa is the redhead who "works for" Sasha.

Damn, nephew. Cuffed, ass in the air. I hope she used lube.My bad, I forgot that Gwen was in Extras. She has some fun with MC after Sasha leaves him drained and leaves the room.
