Will there really be no harem ending ? It's starting to get really difficult to choose And to some extent, some relationships could be brought together without it being to unbeleivable, wich I know would decrease a bit the beleivability of the story, but hey, it's still is fiction after all.

No harem

100% absolutely no Harem

Katie in particular would cut off your balls and feed them to you for touching her sister, let alone her mom, which would be followed by a gruesome death. Sleeping with anyone else outside her trifecta would meerly result in gruesome death.

On reflection Elaine would also result in chewing gristle.

The problem with all of that, is that if there is no harem, it becomes moraly reprehensible to pursue other women than the selected ones from your path, past a friendship phase, while being in a serious or developping relationship with the selected partners.

From that point of view, the actual content of the game would actually become quite limited, and leave an empty feeling. Or you could pursue all women at once, have intercourse with all of them, and be a manipulative asshole.

Dev's have started it will not have a harem and they are not changing their mind on that.

In order for a harem to work several characters would need a complete rework and so would a chunk of the story and that isn't happening.

When the game is complete a non canon fantasy section will be added for those wanting a harem but it won't be connected to the main game.

It does limit the scenes you see without a harem because it's a dating sim not a "catch em all" game. You can have sex with everyone but it will have consequences.

The same consequences happened recently in Become a Rockstar where all the women left him and he's now single if you tried to get them all.

The game will let you have sex with everyone but it will end badly.

Objectively speaking, a harem is morally reprehensible. Even the modern westernised version.

 

[Abhai]

No harem

traitor!

 

[LiptonDI]

If that is the case, it would be nice to have a list of all possible paths to know wich routes to take, to not close any doors, and not be an asshole, or it would have been nice to have actual conflicting choices in game to notify the player when to close a path, or when to open one if its going to conflict with a prefered path.

Yes, that is correct. The price of being moral is limited sexual partners.

Only if you're lazy and only play one save.

That's the beauty of these games, there are multiple paths to explore, each with their own unique qualities and rewards, not every path leads to the same destination, but it is a destination. See the paths not as limitations but as their own gilded routes to their own endings.

Yeah I understand that point of view, but it would have better if it had been implemented like "Sunshine Love" or "Melody" for example. Clear intertwined paths, with clear demarcations, and an actual act of pursuing and being proactive to start a path.

Here all the paths pretty much fall in front of you and start by you just being nice or playfull, and you have to take action and be proactive to close them, usually after the Love interest of that path as opened up to you and shared intimacy, making you feel terrible about rejecting them. It would be better if you actually had to proactively pursue that path fo a while, other than just being nice and flirty to see wich are your options, clearly separating them.

Well you already have a harem like thing going on with Katie and her two friends if you go that route so them all being together at the beach house should be possible.

 

[LiptonDI]

That picture would actually suggest that someting is possible with katie and jenna ?

 

[LiptonDI]

And who is she ? I've been playing the game for a few hours already, and there is no mention of her, is she the mistress of the dad, the mysterious Theresa ? Do you actually have to play several hours into the game, just to start her path ?

It is why it would by nice to have a list of available paths, and wich LIs are on wich path, to decide wich one to take, before locking yourself emotionaly into one, without having to restart the game ten times.

 

[myuhinny]

LiptonDI

She's appears in the last update.

 

[HornyyPussy]

traitor!

I cut a deal with Cheeky&Ace.......

No incest in the game so no.

 

[HornyyPussy]

So that picture can't happen ? Why put it here, is it a remnant of a previous concept ?

that picture is from in game, katie is putting on fake tan on jenna

Do you even read what's written in the game at all???

pretty pictures?

 

[felicemastronzo]

I'm doing another run, while trying to convince myself to start another unfinished game.

And I found what will be my "guilty pleasure" run, codenamed ALL IN. Bella + Jolina, with relations at a minimum with our "adoptive family", with the goal of collecting the whole inheritance together with the two girls, with Bella helping us to put Elaine out of business and with Jolina as the third heiress.

only the bravest....


don't tell lily....

 

[Snugglepuff]

pretty pictures?

With a visible text-box that you have to press "H" to get the "full prettiness".

That, combined with what you pointed out as happening in the picture and earlier dialogue literally tells us what's happening, and IIRC that doesn't come with pretty pictures

:EDIT:

all i saw was jenna topless......

No, earlier when there wasn't that pretty picture. Dialogue with different pictures and no nekkid Jenna's pillows of "MMMMMmmmmmm.... So comfy"-ness.
