Would suggest to NOT use an incest mod, it messes up the game big time!

Agreed, an incest mod is the worst way to play this game and destroys the entire plot. There are a shit ton of incest games on this site and they aren't difficult to find, no need to ruin the experience of playing this game by using a mod.

Really? I've never tried the mod (and have nothing good to say about incest mods in general), but unless Monica is Dizzy I don't see how it would make much difference to the plot. Monica, Katie and Jenna are already treated as a surrogate family for the MC; making them actual family is easy and well within the usual bounds of incest game "logic." It's not like the MC's mother is an actual character who needs to be explained, so transferring that role to Monica is a simple matter.

The only meaningful wrinkle I can see is explaining why the MC stayed with Monica for a time before being dragged off to his father when his mother doesn't die. But that's trivially easy: just say that the MC stayed with Monica after the separation until she lost the custody battle in court (thanks to Donald's massive army of lawyers), and everything else goes on as normal.

Now why you'd WANT to make that change, that I can't explain. The world is already drowning in incest games, so even the minimal effort needed to convert WTHI still seems like a waste of time. But I don't get the appeal of incest games in the first place, so the mod clearly isn't aimed at me.

Well, also the whole will condition doesn't really make sense. I doubt that the dad could legally require his son to avoid actual family members in order to inherit money (especially if Monica is the mom and Katie and Jenna are his sisters). In addition a lot of dialogue needs to be altered or removed because the MC and other characters talk about his dead mom a lot.

Perhaps if a mod made the characters an aunt and cousin but even then it wouldn't fit without chopping things. After all, as soon as the MC shows up at the house he's telling Monica and Katie how hot and sexy they are. His second day there he's spanking Katie...

I don't think it makes much difference whether the will prohibits him from seeing people or family members, MC is of age and can see his family without any problem.

If anything, it would be more cruel.

I hope the story continues and a new update comes out!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see that you haven't played any incest games if you think spanking and calling someone sexy on day 2 is off the table
The mod is more than just renaming a couple key characters and it actually works perfectly well with this scenario, so much so that i would even go as far and say that the writing with the mod is probably better than 90% of the games on this site that were intended to be incest themed from the get go.

Hey. Some of us have played this game with an incest mod from the beginning, and we're perfectly happy with the storyline. So enjoy your opinion but don't squat on our choices.

 

[UncleFredo]

Mr Friendly - you're entitled to your opinion and to face palm me to your heart's content. But i stand by my comment. As much as you think the incest thread messes up the storyline, I prefer it. Tastes vary. So facepalm to your heart's content.

I've been operating under the assumption that the conditions of the will that the MC has been told aren't the true conditions of the will. The dad always wanted MC to "not be a pussy" and make his own way. Be strong enough to go against his father's will.

So the conditions of the will are outrageous in hopes that the MC will refuse to follow them and THAT'S how he actually gets the money. If he does what he's told, he's still just a sheep not deserving of the money.

Likewise the others involved have conditions told to them that will play to their inner demons (Elaine being a cold hearted gold-digger for instance), that if they actually follow what they're told the will says will cause them to forfeit. They have to go against it (Elaine being selfless and caring, for instance).

Just a theory.

Nah - Just a little cameo/crossover. I really like CheekyGimp's work, so I asked if he would mind if I included them in my game as a tip of the cap to him. A little while later, he did the same for me.

I always like to think that a lot of our porn games take place in the same universe, especially since so many games use the same assets an locations, so this kinda brings that thought together a little bit.

I loved those crossovers! Just awesome.
I played My Sister My Roommate before playing Where the Heart is, so at that time wasn't familiar with Kate and Lily's cameo on the beach. When I saw them in the restaurant scene it all made sense and I was blown away.
Yes, the shared universe across different devs games is a great touch. Hope to see more of it.

 

[Kukipett]

Good for you, that you like her ... I´m not, because i don´t like her Look (same goes for Monica and Zarah) or the background story.
I personaly wouldn´t waste my time with someone who acted an way just because someone else wanted it.

Everone like other things. So for me the most Chars are just "meh wtf boring ugly".

My god, so the characters are ugly ?, i just hope that IRL you will find someone who isn't !!

Don't you just love the "Fashion model or gtfo" attitude?

If the games use the same assets it's just because they are ready made and you can buy them for a few bucks on DAZ library.
Many devs are choosing to use those prefabs just because they either can't model their own or don't have time to do so.
Making such a game is time consuming and if a dev is alone and should do everything, he would need one year of work between two updates.
So that "shared universe" is the sign of "fast food" game made quick by an overwhelmed dev.
How many times have i seen the standard park, the groceries store, the colthing store, the same VW beetle and so on and on and on.....

I like better the "My sister has an ass face, but she's my sister and i love fucking ass" attitude !

I still contend that the standard park is a nexus point linking all these games. I want devs to have cameos with other games characters in the park (or the clothing store) to support my hypothesis.

 

[MrFriendly]

FFS why is there no option to completely remove characters we don't want? I was only interested in the 2 sisters, but the other girls kept showing up even thought selected the choices that were supposed to end the relationships. Is there a sex scene with Katie and Jenna near the end of the current version that I missed because I picked the red options when there were other characters present?

There will never be a sex scene with Katie and Jenna. They are sisters and this is not an incest game unless you use a mod. Even then the creator of the mod would have to render new scenes to have a scene with them happen. The closest you get is when the MC plays with both of them during a massage (?) scene.

 

[zajaz]

Well, I, for one, like the fact that you can play the game practically without sexy times. I love how rejecting any girl's advance will make them go either or . I don't like forced romances, so this makes me happy.
