Episode 23 is a triumph! Great to see this game's trajectory as it closes out the marathon.

Re: Harem issues -

I suspect that some characters are willing to share with some others, but not indiscriminately. For example, I still think Monica / Jenna / Katie will be a real possibility (perhaps only with a patch), but not if any others are on the path. Similarly, I think Katie / Debbie / Lily / Jenna / Jolina remains a real possibility, but hard 'no' to including Monica, Bella, Elaine, or others in that mix. Beyond that, it's not clear to me that any others would be up for a group ending - perhaps Zara / Monica or Wanda / Angel? Outside chance of just Bella / Jolina on a 'dark' path? Librarian and Francois?

In any event, the number of endings being setup is staggering. That some 'harem' endings might exist amongst so many shouldn't really be an issue so long as each ending is satisfying. Best of luck to the devs on that one -- I still advise them to kill off some characters (not add new ones!!!) if they want to keep their sanity writing the last episodes ...

the hooker is obviously somebody's pet. can't stand her personally, looks or writing, enough to go back and skip the whole nerdcon to avoid the forced sob story and back and forth banter despite choosing only antagonistic options with her. she's zarah tier for me. no huge loss, i dislike superhero shit and am not too fond of jenna or fucking stage acting so the whole section wasn't for me anyway.
i really can understand this i wished that on my jenna path save there would have been an option to skip it like in the friends path or just the option not to dress in this stupid costume just walk behind her and let her do her thing... one can be supportive of the friends hobbys without partake in it. (the dogboy part was the real joke... first need help to get rid of him now wants us to make peace...)

(not add new ones!!!)
That's what I'm worried about when seeing Evie, even though I'm convinced that both Porsche and she only serve as side characters in order to enrich Jenna's content, yet I don't see much progress aside from the confrontation between Jenna and Katie.
Monica / Jenna / Katie will be a real possibility
I highly doubt that since Katie makes her statement really clear that she doesn't want any involvement/participation of her mom in their relationship, though it remains to be seen.
kill off some characters
I agree, Theresa (Dogboy's mom), Angel, and Wanda are the easy options to kill off. I wish in the next update the devs will focus more on the main plots and the characters within Monica-Donald circle instead of spending time perfecting scenes like Jenna's LARP scene and adding more landmine new characters like Evie even though she's freaking amazing.

It isn't "forced" unless you are dating Jenna, can totally blow it off and not go.

You do realize, almost half of this episode and 3 of the main character focuses was dedicated to the main plot? If you don't like the side content, avoid it.

I had a whole rant typed out but what's the fucking point....

Cliffnotes version...



Still a harem and still defeats the whole purpose of the entire not sharing thing. They may not know they are sharing but they still are.



Still a harem. When you start hitting 3+ women in one relationship you're in a harem as per the tag rules here and still defeats the whole not sharing thing.

Lets not even get into the Katie and Jenna thing that at one point was an instant breakup but now they are on the verge of fucking each other.

This is making Katies entire character arc to be the single most pointless thing ever because none of it matters anymore.

May aswell have Monica go down on them both, that makes as much sense.

The worst part, for me ... because I was doing it, is the fact I spent the past..... year or so?

About that long?

Telling everyone there is no harem, mocking people, arguing with people, mocking and arguing with people .... to pop in today and find out I was made out to be a complete and utter lying bitch because it is a harem game it's just not labelled and skirting saying "well, he may be fucking all these women but he's going to be a nasty cheater ... but still fucking them all"......

I'm annoyed for 3 reasons. When I was first told this wasn't a harem game, i'd stopped playing. I stopped because, unpopular opinion, unless it's full poly with everyone involved I find basic harems to be boring as fuck and this was looking like a harem game at one point.

Then I was hit with the old, choices will matter. Cheating has concequences. I fell for it. Here I was, expecting a glorious fall out like Become a Rockstar which is what I thought all the suspicion points were building up to which made choices matter because they had consequences.

Only, they don't as I just found out. So I feel lied to from that alone.

Then I spend all this time backing that dev up and telling everyone else there is no harem which now makes me out to be a liar and that does piss me right the fuck off.

Lastly, story and character development matter to me. If I wanted porn i'd go to Pornhub, I play these because they have plot and characters I care about. So when I play a game that's stretched out for a few years and watch these characters grow and certain developments happen only to find out they are utterly pointless it kinda kills it for me. Regardless of knowledge of events, having a character, in this case multiple characters, all dislike the idea of sharing then have them either join groups for the very purpose of sharing or still have the MC banging half the world it ruins the development of that character and renders it pointless. Whether they are aware of said sharing or not they are still sharing their man with multiple partners. That development only works if there is follow through and consequences, which there aren't as said to me here.

So now I know where it's going. I apologise to everyone i've argued with over this and especially those i've mocked. I was very wrong.

Now i'm going to find some wine because this has been a fucking depressing evening and this bitch needs a drink ...... or the whole fucking bottle.

Have the links been updated with a "FIXED" version?

I tried a clean install, and just dropped my [SAVES] folder in, and I can bypass the bugged Intro Montage,
but it just won't load any of my saves... I don't wanna start an episode and loose my choices, or resort to mod/cheats to get the stats to where they were... or are my Old Saves just fucked?

Also, I don't hear any music, after the Title screen. Again, clean, vanilla install. Not sure what's going on.
This game has had flawless updates, and I've been up to date for like the past 3 or 4 already.
There was a file mismatch in the full versions that impacted the intro (the patches were ok in that regard, I did put a file up a few pages back to fix that here), their also was some issues that cropped up with the renpy upgrade that was necessary for the music and sound (that you should be hearing if everything is working).

Cheeky has been working on a script fix for people having startup issues (that I believe he is already adapted to the bugfix rollouts today) as well as the save game issues that we are seeing from older renpy/older machine users that will be hot-fixed into our versions, but not sure that will help those here.
