I haven't played this for some time, decided to start from the beginning, I'm not on Bella's route, denied her at every opportunity and never spoke to her about the usb stick, yet at one point when at Elaine's she goes upstairs and then comes back to hand over the usb.....wtf, anyone else have that happen?

She's still a major part of the story whether you fuck her or not.

 

[Ilhares]

there's a thing i don't get, dunno if someone already asked about that, sorry for my laziness but there where far too many messages .

how is it possible that the security forbid access to the beach house to Elaine but Bella was able to knock at the door unannounced? did i miss something?

Maybe the security doesn't like night shifts
or they're bella fans

Or, of the two, which is more likely to give somebody a blowie to let them pass?

Jenna, Jolina and Debbie.

While I don't agree with your selection, I would very much love to see Debbie's reaction if she catches you railing Jenna in secret.

There has NEVER been an incest patch, even the dev said it isn't intended as an incest game.

There might not be now, but I can say with absolute certainty that there was an incest patch at one point. Nothing official from the dev perhaps, but it was floating around out there, I found it available the very first time I downloaded this game from F95. I can't blame the dev for wanting to keep some distance from that, especially if it damages certain funding channel options.

I think Cheeky and I have made you lot a bit paranoid.

One would hope you're doing it on purpose.

I don't know how much is left to feed the paranoid crowds with, though. Unless you've just pitched in the largest red herring yet, there are just too many things that point to Bella as Dizzy. Ignoring her questionable behavior, there's still been the MC's interaction with the assorted women he's been bedding, and I think virtually every one of them has had a discussion revolving around birth control/pregnancy - except Bella. She's been totally okay with him getting his rocks off from the start and doesn't seem remotely concerned. I vaguely recall the "Dizzy couldn't give him kids" discussion, and so far outside of Zarah pretty much everybody else has the capacity, and has expressed concerns. Except.. Debbie? I can't recall if she did or not. Well, I'm trying anyway!

edit: How long until it pays off, I wonder?

 

[acewinz]

Dear Cheeky this thread has become a private investigators society, blame the fascination with WTHI history. Here we all, some sooner and some later have expressed our suspicions as to who was the Dizzy and who was the golddigger. Only Francis and the librarian are missing and then we can say that all the characters no one excluded has been suspected.
Elaine, Bella and Jolina are the biggest suspects followed closely by everyone else. Here we still insist to ask for a harem epilogue, others are looking for incest pacht that either by choice or because patreon is not there. If Monica was the mother the one welcomed in her house with Mc who is the hag? I am convinced that a visual game, even if pertinent to reality, must have a certain margin for fantasy, if not we should know how many times Mc pees, if Jenna and Kati are menstruating, Monica should tell us if she should use the pill or not.
It would be a flat and monotonous game, and if Elaine was stopped and Bella wasn't, let's hypothesize that the security guard at Vendola, seeing her all wet, became tender and let her pass knowing that Mc is at home. Let's try to have a little more imagination, it doesn't hurt but rather makes everything more enjoyable. Anyway, thank you Cheeky and the diabolical duo for everything and also for the terrible choices that you force us to make, as I can choose between Monica, whom I adore, the intriguing Jenna and the terrible Kati, or between Bella and Elaine. Thankfully you kept Theresa, Wanda, Zara and Angel out of the choices to be made....

Hehe, these things happen. I am honestly ecstatic with the amount of discussion this update has elicited, probably even more about the story/plot than the sexual hijinks. To us this means we are doing something right.

Me too.

And I still didn't give the house to Elaine. I mean, the MC just said it: He can let her stay in the house.
I don't have issues with Elaine and I kinda trust her and also like her. BUT... that's a big ass house. I can keep it AND not throw her out on her ass AND keep the choice to do that if she betrays me.


********************************************************************************************

Not finished with the episode yet and those "Big decisions" are kicking my ass. I mean, WTF man. From a manwhore that was fucking everything with minor, if any consequences I am now forced to drop women down every 10 minutes or something! When I saw the warning I thought it would be much slower...

 

[D9074]

Really happy with the update but damn, you guys don't learn anything right? Put the damn spoiler alert, no one will die in flagging the damn spoiler. Lack of respect for those who haven't played the current update yet.

best thing to do is stay out of threads unless you are up to date, its what i do. I had to ask a question and had to dm ace because i was too scared to get spoilers in here lol

Thing is though. If Elaine did it so she could share her part with you. Then there will be nothing to share if she doesn't get the house...

1. Wrong! There's always... the load button! I expect I will have to revisit that chapter anyway. There's GOT to be something in the girls I picked that will make me change my mind.
2. There will be no need to share if I already have the house.

Share her part of the inheritance. The money she will get IF you give her the house. If she doesn't get the house, no money to be possible shared.

 

[hellomr1]

how many and what are lewd scenes in the new update ? I just want to make sure I have not missed anything

[Arigon]

I started a fresh playthrough. Total manwhore as usual...... but I keep second guessing myself. If I try to put old man Arigon into young man MC, and choose wisely, then it is not realistic. Young man Arigon was a manwhore too, but not nearly as successful as the MC of course. So there are certain things that are satisfying about just doing that.... But....

Young man Arigon (YMA) had a prick of a father, who left him nothing when he died, but his father had married one of YMA's ex girlfriends from fucking high school. So yeah I had fucked my actual dad's wife. *his 9th...

Therefore Elaine is always given as a seduction, as is Bella.

Monica is kind of grossing me out for the first time ever. Jenna is the first choice sister, but Katie is a choice of course.

Lilly.... fuck I wish I had met my Lilly as young as the MC. <My Lilly is different but sorta not been married for a lot of years now> So she is always a choice.

Debbie... how can you not love Little Debbie????

Zarah is a better choice in some ways than Monica who is grossing me out, but Zarah this play through is doing little for me.

Angel, I have always been a fan of.. so far....

Wanda,, truthfully I never indulge past making her my bitch.

Jolina.... fuck.... She is so tempting....... Jenna Jolina Lilly Bella gaaaaah

Theresa well Tommy is a shitty brother in my opinion.... but meh


It is all fun and games until early on I have to make a non binding choice of money or girls.
Then it hits me.
Then I feel....regret maybe?

Good game.
Peace

Fuck the girls, with money, beach house, big house, car, you can get a new collection of girls for an spin off game

 

[blaackstarr]

I'm just goin balls to the wall manwhore, until everything comes crashing down. See how long I can weasel my outta some of these situations. I wasn't able to get outta the Katie convo about Monica clean so I just decided not to tell her. This is gonna end horribly, lol.

In no way was i saying a harem is a Kinetic novel. For me, if harem is in the game it makes most choices a lot easier, this is all personal opinion and no one is right, but for me there are hard choices in these games. yeah sure you can go back and change a choice if you want or you can have multiple playthroughs but i still find some choices hard. A lot of games i only do 1 playthrough, some i have a couple saves but its rare for me. for me it adds more to it.


when it comes to picking the girls you like if harem is in the game for me personally it takes away all the hard decisions regarding that, even if i decide to just have 1 i know harem is in it so it changes it.

I dont want to start up this convo again though i was just replying because you took some of the things i said different to what i meant. end of the day its all up to personal preference, some games i like harems, some i dont. This game for me is perfect how it is, the writing is great, the decisions are hard, never did i think or feel like it was a harem we was just allowed to take longer to chose the girl we want.. and also if you pick right you can most likely end up with more than 1 girl anyway.

The genesis of the conversation was Avaron1974 said...

You may as well just play kinetic novels then. No point adding choices if they don't go anywhere.

Devs aren't making these to showcase porn scenes, they are making adult games with stories.

... in response to someone stating they always wondered why harem content wasn't standard to games so that people could witness all the hard work a developer puts into a game instead of a limited amount, and in the original non edited version of the post, Avaron ended the post by saying and i quote "If you want porn fuck off to pornhub." which has since been edited out by a moderator.

So that is how the conversation started that was the whole point of me getting into the conversation was to challenge the notion that harem = kinetic novel and their rude conduct towards other people. when i did challenge this non sensical position Avaron went on and on when they though harem should or shouldn't be added to the game. Which had fuck all to do with my post. And completely ignored there hostile attack on someone's likes.

You jumped into the conversation and then claim I took things out of context. Okay fair enough but I just assumed you took your position because you knew Avaron made that claim and your were adding support to said claim by your expressing of your feelings toward harem and choice. I could not take your position any other way then I did because the whole point of the conversation you joined was a challenge to the claim Harem = kinetic novel. And you didn't make any caveats with regards to your position and the original premise that Avaron1974 made.

This is text so this likely sounds like i am annoyed or belittling you, neither is true. I can assume now that you had no idea that you were joining a conversation that took the hardline stance that harem = kinetic novel but as you can see from the quote that was exactly what avaron was claiming so i assumed anyone joining the conversation with a similar position to avaron shared their position unless they directly stated otherwise and that is why i responded the way i did.

You missed the point AGAIN. A ridiculous amount of thread content (Not yours by the way) has been whining about this not being a Harem story. The Devs and many others, Avaron1974 included, have replied over and over that this was never an option and that the story is a different vein, path, genre, whatever. Avaron1974 saw with much clarity and release of angst (she never does this) that is if that is what a person wants all the time then it is a Kinetic novel. Think about it. If the same story line is reproduced over and over just changing some text and pictures it is nothing like a game of choices or a story of choices. It is the same result and therefore a Kinetic Novel like dozens, if not hundreds, of others. This game was not intended that way. For those posters to be that (here comes my cheap shot) mono brow that they are incapable of discerning this they may need an angst laden rebuttal. IMO.

Note: To my knowledge, moderators do not waste their time editing posts. They delete posts. If the post was edited the poster did it. Just sayin'.

Mods edit posts quite a lot.

The only time I ever edit my posts is to correct spelling mistakes. If I type something, I mean it and stand by it, don't feel the need to correct myself.

If I told someone to fuck off to pornhub then that's exactly what I meant to type.

Also.......

If the end of the story is the same, it is still not kinetic if there are different paths which lead to that end. Kinetic novels, by definition offer no choice at all and are simply like real life novels. A kinetic novel offers little to no choice at all. If you can play the game a second time, and take a different path which results in a different story, even with the same ending, than it is not a kinetic novel. It may or may not be a boring game with very little incentive to play it again, but it will not be a kinetic novel.
