@CheekyGimp i laughed my ass off with those jokes XD

 

[Jack-ish]

Disappointing update. How long to the next one?

 

[Lucifer_Morningstar]

I agree. Devs tend to drag out that one character to the point you don't even care by the time you can get them. There should be a limit to building suspense. Get them sooner, then get creative with the story to keep people interested

Same happened with Tracy in DOD. Great things were expected but the too much buildup killed that scene as it was just simple.

 

[SebaRomanow]

One of the most engaging games with a well-written and interesting storyline, and characters that we actually care for <3

 

[Jimmybob]

No Monica content this update?

 

[TiffanyMonroe]

Whelp looks like I'm staying home today.

As always the Katie scene is the absolute highlight of the update :heartcoveredeyes:
I kinda feel bad for the rest of the crew, but the dynamic between MC and her is by the far the best, no contention for me. Wanda's and Zarah's submission were also super hot though. I love this game.

Couldn't see the score at the end of the update as I got two error screens, think I am not alone on that?
Also the waitress shuts you down (for now) no matter what you do?

This is definitely one of my fave games, and Katie is definitely one my fave characters.

However, I'm still concerned about the in-game pacing, and I wonder what would happen for the long run. We've had 6 episodes (8 updates?) but we're still pretty much on Day 3 (or 4?). It takes about 3 updates for 1 in-game day. I'm not complaining about the amount of content because there's TONS of content. I'm just wondering what the goal is, and how quickly we might get there in-game time wise.

For example, we've had quite a few things with Katie and the goal seems to be the party, but the party is only Day 4. I assume there's going to be more content after party, but it feels weird to have done so much while only still on Day 3. Same with Jenna who has been pretty much locked inside the room for years. Suddenly much more body positive after only 2 days.

So it feels we're moving really fast content-wise, but we're moving really slowly in-game time-wise. I really hope the dev can write new additional storyline for the existing characters (especially the main 3 Monica, Katie, Jenna) and not making new characters just to introduce new storyline. We also have quite a lot of side characters already. Zarah is probably a borderline main/side character, but there are also Katie's 2 friends, the coffee shop girl, the model agency receptionist, and Wanda. We'll also get Katie's rival too at the party. That's already 10 girls. I'd really prefer to have great storyline than too many thin storylines.

Still a super good game though.

Fantastic Game!!!! The writing is excellent and the pacing is spot on.

Same happened with Tracy in DOD. Great things were expected but the too much buildup killed that scene as it was just simple.

I disagree. I enjoyed the conclusion to Tracy's storyline a lot.

 

[Deleted member 780468]

I'm new to this game. can anyone give me the full walkthrough of this game, please?

TIA

I actually kind of agree. I think the pacing content-wise seems alright, but if you look at the time that has passed AND the progression of things with the family, it does seem all happens a bit fast.

Maybe it wouldn't have been a bad idea to move some things to another day and make more days in general.
Not the content nor the size of the updates is wrong, it's just the timeline that seems a bit short.

The dev leaves the last episode out, because he wants us to try it on our own first, but if you run a thread specific search after walkthrough, you should find one.

Oh what the hell, I'm feeling generous today and did it for you, just remember sometimes running a search is a lot faster than asking the same question dozens have already asked.
