It's a fucking sandbox, you go through the same thing a hundred times without any progress. Damn it, this is unbearable. I already deleted the game from my PC, but I reinstalled it, I wanted to see the progress in the game of this update. But, as always, it just gets boring for everyone.
I wonder, guys, who likes the sandbox?

try this and let me know. its says its public so you should be able to access
Fuck, bro, thanks! You satisfied my curiosity, I couldn't see anything in this sandbox. I don't understand developers who create such games in which the player, even with great difficulty and time spent, cannot see the story that the developer wants to unpack.
I hope in the future you will do the same for new content so that you can still see it.

the test version has the same content as the platinum tier version?
It's the same content. Only difference is the visual style and the grinding.
Bronze Tier and Free user get tier bonus 0 and pretty much have to grind up to 200% more than the platinum tier which has tier bonus 4 (gold tier = tier bonus 3; silver tier = tier bonus 2).

it sure seems there's way less stuff this update - heck i havent even seen a functional cookie store section on either DP or LP play; i wonder if some amelia trigger is bugged or something - it's just the same day in day out, with the only real progress seeming to happen with nora quests (tekken gameing), and the old melissa-mina thing.

Like how are people accessing these things? I hear ppl talking about cookie store, but there's no longer a business app on phone. I hear in game notifications on investments, but the entire upgrades page is gone from the computer. Nothing makes any sense.

Hard to tell ya as I did just a few short game sessions, trying to bypass some restrictions.
From the scripts I was reading the business app on phone is locked (hidden) unless you met certain criteria, like expertise level, owning the cookie store and ramen cart and the amount of used items.

Going to write down some thoughts since the developer apparently still visits this thread. This is not to troll him but to give some feedback on the game that hopefully lead to its improvement.

There's 2 big issues with the game currently (not counting the bugs, those can be ironed out with time and experience). The first is just how incredibly binary the game is as far as I have seen. You have all these LI stats: destiny, power, love, corruption, disruptor + the player stats like agility and so on. Except the only one that matters is the power stat. High power is light path, low power is dark path. There is no nuance that you'd expect, so you have to minmax your choices. Case in point is Mina. If you are on the dark path and do not go all in on handing her on a silver platter to Ted, you will seemingly eventually run out of chances to get enough disruptor points to advance her storyline. That also cockblocks you from Melissa's thread. Might be a bug, might be a feature, either way it's disappointing. All these stats just to get on one of two roads.

The other issue is the grind. Obnoxious grid is never good because it means your game has nothing else to stand on and so you try to get the player to invest more time through the grind. And this game has it even worse because the grind is coercive to get you to pay money that the product isn't worth. As much as I understand the developer's need to get paid for all the work, I have never bought a single game that I was 'forced' to. My steam library has quite a few games from here, all bought as my thanks for the developer's hard work in making a good product. Never because it came down to "pay or be miserable". After a while as a player I'll just choose to not play at all.

Since this is a test build and they are theoretically still early in, it's fair to give this a few more tries in the future. Perhaps a lot of what I'd like to see just hasn't been implemented yet. After that we'll see.

At the beginning of the game, does anyone know what the hell I should do after the first day of work at the new secretary's office? The next day I try to interact in the office to continue with the story, but I spend my time walking around the offices without being able to do anything, I can only interact with the icon of a briefcase to earn some dollars.

I played it for about ten mins, but got bored, yes it has bugs but they're not a deal breaker, it's just so dull, the female partner is smoking hot but nothing happens, the music grates and I hate sandbox and the fact that you have to go thru the walking to/from.

Why after all this time is there STILL not a single NTR scene in the entire game???
There are, there's
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Unfortunately in order to see these in game it'll take hours upon hours of "gameplay", desperately hoping you don't get a bug that halts all progress. I didn't manage to get into chapter 2 last time due to bugs.

Also, I'm personally most interested in Ava/Liam, Pavani/(probably Andy), Amelia and Fang NTR, but it'll probably never see those in my lifetime.
