I'm glad BD's doing better, but I gotta say, I've never been a fan of him redoing week 1 as that's taken a lot of focus off from new content and in turn, pushing him into a corner.
I don't know, I think it's quite a good idea.

You see that in a lot of games where the dev hadn't quite figured out their style yet at the beginning, especially with a dev's first game, and then so much of the aesthetic changes as you go along. I guess you don't really care when you play it update by update but I imagine many devs want a polished product at the end.

an other thing to consider is the fact that your first episode/chapter/hour/day.... is a dev's advertisment of their skill for a new player. It is and always will remain the most important part of a game to bring in new patrons and bolster interest in new players. From a patreon developer's stand point it makes sens to always have an eye on the begining of the game. In traditional game development the first level is often the last made and also (but for other reasons) the most throught outly tested.

I'll just come right on and say it the way I feel; this was wildly disappointing. I think it might even have been more disappointing to me than Cyberpunk was, because realistically at least THAT game had the decency to disappoint me within the first hour or so.

Specifically; the 2 most obvious primary love interests are Jamie & Shauna. For there to be HOURS of gameplay with scene after scene after scene of anybody and everybody, to get to the "end" of this and have those 2 not ONCE having been "really" in a 3-some with the MC is insanity. Even more if you go with the trans-option. What in the actual hell is the point of having M/F/T 3-ways if the total number of dicks in holes never exceeds 1.....I genuinely don't even know how to explain how massively discouraging it was to get to the end still nothing. Every bloody scene with those 2 I was like "ok, progress, maybe something will happen next time..." And not a god damn thing happens...

You do realize it's been 10 days in game right (albeit busy days)? Maybe a little patience and it will happen......

Well since there is no "gameplay" in this adult visual novel I reckon anyone would be disappointed with the gameplay as it doesn't exist.

It's like going to McDonald's and complaining about steaks. There is no McSteak, thankfully.

Something will happen eventually but yeah, like HornyyPussy said, it's barely been 10 days, even though some things move really fast, and some really slow.
At this point the MC has been in a relationship with Jamie for a bit, but the relationship with Shauna has barely started, and the 3 of them are still figuring out boundaries.
Even though I would personally like for Jamie and Shauna to do anything they want together, BD also has to account for players that don't like any of that, and players who go with the non-trans route.
It'll be a bit, but there is progress being made.

Clicking on choices IS gameplay, ignoring the fact that he's not using that term at all in that context which renders your entire comment moot.

The comparison was made to cyberpunk so my point was there is no way to compare the two... one is a game the other is an adult visual novel.

No, A comparison was made to Cyberpunk, a reference to how big a letdown it was, and said reference didn't include anything about "gameplay."

I took the post to say the poster was disappointed in "gameplay" Like they was with cyberpunk.. my point of view is that avn's dont have "gameplay" as most of the world uses the term.

We disagree. I also feel we are entering into off topic territory.

You guys are assuming that gameplay was what disappointed him in Cyberpunk. Is it a fair assumption? Sure, but it's also completely irrelevant because the cause was never in comparison, only the amount of disappointment. The reason why he was disappointed with Cyberpunk and the reason why he was disapponted with WVM have nothing to do with each other, thus talking about WVM's gameplay is moot.

Yo!

(Reminder that this is a Norwegian Black Metal band's frontwoman with a rebellious personality type.)
Simple poll where we will pick out a hairstyle. Do not concern yourself too much with the color as I just alternated between a red/blonde as I know I will be picking between those colors.

I do have a character created already but I didn't want to show her for this post as we'll tweak her a bit and I kind of want the hair to influence the face more than I want the face to influence the hair.
I didn't have a mannequin so we're rocking with a robot to showcase the hair.

Next week I'll show the model with the chosen hair and we'll pick a name before tweaking her a bit.
(Message me or comment some name suggestions if you have any)
(Also there are a few clipping issues shown that are caused by the robot's geoshell that will not be an issue on the actual model.)

Just mentioning a subjective comparison of a disappointment did not make much sense, because how can anyone apart from himself be able to put that into relation?
