I'm starting a new game and after the MC moves, do we ever get to see Alexis (besides text message)?

On one hand, these games look simple but there is a lot to them. The art is most of it, the writing has to be at least good enough to keep your attention and be understandable (some games are just brutal in this regard).
On one hand, Braindrop has made a very good AVN, not perfect, and I still do not understand some of the choices and the art direction (girls looking like ducks, sliders out of proportion, some character models (Jamie, others) are just plain ugly and definitely not attractive). It was not done for realism, either, as Jamie is said to be beautiful and sexy. Most games have every girl looking like a 7-9, which is far from realistic.
On the other hand, Braindrop has promised much and underdelivered more and more often lately. Especially promising a big event, like a basketball game in an AVN about a popular basketball player, and then not even including it! If I was making one of these games, I would likely have the next chapter complete/near complete before I released the chapter before it. This way if I said I was coming out with the next update on April 5th (birthday of my son, used as an example), it would happen unless something drastic happened to me or someone else major working on the project.
I used to make custom ROMS for the HTC EVO phone (Azrael X was the name of my ROM), and my ROM was pretty popular on XDA developers (I actually ran into people I met who were using my ROM, which was pretty cool!) When a new version would come out, I would have it done usually a week or two before release (unless it was a very small update). This gave me time to test it and make sure everything was working before release. I NEVER overpromised and was late with a release. If I said it was coming out on April 5th, it would be ready to go by April 1st. My point of bringing that up, it is not impossible to meet deadlines but you should never say, "Hey, in one month you are going to have <this and that>, I hope you enjoy it!" Then, when that month comes around, crickets or a small update containing nothing of the sort!
Writers block, big or bad life events, disagreements or issues with team members (artists, writer, etc.), lack of ideas where to go with the story, legal problems, general laziness, and etc. These are all reasons for delays in AVN games, but Braindrop needs to realize the importance of not constantly disappointing their fans and supporters. NEVER a good idea to do that and especially to have that reputation, which they seem to be start to earn.
Even when successful, you only continue being successful when you are supported and keep the product delivered to those who can very much make or break you.

Scamdrop is still lurking here!
His profile recently went to private, and I remember very recently, it was public. So he’s here watching us.
hope he knows how much of a loser scam artist everyone thinks he is

Thought I'd try this again, even though I'm not sure I remember why I quit playing it lol (I think it was how every conversation was a motivational speech. It was getting too cringy). Though I'm confused on some stuff. Been a while, so bare with me.

I'm sure he's here just getting ideas on how to fill in that black box for the MC's head. So far I think we have Howard the Duck, Spock Rock, Cabeza Robot, Steve Urkel, and Willem Dafoe as front runners.

BD is reworking the first week of the game. These characters you mentioned were introduced in this rework, but since it hasn't been released yet (and probably won't be for a long time), it ends up being confusing.

Thanks for that. That's a really weird way to do things. Guess I'll wait for the rework to eventually come out then before trying this again. Appreciate it.

damn i dont think so when i remember right there was only a text message from her that she will attend the school too in the future but so far nothing from her (was really a shitty move that she was so far only avaivable on the cheating path) im so far only on the jamie/shauna path and rejected all too see who it will play out but i really liked her and would add her but even when she comes back after all this time (realtime not the ingame month....) i bet she would look totally different and her personality will that of a mobile hole standing around and making a duckface
I am fully on board with this dream.

It's not the eyes themselves, it's the spacing. The area between the eyes and eyebrows keeps getting wider and taller. It started with the lawyer and has spread. If it keeps getting worse I may have to get and learn DAZ so I can make my own renders.

I ignored the game before update.
I just give a shot to see what's happening but I'm already disappointed.
Its good to have a update than nothing. But problem is update is suck. Dialogues are worse comparing before. Faces are more hideous now. Most girls have hourglass bodies.
I know both are suck but if have to choose between them I would choose ditlos censorship over black box.
Game's theme is basketball but very little part of the non existing story.
My rating on update is 2/5. Could have better, after all this time must have better.
Until next update enjoy excuses.

But if not for those black boxes, we would not have had the artistic beauties others, and myself have posted.

When the game you developed goes from a suggestive slow burn to a urinary tract infection, its time to call it a day.
