At the moment it is mainly a sandbox. If it's not clicking for you yet, I would advise waiting a couple years until the main story content is in for a more linear experience and more of a feeling of progression.I don't get this gameloop, is there something to do besides gym->job->bar/movie? Like I get that you can go to beach sometimes, but it still feels very repetitive. Work is also mostly the same, even when you go on demonstrations a lot of them just play the same one scene over and over (without any sexscenes even). Am I missing something?
If interested, you can check out the scenes available here:

And achievement hunting is a good way of seeing the game's current content.
But it won't click for everyone, and there is still a lot of development to be done.
