This game is unique in its own way and there is no point in focusing on one type of relationship. It should be enjoyable for all adult players to play.

Therefore, if the author can combine several types of relationships, that will be great. For everyone, not just those who love one type of relationship.

But, taking into account the fact that the game is supported financially mainly only by fans of F/F relationships, other types of relationships are unlikely to appear in the next versions of the game. And if they do appear, it will be in a minimal volume.

This is the situation we have with this issue so far.

That, however, is a developer choice generated problem, by limiting support to Patreon. Releasing the game on different platforms (at least on platforms that do not require a constant upkeep with payments), would generate more income and in turn, more feedback.

Especially if you consider that there are countries where paying on Patreon is not a popular option, simply because Patreon is not a well-known platform - I would never pay there, personally, simply cause it's not well spread or known in my country, hence I will not trust it with my card.

While I understand issues, work-life balance and limitations, we do have to keep in mind that there are more likely to be solutions than not.

It makes sense to stop the discussion here, but there is still a relationship between the objectivity of the surveys and the limitations of Patreon. The poll results for many games could be completely different.

I'm sorry, I responded before I read this.

see, I think the reason it now mostly has supporters of F/F is because thats what the author decided to focus on for most part. Ik plenty of people who gave up on the patreon because it drifted away from M/F, but I’m pretty sure if the author decided to focus more on it there will be new fans and the audience it appeals to will be broader.

its not like I am asking for something new to be implemented, the creator knew how to balance the relationships well before, but at the end somehow all the existing male charas just.. exist and they are not needed then if theres no purpose.

I also dont agree with only doing what the fans want. A lot of games fall victim to that and then become very stale and boring. The problem is that all these new F/F relationship sort of lack uniqueness and sort of are starting to feel like copy paste of each other.

If we analyze most 18+ games, then, in fact, the only difference is in the plot, style of drawing backgrounds and characters. Well, the presence or absence of appropriate or inappropriate mini-games.

The set of interaction options is the same everywhere; there may be only minor differences due to the characteristics of the characters. Since, in any case, for human-like characters the list of combinations is limited.

Therefore, the main difference between these thousands of games: plot, mini-games, design style. The rest is more or less the same.

I generally turned off 18+ with monsters in the settings and play this game as a fun RPG, with an interesting and slightly strange plot, and a wonderful graphic and musical atmosphere. Therefore, the gender of the characters, with this perception, is secondary. Because I am attracted by the atmosphere of the game, Granoria itself and its features, history. Well written world.
