Update is great, but... stop this Runey. You know what Im talking about. You are showing to us very serious and sometimes even cruel situations, but MC is always like "I want to stay out if this, I cant do anything". He can. He already got more then enough connections to start act. He cant always stay behind and do nothing, leting girls to bear all the weight of social problems. Give us some actions, damn it! We realy are already past half a game, we are already past the point when you tryed to show people that everyone must do something for changes to happen. This is the actual point where MC must start to act or he will start to lose everything and everyone he have. MC must begin to use his money, his conections and his power. And yes, he already have enough power to use. The only problem is his fear of action.

Heh, yes, you must have noticed that I already refer to MC as "he". The problem is that I already stoped to associate him with me. It is because MC is too passive. I never was a guy who would sit and wait when something bad happens.

There is no difference who is MC's enemy. Cornwall, Mafia, the guy who owns a school and have connections in high political places, Trenero (yes, Im sure he is not our ally... when time will come he will just force his daughters to leave MC's hotel and then he will help other MC's enemyes to ruin his life) or the world with it social principles itself. I will repeat myself again, MC must begin to act. Or I am out of here. If story is serious, then it must be serious always, not just partialy, and MC's actions must be sireous too.

P.S. I still like this game and, as I mentioned, update is realy great. The only thing that bothers me is MC always staying out of everything.

'MC' isn't a hero, he's not even the main character. He's the player character that allows you to interact with the main characters.

That said, he is also just a normal guy who owns a hotel. His only super power is being supportive and being the glue that keeps people together (does a big cock count?). Things the player could do in real life if they wanted to, unlike many of the things the main characters do.

But I understand you want the player character to be more active, he's certainly not afraid though. This is a process and can't begin immediately. The moment where you had the option to shake Nia's hand in Maria's story is a good example of MC having the option to take things more seriously. We are moving out of that transitional period for many of the main characters, where they go from dealing with more personal problems to more wide spread problems. This will in turn cause the player character to act with the main characters. But I also wanted to make a point to show that the player character isn't a super hero that looks at the world and believes he can save it alone. He will be a better leader in the future, that is certain.

Yes, MC is normal human, but also he have money. Not a lot, but at least something. I realy do not undarstand why he cant do a minimum. At least making his hotel more safe place is something he Can do. He can buy more security sistems (and event with Sylvia in the garden showed very good that this a time to make some upgrades) and one or two security androids. If this is not alowed for a hotel owner to buy some androids for protection purposes... then ok, there always an option to try to find something like this on black market (MC already broke many laws... it will be just another one). He could offer more help to Nia, not just 200$ on some "consumables". At this point of game on my not moded safe I already have some hundred thousands of money. Spending at least 4-5 thousands could be good to make sure that she is equiped properly. Also I dont undarstand why he turned his back on Jia asking for help. Ofcourse, to kill someone is not an option, he is just a normal guy. But he could at least try to do something, not leaving everything on someone else (yeah, Nia in the shadows... she cant do everything on her own). There is a lot more things that just a normal hotel manager could do. Yes, he is supporting character, but why he cant at least support properly?...

Im not speaking about "being a hero". No one is a "super hero". But there is always something that normal guy like our MC could do. I dont ask to make him overthrow all corrupted politicians on his own or changing the system completely. Im talking about normal actions. He is not just owner of big cock, he is a man who took responsibility about many girls with theyr problems. So some actions would be great to follow his responsibility.

Like I said, the player character will take a more active role in directly helping, but we're in a transitionary period. Things are already heading in that direction, and I can think of a few examples from v0.14 where MC has used his money or helped in some active way.

Yes. He could help Nia more than just buying her consumables, but that's not where the story is right now. We literally just got to the point where she's willing to trust you to show you these things in v0.14. Getting to the player character being All In isn't going to happen over night, that's not realistic. Please give me time to develop these things.

Owning hundreds of thousands is definitely abnormal. But as for why MC and Lin couldn't help Jia, it's explained in that event during and after that moment.

Ah... Ok, I will keep looking for next updates, after all Im realy interested where this story will go. As I told many times before, it is your game and it is only up to you to decide how to develope it. And, definetely, you are a master, your game is very unique. Thank you for reply and thank you for your hardwork :)

P.S. Any my complaints are there only because I realy like your game and story you created :)

You good Runey, Zex just doesn't know good storytelling and is taking this harem game too serious. I hate Player Character (PC) is kinda helpless, but I understand that devaluates the MCs personal growth and actions. If Zex wants action so bad, then there are other projects that fulfill that hero role.
