What in the world are you talking about?

You don't have to start over, I never said anything about not updating the story either? There will always be more story content in every update.

Are you talking about the lack of an abolitionist movement? Or do you mean you would prefer if this story was all about enslaving people instead of freeing people? In that case, this game has never been that, and never will. The story is planned to have a happy ending.

You're also threatening to quit playing over just 1 update... 1 out of 15 so far, and many many more to go.

Perhaps I misread your post. I thought you said all of your w was going to be back at the beginning of the game. Maybe I was having a bad day when I was afraid that you were going to mess up my favorite game. I want to emphasize that again. Harem Hotel is my favorite game bar none. I tell other developers that they should look at what you've done to see the gold standard.

My favorite part of my favorite game is the master/slave relationship aspect. Part of me fears that you intend to remove that from the game or curtail it to a great extent. Why? Jin was essentially removed from the game when the MC did the right thing for her. She stands there and says that life is rough when she used to be a favorite character of mine. I'm drawing a blank on names because I'm a man in his late 40s in and out of the hospital but the programmer girl is my overall favorite and I look forward to seeing Lin f ree to some extent.

Fact is that I would move into Manager Smitty's life if I could. I can get a little too emotional afraid someone might mess with my vacation home. Please accept my apology for going too far. Obviously, I could always play version 15 of the game for years if I really wanted to do so. I am not such a newbie that I couldn't preserve my current game and try the new version. You are an artist who has given us this great world and you deserve a measure of trust in return.

Thank you for replying and helping relieve my fears at least a bit.

Every update is guaranteed to give every main character at least 1 story event. v0.16 is actually the exception where I state in the post that it is a balance update. Main characters like Lin and Ashley will get no story this update as they have the most, and other mains will get extra story. This has been requested for a long time so I figured I would dedicate at least one update to some balancing.

Jin's only content was sex in the dungeon, now she has story and is getting a lot more content. As this game is in development, you will experience the game in a way it was never intended to be experienced, since the game is intended to be experienced in it's completed form. This means there will be awkward moments like Jin feeling like shit for a long time in your game, when in reality, I just haven't developed her next event yet and would be over much quicker.

I am not sure if by "master/slave relationship" you mean an abusive power dynamic, that remains locked to slave route content within Nia and Sylvia's story.

Side characters will also be getting story of course, and there are more plans as well. The post above lists the new mechanic coming in v0.16, which is an optional expansion to the early game.

I think they are meaning when you said you'll be adding early story content to the game so it might be worth replaying from the start. "

You may want to wait until v0.16 is done. It will include many new early game content"
