Yeh, I think Catherine is deffo one of the most interesting girls, since a lot of her snobbiness is clearly a deflection from her current situation, I really feel bad for her. That's part of why I like that the MC seems to be lightening up on her a bit, or at least holding her and Hannah equally responsible for their squabbles. Honestly, during their joint punishment, when he had them both stand so close together, I half-expected him to tell them to kiss and make up! Not that I would've complained about seeing them kiss...
Just finished the update, love the story progression in this one!
This update, it feels like we were a bit less nasty towards Catherine, which I'm a fan of, since imo in previous updates it sometimes felt a bit unnecessarily cruel towards her.
Personally, I hope the coming updates will allow us to make a bit more progress with Annabelle, since she's cute, and I want to know what her whole deal is. I also hope that, at some point, we'll get to sway Chloe to our side, because she's hot.
One thing that crossed my mind, at some point I do hope to see more dialogue choices get expanded beyond just positive and negative.
As an example, I'll refer specifically to the cheerleader beach trip. When Travis asks you to get on his shoulders, your options are either to get on his shoulders, or to just not get on anyone's shoulders. It'd be nice if you could instead be like "Oh, thanks, but I wanted to get on Luke's shoulders" or something like that, y'know?
I understand that that might be harder to implement, so imo even if that were to happen, it should be fairly low on a list of priorities, as it doesn't really....change anything.
Though, I do still somewhat wish that, when Tracy or Kenzie approach the subject of men, you could claim to be more interested in women, even if only to see their reactions. Doubly so if you can express that you're interested in them specifically.
The Nathan events were a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one! It was a fun route, and even if you don't try to pursue him romantically, it does make the world feel more active! I think some of the club-based side characters having random events was a great addition as well, for the same reason!
Though, man, I wish that when Kenzie is trying to get us to do slutty shit, we could tell her that we're a lesbian, and be all like "I'm not going to fuck this guy. Now, you on the other hand..."
Also, smh my head, still no Yakuza queen storyline 😔
Something I will say, is that for awhile I actually wasn't into the way it seemed to be going towards a harem. Not because I dislike harems, but simply because it hadn't really been talked about, so it was difficult to not feel as if it were scummy to smooch Suzu, and then go out with Miko and smooch her.
Then the beach happened on Day 9, and Miko directly said she was chill with it, and Suzu is a cuckqueen so that's cool!
I'm on day 7 right now, and holy fuck this game is great.
Honestly, going into it, I expected like.....a decent mystery with passable girls. But oml, the mysteries and writing is genuinely so good.
I think Suzu is probably the best example of that, when she was initially introduced, I was thinking "bratty pink haired chick, I'm into it" but now I must protect her at all costs, she is too pure for this world.
I am so hyped to see where the rest of this story goes!
Edit: There's so many moments with some of the other girls that seem comedic, and then Suzu is in the background looking so sad, you can't keep doing this to my emotions :')
Thanks for the detailed response! All of that is good to hear!
In regards to wondering who might all get lewd scenes, I suppose I was wondering about things like your other coworkers in the Cafe, teachers, Kate's mum, less important club members, mmo things, that kinda stuff. I understand if a lot of that can't be revealed yet, but I'd appreciate any answer you could potentially give!
As always, this game is great! Just a couple things that crossed my mind though!
1. I never went through much of the yearbook club stuff until just now but geez it's a rollercoaster, went from really wanting our girl to fuck Mr. Davis because he seemed too good for this world, to finding him suspicious as fuck, and then going back to trust him, I'm so excited to see where this goes! Also the Alice cameo was neat, still hoping to be able to do something lewd with her, as well as August from track, cuz tomboys make me weak.
2. It'd be kinda cool if, on the Kate path, after Harper gets fired from the cafe, you can eventually stumble across the Bar, and learn that she now works there and is basically prostituted to the customers, like what happens to you and Kate if you go full corruption.
3. I still really hope the Yakuza storyline continues outside of the Matt stuff, because I think it'd be super sick to end up in cahoots with the mafia, and actually kinda join them.
4. I noticed that the character routes tell you when you've finished their current content, but I don't think the other events do? For instance, Kenzie, Alice, and club routes just.....end, and I don't recall there being an indication that you'd seen everything currently in the game, like with the Karaoke.
I was also wondering, just how many characters are intended to eventually have lewd scenes?
The new update is still awesome, as expected!
Only finally got around to playing the new release, and I honestly loved it!
I honestly can't wait for more with the Kate romance storyline, because it's so cute, and I love everything about it, and I want these two to be happy <3 <3
Also, I hope the mafia plotline continues, I want to end up as queen of the yakuza by the end of this, with my adorable, petite gf at my side.
Though, I am once again hoping that Alice gets lewded soon, because tomboys. I am also hoping that August gets lewded soon, because goth tomboys.
I gotta say, with the way Widow's route was panning out, it really feels like it'll culminate in the gang all uh.....giving her what she wants, so to speak. I mean, just saying, her fantasy involved three holes being filled, and like.....between the MC, McCree, Hanzo, and Genji there's more than just three......
I remember playing this ages ago on Newgrounds, but at the time I had a crap laptop so the audio lagged to all hell. Anyways, now, with a new and improved machine, and no more lag, this is certifiably a 10/10. The voice acting is great, the writing and lore is better than hentai has any right to be, and speaking of hentai, the art is just amazing!
There's really only two things I have to say/ask.
1. How long do you think it'll be until Girl Mode?
2. Good god, please, please, PLEASE tell me that, at some point, we will get to fuck Dr. Blankenship while she wears the witch costume, because hot DAMN it's sexy!
Dude, it's a single boob grope, and your character can almost immediately stop it by decking him across the face. If you weren't expecting any potential non-con stuff on a game that literally presents itself as having Corruption, Prostitution, and Bimbofication, then that's a you problem, and you should probably start wearing a helmet from now on.
I'm trying to recall any unavoidable non-con scenes, and drawing a blank. In my experience playing this game, every non-con, assault, rape, etc scene was always something you could get out of. The dream sequences have absolutely no effect on the rest of the game, so if you don't like the content in them, it's pretty easy to just.......hit ctrl and skip them.
You pretty much just need to choose the more depraved, sexual, and morally questionable actions. Wandering the city, I've found, is a pretty good way to get events that boost your corruption. As are decisions you make at work, at the Bakery it's a good idea to be extremely submissive towards Keith belittling you to get your corruption up, and at the Cafe doing the sexual favors for bigger tips gets it up pretty well, in my experience.
