I played old versions of the game and at one point a streamer was tracking the MC down and attacking him. His artificial housemate was saving his hide last minute. I recently started a new game and didn't see that point coming. So question is "Was this part removed?"
She still does hint that she is more suited for house defense than a 'mutt' would though, so maybe i just didn't reach the part where she proves it.
It goes without saying, because i've been following this game for quite some time. But i love it by the way. And i'm glad you're still updating it around here.
