I enjoyed the stupidity of the plot. The MC is unrealistically rich. All of the supporting characters are brain-dead. Cool. I was hoping there would be choices to see if you wanted to get back with the ex-wife or find a new love interest to lord over your former family. But the updates are too short with no substance.

I have a lot of patience. Not enough to waste on this. I'll bow out for 20 or so years. Hopefully there's at least an hour of new content. I don't like criticizing developers, but there was no reason to release an update so dearth of content, that when it ended I thought I was being pranked.

I know its not the best but anyone who wants Mc sex scene Just follow whats written. After going to the office for the first time and many scenes later we choose
1) Looked towards the door
2)You said you were my girlfriend right?

And there you are sex scene with cynthia.
Just like my reply if you found it useful.

The problem here is that the plot is taken/copied on a 1/1 scale from a novel, the only things changed are the names and last names. I too thought at one point he might change something with choices, but no that will not happen. He is following the script to a T as far as I can tell. And as someone who has read the said Novel, I can tell you right now, that thing is furiously frustrating. The MC is someone not only insanely rich but also seems to be very smart and learned from the best, the guy is pretty much almost the best in anything and everything... except when it comes to the women around him, he makes some of the most dumbest decisions you can think of, he keeps falling back on some of the women who only want to use him for his money and keeps on betraying him, this man has been cucked so many times it is not even funny.

Worst of all, it makes no sense, the guy apparently has top tier skills in psychiatry and reading people, EXCEPT when it comes to those who are or will be going to fuck him over and when he GENUINELY finds someone who actually cares for him and wants to be with him he freaking fks up.. and it is not a one off either, it happens many times. So if you are excepting anything to get better, do not keep your hopes up.

Also since he is following a script, meaning he has no need for writers and their updates take freaking forever while only adding barely any gameplay. It means this is being done on purpose.

I started to read the link that was provided. It was exactly as you stated. A word for word recreation with the names changed & a couple minor details adjusted. I don't mind a lack of adult scenes if the content is interesting. TO this point there's a HJ with Marley & a rape scene with Chynthia. Neither of which are particularly entertaining.

I applaud you for finishing the novel. At the rate the developer is operating at, it would take the rest of our lives & he might not even get to the midway point. I will heed everyone's advice & look for a similar AVN with a more active developer. I understand branching is not easy. But if you have a character with these traits & assets at his disposal & he still has no handle on how to deal with sheisty women, I know I'm not going to enjoy the story. I'll only be frustrated.

I also counted the amount of new renders in this update & it was 19 (+-1). That's pathetic when you're writing zero content.

Pretty much, just want to clarify I did not however complete the Novel, I was way to frustrated, it had around 900 chapters at the time of me reading. I gave up around 530+ something, because nothing really was going good, every time you think omfg dude is finally catching a break and getting his shit together and moving on bam some other shit happens and it all starts freaking over again, oh and the first girl is SOMEHOW always around too to fuck with things one way or another and he does NOTHING about it. From those who read further then I did it seems nothing really changes, but yeah if someone wants to know how this game is going to go, I suggest just looking up the Novel and move on because yeah. That is where he is getting his "writing" from.

Also yeah I massively agree, for someone who has to write nothing or needs a team and has this slow of an update time with this VERY little of a length... not worth it.

Didn't I told already it's a shit show not a scam nor a game!

Anyway there's no rule for shit like this, at least he isn't making alt account to review his own game for popularity, let him earn his pocket money, maybe just maybe this game will be completed before apocalypse.;)
