This probably the problems from my end. I may not optimize the video loader of the game. Join my discord and give more detail on the issue on bug-report channel, i will try to resolve it.

You're preaching to the choir, sadly. No matter how well designed UE games are people are convinced that renpy is the only way to go for whatever reason.
This looks great, BTW.
It seems for this game you need 8+ gigs RAM at very least. My RAM load is 9 gigs with the game launched.
Also, I hope you did not touch a virtual memory allocation (AKA pagefile). Despite what the 20-year-old "optimisation guides" say, in modern OSes it does carry a tad bit more complex task than "garbage dump for unused memory code"
Kinda laggy on 10 yo laptop (intel 3230m) despite 16 gigs RAM. Too heavy for HD 3000 I guess
Renpy would run just fine.

It is seem like the video loader problem really serious. I will works on a hotfix to resolve this in the next few days.It seems for this game you need 8+ gigs RAM at very least. My RAM load is 9 gigs with the game launched.

. Downloading issues? Look here.Yeah, the CPU is not really busy (around 1/4 load mostly). Well, it is still playable even on such potato because not a 3D roamer but a VN clicker.

While I always feel a game dev should use the tools they're comfortable with, for VNs in particular, there are few tools with as many built-in conveniences and VN-specific UX features as Ren'Py, so a dev using a tool other than Ren'Py has to code most of those conveniences or features into the engine themselves if they want to approach the user-friendliness of Ren'Py. That's why the resistance against non-Ren'Py games exists.
UE in particular is most often used for representing the 3D models and space in real-time. If it's not being used for that, it is unequivocally far more than a game needs, and is a huge waste of resource utilization. This game even uses Honey Select models/maps for the visuals, so it isn't even using UE for the model or scene rendering.
As for the conveniences I mentioned above, these are all literally native in Ren'Py with virtually no effort:
- Text/Scene Rollback
- Native infinite save space and easy/quick save/load including rollback history
- Native persistent memory of which scenes have been seen
- Native text controls (size, font, etc.)
- Native ability to switch graphic renderer on the fly
- Native/default ability to advance screens with space, Enter, or click
- Native/default right-click for menu
- Easy variable adjustments via URM or similar tools without any programming knowledge required
- Easy human-readable access to the game's code, script, and images
- Easy modding
You'd be surprised. A lot of VNs run on Unity/UE tend to be hungry despite being pure or almost-pure VNs (i.e, minor dating sim mechanics)
You really only need an advanced engine for something advanced-- for instance, Sunrider's first games came out on Ren'Py and the amount of actual game mechanics (it's a turn-based space battle game with VN elements) caused it to crash with constant memory issues. The newest one is on Unity, I think, now?
But yeah. Rule of thumb is, UE and Unity tend to just *exist* clunky as VNs, without any bells and whistles. The two viable VN models are Ren'Py and RPGM (if you know how to work RPGM into a VN model like a few devs such as Siren's Domain have.)
Also, if I'm gonna be honest, I have no coding skill or experience whatsoever (tried to learn LUA for ROBLOX when I was a kid, bought a book that had a typo and got frustrated because I kept getting it wrong but couldn't figure out why) but I could make a Ren'Py game. (I mean, I lack the artistic skill, but...) Ren'Py is really not that heavy-duty from a coding perspective. If you are truly going a full visual novel with no minigames or anything like that, it's extremely simple, and the best option
EDIT: A final summation, the effort needed to use Ren'Py is negligible, the need for UE is nonexistent, and the benefits of using a familiar engine are already starting to be outweighed by people who won't or can't play a UE VN. (Myself not included, but, still)

Also, DuskDuck, I'd like to third this request. Prostitution is a form of NeToRase, if it's your love interests you're prostituting. Pimping out your Love Interests ain't really romantic either.
EDIT: A Primer on "NTR" (for anyone who may desire it)... It stands for 3 different subgenres at once;
Netori (Verb Stem), when the PC does the stealing. F95zone uses the tag 'cheating', except when it doesn't.
Netorare (Passive Verb), when the PC is stolen from, without consent. F95's NTR tag is now this.
Netorase (Causative Verb), when the PC is stolen from, with consent. Now the Swinging tag, I guess? But also kinda Prostitution sometimes?

Many seem to worry about NTR so i will clear it out. The prostitution tag is not meant for the main girls, there will be some side character working as prostitute.

From what i saw after releasing the game for a few hours, ren'py is the best choice for this kind of game to start with. UE have some overkill build-in that are very unnecessary. Reading people posts here, i am really considering switching engine.
I have download Ren'py and give it a go, it is fairly simple so porting the basic will be easy. I am a fast learner, if I go full on this, i think i could get it done in about 2-3 weeks.
Should I go with switching engine?
Do it man! We will cheer you on!
