I really had not played the olivia path before, until yesterday, when i see DS announce is going be the path developed in 0.6, and i think this one could be the best one, cause at the moment that olivia fell for you she confess that alex is an interested asshole that is drugging your sister. At this point as the big brother you should do something to stop this shit and protect your sister, maybe even if you play well your cards convince olivia to talk about this to lisa and keep them both for you. But no you just keep going to let this little eric have your sister.

So basically the options you have are:

Mom: A traumatized rape victim that is abused by a guy that is cheating on her that manipulates her in a way that she is ok with the fact of their son or daughter are in room when they have sex for educational purposes, and don't care he is actively trying to seduce the older sister even when you present to her a photo of him masturbating watching her.
So now in V0.6 your options are to abuse your mother or to convert her in a PornStar.

Aunt: That is a professional whore, but probably the only one that cares for you.

Big Sister: An interested bitch that hates you and only cares for the one that give her the best gifts and money no matter who he is. And the only way you can get something from her is if you pay weed to her pimp or make her drunk.

Little Sister: You can convince her to do things she don't want to do with you and later use the love and respect she have for aunt to force her keep doing thins she don't want to do with you or let an untruthful guy to drug her so you can have his GF.

A little. But it's not like there isn't a plethora of similar games out there so it's not much of a lose really.

I remember when I originally first started playing it that for some reason I got turned off by them treating him badly. Especially during the dinners. I just stopped; dick went limp. Was like "holy shit, fuck this dude's family". The grinding though was something else. I don't know how to feel about that.

The story started out pretty good, a lot of stuff happens at once and the developments at the breakfast table makes it feel like you are in developing story more then the typical dating sim. Things are happening outside your direct control.

And the writer at least seems to understand the concept of variation. Occasionally.

For instance when teaching your younger sister how to kiss, it takes a couple of time but in the beginning you need to do a persuade before the kiss, after a while she goes "Why not" and you skip it. GOOD! Story development, not just an endless grind. So why does it happen so rarely and even then only so little.

I am not asking for endless paths, just say a few variations on the writing with maybe 1 or 2 additional renders.

1st stage First you have to persuade your sister to practice kissing.
2nd stage You still have to initiate it but she no longer needs persuasion
3rd stage hands start to wonder
4th stage if you skip a day, she initiates instead.
5th stage next even in mentor opportunity
and then MOST important 6th stage making out initiated by either one just for the hell of it.

Plenty of erotic games lack the tiny sparkle of promise BB had with the two kissing stages but it makes me hungry for more.

When I read above that 0.6 might just bolt on more content on the end of one path... please no. The beginning is interesting, the end game is a horrific extended grind with events a full week apart.

It is the middle that needs to be fleshed out so any future replay for end content gives us something to do.

It would also help if the grind was reduced. Every dinner you need to feed Eric pills. Once a week is more then grindy enough. Gameplay wise it would be even better if it was a toggle, you pay Alice to drug him and she keeps doing it as long as you keep ordering pills.

We are playing a story game.

Funny enough this kinda of forcedboring grind is something that all game developers seem to suffer from. The classic Transport Tycoon Deluxe had forced maintenance and constant breakdowns. One of the first things modded out. But it is fun! The developer says, I play tested it for an hour and it was amazing.

Ugh no, say the gamers who played the game for 100 hours.

currently path with Olivia have 1 problem - no continuation in mentor opportunity. If Olivia path lead to double mentoring (Lisa and Olivia) this would be great. On the other hand if i choose path where i suggest Lisa to forget about Alex - i missed entire content with Olivia - which is a shame. Yes, i can mentor her under supervision of Kira but loosing Olivia from this game is just another blow.

I'm a writer and have been heavily considering just re-writing this entire game, honestly. All the scenes are great visually, the ideas have good bones, but it has a poor translation and infuriatingly poor storylines. If I can open up the scripts and just rewrite it in the txt file or whatever I could really make the characters interact and speak a lot better.

Lisa, for example, is your younger sister archetype yet instantly knows you're 'chasing' her and is all sarcastic about it. She should be naive, that's the whole point of the 'mentor' story, but instead she knows exactly what you're up to.

If I see interest in the idea of the script being re-written I'd definitely take a look into doing that as a mod.

0.4 got me so pissed off that I pulled my patronage from DS, 0.5 I actually enjoyed once I went down the right path. It was kinda shitty that I had to lose everything to switch paths but right now I'm doing Kira & Lisa with Olivia on the way, I used Kate's Mom to deliver on Alice & turn Eric into someone's cock puppet and Mom is jerking me off every day so I'm all good :) Now if I could get Kate's Mom that would be the Holy Grail!

I strongly agree. i was playing the olivia path, but i don't like it anymore, there must be an option to stop this and keep them both or at least that you can talk to lisa and make her forget about he and change the path.

Is there any way to contact DS to let him know about this ideas? i used to patron he and post multiple ideas in his patreon page, but it looks like he don't care and really never see him replying, I do not think he reads the messages.

The problem is the initial appearance the game has before you play it. If you go to the patreon page the first genre listed is Incest. Ok.. so the MC is a teenage dude with a sexy ass family and it's an incest game. You're thinking sweet, that's just what I'm looking for (as most of the internet is nowadays for some reason).

Then you start to play and realize, 'Oh, shit. The MC is a lame who is gonna get abused by everyone and have to watch some new Alpha corrupt and fuck the whole family.' Then you like, 'Wait a sec. Let me go recheck the game info page.

Hmmm. *read* *read* *re-read* *re-read again* what the fuck? why doesn't it have NTR listed? *philosophical thinking* Maybe it's because the girls are family members? Your dad fucking your mom isn't NTR, right? Yep, that makes sense. Wait, but why is incest listed as the first genre, then? *realization* that sneaky ass Dev...
