Thank you for the kind words.

And this is a story that happens to have sex scenes in it.

I'm so confused. To date, you're the only person who's complained about the semantics of not calling it a porn game in the nearly 4 years this story has been available to the public. What did you expect to come of this conversation? Did you expect me to change the categorization for one person? One person who, at this point, probably won't even play WCA? What was your goal? What do you gain from this, other than to be the Well Actually Guy? Does that make you happy? Did you expect to come in here and wave your dick around and intimidate me into... what, deleting the disclaimer? Do you get something from that? 'cause I am genuinely confused as to what compelled you to make such a big deal in a public comment section over (checks notes) a word. If you wanna categorize it as a porn game in your mind, go for it. There's nothing stopping you. Just like there's nothing stopping me from deciding to call it a porn game, a story with sexual content, or a downloadable catholic guilt simulator. If your personal definitions help you sort out what you wanna play and what you don't, fantastic. But you're not gonna force your definitions on anyone else, anymore than any of the NTR criers are gonna force me to call this an NTR game because you will eventually have the OPTION of sharing one of the girls with a lesbian character in a polycule. 

26 years of playing porn games. That's impressive. Very respectable consumer experience. But how many have you written? How many books have you published? How many communities have you created and led? How many projects have you been involved in the creation of that relied on community feedback to improve your product? Have you ever been on the other side of the proverbial counter and experienced the position I'm in as a community manager and creator? Somebody who has to weigh community feedback by volume and severity and decide what to change and what not?

That experience is what leads me to balance my decision between one person who, at least to my perception, seems only interested in arguing semantics, over a several tens of people whose gameplay experience was actually adversely affected because the advertising led them to believe it was something it's not. It's a numbers game. For a game developer, or a creator of ANYTHING, really, that can be a cascading effect, potentially resulting in bad reviews that would, in turn, cause other people reading reviews to potentially go "oh, ew," and not play the game. That causes real, tangible damage to the game. One person complaining that I attempted to mitigate that disappointment so that people who were looking for quick fap games would know this isn't the game for them in order to avoid real damage to the game... think about that logically. I put in a disclaimer because people were being adversely affected. For most of this game's life, it has not had nearly the volume of sexual content as most porn games do, and that's only been changing recently. Deleting that disclaimer for one single person just... makes no sense. On top of that, some of the people who initially came looking for that type of game are now paid supporters of the game, and prefer the disclaimer because it sets the game apart from your typical quick fap game. Why on Earth would I change something that even the paying people support for one person, who is not paying, and who at this point will likely never even download and experience WCA? Use your critical thinking for even half a second and you'll see why that's such a bad idea. If I instantly bowed and scraped and "yessir'd" and changed the game every single time a person came at me with an isolated opinion, this project would be an utter mess.

Bottom line, unless I get a bunch more people saying the same, I'm not deleting the disclaimer. Maybe it would be better worded as "THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL PORN GAME" or "THIS IS NOT A QUICK FAP GAME" to better drive my point home. But honestly, I don't really understand what you're after here, or what you thought the result of this conversation was gonna be when you started it, other than making yourself look like an elitist, and you know how much people love elitists. But if this made ya feel better, ey, more power to ya. I can't claim to understand what makes people tick. You do you, I'll do me, and if a single disclaimer ruins an entire game for you, I... really don't know what to tell ya, bud. Coming in here and waving your dick around isn't gonna intimidate me into deleting something that helps people decide whether or not WCA is for them. True, I haven't been consuming adult games for 26 years. Congrats. That's impressive. I've been writing for 25 years, leading online communities for 12, and creating AVNs specifically for 4. Can you say the same?

Have fun with your superiority complex. 

Thank you so much. We got a lot of shit for that last episode, as apparently AVN players don't like minigames. Nice to see some encouraging feedback. :)

I really thought it was time for some closure between Aurum and Ashley, and to find out what happened to her and where she's been. This seemed like the perfect opportunity to give everyone that and some time with Kageshini, like everyone's been asking.

No, it's not. A "porn game," according to all the people who complained when I used to call this a porn game, is something that revolves around the sexual content, where the "story" is thinly veiled excuses to move to the next sex scene. These games typically have a ton of sexual content, letting you experience sexual content consistently and frequently.

Being called a "porn game" in the past has led people to a lot of false assumptions based on that trope. People coming in expecting a quick fap game will be very disappointed, because this is a long story whose sexual content is spread out and takes a while to earn. That's why I make the distinction, because of past complaints that the game "isn't a porn game if you can't fap within the first 10 minutes" lol. So it is a story that happens to have sexual content in it. Now nobody can bitch when there's not something they can fap to within the first 10 minutes because I warned them in the description.

Oh, we're getting there. Don't you worry.

Very kind of you. I wish more were as understanding.

It was definitely a challenge I wanted to take. I loved the concept of goblins, but I always hated how they were either ugly, nasty, filthy creatures or just green humans. Always one extreme or the other, never a sweet spot in the middle. I wanted to see if I could make them cute and lovable without losing what made them goblins. So I kept the short stature, the grey-green skin, hooked noses, and large earlobes. I gave them a sort of dirty grey for their typical hair color and went on to customize from there. Nook and Tilai were the first two, and people loved them so much I was bullied into making more. Now we have 9 and another game planned called Goblin Roommates 'cause people would not stop pestering me for more goblins lmao

It's specifically the three Trials in Season 2 Episode 4. You wouldn't believe the amount of shit I got because people couldn't beat the second one. So I figure frustration ain't the aim of the game, so let's implement a quality of life feature for those who want it :)

You can also turn Jumpscares off in the Options menu! It's tied to a persistent variable so you gotta close and reopen the game if you do, but that was a requested option

Hit the View All By VictorSeven button in the top right or just go to my profile. The only thing that's publicly available is the H-Gallery add-on, and we have 1 character in Early Access for T4 supporters and above, but it'll be made available to the public when it's finished.

Yeah you can pop into the Discord and I can help ya out. Lemme know which Trial you're stuck on. It seems you're not the only one who isn't having fun with the Trials, so I'm thinking of adding a Cinematic/Walkthrough mode that highlights the right choices for you. 

The #wca-questions channel would be the right one :)

You unzip it and you put it in your WCA folder. Itch will give you instructions when you buy it.

Yup! Once you buy it and claim it on your Itch account, you own it forever. That includes updates!

AH. See, context helps lol. There are so many renders in this game, sometimes I forget what's in 'em.

Ah. I think I found it. I had another coder help me with a couple of things, and he inserted a name command in the beginning of Wither B and E. I've commented them out and they'll be fixed next patch. Thank you!

Hey! Was it her last scene? I've heard this comment a couple of times and I'm having trouble finding where that might be.

We're aiming to resolve Ms. Clements' story in S2E7!

The DLC girls are all going to eventually be made available for purchase. Different Supporter tiers get different benefits regarding these DLCs.

T4 and up get Early Access and get to play them as they're being developed
T3 gets free DLCs when they're finished
T2 gets 50% off DLCs when they're finished

We WILL be doing DLC giveaways in the Discord here and there as well, and we may do community freebies as well, so people who are unable to support financially can have chances to enjoy them too. 

Where are you seeing a rabbit?

That shouldn't be happening... contact me on Discord and we'll figure out what's going on.

Thank you so much! There's a lot of discussion in the Discord and we're very responsive there, if you feel like joining. Also do DLC giveaways here and there :

Thank you! I was really worried with how heavy and different this episode was but I'm getting some surprisingly positive sentiment about it. Please be sure to fill out that survey!

That shouldn't be happening. Can you pop into the Discord and let me know where that's happening in the #wca-bugs-typos channel? I'd like to know whose story that's happening in so I can check the code. 

Looking forward to your thoughts and survey response if you have the time :)

Then there would be no reason to sign up. Most of the people who sign up do so for exclusive content,  and that includes the pinups and HMVs we put out.  If I was giving all of that away for free, there'd be no reason to sign up.

People canceling support would mean I'd have to work more.

Working more would mean I have less time to work on WCA.

Less time to work on WCA means content drops would slow to a crawl. And I don't think you want that.

The income is necessary for the game to stay alive. I have to keep some things for the paying supporters, bud, or this whole thing falls apart. Sorry.

Well I don't write the code for itch.io so I can't make the website behave like that. Sorry.

If you want any of the screenshots in any of my posts, you can always right click and hit Save Image As in your web browser :)

We have to make some progress in the main story before we can get to Ms. Clements' story. We'll get there.

Ahh that must be before I did the fix, then. Should be fine in 1.4.0.1. Look in the Game folder for a file called FantasiesCollection.rpa. Should be 0KB. Delete it if you have it and that button shouldn't show up anymore.

Alright, I'm now confused lol. I just unpacked the 1.4.0.1 version of the game, and I'm not seeing a "Replay Gallery" button anywhere. The only button should be "Fantasies Collection," and that should be in the main menu without the game running, and only if the DLC was purchased and added to the game. Where are you seeing a "Replay Gallery" button? Are you on version 1.4.0.1? Or do you have the current free version?

Hmm that means a blank FantasiesCollection.rpa may have still made it into the files. The replay gallery is a paid DLC feature so the standard version shouldn't have it. I'll have to check the files and see where the issue is.

You will, however, be able to see which girls you're unlocking once you get partway into Season 2 and gain access to the Free Time system :)

Glad you like it! Sound and music design is super important to me. You'll hear the music evolve over the course of the story as I come into possession of more and more music packs, and include some sneaky references and easter eggs here and there as well :P

I dedicate an entire development step to scoring a scene, so the fact that it's noticed is appreciated!

Yeah that version shipped with an empty FantasiesCollection.rpa file in the Game folder. That's a paid feature and the presence of the RPA unlocks it, but without any data in the RPA it doesn't work. That's fixed in 1.4.0.0, which also includes a whole new Main Story episode. 

Hey I appreciate it but what I tend to need the most help with is the posing and shooting stage. I have a pretty distinct render style I have to teach people that differentiates us from most other AVNs that either use sprites or reuse the same angles over and over again. 

I'd be open to chatting over Discord about it, but I keep bringing on new people and they keep either not being able to emulate my style or not being able to do scenes I need within the time period I need them, and I keep ending up doing them myself. If you feel like you can pose and capture 27 screenshots in an hour like I can, feel free to hit me up. @victorseven on Discord.

So Oid is the brainchild of my buddy DioGinrochi (Oid is just Dio backwards) and was inspired by the T-Dot Goon Scrap DVD videos on YouTube. Dio suggested making an opposite version of himself that spoke only in Toronto slang and I was all for it lol

He's also a streamer, and the artist behind Goat Meat Mafia (the song that plays during the Eshtel video call)

I'm sending this to Oid's creator, the guy who helps me write him lmao
And thanks for the input!

Yeah, after this release, I'm thinking once every 2 months might be the sweet spot, but I wanna see the data first. I appreciate the concern :)

I'm already exponentially better so far. Just kicking the last of it as we knock out the rest of these remaining scenes.

Here's Rukah and Wither, one of our Dryad characters.

Is it Orcs specifically that you're looking for, or do you like muscular girls in general? 'cause we have more of those that aren't Orcs. For instance, here's Galka, our goliath character:

There is. Her name is Rukah. Though she's very different from what you'd expect from your typical Orc.
