Hey friends!
And there we have it—the Better Deal 0.7 update is officially wrapped up! If
significant grammar corrections or major bugs pop up, I'll roll out a quick
0.7c fix; otherwise, we'll tackle minor issues in future updates.
Over the past few weeks, I took a break from creating new novel content to
avoid burnout—but don't worry, I haven't been idle! I've been busy crafting
specialized utilities for DAZ Studio to speed up my workflow and boost
efficiency. I'm building a suite of tools specifically aimed at optimizing my
process, enhancing dForce simulations (which realistically portray clothing and
materials under forces like gravity and wind), and creating animated morphs.
These tools should significantly elevate the realism of my animations.
Interestingly, nearly all successful NSFW teams (and even non-NSFW ones)
develop their own internal tools for production optimization, rarely sharing
them publicly—or at best, only releasing limited versions. Some even have
dedicated team members solely focused on these utilities.
While my tools aren't fully complete yet, I'll continue refining them
alongside the next Beauty and the Thug update. As always, I'm kicking things
off by drafting a detailed script for the upcoming release.
Many of you have pointed out that Lisa hasn't had intimate encounters with
any man besides Hunter, leading to some criticism. For this next update, I'll
temporarily set aside both the Hunter and Hunter + Amy routes. Instead, I'll
delve deeper into developing the romantic dynamic exclusively between Lisa and
Amy, and explore Lisa’s casual flings with other male characters.
Regarding these flings: originally, I planned to limit them, but given your
enthusiastic feedback, I'm more open now! My one rule to keep things enjoyable
for myself is that Lisa won’t sleep with other men while she's actively dating
Hunter. However, if they're just friends, it's fair game—and Amy definitely
won't mind; she'll be enthusiastically supportive of Lisa's adventures! I'll
add a toggle in the cheat menu to turn romantic relations with Hunter on or
off.
A week ago, I launched a poll on Patreon and SubscribeStar: Which of the side male characters do you want Lisa
to bang for first place?
Pizza Boy and Jose from the Car Wash won by a wide margin. I
initially planned explicit content with Pizza Boy, while Jose was intended to
remain just Lisa's good friend. I've previously emphasized Jose’s faithfulness
to his wife, so this posed quite the creative challenge! But I've found a solid
way around it, resulting in 5 scripted scenes with Pizza Boy and 4 scenes with
Jose.
As for Amy, her story development originally relied heavily on Hunter, even
when he was only a friend. However, since many of you aren't fans of Hunter
(although I strongly recommend giving the guy a second chance!), I've decided
to rewrite Amy’s storyline completely for when Hunter is friend-zoned.
Many of you have also mentioned that Lisa and Amy's relationship progresses
too slowly, with intimacy delayed too long. I've considered this feedback and
am adjusting the storyline accordingly. To keep their romance believable and
avoid rushing, I've planned three key events:
1. A meaningful walk in the park, where the girls emotionally connect.
2. A substantial event (22 pages in Word, font size 11), ending with… well, you'll
see!
3. A final event that culminates in a heartfelt confession and intimacy, which I
still need to finish.
There will also be some smaller, essential scenes—like Lisa reviewing her
math test results, etc.
Those are the plans moving forward! We'll see how smoothly everything
progresses. This time around, I aim to avoid delays by releasing content
incrementally, rather than waiting to accumulate record-breaking updates.
The only downside right now is that my assistant, Aqwaa, has unexpectedly
disappeared. I'd normally joke about this, but it genuinely worries me—it's
very unlike him. I'll stay hopeful that he'll reappear soon.
That’s it for now! Wishing everyone a fantastic start to May, filled with
great vibes!
Your zegamez!
