Progress Update | 28/11/2022


Hello there you wonderful and extremely wholesome people!

Another week, another progress update!

As some of you may have noticed, Beta 5 for My New Family released yesterday. That means we are only one ingame day away until the update is complete! And from what I heard so far, people liked this day a lot, especially because of a certain event involving two ladies you would not have expected to do something together!

The last day of the update will of course focus a little more on the wedding, which will happen as the afternoon/evening event. You will get some time with Maddie before, though, and if you are still not on the "true ending" path, then this day will be very short and weird for you, I think! But you can of course always replay 0.22 and pick the "True ending" prompt in case you are missing a  girl or two. In any case, the day will be very wholesome and emotional, especially regarding the things that happened the day before. I'm also pretty sure some of you will be surprised who will hold the wedding ceremony...Not going to say anything, but feel free to speculate! I personally can't wait to release this update, mainly because it will serve as the "start of the end", if that makes sense. Work on the next day has already started, no release date for the beta yet, but 0.23 will 100% release in the middle of december.

Speaking of release, I'm pretty happy that I was able to release 2 betas this month again. I know that doesn't sound like much, but for me it's a big accomplishment again after the rather slow and painful start of the year.

Now, let's talk about My New Memories. Just like last week, I've been mainly preparing scenes for easier rendering once I fully go back to writing for it again. I also outlined some more special events that will happen towards the end of the Chapter. There will also be some wholesome and rather spicy event with a girl you didn't expect yet. Mainly because she heard from a certain Japanese woman what she did with the MC...Well, if you decided to end the date properly, I guess. Let's just say she really wants to see if she can experience something similar with the MC. That is all up to you to decide, of course. And just fyi, neither her nor the MC is sure about their feelings yet. So this is not a situation like you had with Sabrina - This will be a relationship that didn't start yet, and it's up to you to decide if you want to. Just like with the other girl you dated on the last day...Todays progress update render is Lina and Olivia in the hospital with the MC, a rather wholesome and a little funny event with those two gingers.

And I think thats it for now. Thank you again for the amazing support, you guys really are the best people out there. If anything comes up, I'll let you guys know. Stay awesome!

Okay, so are we taking odds for the person officiating the wedding?
Knowing Fiona, it's probably yet another thing she is qualified for, but I don't think it's going to be the case here - especially as she is both best 'man' and may yet decide to join the other brides-to-be. For my money, I'd say it has to be the nun, as she seems to be coming around to the idea of freer love. As  a secondary guess, maybe Alice's friend from the orphanage. (yes, I know, I can't remember her name either)

My money was on Elaine since she was a lawyer and she was very well known.

Just my guess

Isn't she one of the ones getting married? 
By your logic, Ida (Maddie's coach) is also a possibility.

So only ones mc is going to end up marrying are just family members? or other ones too?

From what I can gather in the game, it's only family members at the moment. Although I'm willing to bet Fiona caves and joins in. 

In all probability, MC would like to marry all his ladies, but let's be honest, it's going to chaotic as it is with (cue rapid mental counting) seven family members and perhaps Fiona all sharing a Big Day. And since Killer7 wants to wrap up this phase of their story, there's only so much you can get done before all sense of believability goes out of the window.

I sort of get the feeling that, now phase 1 is nearing completion - and, in Killer7's mind, IS complete - there's now a yearning to get it over and done with so he, and we, can see What Happens Next. I'm kinda with Killer7 on this, but then again, the writing has been that good, I've been eagerly anticipating every new part. 

By the way, Killer7, I don't know if you are likely to read this, but there is literally only one thing that I feel a need to see before the end; everyone cuddling in a big pile. No sex, just one big happy family, perhaps in front of a log fire.

ohh so just like sl ending where we marry family members and our new gf and not side girls?well here it is better,their side girl doesn't feel more than a side fuck thing,at least dev didn't just left them and brought all harem together in canon ending,it wasn't wholesome like here but still felt like one(just kidding it was always lust)

I hope she does, she has a quite a large following, and personally i've been pretty dismayed at the lack of content she has had since she told the mc about her sister. I mean she appeared here and there, but nowhere near the content even some of the other side girls have had. 

I've said this before but Fiona is extremely important to the MC for various reasons, without her I honestly believe the MC would still be struggling psychologically. She is the one that literally pulled his head out of his butt.

You say "before all sense of believability goes out of the window." I think that one fell out the nest along time ago, when he and his mom hooked up lol

I have heard of stories in Japan where things like this really did happen. Son's having secret family harems, not that it would have mattered to the samurai leaders of the prefectures if they heard of this happening. People where encouraged to stay in their prefecture in their town, village etc. sometimes these villages would end up with only 1 family in them.  When your not permitted to move around, and your country is isolated from everywhere else in the world. Your limited to what you could do. 

Basically it was your family of ladies or nothing at all, and they where just as shall we say just as amorous, you may have had a few young girls who where also disowned by their own family probably because they might not have wanted a daughter, so when she became of age or even less if she was taken in by another family.  There where many genetic problems with the japanese after the isolation ended. 

Girls with messed up teeth, weird looking ears, lot of problems with reproduction.  1/300 women where fertile, by the time they opened their borders to the rest of the world.  That number is just an estimate, but it's probably a very valid number.  The number of boys or men was at an all time low too. It was only during the mid 1800's that the male population began to grow.

Today Japan's population is aging fast. No one wants to have babies, thanks to their so called 'out dated honor system' which really reduces a lot of the things we can do in the west, such as being pro active and looking for a partner, and reproducing. 

The women are saying the boys are becoming too scared to even approach them anymore. They have to go through this traditional merry go round before they can even date, let alone a first kiss. Thanks to something that should have been done away with a long time ago. Nothing wrong with being honorable, but this was designed to reduce the population so it could easily be managed by in the late 17th century until the 18th century.  Instead of ending the thing that would prove harmful to them their successive governments kept it. 

Japan is really one big messed up country, run by a government that is clueless sadly.  Japanese people want to join the civilized world, but they are heavily sheltered from sex and as in above with a reduction in babies being born.

I think you nailed it with the nun. it's the only girl/woman in the game he hasn't done anything with...and given she is a nun, officiating a wedding would feel kind of obvious given as you have said she was coming around to the idea of what the mc was doing.

Wait i have yet to start 2 part,loved 1 one but was waiting for this update 23 to come out to try part 2,but you mean that mc still wouldn't be able to woo the nun? I know it's bad ti be greedy but that's the purpose of wholesome that avn has right?and just leaving a sweet innocent nun is bad thing,my best bet even if dev doesn't want her to be part of harem or even as mc friend,part of family or anything,helding marriage is best and nicest way to set up her last seeing,even without getting with her,it would be good way to apart with good memories for her and for people who liked her.

The nun does seem to be taking some chill pills in later updates, so, yeah....

and i am beginning to think something may well happen in this next update with the nun! it's just speculation until we find out, but I hope so.
