Not sure why there's no topic about it, but anyway - new game, go play.

.:BUGS:.
* The game still won't acknowledge when I buy the smartphone.
* The smartphone disappears when you try using it during sex.

Right off the bat, I don't want to play as Terry. He seems like a real asshole. Gave it a go and tried to plant a flower with Sasha... "Stop it! Is that all you think about? I'm not in the mood."

Yeah, they make a good couple alright.

Be the nice guy... You lose.
Be the prick... You lose.

It seems from all the comments that it's a bit too much effort trying to go for ending 3.

Also surprised there is no ending/scene involving the guy she meets at the pool other than the scene where she goes to dinner with him. Unless I've missed something?

Bugs aside, it's not the LoP team's greatest work.

Gameplay is almost identical to Looking for Love (Earn x amount of points to do this, then phail to advance, then earn more points so you can replay scene you just did to get a little farther, rinse repeat). The games that involve inserting something into something else is exactly like Trip to Paradise, which was my least favorite part of that game since it's very awkward to do on a touchpad. Your girl at points makes demands of you which was exactly like Living with Britney, though tbh I didn't mind that too much. Plus the dates you can go on are exactly like LwB, though without the possibility a good scene at the end (you just do activities till you run out of time then just go back to the appartment) so once you get enough points to see everything there's no point to doing them again for the rest of the game.



Also, toward the end you basically don't do anything but have sex with your girl for like a week strait, which is much more boring and repetitive than it sounds. Essentially you just repeat the same 5 actions that give you the most points (including the carpal tunnel inducing inserting games) for like 8 days in a row. Even after doing all that, I only got 2403 points which wasn't enough for the best ending. With most LoP games I would replay them multiple times to perfect the playthrough and get the most points for the best ending, but this one was just so repetative that I couldn't bring myself to do it.

At the end of the day it's just a clone of Looking for Love with some good improvements that are outweighed by the bad/poorly implemented additions. Plus there are several bugs that really detract from the game, and in the case of the dissapearing smart phone actually break the game (found that one out on day 25 of 40 and had to restart, ugh). Play it once or not at all, there are much better games on the site.

The problem I have with LoP simulation games is that the simulation/stats part is just a barrier that is here to prevent you going further into the story. It would be nice if something special (meeting new characters for example) could happen during a job, while going to study, at the gym, while shopping, etc... and/or if the stat we choose to increase had an other effect than just unlocking the story. Of course I will not complain about the free game, but the paying games could be improved in that way.

Couple bugs I noticed:

It's been quite frustrating, no doubt. I'm kind of glad to see so many report similar problems of repetition and the carpal-tunnel, boredom inducing scenes. The girl is cute and which is why I tried quite hard to reach the ending 3, but reading about it here, I don't think I'm going to try it again. Anyway, since I enjoyed some of the few hours which I played the game, thank you LOP team.

I hope to see some Medieval RPG game that last long and it has tactical combat where you have to grind to level up.
It has graphic like Lesson pf Passion games and it includes good story.
Youre able to marry and have kids or change princesses.

I'm pretty sure this version of living with Sasha is a beta, and it will be polished and cleaned up for full release. that's why its not on the LOP page yet...I believe

Pretty much the same as everyone else.
Lots of similarity to the most annoying aspects of other games, plus a few bugs thrown in for good measure...
A rare hint of turkey from PF1/LoP - but I guess everyone's entitled to an off day. Lord knows I have enough of them

What you are describing sounds almost exactly like the game described in this thread
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3003

It's currently in the funding stage, but it has already met its minimum goal so it definitely will be made unlike "The Miami Voyeur." I only mention the funding aspect because, as of this posting, it has already met 5 of it's extra funding goals and at the next tier of donations it will include having children like you want. Even more promising is that to reach that goal it needs less than $400.

Graphically, I think you may be setting your benchmark a little high with the pictures you posted. However, I know one of the artists involved in the ill fated "Ass Effect" series of games is involved in this project and his work on those games was of a very high quality. The makers of this upcoming game have already said that additional funds they receive through their fundraising will be used in part to improve the look of the game so if you know anyone willing to donate something it will probably end up looking like what you are hoping for in your dream game.

and after it disappeared I couldn't continue so there was 38 days (well in this game) down the drain. It might be better if each sexual action cost 10 energy and you had 100 each day but could only spend 50 on sex with the options opening as you progress - I know they do but I think after you are over 1000 I'm pretty sure everything is on the table.

That was the point I was trying to make about the repetitiveness of the game. After everything is unlocked you still need double to triple the points to get the best ending, and the best way to do it is to just repeat like 5 actions ad nauseum.

Seeing as how the game ends, if I remember correctly, at 40 days you caught a pretty rough break there. I thought it was bad when it happened to me at only 25 days.

There's at least one that requires 1500.
