Episode 1.19.1P available to Recruits+!
Added 2023-08-27 19:56:54 +0000 UTCGreetings Recruit! Here's episode 1.19.1P, "The New Girl".
This was a controversial episode, receiving by far the most negative criticism of any episode of Female Agent. I made some scene edits based on the feedback, but be warned this episode missed the mark for a lot of people.

I agree with most of what you said. This episode did take a long time to create, but I normally can overlook that, because what we are rewarded with is typically phenomenal. I didn’t feel that way about this episode. The trouble is, we’ve been building up and building up to something grand, while Kate has mostly accepted her fate, developing a stronger tolerance for what is to come. At least that’s how I’ve chosen my character’s path. Each episode was a step in the direction I assume we all want her to go. This episode, however, felt like she took several steps back, and now we have to start over from scratch. With most stories, no matter what type of content it has, there’s a gradual progression as it goes along, until the story reaches its climactic conclusion. With this one, this episode provided a definite sense of regression. That was my biggest disappointment with it.

2023-09-03 10:19:16 +0000 UTCI liked how Kate has to guide a new girl while at the same time being guided herself towards her future bargirl job. The thing that I hadn't expected and felt rather dissonant was that she completely fell apart after giving a bj. I didn't see that one coming at all. I call it dissonant because I'm not really sure the reaction was warranted after how the game has gone up to this point. If Kate had gotten into an argument with Steph about it and she pointing out she's just doing the thing Kate herself is doing for Emilia, that could have caused this kind of breakdown as the stress of the mission, the worry about being forced to bargirl, and the realisation that she's helping this new girl down a path that might result in her disappearance all converge. That's not what happened however and she broke down after a bj while having had sex for mission objectives before and knowing this was going to come sooner or later. Maybe it would have felt more natural if this had happened as she got home alone and got some time to think about what she was doing, or while she was writing out her report? It happening right after, in the club while she's on her mission and playing her "role" seemed to sit somewhat uncomfortable to me. I liked the new girl and guiding her in her first day on the job. Good characterisation, like I've come to expect from this game and I'm looking forward to interacting with her in future releases. You probably know this is coming, but blimey did it take long to get this release! I feel I have to mention this despite being in two minds about it. I want to give you the time you need to come up with good stuff and present it well, but on the other hand I feel I have to give you truthful feedback. There where times where I was wondering what we where still waiting for, the development time made it feel like an other huge thing like girls night out was coming down the pipe. After having played trough the release I found it felt rather small, almost filler? Especially since a lot of the update consists off evenings in the club. I love those evenings in the club, don't get me wrong, but they don't feel like the most complicated parts of the story to tell. Having never developed anything like this before I could be completely wrong about it, but they have a rather well developed location, structure and characters to lean on. I could have imagined the development would take a long time if we'd get into proper bargirl territory because that would require a drastic change in what the club nights are and therefore needs a decent amount of setup. In the end we just dipped our toes in. Maybe a lot of development time went into making that jump and it's somewhere on the cutting room floor? So, lets tie this together. I liked what I got in the end, but it took a long time to get it for what it was. It's alright to have a filler episode from time to time while developing on bigger plot twists in the future. It's fun to have a new character and Kate now acting as a big sister for the new girl. I also liked Miss Nin in this episode, and I'm looking forward to interacting more as she'll become Kate's new boss. So, long story short. Keep up the good work and keep developing the story. Just don't leave is with blue balls to often XD
