Weekly preview - New toys

tl;dr - There's new toys you'll be able to buy and use in the toys scenes with Nobuko, Emi and Mika.

This week's images

I'll just note here that it's kind of hard to preview these scenes because they're kind of a sum of their parts and maybe don't work as well out of context, in the way that most other scenes might.

New toys coming in 0.49

In addition to the new phone messages I talked about last week, 0.49 will include new toys available to buy from the shops district: the violator and the double pleasurer. I've tried to give each scene with each of these toys something a little different, so these toys aren't just repeats of each other and they get different results.

Since there are already scenes in place in which you can use the existing toys, these scenes will now expand to finally be almost complete (the last toy will show up in 0.50) and include the new options. I feel like those scenes may not have been as impressive as I wanted in the past, just because I didn't have all the options available yet.

So you'll be able to use these two new toys with Nobuko in her toys scene that I recently introduced, with Emi in her existing toy scene in the bathroom, and I've also added new options with Mika in her massager scene in the bathroom, even though that one wasn't originally planned to work that way. It just seemed most practical to add in options there right away.

I'm not sure whether this seems like a significant feature update or not, but between the two toys across the different scenes there's a fair amount of new interactive content, including new voice lines, so I think it's pretty solid. (I did want to make sure I bundled in those Hirai messages I mentioned last week too, though.)

What do you think? Does this sound like a worthwhile expansion? Let me know in the comments below!
