Serena's Services feedback thread [Potential Spoilers]

[kuroha238]

Serena's Services and its sequel Nerisha's Services expanded the story in a new direction as well as introduced a new character to the game. What did you think about these two updates? Any feedback is welcome.

Decent updates, unexpected but much appreciated, really looking forward to the sequel

Unexpected? Well, I suppose that most visual novels don't get content updates, whereas Succubus Research Diary has already gotten three of them.
Personally, I was surprised that Nerisha turned out to be so good at doing... business. Serves me as a reminder that I can never be quite sure what my fingers are up to before I unleash them on the keyboard.

Greatly enjoyed the update. How many more you have planned for this game before moving on to your next game or whatever is in the future?

I've been working on a new game for a few months already. I just put it on hold for a while to make the latest update for Succubus Research Diary. Here are some related blog posts:

Edit: all blog posts related to the new project can be now found here: https://arcusplume.com/category/development-highlights/projecte/

The new project is going to keep me busy for the time being, so I don't think that there will be more updates for Succubus Research Diary anytime soon. But IF I make another update for Succubus Research Diary this year, it's going to feature one of the characters from the yet-to-be-announced new game...

I enjoyed the "services" extra content. After finishing the main story, it was a very pleasant surprise to find one of the endings expanded upon, with more of Nerisha being cute and Serena and Nerisha making a very cute couple as well.

I feel like I could enjoy a full story just exploring their journey, their deepening relationship and how Nerisha settles in a place that's even more alien to her (Earth) than the Underworld was to Serena.

If I had to one thing I disliked though, it would be how the extra content felt like it diminished Serena and Nerisha's relationship. Especially episode two. It feels to me like Serena wasn't respecting her lover at all when she was quite happy to engage in unprotected acts, even finding it amusing that she wasn't using contraceptive magic and might get pregnant with some customer even though Nerisha is her girlfriend/lover.

I was very relieved that later episodes had penetration at least be optional. I really wish episode two had an option as well, where Serena kindly explained to Jenny that babymaking activities are reserved for her lover.

Otherwise, I enjoyed it a lot!

Thank you for your feedback.

I'm not currently planning on making another story that focuses on the relationship of Serena and Nerisha, but the two of them will definitely be seen again. For example, in here: https://arcusplume.com/2023/06/12/is-that-you-nerisha/
