@TheDevian ... Having worked for gov't for more than a decade, and been involved in the trailer-gate brought about by hurricane katrina and a couple of others; the gov't offered to sell the trailers to the inhabitants for pennies on the dollar. literally 92-97% off purchase price.
the real issue is does it fit within Runey's vision of the game; and is it worth the time it would take to incorporate it for him.
True, though I am not exactly sure how that could conflict with anything I suggested, unless it is about not being able to find her like the missing kids right now. :sneaky:

the US gov't is actually incredibly good at keeping track of property; when it wants to. an example is hillary's 33000 deleted emails, including more than 110 marked classified or higher. now that its basically too late to put her in prison for the 10+ years i would have faced having done the same; emails have been found... LOTS of them.
as for Ren, I would imagine the person in charge of that program or one of the subordinates rather, knows exactly where she "is" supposed to be.
it would be a very easy to write story arc, practially writes itself! Coding and all the rest... not so much, i imagine.

Yeah, what I was saying could be difficult, was that she is basically being used as a welfare benefit, and the red tape around that stuff is insane. Trying to get anything changed required a crazy amount of paperwork, and sometimes temporary loss of services. That said, give the guy in charge a good reason, and he can pull some strings.

As for the player finding her, I was thinking that he was looking on his own, perhaps he stumbles across Ashley thinking about her or something, and he starts his own little investigation. I mean, he has a bit of a connection to the guy, but it's not like they are good friends where he would be asking for little favors without prompting. After all, as many people here are happy to talk about, he is not well liked over all.

Potentially a controversial opinion. I really don’t think it is, but given recent discussion, I think it might be. I know not everybody is going to going to agree with me, and this is by no means a call to debate. I am just simply stating my opinion about recent discussion. Feel free to disregard. I’m sorry in advance if I offend anyone, this really is just an idiot commenting.

Yeah, it can be, especially when the one you like gets bashed, or like in Kate's case, where her plot is being elusive. I cannot speak for anyone else, but personally, I am doing it partly in jest, but mainly due to Runey saying they could be an option. I doubt too many here would want to push Runey into doing something that makes 'em unhappy.

While it can be frustrating to have people want you to take a story in a direction you had not intended, or bring back a character you never intended to focus on. I prefer to think of it as a complement myself, a testament to a well crafted character. Also, at least in my experience, if there is a female in one of these games, there will be someone who wants to sleep with her, it's kind of like one of those Rules of the Internet. :geek:

Counterpoint to the Ms. Ren and how Runey might feel about it. I'm focusing in Ren because the Drow is pretty much a meme about collecting them all.

I mean... You catch them, lock them in the hotel and train them in the sex dungeon to later compete against other elves, like we saw with Lin....

Runey is losing money not making a "Harem GO" so we can go around our city catching them.

We are just doing it to protect them! If we didn't do it, then someone worse then us would, we saw that with the Drow's introduction! It's purely altruistic, I assure you! Are you saying you want someone like Ashley's dad to catch them instead of us? How cruel! That man should never get another stray! In fact we should glue some ears on him, and sell him to Mr. Cromwell! Let Ashley do it, that way we don't even get in trouble for faking an elf! I mean, I know he's a bit out of shape, but he can still scrub toilets and stuff...

...Wait, what were we talking about again? Oh yeah, characters we want more of! When is Ashley going to tie her mom up and 'trick' us into fucking her? :devilish: :LOL:

The way i see it is...
I'll just add my suggestions for Runey to see, If Runey likes em and decides to use part or all of them great.
If not that's cool, It is after all Runeys game and not mine.
If you don't make the suggestions though it may never happen or even have been considered.
the fact were having a discussion about some of those suggestions is a testament to Runeys Writing, It shows people have become invested in the story and are passionate about the game.
I in no way intend to force Runey in any way he/she does not intend the story to go.

No matter what direction Runey takes this game in the future I support it, If the writing and story continue on this level.
I am sure it will, and i will continue to be a Patron supporter as long as Runey keeps working on it.

Currently I am a Patron supporter of three games two at a $1 level and one at a $5 level, Runey holds the $5 honor.
I would support more to these 3 games but my budget is very limited, I could pledge $1 to Runey and Pledge to another 4 games, But in all honestly I believe Runey deserves My $5 monthly Pledge.

But all this is just my two cents.

I don't mind the requests for more of a character. I like to be able to fuck all the girls in games too :)
Oh no no no. We dont want Ms.Ren for our own selfish perverted needs. Ashley simply needs a motherly figure to assist in raising the 22 kids that her and MC will have. They're gonna have their own TV show on TLC called "22 Kids And Counting" you know. Gonna be a hit.

Here are my thoughts, for whatever they are worth.

If was a developer, and I was active on F95Zone in my own game’s discussion thread, I don’t think I would be too bothered with people clamoring for more of a certain minor characters over main characters or discussing minor characters and whether they should come back. Fans do this all the time with tv series, comics, etc. I think it’s a testament to Runey’s ability to character and world build that is a bit unusual in this genre of games.

Runey is ultimately the one who makes the decisions about the game’s and character’s direction. But, he cares what we think as well. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t be as active as he is here. But he shouldn’t be beholden to the fans or supporters either. I follow a few other threads here. Some of those games, (extremely popular ones I might add) seem to have lost their way a bit and have their devs burning out because they are consumed with polls and patrons deciding the direction of the game. Some of those game discussion threads are a damn dumpster fire, discussing literally everything other than the game and it’s story and characters. The fact that this thread is a discussion about the characters that we have all grown to love and the story that we are all invested in is a breath of fresh air to be honest.

This is not directed at anyone, just adding to the larger discussion.

I know I’d recommend abolishing the communal shower and putting a personal shower in the girl’s room, accessible only by suggestion. Then replace the shower scene with a spa scene in its stead. I think that could functionally help the game for a few reasons.
1. The spa area is under-utilized.
2. At the current moment, girls only take a shower once per week (stinky)
3. The new system would imply they take a shower on their own time, and we are just suggesting they take an extra one that day.
4. Using the spa once per week feels generous and more realistic than it simply never being used.

Well that was the ramblings of a tired ———— aged man on the verge of falling asleep while writing this. I hope it was cohesive and respectful enough.
well i can agree with that if runey changed that the game could have better mechanics and if you wanna spy on them you simply just could go to the room the girl you wanna spy :)

Response below. I’ll edit to make sure it’s more my style in a little bit.
——
All fair points, and I actually did mention the “I want to fuck them all” argument initially, my tired ass just deleted it without realizing it. It was essentially, “Given the genre, the notion is logically presumed and has already been thought through.”

I also wasn’t taking anything away from Runey. I agree that the fact that he/she has 465 pages of discussion is a true testament to their ability to produce an engaging product. For Christ’s sake, I’ve spent days constructing a globe, predicting plot-points, theorizing the daily events of people outside the hotel, reconstructing history based on the limited knowledge we had, etc., I understand theorizing. I also wasn’t criticizing the use of discussion, it’s fine, my point was it seems to drag on until we egg a response out of the developer. If we’re at that point, we’ve probably said all there is to say already. I know Miss Ren hasn’t really left the initial suggestion made when her discussion first started.

Absolutely fantastic game, I know not everyone likes honey select models, but damn all of these characters are so perfectly designed. So much to do and I haven't noticed any bugs despite not even being near a 1.0 release, brilliant job, well done.

Can't wait to see more in the next update, whenever it's ready. I really hope this absolute gem sees a final release eventually, especially with how fleshed out some of the characters stories are becoming, I always knew Ashley was best girl who deserves so much, and her story resonates with that as does her personality. (my opinion, don't start a waifu war, not what this is about)

If this did make it to steam somehow (or similar), I'd sure as hell buy it a bunch of times. Keep up the good work, well done Runey, and thank you.

The game's sequel will be building a second hotel just to house all of the kids. :LOL:
