VN Ren'Py Completed Say It Again [v1.0.0] [Gaerax]

[Kuriichi]

This is my one concern with the game so far. BDSM can be quite fun, but in real-life it takes serious communication, trust, boundaries, and aftercare, none of which was present here. It was a tad immersion breaking. I'm hoping that can be rectified in a future update, which would definitely convert me into a Patreon subscriber

Anyway, keep up the good work Gaerax!

At the risk of reading too much into the character, Clem knows her kink, but she's also got a history of self-harm. She's clearly got a strong desire to be dominated and degraded that goes deeper than enjoying safe play. Full-on SSC or RACK is good practice for BDSM, but lots of people are drawn to it due to past trauma, and it's pretty realistic for that sort of character to be loose with the rules. It's a double threat with Shizue being a neophyte Domme with her own issues.

Gaerax has never claimed the work to be the ABCs of kink, so you shouldn't hold it to that standard. Don't forbid good characters from doing bad things. It makes storytelling boring.

I mostly agree but I think something like aftercare, even if just simple cuddling, should come naturally to most. This is a great story and great characters that are very relatable, especially for those of use with similar kinks and experiences. I hope it continues to keep this same level of authenticity. It's difficult to find a VN that's so engaging and sweet and sexy and emotional.

Yes, but only if it leads to lessons learned and character growth. Otherwise, it becomes immersion-breaking unrealistic nonsense. I don't mean to imply the characters need to immediately switch to proper BDSM etiquette, just maybe gradually find their way into it, or have the lack of boundaries actually cause relationship problems.

I hope that either of the two will happen: Either they overdo it and have to have a serious talk where they can process why she had to cut herself and grow on it. Or that Shizue feels uncomfortable about/fears what she could do and wants something like a safe word herself or that they talk about what boundaries they have.
Don't know what I would prefer more to see, but I hope the dev will surprise me in a good way ^^

One of the best games I've played on F95 so far! And I've played many adult games... too many... but they're fun, so... ^^
Characters at first need getting used to. The bodys are amazing, just my type. Faces are different of what you normaly see, but just after a few scenes I started to really like them. But the best are their personalities: They have one! Thy do stupid things and sometimes things that aren't typical for them, but it always just feels right and ok. It's not just banging because... banging! They have a reason and complex feelings. And often they even don't know what reasons they had, but it all feels natural. They are always comprehensible - even if they don't make sense. Does this makes sense?

You've got my appreciation for your storytelling, Gaerax. It's one of the best I saw in an adult VN. Keep on the good work, really want to see more

Thanks Benji13 your review made me happy

Hi, why is there no load/save function? Never seen it in Renpy.

I removed it because someone said they had a problem with it, and I didn't think it was necessary because it is a short linear story, and I have options to select a starting point. But maybe that was a dumb decision.

"Dumb" is wrong word, but very unusual. Because I like to save lewd scenes if there is no gallery.
But the chapter recaps were good idea! It should be standard of games, which needs several months to update.

Ahhh... Makes sense. Maybe I will add a gallery in the next update.

 

[Finntroll]

That would be great.
I also like to save the interesting scenes to look at them again later. Therefore I miss a save load function. a gallery would be a good compromise.

Fuck.

This third chapter was... something. And I mean it in the best of senses.
Perhaps I do not remember absolutely everything that happened in the previous chapters, but I would say that this third chapter has been the one that has caused me the most emotions.

Fucking happy because Clementine and Shizue are practically finally girlfriends.
Sadness about Clem's past. Although we had already seen a little in the previous chapters, now we see perhaps the main reason for her depression and insecurity. On the other hand, this is mixed with happiness because precisely, she is finding happiness next to Shizue. Although, as is normal, she continues to have doubts about this.

What I have mixed feelings about is the scene where Shizue fucks Clem. The scene itself is amazing and very sexy. What made me "angry" was the flashbacks about Shizue's rape. And I say "anger" in quotes referring to good things. I mean, those little flashbacks really made me feel things, like I already said. Sadness, anger, sorrow... As someone romantic, I always prefer sex scenes to be loving and caring. In this case, I understand Shizue's past and I think the flashbacks work incredibly well. I think the way the scene unfolds is perfectly done. I highlight that a lot.

A pity that the novel is going to end in the next chapter. I would definitely love to see a lot more. Everything good has an end and I'm sure it will be very, very cool.

As a personal opinion, I would love that in the last chapter we have at least one sex scene that is pure romance. They both deserve it. So far it is clear that there are feelings between them, but I have the impression that the sex scenes have been a mixture of everything, but more focused towards domination and lust, rather than pure romance. Which is understandable. Clem and Shizue have really known each other recently and it makes sense that there isn't, say, "true love." That said, I hope the ending is a happy ending together for them. My heart would not bear that they do not end together or that everything ends badly.

Pepe the Frog's eyes look like demon eyes in every screen.

Shizue: "Sorry, but I cannot close my eyes."

Thank you so much ❤ I'm glad you liked it!

Don't be sad! While it is true that this story will end in Chapter 4, and I'm moving on to bigger and better things, there is a chance that these two might just sneak their way into my next project...

 

[Shelscott50]

Wow!! I LOVE This game! DEF going into My Favorites!!
I just hope that Clementine doesn't get hurt; would hate to see her take up "cutting" again.
Shizue seems to have some deep anger issues.
And kinda would not be surprised If Nessa joins them as a trio.

I think dev already said that isn't happening. She is already with someone and 100% straight.

That Is Fine. I have just finished playing this 1st time; so I might have missed that convo.
Besides, With Only One Last Chapter remaining,... not an issue.
I didn't Exactly mean sexually. just rejoined them after breaking up with her BF?? 3rd roommate??

I could see that happening. Clem moves into Shizue's room and Nessa gets her old room back.

 

[slavegal]

nice work! you mentioned something bigger and better, is it also about lesbian DS , please?

 

[_tewi]

pretty hot. the previews don't do this game justice at all

 

[Sera Zios]

Really nice work on Chapter 3. But now I'm sad that there will only be one more chapter
