Ren'Py A House in the Rift [v0.7.16r4] [Zanith]

[sillyrobot]

For me it really depends on how its done.

In Rewrite the change is very natural, while remaining a clear cut point. All elements were hinted before, hidden in plain sight or even carefully exposed. Then, the shift happens and the story feels smooth about it.

I dont believe House in the Rift will go to those details, but sometimes for stories not to stalemate, you need to flip the board.

I can appreciate a naturalistic evolution of a narrative. Situations can evolve and relationships change because of that evolution to a point. Foreshadowing and clear narrative choice can go a decent way to keeping a story fresh. When you get to the point of drastic genre shift (romance to horror or tragedy for an example) I feel the author isn't being honest with the initial advertising.

As a personal example, my spouse wanted to see A Constant Gardener and sold it to me as "a romance featuring Rachel Weiss". To say I was disappointed with the outing would be an understatement.

I love this game, just wish it had more anal (Lyriel please)

Is the gallery broken? I last played a few patches ago so waited for a little more content and i dont seem to have the new scenes i saw in the gallery. Might be because i used a much older save though but i dont know. Just wondering if this is actually a thing or maybe I've bugged myself out somehow.
(last patch i played was when Blair was indroduced).
Don't think i can be assed to do it all again if that is the case, its not that important.

The gallery is not broken (AFAIK) but has not been updated in the last I think two updates either.

im sure someone already made the joke, but i felt the need to make this with my expert MS paint skills

 

[pentane]

What's the joke, sorry?

she slapped the phonograph and said a version of the meme

 

[pentane]

Thanks.
Never heard of it. Doesn't seem particularly funny.
I see no humour in the meme.

its more of a "hey i know that format"
its the car salesman meme if you want to see others... or not lol

Quoting this because I'm wondering about this scene, I think I may have done something out of order? The quest book still says talk to Lyriel in the evening and tell her to wear the blouse but all it gets me is the regular outfit sex scene. I got both her and Cait's makeup scenes already but can't seem to trigger this outfit change. If anyone's got a clue please chime in.

If by outfit you mean the school girl outfit than that's what's supposed to play. If it plays the slightly dominate scene where you tell her how to address you and such everything worked as intended.

Hey guys.
I got a problem with Caith and her quest... Talked and done about everything possible during her breakfasts but this damn quest doesn't get a status update. Does someone know what the issue is with this thing?

You won't be able to do that until after her morning visits have been done with the fellatio. After that you can offer to supplement her protein.

This game could have been so much better if it only had Lyriel and Rae as LI, these others could be optional, if they didn't exist it would be even better, so it wouldn't be so difficult to play this game.

Noooo... Caitlin is a great character, and when she learns how to do better BJ, she'll be the best.

 

[throwawayhentai]

is the gallery unlocked broken or has there actually been no new scenes in like a year

 

[Bueno]

I think the recent discussions on the characters are good indications that the plot needs to enter its third act.

 

[uavxxx]

I've waited months for the update, and the new content is not big
I feel disappointed to be honest. Love this game, but... we need more.

 

[PRINCE2126]

how far along is this game till its finished ? also can someone explain what happened a few pages down are they planning NTR If so id like to know so I can just bounce even if optional.

 

[gintu]

Are there any saves available at the current update or something close to it. I dont want to completely restart this game

I really can't see Lyriel being into strap ons, though.
Naomi, on the other hand...

How do you get the rooftop ride? After unpacking I see the images and animations are in there, but I don't see it in the script, and it's not triggering in the game. No choices in that scene are showing any variables that would trigger the scene either.

You're right, I figured it out a little later that I kept picking the pink text choice when you actually had to just "talk" with her first. I was hoping it was that scene but with the goth outfit instead

Oh well, I'm sure we'll get more tsundere goth elf eventually

Do rae's quest. There will be one in which she asks you to climb the tower. After that, wait for 5 days.
It is indeed a long wait in the game, so long that many could probably miss it, especially if you are following the updates and finish everything in 3 days.
