VN Ren'Py Completed A Knight's Tale [v0.36 SE] [Neverlucky]

[Spfjolietjake]

Bullshit. We started off enjoying it. We're providing feedback on it. Whether or not dev is here or will listen to that is another thing. It may change, it may not. Some devs listen to feedback. Others don't. Doesn't mean we shouldn't try.

How many updates have these posters voiced that they want change, personally I have lost count... there comes a point when you should realize this is the vn and how it will continue to be. A lot of people like it this way...

 

[Avaron1974]

It's never going to change, i'll tell you that now.

Simply put, if you enjoy it, great. If you don't, that's unfortunate but it is time to move on because the content is not going to alter in any way from what it is now.

It's been 2 years of going in the same direction with the devs showing no acknowledgement of any issues brought up. If people haven't realised their feedback isn't going to change things after 2 years I think my jokes about common sense not being very common may not be jokes anymore.

Much like Triangle and the issues people had there, the devs have their own direction and don't seem to want to alter it for anyone.

To be honest I don't think the devs come here.

Their games are very vanilla slice of life stuff. There isn't any drama here.

I have no idea. As far as I know, this is the first time I looked at this thread. I found this VN from another source, even before I knew about F95. Either way, it's a public forum and people are going to post their opinions regardless. Just as much as you might think it's pointless for them to post, it's just as pointless for anyone to tell them not to. They will still do it.

My original post was just me saying that I don't mind if people hate or love it, but the ones that constantly (i.e. every update) post how they find it boring etc and they want it to change, annoying. Of course they have the freedom to beat a dead horse...

I understand that. But also understand that some of these folks started off loving this VN (as I did) and are simply disappointed that there's still really nothing going on story-wise. It's really the same shit each in-game day.

Anyway, I'm not trying to stir up shit here. These back and forths happen every thread and it never stops either side from doing what they're going to do...post what they feel. Based on my memory, you and I have agreed on a lot of other shit in other VNs, so I'll just leave it at this.

Well, one-side polyamory. More like a small harem. And I have nothing against that. What makes the genre worthy of a higher rating? I'm talking about the actual story, plot, renders...things that would make this stick out against similar stories.

How can I ask the question? Well, because I was trying to understand that person's point of view.

I'm going to go one concern at a time.

1) One sided polyamory. How is it one sided? All of the 4 main characters are having sex with the others independent of all the other. Yes they occasionally have multiples, but they are all loving each other one on one, for the most part.

2)Small harem. Yes it is 4 small harems. The MC has 4 willing lovers. Catherine has 4 willing lovers. Alice has.... (etc).

3)What makes the game worthy...? I find it worthy so deal with it. Not your cup of tea? Fine, but it is mine and I love it. Just like I love Triangle.

4)Story, plot, render. I find the story endearing, the plot is a little thin, but it's not about drama, it's about the relationships between the 4 of them. The renders are fine, much better than some, but not the best I've seen.

You don't like it. So stop playing it. I like it so I will continue playing it. And, I'll give it 4 stars.

Why do you care?

I'll stand corrected here. I was looking at it from a hetero male perspective and that's not the case here. Apologies for that.

3)What makes the game worthy...? I find it worthy so deal with it. Not your cup of tea? Fine, but it is mine and I love it. Just like I love Triangle.

That's not how ratings work...anywhere. "I really liked this so 5-stars!" What about it do you like?

4)Story, plot, render. I find the story endearing, the plot is a little thin, but it's not about drama, it's about the relationships between the 4 of them. The renders are fine, much better than some, but not the best I've seen.

What about the story do you find endearing? Just the fact that MC is getting all the girls? That the girls are into each other? That he's a lord? Where is this story going? What's the plot? The conflict?

You don't like it. So stop playing it. I like it so I will continue playing it. And, I'll give it 4 stars.

Why do you care?

Why do you care? That's what I was basically asking all along. I care because for me it started of pretty fun and now it's just the same shit every day. I want more out of something that started off with great potential.

 

[keterboy]

i absolutely love this game!

 

[Try My Patience or Not]

well - i say that this is an OVERrated game.

Even i loved it the first time - i REALLY loved it. The settings, the renders, the girls... everything looked so promising.
BUT:
As mentioned several times before by other players, i have to agree that this game turned into a boring, really boring pice of junk (sorry).
There were so many possibilities wasted to turn this into a gem, but rather than that, it's boring repetitive.
Sleep, breakfast, do some business (minor scenes), have dinner and fuck a girl, while the other is with your wife.
Next day, you stay and fuck your wife, whilst the 2 girls are together.
Next day, you fuck the other girl while your wife is with the first one.
Same repeats over and over again (Groundhog Day).
I mean - hey - your wife is pregnant... and? .... any changes?... any belly? ... nope - still the same procedure every day.

So in fact, i admit that i also stopped playing 3-4 updates ago. Just being over here to see if things change, but again i recognize that there is NO change at all.

Don't get me wrong: i don't hate, nor do i try to flame the developer - i still hope things will change - but for now i again say that at least for my taste, this good game turned into boring shit.

I agree to a point! The storyline doesn't advance very much in this update. Well, except that everyone at the orphanage got some relief, Cathy is starting to "show", Alice is pregnant, and she got new jammies. Not exactly what I would call "many adventures".

So I'm trying this out for the first time and I'm bewildered by the polarizing discussion and reviews. If it's anything like movies, it can be a good thing, means that I will totally either love this game or hate it.

If it remotely seems interesting to you, just try it out and determine for yourself. That's the only way to know for sure.

 

[Spiderfox]

I am also a hetero male, but I love this story. But, kudos to you for your apologies.

Ummm, ratings work however the person giving the rating wants them to work, so yeah....

What about the story do you find endearing? Just the fact that MC is getting all the girls? That the girls are into each other? That he's a lord? Where is this story going? What's the plot? The conflict?

I've already said what I like about the story in my first response to you. "It's a beautiful polyamorous love story"

That's what I was basically asking all along. I care because for me it started of pretty fun and now it's just the same shit every day. I want more out of something that started off with great potential.

Again, why do you care. You started out liking the game and then grew bored, disinterested or exasperated with it. So stop following it and go on to games you like.

You no longer like the game, so why do you care if someone else does like it?

Move on.


Thanks for the facepalm though, it's appreciated.

Averon, we are just not worthy to live in the same universe as you.

NEVER CHANGE. Please, I just couldn't handle it.





this was not facetious

So I'm a few minutes in and I'm kind of wincing a bit at the departures from authenticity of knights and the middle ages. I only know a little bit about medieval history, but I'm quite sure that knights and lords are 2 very different ranks in nobility, and our main guy calls himself a knight and later on others address him as a lord, so presumably he has climbed the ranks because he apparently looks after some region on the border. In that case, a lord would not travel to the capital without a retinue but, eh, a lord does whatever he pleases.

Obviously women very VERY infrequently became squires and especially not at 19 years old which is way too old to start the training. Though I suppose we can hand wave it by saying that the character has already had training from another knight and merely needed to finish her apprenticeship with a well-known knight namely our guy.

However once I decided to imagine that this all takes place in an ahistorical world all is fine. After all, if I were to truly be pedantic I would even say that the sex is wrong because some positions were simply unknown or banned by religion.

cool

 

[ouroboros001]

Plays a porn game and wants realism. Are we to read old English with attitudes even your racist relative you only see on the holidays would balk at? No thanks.

Anyway. What do I like about this game? Didn't I already say? I'm confused. I also do not think you dislike it as much as you say if you are really a person who kept watching for multiple updates. I think you may just be a bit tsundere.

Fine though. My favorite thing is that there's nothing wrong with it to me. Like I said. No NTR fetish stuff. No sharing with other dudes. No scat or urination that I recall. No traps. No rape. Nothing gay. Just a badass knight in a kind of Knights Tale style quite literally for porn with a loving nice small poly harem. The second favorite thing is the real feeling characters whose personality to me really comes out in their dialogue. That's rare in literature period and this has that. Usually writers all have the same voice for every character. It's a common amateur mistake and it's not easy to learn this skill. The plot and everything is Slice of Life. I don't need heavy tension with that. It's nice to have some SOL. Another thing I like is how the substance if you will? Is a slowburn. It's like foreplay. Then I also have somewhat of a vanilla pregnancy fetish I guess? Like if you have alpha Chad and his harem? They all need to get pregnant. But if it's not there that's fine too. There's also a lot of content and dialogue that's set up in a way that's great for pacing. That's a lot of positive in my book that I can't say for every porn game.

There's few adult games I would put up there with this one. I think that one sister's game by pirate something? There's just not a lot. ‍♂

We are comint at you, gamer, we do not sit by and let you rail road on this game.
Other people than the MC always see him as someone to hate, resent, rant about.
Titles of nobility are not discussed and are not announced in the public square.
Activities of the lords and of the ruler are no age speciffic and every time
it is all tied up to a plot/scheme/road map to a goal, a woman, one ally or foe at a time.
They are bestowed in a close circle, get titled on paper and sealed by the ruler.
Nobody sees the paper sealed. A noble man does not ever have to wear a seal
with the title bestowed upon him or a garment or any flashing lights to state:
I be knight or I be lord.
Information carries on from mouth to mouth, so official business is muddled into
what folk tales spread around the individual.

So I'm a few minutes in and I'm kind of wincing a bit at the departures from authenticity of knights and the middle ages. I only know a little bit about medieval history, but I'm quite sure that knights and lords are 2 very different ranks in nobility, and our main guy calls himself a knight and later on others address him as a lord, so presumably he has climbed the ranks because he apparently looks after some region on the border.

You keep listeniong to the insane guy ranting about his insanity and the MC not getting the choice
to ram /catch / cave the asshole head in for the crazy he keeps postulating
waiting for guys he kills to ... what was it ... no look at him funny?

I swear, if they'll go to bathe again next time. I'll freak out. turn into a Because, back then it was customary to wash with a sponge or cloth. Even noble people only took a bath once a week, if at all.
Go hunting, chopping wood, sewing, weaving, building something, make tools, help people, fighting, killing whatever and then fucking after, but pls pls pls no more bathe.
