VN Ren'Py Abandoned A.O.A. Academy [Ch.5 Gold] [TLGGAMES]

[seniorboop]

This game seems to have a decent amount of hype to it but without any scenes I haven't touched it since my initial playthrough.

Dont think my interest will survive past ch. 3 if there's nothing there.

Take the time you need. You've got a wonderful game here, so don't let outside pressures push you into rushing things. Do it right, and keep up the great work. And thanks.

I sort of agree here. What I'm waiting for is Jenny's, well, Adam's party to be over with just to get the hell away from her and focus on Ashley. A lot of stock with me still playing this game is going to ride on what happens in the new update.

Slow burn AVNs live and die by the strength of their characters and how invested you can become in their stories. Summer's Gone has no sexual content yet, but is beloved despite that and has slightly more updates than A.O.A. If the LI stories grow stale, formulaic, or otherwise don't hold much emotional weight in A.O.A. while retaining a slow burn, then interest will probably begin to wane. I'm optimistic that with good writing this won't be a problem.

To all of the guys that recommended BsDIK to me back then, I really appreciated that, it is enjoyable.

Comparing these 2, they're similar yet so different. A.O.A's story is really relaxed and the path is quite straightforward, at least for now which BaDIK is totally opposite lmao. Gotta say that sometimes it's giving me a headache during my playthrough.

Yeah I gave up on that game as it reminded me of why I didn't want to go away to college. Too much drama and way more than enough to rival the daytime soaps line-up. AOA is much more relaxed and enjoyable; no stupid mini-games, tests, mansion rebuilds, etc. The LI routes seem easy (for now) and it looks like we're going to have a nasty time of it in Chapter 3 most likely surrounding Valery (or Jade?)

I do like the fact though they took one girl from that game and made her partially into two here, both of which I really like but are not my main LI.

Actually, I think we have 3 of them, 2 main LIs and 1 side.

About BaDIK, the minigames are avoidable, you just choose before starting the game, and of course BaDIK is totally a parody, it has nothing of a real college setting, the DIKs are quite stupid and the HOTs too. It's a college where the average QI is under 60 i guess!

Which is one of those things i've never understood about the adult VN community.

There are a handful of good writers in the amateur AVN space but...

If a lengthy interesting plot with unpredictable twists, great characterization, and a large body of content is what you're looking for why are you trying to find it in a space filled with amateur writers, the same (or lightly edited) oversexualized Daz3D models, and predictable (or straight up nonsensical) plots?

There are myriad forms of media by professional creators that will give you everything you're looking for to a higher degree of quality minus the adult content, or lack thereof in the case of some VNs.

This is the rift i've noticed personally lurking this forum. The split between guys that... for some reason refuse to just read/watch a good book/movie series vs. the people who only see VNs as niche variety porn. The two camps seem to disagree across this forum daily on the direction of most VNs.

The main problem of those games/stories it's that many dev just see an occasion to make some money. When you see that some guys can get more than 20 000 a month you understand why.
So most of thoe games are just copy paste stories with the same models, the same settings, the same props and so on.
Sometime you get a good writing, but it's quite rare, devs prefer to use standardized plots that already got success like the over abused school setting, returning young guy who fucks his family, father killed by goons and many other such clichés!

Mini-game BS aside, I only played the game for one LI and after through hoop after hoop for 7 chapters and what I think is a very bad story, I had enough. I knew certain stories were going to intertwine in a way and I don't want that drama. With this game I get my main LI quickly and I hope to the VN Gods that no bullshit with Adam comes in-between me and her.

To me, that party is the biggest thing bothering me with this game and Adam's involvement with the MC's life. Chapter 3 is going to make or break whether or not I continue with this game.

Yes i'm also worried about that party, i just hope we will not get some drama shit and Adam behaving like the big bad guy with a twisted mind as in a bad Z rated movie!!

Adam's going to fuck over Jenny, which means the MC will probably have to be involved in helping her, keeping his attention away from whoever he wants, in my case, Ashley. I think, in that way, he'll fuck with the MC as well as Jenny, and possibly go after whoever the MC is involved with..? Speculation it is but it seems plausible.

I guess the party will be the starting point of some drama, where you and Jenny will get fucked good, but you will search a way to stop Adam and i guess it will be the other guy with the sick daughter who also is involved in the familly business who will help.

Yup the party is one big clusterfuck by Adam and hopefully it won't take that long for him to get his comeuppance.

I think many of us hope to find those "diamonds in the rough," and encourage their development. There is something of value in supporting the "homegrown amateur" developer. For many, I think it is also the interaction, either here or on the developer's own forums, where we can get a glimpse of the creative process.

lol Well, I enjoy a good story and characters with depth and complexities, so it doesn't really matter who the creators are in terms of their actual profession (whether they are professional or amateur writers). I mean, why would that even really matter as long as I am entertained by a good story and compelling characters?

As long as the story & characterization grips the individual (me, the one who experiences it) that's all that matters, so the form of entertainment itself (whether it's a movie, book, comic, game, as well as AVN games) I feel is of no consequence.

 

[Space Cat]

Yup the party is one big clusterfuck by Adam and hopefully it won't take that long for him to get his comeuppance.

Following along what you guys have been saying, I do hope as well that the party will be interesting enough to keep people engaged in the story.

That is, for it to have more conflict involving Adam, and more sexy times with my beloved Jenny, during and/or after the party's chaos ensues. Or whatever it is that's going to go down.

I don't know, maybe we'll get the chance to slap Jenny's brother ín the face or something and things will get violent with his bodyguard intervening. (Hence, why I once suggested for the MC to learn some kind of martial art.)

'Cause I don't see our guy outsmarting anyone, any time soon.

 

[Kukipett]

Oh i guess how the party will go on. There will be some polite discussions, some dance, then Adam will make his speech and announce the bad news.
Jenny will certainly get mad and there will be some scandal then she will storm out with you and the girls and you will have to think about how to solve this problem. Punching Adam would be the most stupid thing to do, prove that you are a dumbass peasant who thinks he can solve his problems by punching people!! He would press charges against you and you would find yourself in jail the next day. Expelled from the college, stuck in a cell waiting for Jenny to pay to get you out and with no place to go.

We can just hope that jenny will keep her house, but as Adam said it's not sure, maybe you will all have to go live in a hotel and start to look for a job, maybe in Jenny's restaurant.

 

[Tadpol]

I haven't played for a long time, so I had to forget things. But Jenny explains that she has personal resources (like the restaurant). She used the family's money to invest in her own name. So if her brother succeeds in removing her from the inheritance, she will still have comfortable financial resources.

However, we do not know what will happen with the university. If she doesn't keep her power over college (shared with her brother), it's going to be hard for her and everyone close to her.
