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

[Cronolento]

I loved this game, but it is turning into something different, storywise and lewd content wise. It is weird for me that without knowing Jenny she let MC play with her boobs on the first chapter, but now it is difficult to give a kiss? That's weird. On the other side it feels too forced the lack of sexual content. Dev was advancing very well until chapter two, but now, with a lot of content and opportunities is like the dev push too hard to back off. Same with script, story went into another direction. It seems to me dev sold something on the first two chapters different from what we're seing now.

Eventhough, amazing renders, finally dev is the creator and he is free to do what he thinks is best with his work, this is just my opinion as a player. Let's wait and see how this evolves

Once again this game is kinda schizophrenic. The whole cartel thing felt completely out of place, it takes itself way too seriously for what it is. Like rape and murder for background wasn't enough, the author had to put a whole mafia's plot swallowing all characters. Many characters like Ashley don't fit at all to the subplot, it's like merging Gossip Girl and Criminal minds.

Adam is fucking cartoonish, he just lacks the maniacal laughter to complete all the rich arrogant villain's cliches. It's not like Tybalt who's played for laugh. No we're really supposed to take him seriously but the character is laughable in a bad way.

And for the love of God, just stop with the Haaaaaaa, Smooch every time two characters make out.

I'm probably in the minority but this update felt pretty meh. Nice character story/development, but all I remember is stuff about Valery, the other parts were just unmemorable. Some of the emotional scenes felt pretty bleh.

Same... I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that anyone familiar with literary elements can see from a mile away this Cartel storyline has no stakes.

Valery is a main LI, she won't be touched and if so it'll be temporary.
The MC is the MC, it's like expecting Naruto to die in a show called Naruto.
Jenny is a main LI, she won't be touched and if so it'll be temporary.
So on and so on...

At most the dev will introduce some new character that they'll quickly build up just to kill them off. This is why I can't do slow burns, they're never written well enough where you can't use occam's razor, chekov's gun, etc. to figure out what comes next with near certainty.

It looks like I might be passing on this game after all after this post. A cartel? really? What the hell is it going to be next? I thought this was going to be just another college game with the typical BS that goes along with it, but a fucking cartel?

Darkdevil66, I think you just convinced me that there's nothing to see here and should move on from this game because if I played the new chapter and saw this, I'm sure I wouldn't even be posting in this thread right now and would have it Unwatched and Ignored.

Really good update (outside of the currently lacking Chapter 3 ending), easily the best yet

Especially the small deviations in scenes depending on your path and past interactions is fairly impressive. That eye for detail in minor interactions is fairly uncommon in the usual smut VNs. The dialogues are also much more natural and extensive than what we are used to and the transitions between scenes are among the best I have seen in an Adult VN yet. Minor exceptions are a few overdrawn characters that feel like "plot devices" and less like actual characters - like Adam. But we will see if this gets addressed in the future. And as sad as it is, I guess there might be people like this out there for real.

Also very good music choice that sells the mood and the scenes. Happy this game is going into a more serious direction, if this keeps up I might even recommend it to some people outside the adult space.

Ashley has decent content and cute scenes you'd probably enjoyed tho But yeah, I bet you'll not be fond of the main plot.

Yeah if the main plot is going to go down the rubbish rabbit hole then there's no lure for me to keep playing. I love stories in these types of games, but if that's how this game is going to go story-wise then no thank you. Three chapters in and it already sounds like three different games

That moment when you look for updates and see an EGame you like just got updated but...

invite's expired. what's the difference in the numbers on the cheat mod?

You must be registered to see the links

There is no any difference just casually I wrote

 

[AJCasino]

Can I kill Jenny's brother yet? Or is it too soon?

Patience young one, the perfect time will come soon enough. Of course what sweeter revenge would it be to marry Jenny and the will dictates she inherits everything

 

[AJCasino]

to soon my brother but don't worry . we will snap his neck like a twig

Or just make a little phone call to our dearest DeLuca, Luna

 

[AJCasino]

Bad news for you chief... Unless there's a lot more content the dev is planning on adding in the later versions, the 4-5x Jenny throws herself at the MC he pretty much shuts her down even when you're on her path.

Considering what they've already done in CH. 1 it was weird

Do not forget the great scene in the fitting room, unless the MC is dreaming or in that case having a nightmare. Why the heck would the moron shut her down at any rate?!?!?!?!

 

[Jojopo]

This isn't a harem game, because I clearly have to choose between one of the girls.. If I'm on valery's path I can't protect jenny But if I am on Jenny's path valery won't open up that much and I can't protect her...

Yeah it has the harem tag but the game itself isn't designed to work as one at all. I guess I'm lucky I stick with one girl, for the time being anyway. I'm not entirely sure I like were this is heading.

 

[Jojopo]

Yeah School setting tag will turn into graphic violence tag

Question for those getting frustrated with the harem tag and wanting/expecting the usual easy harem paths that so many other harem games usually offer.

It's been stated that the Dev has indicated that the harem tag will ultimately apply to the game but not in the usual context one is used to seeing it applied, or something along these lines anyway.

That being said, are you wanting to be able to get all of the girls in a single playthrough, a majority of them in a single playthrough, half of them in a single playthrough or what exactly?

I'm not too worried about the harem intentions of the game as that wasn't a major selling point regarding it for me and tbh, the way the character's current paths are playing out, I wouldn't expect to get both of the main girls (Ashley and Jenny) in the same playthrough anyway. Maybe Jenny and some of her crew but even then, not all of them either.

Unless you are really leaning one way for a particular girl, would most of you not want to play through the game again trying to end up with another of the game's girls instead?

Myself, I've been partial for Valery up to this point while at the same time, leaning towards Ashley as well. Played up to the end of Chapter 2 only so far myself still and got

I'm hoping that won't cut me off later on from advancing Ashley's relationship options but only time will tell if that ends up being the case or not.

great update after this one would say Val is my new number 1

Well yeah I try that already I can protect valery at the same time I can be with Ashely. But Im talking about jenny and Valery.
For the Harem my intention is to protect them not just doing lewd stuff. As I have said you can't totally protect them if your not in their paths
I like the story not gonna lie but It seems that to me the dev is trying to merge BaDIK and TDF.

 

[Shadow66]

Any chance we can get a update patch so I don't have to spend a whole day to download the new version?

It is a bit of an amalgam of the two. The first chapter is like a slice if life, where you deal with loss and prepare for a new stage of your life, meet new people. Then chapter two if tries to be some sort of criminal mystery with drug trafficking, I guess?

It's all over the place and it's trying to be too many things at once. I haven't played chapter three yet but from what I've read it changes even more again. It already needs more tags than what are listed.
