VN Ren'Py A Wife and Mother [v0.215f] [Lust & Passion]

[zh]

As someone who supported Acting Lessons I can tell you that good story, emotions and plot twists were among things people signed up for. Sad emotions were part of the deal just as the happy ones, it wasn't meaningless. It's just not a game for crybabies who whine if their candy's taken away.

Well, Acting Lessons was excellent until 0.5 imo. After this... I don't like to fap around sad emotions but each his own, I suppose.
AWAM was always meant to be a slow game, no ? And the hasty ones can always temporarily cancel their patreons, and come back in 2 years. I guess there will be some sex in two years haha

Ever seen a brazilian series these are the most boring series, that has nothing to do with racism. Just like this game ask first then criticize idiot.

Ok! I understand what you talking about. Its about brazilian drama TV series?

When did Brazilians become a race? WTF do people always want to bring racism into a discussion ?

In the same time when north-americans people became a race.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

This is a script error code for unmatching especification script line. The DEV probably will correct it soon.

 

[satoshi36]

So far, I have actually stopped by here a few times a week. After reading the developer's posts, I'll reduce that to a few times a year.
"First extra-marital sex: playable day 19, every two months a half day, that is, it takes three to four years to get there."

Yeah and that outside marriage sex it will be on a special filthy path the dev said, the fuck is a special filthy path?!?!

 

[armion82]

OK.Still no one will give me that famous list with games in which MC is having sex from day 1?
And please don't give me my list of 5-6 games.

 

[Blockout]

I mean, if you're okay waiting until 2023 (current estimate time of completion based on current update), then it's definitely more power for you. I just don't think it should cost more than a quarter million dollars to finish this game.

Life in Germany is expensive...

OK.Still no one will give me that famous list with games in which MC is having sex from day 1?

Strawman. No one has asked for sex from day 1.

Strawman. No one has asked for sex from day 1.

I know but way too many people said to go and play all these games in which sex is from day 1.So I was curious how many we realy have.

So much anger, rants and bad energy - yet we're all still here, on 514th page of this very thread

 

[January2015]

@Lust&Passion :

- dont be silly - i also live in Germany and a developer/coder earning 3500€ (before taxes) is common, and that is pretty enough to pay for rent, energy and all other stuff you need. mostly people earn about 2300-2400 per month on other (lesser paid) jobs and are also able to live - so dont come up with "facts" which are pure lies!
- MC started to act filthy in the first 2 episodes of the game (to "bait" patreons?) by playing on the movers for example, but after that she acts so prude, that even mother theresa seems to be a whore?
- even if you play the "good wife" path - why does she not have sex with her husband? is that a normal way a wife acts?
- i appreciate your renderings (you have several - maybe to much - assets to render together), but are they worth to wait about 5 years to finish a project?
- appreciate you stick to your believings and dreams, but do not wonder you will get the "payment" from those who believed in your game on earlier state and who are disappointed right now.

FINALLY: again sex scenes: you got so much possibilities to include some "action" even without breaking characters or the story (best example: a good wife is having sex with her husband - BASTA), but it really feels as the pace goes down and down every update.

Based on its current state you can not judge the people to leave your project and maybe have a look again once it is finished, as to pay you 270.000 € ( i took YOUR info - not changing anything = 5 years = 60 months = 270.000$ assumed the 4500$ will be constant for sure)

just to compare: i work full time at "fraunhofer Institute" (you are german too - you know this corporation) as developer/coder and i get 210.000€ (3500*12*5) - so dont tell us that you dont earn enough

STILL LAST QUESTION LEFT:
Based on your own info you make 31 days - so 8 are done = 23 left
Based on the last updates we got 1/2 day every 3 months (i respect your private issues)
let me guess i just double this rate and i concede you 1 full day every 3 Months
that would be overall nearly 6 years
so HOW DO YOU THINK to reach final goal after 3-4 years?

PS: even think that more "private issues" will delay this schedule even farther away backwards!

I dont want to insult you, nor do i want to destroy your dreams or "cut off" those who still believe in an impossible mission (imho) - all i want to do is show you with your own delivered data and facts, that you are wrong!
And believe me - there are lots of people over here smart enough to see whats going on, same as a lots are still over here who believe in god and that you will do miracle, even your own posts refute yourself

best wishes to your "dream project" (maybe nightmare project after all)

Disclaimer: Sorry that i did not Quote the whole data/facts (would be too much work), but you still can find EVERY fakt i used within your own posts somewhere!

Well said. Here is a beer for you.

 

[Radoslaw Wolf]

Well said. Here is a beer for you.

The trend line of his patreons number is still bullish, so...

 

[truerty]

Let us Android folks enjoy the blue balls too

 

[hamlet17]

I want to make few observations.

First, we shouldn’t judge how much donations he should have. People who are making donations have right to decide what game they will support. He is still developing game at steady peace, to slow for most, but steady. Game is not abandoned, as some, who are still receiving donations.

Second, he cannot improve speed or quality or storytelling, above his possibilities, just because he is receiving more money, and finding help is also not as easy as all think.

Also, you cannot compare his work with working in some firm, where firm is providing your equipment and resources, and takes care of your needs. This is also unfair.

I still think that game is not so original and realistic at all to deserve such attention. And he just doesn’t listen to peoples logical and reasonable suggestions, he could easily decrease unnecessary renders by 20-30% and still keep his “vision”. All this talk about “vision” is also funny, like guy thinks he is Martin Luther King…

But pickings of incest games are very slim lately so that is probably the reason for so much patrons.

All that being said, last day was like looking Titanic hitting the iceberg, because, when developer starts to have this kind of bitter discussions with forum, and even mentions private problems and possibility of Patreon ban, this is usually beginning of the end. We have seen it before.

Here's my crunched version.

Image/audio/video quality is reduced to make shit smaller. You've been warned so no bitching.

The point is...as many time passed and months as much as it could be, on Patreons they recieve more and more cash. Sooo...literally...they milking us for money just for 1 pathetic upadate of 5 minutes per 3 or 4 month. Its not about only this game...but lets just say...game was beautiful at the beginning, but due to lack of better updates, it has no point to follow him on patreon. Especially some developers already have finished 3 or 5 updates, but instead to gives u all in one, they gives you 1 per 3 month only to earn more greens. Its a fukin shit man. I aint paying no more for this until I see proper regular updates in limited time. As Angelina Jolie said in Hackers 1995: ''dont send boys to do the girl's job ''

"First extra-marital sex: playable day 19, every two months a half day, that is, it takes three to four years to get there."

Yeah. Too bad, when I first tried it it seemed to have so much potential..and not only with the mother but with the other characters too, the daughter in primis. What a waste.

Calling it out now, L&P will be demotivated because of the community and stop developing the game, resulting in everyone being dissapointed becaus this is absolutely not what people want, even those who are critical of this game and its developer. Think a moment before writing your comment criticising the game, we're all people here with feelings. Everybody can improve in some way but post constructive criticism instead of saying 'game bad, upvotes to the left'.

I doubt about that.If you can be so easy demotivated then you're in wrong business.Gaming industry is pretty harsh.
Also it seems he will try to release updates faster after he resolve his personal issues.
Of course anyone thinking that the game will be finished in 3 or even less years is delusional.
Even if we going to half day each month we are looking for 4 more years at best.

 

[Skylaroo]

Whatever the cost, people a still free to pay, or to get milked, aren't they ? Wouldn't this gamedev be foolish if he were to change anything from the pace of a game worth a quater million dollars ? Some of people wants to milk... while some people likes to get milked to death ! Why spoil their fun ?

I never told you stop being milked if you enjoy being milked. I'm simply saying that it looks like the dev is milking (by purposely not taking steps to improve production despite financially able to). What the patrons did after that is up to them.

I`m honest, i`m not a patron, and L&P is not selling my data, putting some copy protection... he want`s

You must be registered to see the links

and I respect the patrons that support him and wish L&P all the success.

It's ok if you don't care. People are free to do whatever they want with their money. But if I see someone at the casino gambling away all their money, I might talk to them and at least ask them if they're completely sure they want to do that.

Second, he cannot improve speed or quality or storytelling, above his possibilities, just because he is receiving more money, and finding help is also not as easy as all think.

He can purchase another PC. He chose to do so behind the $10k/month patronage goal knowing that it's win-win for him either way. If he reached $10k/month, it's easy money for him. If he didn't reach $10k/month, it's an excuse for him to not improve the speed of his release. In reality, there's no need to wait for $10k/month before investing into another PC.

Finding help is definitely not easy when you don't try to find help and simply believe that you must do everything yourself because other people wouldn't be able to achieve the same quality as if you did yourself.

Also, you cannot compare his work with working in some firm, where firm is providing your equipment and resources, and takes care of your needs. This is also unfair.

Of course we can. Average income in Germany is 34k/year. He's making more than 50k/year.

 

[Higurashika]

Good update. I went through game again with walkthrough to see all content, because first time i had a lack of Dylan's points.

 

[myuhinny]

Script error.

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
File "game/script2.rpy", line 17085, in script
if day14_Sophia_Patricia_didnt_take_vengeance_on_thugs:

You know who Dylan reminds me of after his got destroyed? He reminds of the guy from straight? I never saw the game but have see some of the screenshots. So I'll treat the sin as if he were gay.

Just received a "Please keep it about the game in the OP of this thread, not each other. Thanks"

So in the game context, a developer has to live and there is patronage.

50k/year -

- hardware expenses - utility expenses - you don't have a unemployment if it goes wrong or pension at the end.

It`s not fair to patrons that support him to say they are being milked.
The analogy between an patronage and a gambling addiction, i can`t see the logic, even going though Reductio ad absurdum
