VN Ren'Py Abandoned Another Man's Wife [v1.092] [Too Perilous]

[JetZ]

Well if they are in to the 3rd quarter of the game, the game isn't long. The last stage has to fit in the endings and the trip and MC's night with Tori etc. The bulk of Tori/Jason/Steph/MC must happen in the next game.

i feel like the whole "steph secret" and tori's game aftermath at least one of them gonna be the canon they gonna bring to the next game.

since if they still stick to their original plan, remember they said back then Tori and Steph gonna be there on their next game playing a role while they gonna introduced a new couple?
but so far i'm just gonna sit and watch how the next content gonna be.

I agree and feel the same. I'm not interested in more games with Steph and Tori. I don't like them as characters. The married women are Steph, Tori and Steph's sister and are all obnoxious. Another married couple is not likely to be any different.

.....There is an opportunity to bypass Tori and Jason and this is where we will pick that line up again.....

faith in fate restored

Wouldn't that be a crazy wrench in the engine if they introduced a new couple who was actually well-behaved and intentioned? One that wanted to guide Steph and MC into the lifestyle at their own pace and comfort?

It's fun to dream tho.

My thought is that in my opinion, there were maybe a little too many expectations from the creators, being a buyer of the game on Steam, I can say that they received quite a few complaints, including yours truly, but I also reiterated that I could still change the my guess if things improved but i'm even more disappointed after they released the feed on the next patch, i'm sure they had very good intentions about the game but maybe they got too carried away in the beginning, they started off too much with a bang, and then they no longer found the thread, too many initial clues, too many strange attitudes from Jason and Sthep, to then realize that the whole discussion had been studied at the table, perhaps barring some drawbacks. but, the new bar, Sthep doing all that talking and feeling offended that her husband asks for certain things, and then being what she is, a Wife created too robotically in the game, and other characters too devious.

Just a thought abnout Steph big secret. What if this is not something from her past but something she want to have happen. Maybe Tori story about the 5 guys is a Steph desire also. Maybe she wants to be in a gangbang ???

forgive me, at this point, if Sthep wants to take away these desires, what's the point of Mc, if you think about it, she's always around for work, even for several days, therefore, all this game with Mc I don't understand it, yes it's a game , but here's one of the bugs in the story, if I think about the receipt and the phone call, I can't help but doubt that Sthep is already fucking with others, I repeat, Mc in this game was set up badly, if you notice it seems more like the narrator, but the other characters go without saying, Sthep is the villain of the game.

 

[packard1928]

I am not sure about that in totality... her being a villan. I some paths she is controlling ... but I still see her committed to her husband, All be it he is along for the ride. But, she still wants him involved. Unless he goes off by himself. Then she get to do the same .. Not sure why she kept him out of the time with Gina in the morning... I like everyone has ideas about her but not sure any of us are right. It kinda makes it fun.

 

[Ilcoriglianese forte]

Remember that he said he spoke to Tori at Christmas, and that she had given him some speeches, and above all, the lingerie collection and how she uses it, the beauty and flaw of the game, lies precisely in the way Sthep behaves , wanting to involve her husband is just her way of commanding, she loves to command, and she knows that her husband doesn't have the balls to argue with her, Sthep is more than what they make us out to be, when Mc wastes time on one of the routes and arrives late and finds Sthep and Dommy fucking, MC can't help but decide for himself, to stay, or leave, coincidentally, if you decide to go back to the bar, it's game over, coincidentally, Stthep finds a sneaky excuse as an answer, he says who was overwhelmed by dommy, but her husband finds it strange because she is the one in charge. let's also tell the truth, the day he wants to know about the phone call that Sthep makes in the living room, not in private as he says, you listen to that in the conversation, all of us would have reacted like Mc, because Sthep instead takes it personally, MC can't having secrets proves it by saying about the threesome, but she does, after she fucks Dommy. hahahahha

I'm going to drop the cynical bomb here and posit the following:

After reading the latest update, if this story ends as quickly as implied, then off to succeeding branches, will they charge for each one as a new game? BTW, what do they charge for this over on STEAM?

Although I try to give many of these devs the benefit of the doubt when it comes to releases and have never complained in any thread about "milking", it is obvious is a few cases that's exactly what's going on. I'll be curious if this game is on the cusp of a wave of AVNs that will employ this method (ie, small-sized 'games' in a series) to rake in more moolah. Can't say that I blame them, but if successful, will likely see more of this.

I've been meaning to ask you, SoL...

How many people do you have manning that account? You're everywhere and at all times. You've got your fingers in so many pies I don't see how you have time to eat.

It is me, myself and I.

I mean you've got this thread here: Game Compression Requests 2.0, a lot of games come from being requested, and asking to be compressed, others I stumble upon when I know an update is close, others I buy, funny though, my play time in this game is crazy....

I agree. The games started with Steph as this cool and exciting wife and things happened and it was done well even the fuck ups were included that can be made by couples entering the lifestyle. That was all awesome. I was blown away. Then suddenly Steph is this erratic antagonist over night and seems the entire Friday night and 3some thing, is all bullshit. With the way the ''confidence'' mechanic works, that is partly responsible for Steph's erratic bi-polar BS, but even on high confidence all the way she is still an intolerable character.

I am not sure about that in totality... her being a villan. I some paths she is controlling ... but I still see her committed to her husband, All be it he is along for the ride.

Yep speculation is fun.

You highlight one of the problems with the story going ahead for me.
Steph loves to be in control and has no problem keeping MC out of the loop when it suits her. She says other wise but her actions and words don't match up. Tori has certainly indicated MC will be regularly left out of their games. And it is why the original 106 update had a backlash, the player is left out and disrespected. We don't matter. We are just a side piece in the story. No thanks, I want to be in the story playing the game, not out in the bleachers missing half the game.

The devs did say on Steam they need to make money off the games so you are probably right, chapters passed off as independent games to tell one VN. This was less than $10 AUD so they aren't making anything of this game at this point but they will later on. I can live with that model in VNs if it doesn't become blatant price gouging.

Just a thought abnout Steph big secret. What if this is not something from her past but something she want to have happen. Maybe Tori story about the 5 guys is a Steph desire also. Maybe she wants to be in a gangbang ???

Well Tori and MC raised the gangbang issue and MC says lets not do that yet so we know its going to end up there at some stage in one of the games ahead and that just doesn't do anything for me. A heap of animations of Steph fucking a train of guys boring as all shit, some people want that and that is fine for them. For me that crosses the line from erotic enhancement of a relationship to humiliation of a relationship, not my thing.

 

[Nurikabe]

I enjoy short games that are "to the point." As long as the story makes sense, is entertaining, and does not feel like it is just a way to charge for the next game and the next...

I am open to seeing these characters in a new setting. The story, while it hasn't gone where I thought/desired, is done well and comes from a mature, adult place.

The game is not expensive on Steam. If they had a Patreon, I would've contributed. There are many other games that are being developed that I subscribe to. I have certainly paid the developers of those games far more than I would ever spend on a AAA studio game. So, spending a few dollars for a short, entertaining, mature game like this is worth it. Even if it wasn't what I thought.

Thank you for more or less sharing my thoughts, I repeat I don't like shooting at things just for the sake of it, I play and replay first, I'm a long-time gamer, on PC, console etc. imagine that even the great triple AAA titles on the normal market have story flaws etc, and those cost you, they don't expect perfection, they are games to have fun about sex, but I believe that precisely because you create a story, then you should create it in a more accurately, in my opinion many of the creators make the same mistake in games with complex stories, they create episodes one by one, instead of creating a complete draft for them, then developing it. but my thoughts

I'd agree 5 bucks is a pretty reasonable price point which pre-empts any cries from me of them milking poor saps for cash, hell they could even go up to 10 and I'd feel the same (I hope they dont read here lol)

Point is - even buying 3 of these games would be under 30-40 bucks, which is unfortunately a very common amount one would pay to be a sub of many games over the period of a major update (~6-8 months @ say 5 bucks/mo)

pretty early on when you go to the shop , the game needs a better way to find the coofee and cinnamon rolls area , either move the circle higher next to the part where the pancakes , toilet paper etc is or when go down the aisle past Amber there is a right turn that goes to the coffee area as well . maybe the creater can add i another update

I'll be heading over to the "Compression Requests" thread - but this game is 5.2G for the initial release!

Several folks have posted about it, including myself (x2). But the devs don't come here and there's not much we can do about it. Sooner or later someone on STEAM will get through to them and maybe they'll use less archaic codecs to create their CG.
