Not sure for me I tend to not like re-renders as many times the character that gets re-rendered never looks as good as they first did or they get their looks changed and they lose what first drew you in.

This is exactly me as well. I liked parts of PL but it wasn't my cup of tea. A69, however, has some real potential!

I feel like the characters in A69 are more real. This has a [insert age description here] exploring sexuality and trying to be accepted as mature. PL had a daddy's girl who just kind of accepted sex as a form of love because her yandere older sister wanted to be peed on. Nea is an effeminate guy/trans-girl (not sure Nea ever actually clarifies that it's the latter but it's been a long time since .01 was released) who struggles with bullying and being accepted in her family. PL had a guy who turned gay after being raped. I find myself far more invested in the sex and relationships of A69 than I did with anything in PL.

Parental Love did have one great part. Sofi!

Why is Homelander in the second picture in the OP?

That's is the MC for the game I had to paint blot their head out of the pictures when I played it.

Ya i agree, that's happened to other games I've played too. My guess is Luxee will age Eve's character up, hopefully not too much though

I doubt Luxee would increase the characters ages as that is what the patch is for and you don't see them unless you have the patch installed. If they did I would just edit them back anyway.

Considering that in Parental Love they made one of the characters *younger*, I don't think aging up is a concern.

I'm definitely keeping an eye on this one; it's tackling some pretty surprising things, and I'm curious to see where it goes.

First a general complaint. This game is a perfect example of why I generally hate sandboxes. It would be SO much better if it were just a normal linear choice based game. Rattling around randomly clicking locations just in case something pops up. NO reason for this game to use sandbox, there are no options dependant on it. Waste of coding time

Renders are great, I like the story, utterly utterly hate the sandbox.

 

[myuhinny]

I reported the first post and stated that sandbox should be added to the above tags so people that don't like it can go play something else that isn't a sandbox type game.

A fair point. Got discussed a fortnight ago. Seeing as Luxee is open to include an event-only mode, you may still get to enjoy this.

 

[Master of Puppets]

I don't mind sandboxes when they're done well. If there's nothing to do but go to the next person to move the story on then it might as well be a straight VN though. And it's more likely for a sandbox to be a grindfest than a regular VN, there's that too.

 

[myuhinny]

There is no such thing as a grindfest in most renpy games since anyone can edit stats money and lots of other stuff using the console or sites like saveeditonline.com even in most RPGM games you can use the RPGM save editor to edit stuff.

"You can cheat to skip the grind" doesn't mean a game isn't a grindfest.

 

[Luxee]

To be clear. There will never be any grind in the game, no stats or anything.

 

[Havik79]

Good to know, even if your sig is confusing.

Disagree, totally disagree. Nothing is more beautiful then the two blonde daughters there. But tastes differ. And we are getting off topic.

Two daughters were the stars for me too, but when Elly was a redhead Hopefully Luxee introduces a cute redhead in this game too

 

[Elinan]

can you edit the OP with his website etc. so we don't have to go to PL thread to find out. tyvm

 

[Ghostface Reborn]

Not the point.

it's implied.
