VN Ren'Py Away from Home [Ep.1-25] [vatosgames]

[Liam the Handyman]

So why not finish the game first and AFTER that remake the stuff that "needs" or he wants to remake, as he most likely will get better once again or have access to even better computer at the point when the game is done? Oh, that's right, because he lost his appetite for the game long time ago already. From monthly updates to couple updates a year, and like said earlier, the game really took turn to a downhill after the episode where Nora got the D.

There are a number of devs who are doing that for their own various reasons. Maybe he is trying to do a steam release, maybe he has found the way to make the perfect ass on his girls, who knows. But he is not the only one doing this.

Nevertheless, he still delivers. Might be slower than in the past yes, but which dev is "fast" unless its a dev who releases small incremental updates? Most devs i see take 3-4 months every update and its common for more.

On the last note, i don't think game went downhill after Nora took the D... in fact the latest update kinda suggest that things are gona pick up again soon. TBF, its not possible for all scenes to be as good as that particular Nora's scene... that was epic lol

Any artistic creation will have a lack of inspiration period, independent producers of our forum at the same time there are practical problems affecting the creative efficiency of the problem.
English is not my first language, so my expression may not be clear, but you should understand what I want to say.

AND , Even if the author announced abadon tomorrow , I'll keep it on my hard drive too , because the existing content is good enough to be a classic .

 

[Abhai]

while i agree that vatos is one of the most reliable guys/devs around, the previous and this year are showing all classic signs of devs losing interest in their games.
for everyone included probably it would be for the best if he finishes this game in few more updates, thus giving a proper closure...and only after that o move to his next project, if he has it planned and/or feels saturated with this one, or to remaster/redone this one if he and his supporters are up for it.

and speaking of plot quality and similar stuff -hell, for me personally, all those arent that important, as long as our mc gets his chance to help those few more hot milf he has in the waiting line.

p.s.
and certainly glad to see rainbows-peachy-peachy cult has appeared as well
lol

no doubt there.
one of few games with a lot of hot content and worth every mb on hdds.

There are a number of devs who are doing that for their own various reasons. Maybe he is trying to do a steam release, maybe he has found the way to make the perfect ass on his girls, who knows. But he is not the only one doing this.

There are one or two devs that I can think of who have a legitimate reason to remaster their game before completing it. Most devs remaster due to loss of interest in their games. Saying he's not the only one doing it is not a good thing.

When is the update
Then ?

 

[Liam the Handyman]

Expected release of ep1 remaster is on the 7th but i will take it broadly and just say next week is the likely release date.

I am aware of at least 3 active(ish) devs whose games i follow/complain about (lol) that they are remaking/remaster (idk whatever they wanna call it). And tbf, in all 3 cases, there were clear quality differences after the remake.

Vatos doesn't talk much in his posts, so tbh i won't know whether he is tired of AFH or otherwise but imma give him the benefit of a doubt nevertheless. I am still looking forward to breed the entire neighborhood.

Edit: Sharing a sample of one the new changes he posted; i ss-ed the old version to show the difference

The quality jump is hardly noticeable. If you wanna see a real difference check out Where It All Begun and Shut Up And Dance. As I said before there's absolutely no reason for a remaster.

In your opinion.

 

[Xumeey]

In your opinion.

Anyone who can see can tell the difference in quality jumps between all three games.

You do know that there are other possible reasons for remaking parts of a besides quality improvements?
it doesnt really matter anyhow since vatos made this decision and is going through with it, nothing we can do about it.

And what are the other reasons?

 

[DickMcFuck]

And what are the other reasons?

oh boy,
-plot issues
-technical improvements
-adding things that were initially left out for whatever reason
probably some more but these are from the top of my head
as i said it doesnt matter anyway, its decided and no ammount of complaining on a pirate forum will change it. im sure there are better uses for your time.

be my guest buddy, cry your eyes out and see if it does anything. i really dont give a fuck, waste your time all you want.

For a person who claims not to give a fuck, you still seem to give a fuck enough that you have to continuously mention it in every single possible moment that you don't give a fuck... If you really wouldn't give a fuck, you wouldn't answer to the comments that don't align with your opinions. Yet you still do answer.

Sure.

I'm quite surprised by that remark tbh... it looks quite obvious to me and thats just from the backshot/buttshot... but i digress...

Also tbf, when ocean and boring mentioned they wanted to remake/remaster, they did bring it up much earlier and in more detail as compared to vatos but i do recall people being peeved as well then (more for ocean iirc but its been some time lol).

Like i said, vatos doesn't communicate as much which i understand can lead to some negative interpretations of his intentions. Nevertheless, since the remastered update is dropping next week, the best way is to let it speak for itself.

 

[DrakeTLD]

Quick question, is the OP with the DL links not showing up for anyone else? Shows me posts starting with the #2 posts, odd.

 

[Horny Toad]

So I just started this, and playing it without the incest mode. I thought the little story of one being your maid, and the other an old family friend is good. But now I got the family friend saying she's the landlady and the MC is the tenant. WTF? So does it continue like that or maybe the remastered first episode will change that? I thought that was a waste of a good start, without it being the usual landlady thing. Should I wait for the 1st episode to come out and start again or either see landlady for the 17 chapters, or just don't bother playing.

Doubt the rework is gonna change anything about that. This is supposed to be a incest game which usually creates some silly stories if the patch isn't used. Dev's rarely put any time to make the non-incest story make sense since it's just a placeholder until the patch is applied.
