VN Ren'Py Completed Bare Witness [Ch. 5] [AlterWorlds]

[TheSidewinder]

Hm... Playing from the start again but wondering how Nicole plays into the mix. I've already rejected Val and Z.

Can you fool around with Nicole without risk of losing out on the SHAM ending?

 

[BeingADikDik]

In my esteemed opinion, ch. 4 was a triumph.

 

[SuperPerv96]

There is no incest with the mom, just cousin.

Thanks for your help!

Mora plays Pathfinder first edition, A woman after my own heart.

Just started but what's the deal with this heidi chick? Is she just mean to the MC whole time? For some reason she wants us to watch her fucking her girlfriend and is disappointed if we don't but if we do she's an asshole about it. Like what the fuck do you want bitch?

 

[ename144]

I played through most of the new update, but my feelings on it are split. I was very impressed by what was there, but I was also very disappointed by what was missing. I've never been a fan of traditional harem games because I feel like it obviates the solo routes when they're just small slices of the combined harem path. Bare Witness doesn't have that problem, but the distinction feels a lot more technical now than it used to.

I'll keep the details in spoilers since this is still brand new.

tl;dr Excellent material for a lot of the possible paths, but the remaining paths are badly overshadowed by it and the main plot developments feel rushed.

Damn, normally I make it a priority to keep it in the family and either only fuck them or at least fuck them first and make everyone else side orders but out of over 1000 AVNs and probably 5,000-10,000 DAZ chars cousin Sadie like the 10th one I've seen purposely made ugly. Not only fat but still with acne too even in her 20's (the dev must be a real sadist). Valeria it is, at least her pussy is kinda hairy and she's hot and doesn't mind sharing.

She's just likes to prank and is overloaded with sarcasm, which is hard to pick up on for some without voice acting it out. I really wish more AVN dev's would pay a few desperate college chicks to do some AVN voice acting, it can't be that expensive if they are willing to do porn on a fake casting couch for less than $1000 a day (sometimes even under $300 a day).

Now that....that was a chapter worth downloading.....MASH is love....MASH is life.

Ahh, fresh blood! Always pleased to see new players.

Sadie takes investment, but pays off in the long run. And she's only (if I recall my own write-ups correctly) 19 at the start of the game. She looks significantly different by the start of chapter 3, so maybe give her a shot.

You make some very good points, and you actually touch on some things I attempted to incorporate into game, but were either outlandishly difficult or Slockie wouldn't let me. Because he's a bastard.

I am also aware of how top-heavy MASH got, and it was a glaring issue towards the end of production on chapter 4. We considered carving away a bit here and there for solo/throuple paths, but ultimately decided against it. We figured the majority of players would focus on HAM or MASH so we kept those scenes intact on those paths. But the discussion to separate them did happen. It's a lesson we'll be taking in to Heaven's Door once BW is complete.

I'm glad to see another fan of Zenda. I think a lot of players gave up on her early in the game, and didn't stick around to discover more about her later on. Which I understand: Zenda's attitude at the start of the game is a bit of a turn-off. It takes time to peel back some of those layers and see the woman beneath.

Thanks for the feedback, and for the kind words. Bare Witness has been a learning experience, and critiques like this help us tremendously.

 

[Canto Forte]

Zenda is such a sweetie. Dunno where the disconnect is,
she instigates good feels right from the start.
Hav ta tell ya tho, Val steals the whole show,
hes fantastic car ride is awesome.

another fan of Zenda

Zenda's attitude at the start of the game

These two absolute bombshells restore hope in this mankind full of selfdestruct.

Damn it ... I should have known there would be a Lexi song ...

... *grumbles about onion ninjas* ...

 

[Jah-Ith-Ber]

Very nice update. Man the Hedi solo path is crushingly sad but the rest are great.

I really like Sadie. There isn't enough cousin incest games. Something about it being the most real world type of incest you could imagine actually happening makes it even hotter then the sibling or father/daughter incest we normally see.

I think MASH turned out really well. Its important for the other people in a poly relationship to have good chemistry and they certainly do. AH ofc are OG couple and HM quickly became very cute together. Sadie was the odd girl out (only really connected to MC) but in the fourseom she seemed to get well with Athena so it was nice to see.

 

[Shadow Emperor]

i really fucking loved playing through chapter 4, ive played through both HAMS & Athena's solo route and imo, i'd say Athena's scenes were my favorite by far! awsome job.

 

[Vualen]

I liked the game very much, especially female characters nice curvy models, quite smotth animations But I really missed sex sounds and moans, this is quite a disadvantage comparing tosimilar games...

 

[Elhemeer]

Well Dayum ... A salute to the Four Musketeers!

 

[Danv]

was hoping update will do something about this scene after Halloween party

there wasn't any welcoming scene for Mora, her moving in, figuring out sleeping arrangements, nothing, she just suddenly appear inside the house after random event like she was already living here for weeks, it just feels like huge wasted opportunity
what is worse - next fucking morning you got wonderful *seven weeks later* on top of that... are you for real? why not skip couple of years while you are at it? i just don't get devs sometimes

 

[sobstorydev_memes]

took me some reading to figure out it is a bait tag. pretty low. game did not need that. it is good without cousin bs, that is poorly written anyways. i can not imagine many people even care about it. it just makes you look like a douche, dev.

 

[Spatenklopper]

First I waited for the SanchoMod and when it was finally there, I haven't had the time to play chapter 4 until now , but I had to look through the gallery.

And now I'm really torn.
As much as I like harem, somehow it just doesn't feel right here, although it's well done.
Every LI deserves to be treated exclusively.

And I have to thank Storm ⛈ and Slockie for getting me more time with "makeup-free Athena", she's so freaking adorable and sweet without it, I could love her to death.

I'm hoping to finally find the time tonight to play the full update, but from what little I've seen so far I can tell you that you've done a great job (once again).
