VN Ren'Py Completed Bare Witness [Steam Build] [AlterWorlds]

[Maxus_mudo]

How is this a Harem game? If anything, it's a manslut/cheater game where as far as I've been able to achieve the maximum you can get is two, and that's only because they are already together. Every other ending is the MC going off with one and that's it. To have a 'harem' the LI's must be aware and accepting of the others.

Anyway, aside from that disappointment I found the story and the renders rather good.

There are a couple of throuples but there is also a 3-girl and a 4-girl harem that are available, where the girls are absolutely all aware and accepting of the others.

I guess I must have fkd up somewhere. Oh dear, I'll have to play it some more

It sounds like you've got Heidi and Athena down, so your next move if looking to add to that is to get points with Mora as well and invite her in when she delivers pizza - that starts you on the path to the 3-girl path (aka HAM). You can then add Sadie as well for the 4-girl path (aka MASH). There's also the Heidi–Sadie throuple, which (IMO) is the hardest path to get onto.

That and the extremely elusive, but oh-so-obvious Athena-Sadie throuple path*

*there isn't one ...

Every time, I have to have a sad shake of my head at that missed opportunity.

Every time, I have to have a sad shake of my head at that missed opportunity.

Especially when you find out that Athena loves incest.

That's why it's a missed opportunity

 

[Aztalust]

Well, I never saw myself playing that kind of games. I started playing for the playful opportunities the game provided but... I stayed for the story and the way love is portrayed in the aftermath of your choices. It is possible that playing that game changed my life.

ISSUES WITH THIS GAME

1.Most girls you fuck in this game have small tits.
2. The pacing is way off, there is sex literally 5 minutes after starting new game. Breaks immersion and makes me feel like i didnt earn it. Awful pacing. Kills the game for me.
3. Most sex animations and poses are pretty bad.
4. Why so many closeups of genitals? Literally like 5cm away... Looks awful.

I... didn't find issues with any of that. In fact, I thought a lot of what you said there lands on the positive side of things, if anything. So yeah, they are not issues with the game, just things that don't match your tastes.

Counter-opinion to these:

1. If by "small" you mean realistic and varied in size from probably around a B to F cup, then I agree. Much prefer this to most the LIs having gravity-defying basketball breasts.
2. If you get to Val's sex scene (the first in the game) in 5 minutes, you aren't reading the text. And she has an early scene intentionally as part of her story. As for breaking immersion, some women are very sex forward if they're attracted to someone. Never felt off to me.
3. Personally I didn't think any of the animations were bad, but as the devs' first game they definitely improve over time as you get farther into the game. Same with poses and render quality in general.
4. Honestly never had this stick out to me in any way as a negative.

I've only played this all the way through once so far. After a couple of false starts, I locked onto Mora's path. I did it as a solo-path (I'm rarely into harems, or even throuples), and it was great. Maybe if you're trying to fuck everyone that's where you're running into problems. It isn't really that kind of game.

You can actually do a path where you're sexually involved with 5 out of 6 main LIs without issues (MASH + Val), but it's a very specific path, and you have to either drop MASH or Val before the end.

Sure, I don't doubt it - Personally I had no regrets about the Mora solo route. I didn't feel like I was missing anything. My point was that if he felt there was too much sex, that he probably could have done something about that himself since (as far as I remember) none of it was mandatory.

True enough. Honestly not sure if he was complaining about the amount of sex, or how early it showed up with certain LIs (sounds like most likely this one).

Sounds like they didn't like Val trying to pick up a younger attractive MC at a bar. She literally tells you "if you come with me, we're going to have sex" though, so definitely feel that's on them if they don't enjoy sex scenes unless they "earn" it and decided to follow her anyway.

Edit: By the way, all the endings are very different and good, imo. It's worthwhile doing other paths to see them if other LIs interest you too.

I might at some point, though (for me) Mora is miles above all of the others and I can't imagine playing this and ignoring her.

Mora and Athena compete fiercely for #1 slot for me. But I like poly paths and the ones here are rather well done representations of that rather than generic harem, so I have multiple different endings with them that I enjoyed.

Definitely was hard turning either down to see some of the other endings though. And I still haven't done either Athena or Heidi's solo endings.

Yeah, I liked Heidi and Athena but I'm not really into poli and they already seemed to have a thing going, so I left them to it and went after Mora. It's been awhile but I remember being not all that into the others.

 

[K.T.L.]

I have all sorts of intentions when I start a playthrough but I always end up with the MASH ending - every... single... time...
Just can't resist those girls.
