The idea and the renders were awesome. The execution of the game itself was not. Had he done the simplest Renpy semi-sandbox it could have been great, but that seemingly wasn't his focus.
i clashed with him here years ago about the amount of grind for this kind of game, the RNG at school money sink that could ruin your game if you got 3x max penality in a row the school stuff was toned down but battery and farming the battle stuff grinding the gym , grinding for your membership cards at the bar or the resources to build at the beach that needed grind to be maintained again ...
looks like the work in the game mechanics was a pretty welcomed excuse. for his new game he put out 1 update in 2024 and 3 messages
so i guess its best to close this story/game/dev and dont look back

Yeah, we've talked about that over the years. For whatever reason, it seems that his focus wasn't on making a hot and sexy porn game, but that the porn was just a cover for the ultra grindy RNGfest that was his true passion. As if the true goal was to make the player as frustrated as humanly possible instead of making it enjoyable.

There’s a few devs like this, obsessed with making the player go through a hellscape of repetitive actions, and willing to ruin the story or the premise or the fun in order to fulfill whatever misguided fantasy they have. The guy who did this, the one who did Superpowered, the one who did Patronus (I think that was the title)….

Yeah I gave up on Superpowered almost immediately. An absurd amount of microscopic detail that led absolutely nowhere, and unlike Bastard Girls, where the girls and renders are hot, the ones in that game absolutely are not. So there's not even anything to work towards as a reward.

This "game" is just one sad self-inserter powertrip, I endured 6 minutes of this slop, and even if it was free I feel scammed.

Serial Comics is another dev that does this. I honestly don't understand devs that are like this. They completely destroy any chance their game has with a wider following and making more cash by turn8ng people away with a grindfest. I always abandon every game like that and just rip the CG.

It's has been a problem even before he halted production and believe it or not the original had next to no grinding while this one had to be moded or the dev had to literally patch the rpg mechanics to be more forgiving (good luck with the fights with random dodge and small hit boxes)

it would be good, but no one will do it View attachment 4692713
I agree (and I'm still writing the full script for the kinetic novel and I'm using Godot dialogic which means I need to get models and render images but I honestly need to get a powerful laptop or build a proper pc for the quality and something that won't take 7 hours to render a 4k image) and outside of writing a good/decent story I think it's because abandoned good games like this make it impossible for milkers to exploit and people who expect supporters without proving themselves which is a good thing

It would be better to use the base of the story and try to improve it and then, with the story, create something as close to Bastard Girls as possible, since the original cannot be recovered. Well, that's what I think.

Seriously, do you still believe in this nonsense that the old work cannot be restored? It seems to me more that he simply fooled everyone and decided to make a new grind game mansion of lust. After the unity version failed and more and more people approached the mansion that was in the previous part of BG, he already hinted at a new project mansion of lust, but then they did not attach any importance to it.

here's your confirmation that you shouldn't wait for BGR: School War until the mansion of lust is finished View attachment 4698527
Still disappointing and I actually asked about lore stuff (I obviously couldn't ask for the script and have a commission dev make it and finish the game) but it's still better than the de Luca family being abandoned and everyone is told that it's still going on despite it being five years (give or take it's been very long though) and the only thing that happened is it getting released on steam
