VN - Ren'Py - Because I Love Her [Ep.1 P1] [The Typist]

-EDIT: Updated rating to 3 stars after having played most recent version. When I first played the current remake, it was indeed very very short, thus my review below was accurate. Now, the same comments stand, but without the gripe about length.


I look at all these other reviews and wonder if I'm playing a different game, or clicked wrong download link by mistake.

The entire game is like 20 minutes long, no? There's maybe 5 major scene groups. Whether you like or dislike the story doesn't really matter because it's over in a few minutes.

I guess if I had to be objective the render art is good, and dialogue sounds believable, but again, I must repeat myself, it's like 20 minutes long! I suppose it's a good start to a project, but this is nowhere near even a partially completed game, it feels like an alpha teaser of an alpha.

New version of the game is really good as of now and the game have really good character 's but the developer need be constant it updated or else some news about the game in this of version we can final have some good romance path good for non ntr fans compared to last version this version is really good hope the developer won't rush this game

Well this one is difficult to review. Generally it has nice genders a pretty attractive females. The story in chapter one is interesting but has a lot of flaws. For example John sometimes behave totally pathetic and sometimes like fully in control. There is a lot of options but just few which directs you where you want the story to go. In chapter 1 is poorly managed sex scenes. Like one click is starting the scene and the second "finished, i needed that". Chapter 2 has improved this scenes but so far the story is barely related to chapter 1 and not really catching for now.

New version is all about character building and making a better story. Also splitting the romance (non-ntr) and ntr path so they are basically two different games. This way, those who want romance will never have to deal with ntr whatsoever, while those who want ntr, will get plenty of it on a different path. Now they shouldn't mesh together like before.

Writing the review about chapter 2 which is a remake of the whole story we have seen so far and in comparison with the previous game its a totally different experience for example the renders are very high quality the game offers way more choices that change the flow of the story NTR is avoidable and balanced .If you had a bad experience with the previous game i recommend trying the new version the creator has done a pretty good job in this one .

Unfortunately, this game has bigger smoke than flame so far ..and compared that it's already a remake, it became quite faint. I'm not saying there's a problem with the basic story, but so far it’s almost exactly the same as the previous game started.
You have a beautiful girlfriend, Claire, who starts going to the gym with Olivia while the MC is usually asleep until two in the afternoon. You also have a roommate, Jenni, who you can peek at times while she change.

There are already a bit more actors in the game than in the previous one, but on the amount of content and the pace of the game, it is clearly visible that focusing on the love and the NTR route at once is already too much stress for the dev.
As an NTR fan, I can't really talk about the harem path, but so far neither about NTR, because it's not really exist in the game (yet). But in fact I wasn't really bothered coz of this, because there is nothing wrong with a story (even if it's NTR) what is building up slowly and gradually. The problem is more with the lack of creativity on the NTR line.
I'm not exaggerating if I'm saying that the previous game was much better then this second one in many ways until the arrival of the succubus (or rather until Claire's first real sex scene with Darryl). The story in the previous wasn't so lifelike everywhere, but it wasn't boring for a minute. And unlike the second.. on the first game you had that feeling yet, the dev worked on it without any pressure.

Overall, the second game so far is like it not being able to step out of the shadow of the old one. Ofc it's also starts on the same disappointing interracial way, where Clare meets the biggest black bull in the town, and then the chemistry starts working among them right away. But the difference in both games is that in the second one as I said earlier, we barely have real NTR content so far, and the story rather looks like the dev is just already rushing through the events, coz unlike in the first game, he doesn’t want to get stuck already on the details, which could maybe improve on the story.
While in the previous game we could experience those exciting NTR feelings like the cheating, jealousy, or just simply the risk of being caught in the shower with Darryl ..until then in the new game, Claire, almost from the nothing just suddenly brings up the topic as an idea, she should try some fun with other guys as well. And the MC's reaction was like.. yes Babe why not..
The game got to the point almost without any precedent... It’s like they’ve been in an open relationship since the beginning.. But if so, why does the game ask about the NTR content, if it's actually just a swinging one?!

But towards the end of the second chapter we still have a little netorase event, where Claire shows herself half naked to perfect strangers in the park.. but seriously... Cmon dev.. you are much more creative than this..
But even that one scene was ruined by the one sentence from Claire: "My boyfriend is watching us". This made the whole scene embarrassing.

Unfortunately the game was nowhere near as good as I expected, but it is still in the beginning, so it may improve. I really hope that the game will finds its way back to the path I loved so much in the first one.

Seems like an great NTR game, with actual consent from both parties. It looks great and plays well, but the story hasn't progresses much, so I can't give a verdict on the plot. The characters look great, but they don't seem that unique. But good looking NTR games are a rarity, and this one is pretty good.

Version 1.0

Story 1/5
Plot 0/5
Script 0/5
Character Development 0/5

Game offers tons of kinks and fetishes yet wont let you pick which ones you want and you dont. Despite saying some are "optional".
Its a 1 route game no matter the choices. Even if it doesnt give you the scenes, SCRIPT says youre down that route.

Its like "playing" a kinetic novel of a cuck's diary.
Male Protagonist? Female Protagonist?
You should stick to one protagonist, that way you can learn FLEXIBILITY of choices to live up to the expectations of the many kinks you were offering before the game starts.
Less choices, one kink. Cuckoldry.

Despite having a Harem as a plus, game failed on its main heroine.

Version 2.0

Story 2/5
Plot 2/5
Script 4/5
Character Development 0/5

The NTR is still the same. Sharing/Swinging.
No cheating. Its the same old cuckoldry from the first version.
No FLEXIBILITY.
Even if the cheating is somewhere near the future, it wont matter.
The Male Protagonist is totally a cuck based on the script.

Sorry but its really not my cup of tea.

Character Development is still nonexistent, unfortunately.
Female Protagonist completely changed on her own, real quick.
They say theyre not gonna remember a thing since theyre drunk, yet they did, VIVIDLY.
Worse of all, it changed them completely.

Im starting to think the game is just a quick fap for cucks.

Amazing upgrade on the renders though.
The script really improved too.

I understand I left the NTR option on ON but it would be nice if I got to pick if the MC likes it or not, because so far he seems to and if the GF wants to do something daring and/or with another stranger the MC has no say it it or replies with something vague like "I don't know, maybe"

Also, not a complaint but would be nice if there was some ACTUAL cheating like going behind each others back's and not telling the other party. But overall I like the design of characters, nice music, plot hits..most of the time.

TL;DR: Nice start, would appreciate more variation, mainly with what to see and not see.

Review of v2.0 Ch.2

A VN with very potential about a young couple who are together since highschool and is in player's hand the future of these relationship. With two chapters released so far, the story already make a good groundwork and build-up to open interesting and trilling paths for the two protagonist varing from pure monogamous love to sharing and others kinks like exhibitionism.

The writing is good with some few grammar mistakes, the pace and writing of lewd scenes is well-made with good dose of erotism. The renders and character models are beautifull, you can really fall in love for them. Especially for the female MC Claire and her sister Zoey.

Game also can be played in two distincts path: A NTR-enabled path and NTR-disabled path. So, if you like NTR/corruption, this game worth a try. And if you like romance/love, this game also worth a try.

I've been playing both version and I think they are great. Revamp version are much better in opinion, the quality of the render, beutiful character, story & other things give a huge positive boost, if you're somebody who like NTR or Swinging this is for you, and for vanilla fans... well yeah, there's vanilla route as well.

This is based on the revamp. Hopefully things are settled with the Typist because this is a significant improvement on story and direction. I like the idea that this brings as far as the players agency in the NTR level. You can ignore it, go in as a willing participant, or truly get cucked if that's your desire. Option are really what make this work and increase replay-ability. Looking forward to the future of this game.

The first version of the game was already very good even i had to install a lot of mods and patches which i found on different palces in the net to make every path work without errors.
But the version 2 now is really just amazing.. Te characters are great ,ade and look more beautyful. The scenes are hotter and trhe approach to different fetishes/paths is different and even better in my opinion.
Also the integrated gallery is a nice welcome feature .
I hope the dev will enjoy making and finishing this game and i am very excited to play future updates.

Tested v1.0

[This review contains spoilers]

So, this game has two great qualities:
- Renders. The women are absolutely gorgeous and super cute.
- Sharing/NTR. Most of the game here are one guy romancing all the women and it really closes the door to awesomeness (spit roast for example).

For the rest, it's actually pretty lame. At some point the story is going downhill fast, as if the dev started drinking alcohol. I stopped caring when they introduced "haunted house" and succubus.

Also, it's actually pretty hard to find any kind of immersion. Jenni, for example, saying she never dated anyone and no one had ever made a compliment about her appearance. Then, a few scene later, you see her in an extremely slutty outfit that doesn't match AT ALL the character that was introduced.

Same for the main girl. Introduction insists about the fact she is shy and pure, but turn into a slut at the first occasion.

Too bad, this game could have been a real gem.

Version 2.0 is a demo version of the rebooted game, it changed from "only NTR route" to "Where your choices will lead you route", and that's what changes a good game into an excellent one.
The game is very promising and TheTypist is a very talented artist.
I advise trying this game.

Fine graphics, story is interesting. Keep it that way. Keep it slow and sexy, dont rush. In further updates involve some incest. Could be more interesting.
In far away update you could input some pregnancy sex with swinging. Good job for now.

About the [v1.0]
I have not read the previous reviews, so I'm sorry if I don't write anything new..
I'm not saying it's a bad game. Personally I love the NTR stories the most, and the love routes in these kind of games I feel just wasting of time ...but even in NTR, there are expectations and boundaries..

This game starts off great, but what I liked best that the story was build up pretty well. I loved the way the game gradually introduces me into the world of NTR, and as I progressed, I increasingly felt this was going to be my favorite NTR story I had read so far.
...And then, came the cold shower....
Your little innocent shy girlfriend, who the previous day did not even know what infidelity means, suddenly finds herself in the middle of a porn movie shooting, as protagonist. It's true there are more endings besides this, but then somehow I lost my temper to try the other routes...
The first half of the story (at least my path) is a masterpiece, but what comes after is just a ridiculous bullshit for those, whose area of interest is just the porn and gangbang.

I hate giving a game less than 4 stars, but it was too much disappointment in the end.

I played it so you don't have to.
★ BECAUSE I LOVE HER REVIEW
I'm writing this review after playing Version: 1.0. Here's what I liked and did not like so far.
+ THE GOOD | +/- COULD BE BETTER | - THE BAD

+ VISUALS:
The only thing I liked about this game. The renders are well made.

+/- MUSIC & SOUND:
Inconsistent.

- THE STORY:
The same old cuck story that has been done a million times before. Story makes zero sense.
- WRITING:
Terrible writing and pacing.
- MC:
Looks: Average.
Personality: Soy personified.
- CHARACTERS:
One dimensional. The female characters are the very definition of bimbos.
- CHOICES?
Don’t seem to make much difference.
- THE SEX SCENES:
Fappability – 1/5 I was limp while playing this game.

VERDICT:
Don’t waste your time with this one.

Ok, first off. I really LOVED this game in the beginning, The women were hot and corrupting Claire was really great. The animation in the beginning was Ehhh, but really picked up mid game, especially when Thennnnn, the ending sequences happened. Girls that look like they were going to be LI's suddenly disappeared, never to be seen again and I realize this story revolved around cucking the boyfriend or not, to tease us with more women only to take them away, Shame, shame. on top of it all, the endings seemed REALLY rushed as if the Dev just really wanted to move on. Overall, I have to give this game a "right down the middle" ranking as parts of the game were extremely erotic but ultimately a bummer in the end. I will still check out more of this Dev's work as I imagine he can only get better.

I just started playing and the first in the face: 4th wall and Dev foreshadowing things and trying to tell me how i should play, literally.
Its kind of weird the dev speaking to the MC telling him things that he already knows for the sake of exposition.
I laugh when i read "good writing". How can this horrendous mess have good writing? Let me describe:

Claire in the first 24 hours of the game spends like 9 hours in the gym, she leaves in the afternoon, she comes home late, and she leaves in the morning for the gym. Its like there are no other places to be.

Then she goes to the showers, something may or may not happen, it doesnt matter, your choices are taken into consideration plotwise. Then she goes to some undergournd bar while MC is cuddling with Jenni.
For some other reason, she sucks a dick in some glory hole, and while she is on the floor, another dick cums on her?

At this point the MC appears out of nowhere. They have a discussion and she tells him stuff that maybe you didnt see happen, like the dream, and the scene in the showers. This shitfest is the opposite of good writing, is below mediocre. There may be somekey choices with big impact on the path development, but others are clearly irrelevant.

Claire is old school and pure and innocent, but in less than 48 ours she deepthroating a blackhorse dick.

So, once again we have one of those Exposition-NTR games where you read some background but you never see that character behaving on the terms of that said background and she instead goes straight to deepthroat some black dude.

Renders are noisy, so if you add the rushed "plot" with poor planning you can conclude that this game was planned in one afternoon, and maybe rendered in 1 week.

And this if you choose the mixed lust route, if you go full with love, im guessing there is not even game to be played, or maybe the fiance remains a whore despite your choices.

It is a terrible game and im not even considering my feelings about the game, cause i only feel that i lost 20 minutes of my disgraceful life to play this.

EDIT:
V2.0 is actually pretty pretty good, if the original game was like that it would be 4 stars, but the content in 2.0 is just a very small portion of the 1.0 version, so its not enough to put it into the rating. But as a disclaimer, in my opinion it aims high.
