Others - Completed - Chastity Quest: Chasing the Next Release [Final] [Novus]

final

graphics are dated.

unfappable.

many bugs and annoying things. runs slow for some reason...

some annoying things: they remade the renpy UI, so if you want to change the skip messages it's a bit different but mostly the same. for some reason videos last forever, you cannot go forward with them if you press enter/leftclick. there is an option in messages to skip videos (by holding control) maybe it works, but then again, if you press right click during the video (to change the settings of "skip video", which you normally wouldn't want to do since that's the sex scene) then it freezes. it basically let's you into the menu after the long ustoppable video is finished.

it's annoying as fk. furthermore the whole game is a bit blurry so you get tired even reading it.

scenes are very basic, not many reactions by npc/ppl to some absurd scenes. lots of scenes don't make sense. it was a relatively fast uninstall because the game is just absolutely garbage. this is not a "complete" game. this is maybe close to a first release level of polish. maybe there is a lot of content, i dont know because i uninstalled it because it's a bad game and these problems are visible even by playing it for 5minutes. even in AAA games at least the beginning is fully fleshed out, here even that very beginning is extremely low effort.

It's disappointing that this is flagged complete. The game has potential, and is clearly not done. Interactions with some characters give placeholder development notes.

As far as the content and gameplay goes, I really like what's here. The visual elements are very well done: animations are (mostly) smooth. While I'd like more graphic angles and slightly closer framing for the H-scenes, there's enough already there to make the H-scenes rousing. Also, the writing is good, conveying backstory and giving the characters a bit of depth. The situations are silly and contrived, but no more than other porn games and visual novels. I found little difficulty with my suspension of disbelief.

It was jarring that scene transitions aren't handled well. Music simply cuts off or on when transitioning to a new scene or location, or even when checking your character stats. Not randomly, mind you. It's not a bug. It's how it was coded. The scenes can be slow to load, taking at least a few seconds regularly, probably due to the size of the assets being loaded.

It's distracting that when you visit a location or a character you've already interacted with, you are commonly met with a few clicks worth of intro exposition that you've read every time the location/character is loaded.

What is frustrating is that occasionally the game will fail to load a scene and is simply stuck. When that happens I have to crash it, check running tasks and manually kill one or more instances of nw.js that are each hogging 8% of my CPU cycles.

What is rage-inducing is that saving produces corrupted saves two out of three times... with no indication that the save failed. When you go to load your game, you get the bad news. As far as I can tell, some places you can save, like in the middle of a scene, will fail 100% of the time. Any valid save point (deduced through trial and error) will be corrupt at minimum 50% of the time. Also, there's no rollback, so if you don't like an outcome to a choice you made, you're using the load feature, with pretty dismal results.

I'm no game developer, but I don't see why this game isn't in Renpy. It's more of a VN than a game. And I've seen Renpy handle amazing visuals better than NW did for this game. I'd love to see this game moved to Renpy (if that engine can handle the visual assets), finished, and polished. It's a really great start, but I suspect most of the problems I've listed stem from node webkit's inability to handle the demands of this project.

Version: Final

This game is pretty much feel like a choose your own adventure visual novel with simple gameplay mechanics and loops. The simplicity doesnt make this a bad game, just a more casual laid back one.
Although i will complain about the fact that its a bit glitchy, some save files just crash the game when you try to load, but then again, i did use cheats and the dev warned me that it could cause instability.
Talking about instability, this game in terms of its gameplay, stability and mechanics feels really half baked, while the sex scenes, story and progression feels like they are completed, its a bit jarring in all honesty.

Yet despite its feeling of beta-version, i still had fun in this game, would recommend it either way.

Contrary to the dishonest review by ohsnapdragon just below this one, this game is not Skyrim. It is no more "literally Skyrim" than Casey's Fall is just "literally Daz." This is not only not Skyrim, it isn't even the same kind of game Skyrim is. This is a visual novel that uses the Skyrim engine to generate images, like others use Daz or another graphics generator. There is, in fact, a series of pages attributing the art and programs to their various authors, so the vicious lie that "they haven't bothered to credit the authors of Sexlab, Devious Devices, or any of the other mods they're running" is easily disproven. Nor does anyone have to pay to play the game, so the vicious lie that "they are literally profiting off of people's hard work" is likewise easily disproven.

The game has its flaws; there are times when it is hard to figure out what to do next (especially when it is hard to figure out when to go to the next major plot nexus), and there is some repetitive play. But the game is fun, doesn't take itself too seriously, and rewards good decision-making without making bad decision-making a game-ruining experience.

If the size of the download doesn't deter you, then this is definitely a game you want to play, if you are at all interested in the subject.

I loved this game, start to finish. The setting and story are sexy, the writing is good, and there's just enough animation to be engaging and tantalizing. The unique scenes have enough unpredictability to be surprising, and the overall tone is playful and fun (which is just as it should be, for my tastes).

This game also wastes none of your time: It also has no boring, bullshit grinds to go through, no pointless sidequests that add no content, and it's easy to skip over stuff you've seen before. I also really enjoyed the ending, and while I'm sad there isn't more, I'm glad it ended before it got repetitive or stale.

The game is story-based, rather than action or turn-based combat. You won't be doing much managing of resources, or fighting battles. You'll be trying new things, enjoying a variety of outcomes, and then moving on to the next area when you're bored.

I whole-heartedly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys good writing, and the Bondage theme. I'm eagerly looking forward to the next project from the creator.

review based on 9 build
PRO:
- some story presents
- not totaly bad ui
- no bugs found during pt
CONS:
- dev, whole game based on skyrim, its ok, but make it damn pretty!!11 as example- some ur sshots contain vasnila hairstyles (concrete made), just download and use damn wigs to avoid that horror (if u have no idea how to equip wig to NPC- select in console npc, type "openactorcontainer 1" and give them damn wigs)
- stats ui looks like ***. that frame can be more compact and less ugly... or it can be located in main screen.
- that damn skyrim have tons pretty clothing, but dev using some ugly vanila... also for skyrim exist many pretty poses, not vanila unisex only...

if u need cheat code for that 9 build- "CockMe" (ofc there no direct input- u must every time input that using mouse)

This game is very good, I think. It has good visuals and good story, there's a lot to do even though a lot more content has the potential to be added. There's a large amount of scenes, and the different locations are really nice on the eye. Skyrim is one of my favorite games, and I think this is a pretty inventive way to use that game to create a new one.
One issue is that the download size could be a bit smaller, it took me quite a while to download this
Overall, I like this game. It is one to look out for in the future

Really great game so far, although at time of writing this still far from release I imagine. The game has a lot of creative/hot scenes centred around bondage/predicaments. I think the person who's making this has done a good job so far coming up with interesting ideas and exploring the concept. If you like the idea of an adventurer locked in a chastity belt going on adventures that always end in some kind of sex (whether she gets to cum or not), then this game is for you. I would support this guy on Patreon if I could afford to, so there's my recommendation. I think it's worth money.
