VN Ren'Py Completed City of Broken Dreamers [v1.15.0 Ch. 15] [PhillyGames]

[ename144]

I think that the lack of augments walking the streets can also be explained by the game's lore itself. First Augment program was a US military program for a great war against Japan that ended in 2030/1/1, 12 years before the game's setting. By then Japan had created an actual cyborg - RedMoon - but the country just doesn't exist anymore, same for its corps, so all that work is almost entirely lost (maybe). We can also infere the peace agreements and international organizations could have imposed a ban on that kind of biotechnological research after the war (officially at least) so second and third gen augments like Victoria are not really that common outside megacorps headquarters. We could argue that for that first augment program to work some basic research was still needed and some not-so-advanced implants could have been broadly used for regular people (so we should see at least some 'bionic' people that were augmented between today and 2030), but with SDG spreading and all it's also possible that the greatest advances on that field were kept in secret until the start of the war.

Also, DAZ models availability

It certainly fits the world history not to have people chromed to the gills, but it would be nice to see a few blatant cybernetic components from time to time. The Red Moon obviously takes it to another level, but replacement limbs seem like they'd be well within the capabilities of a world that can give us Katie's medical scanners and mass produce those police bots. It's fine not to have them, but it does feel like a missed opportunity (even if it does come down to DAZ assets).

In other news, I went ahead and updated my tier list.

Maybe we could start seeing some now in the second part of the story here and there. One can hope now that some of those assets are being made thanks to Cyberpunk 2077 release.

As for the game, this week rendering took a back seat to writing, coding and testing. I wanted to focus on that since I was getting behind in that department. This next week I will continue focus there for the first few days till I feel things are in proper shape. It is looking sweet seeing a massive chunk fully in game and working.

And now my brain is fried so I will leave it there lol.

As always guys, stay awesome!

Is it just my impression or are Sasha's breasts a little bigger on that render preview than I remember?

Oh no, DPC's number-free update disease is spreading!

Hopefully this indicates we're getting close to the finish line, but there's not much point in speculating about the schedule until we get new info. The only other thing to mull over is the preview... of Sasha. Fine, beggars can't be choosers.

She has the same outfit as in the Dev Diary #94 preview, so presumably this is the same scene. The staircase doesn't seem to fit with the safehouse she was last seen in, though; I'm not sure how Sasha got wherever it is, but it seems like we're going to need some story time to explain how this fits in with the rest of the chapter. I sincerely hope this means Sasha is finally going to contribute something to story. It feels like the game has been bending over backwards to keep her (admittedly pretty) face on screen despite having almost nothing interesting to do with her.

... fucking Bolters!

One can hope

What you mean with "Sasha going to contribute something to story"? Are you sure that you are paying attention to the plot of the game? Sasha is already contributing with the story. On her role, she is a representative person of the "low life" people on the game, who the government forget about and who the corps don't give a shit about.

The fact, even admitted by Philly himself, is that she was going to be just a one-off character but her looks granted her a more important role... which wasn't entirely planned in advance. And frankly, it's showing.

Edit.- Until now, her only crucial moment was her taking Gloria to the Pit, something that could have been done by any other Bolter, and the rest is just a bunch of lewdy pics and questionable choices from our ghosts to protect her.

We love games and porn RPGs, don't we? Why is it STUPID_KINTSO like ???
Well, women, nothing like that, but this is not a game! And the movie!
That would be porn / rpg with beautiful women, that's another matter!

Hell it would even make more sense for Abby to help bring Gloria to the pit to heal considering her connections to the place and the people inside.
Frankly her presence in the story so far is my major grip with the game. Maybe it will change in the future but right now it is annoying to see her being shoehorned into the narrative for no other reason than being eye candy.

Did you forget that she is fighting to help her brother... also, to help her Bolter people? Well, at least for me, this is a noble cause and a very important role. But, of course, I cannot deny that the spotlights are all toward to Katie, Ellen, Victoria, Chandra and Gloria, because they are the main girls of the game. That is it!

I've unlocked the Krista scene, but can't select it in the scene gallery.

I have the same issue here. Watched the scene, unlocked it, but cannot access it in the replay...

Must be a bug, I have the same issue. It's not the first time there's a problem with the gallery.

Is it just my game or someone else facing "the replay problem" that doesn't work on the girl scene in the pit?

Late to the party, but this is due to a bug in the Scene Gallery code:

Hopefully Philly is already across this by now, but in the meantime the attached modded screens.rpy fixes it.

That code really work for me. I got it now what was wrong with the script label. Thank you!

That's kind of a pointless background story to justify her presence in that building with the sculptor, it almost looks like an afterthought to give her character some 'deep' to be explored in further appearances or maybe even a reason for some future trouble (that messsage we can send to her brother seems an utterly bad idea when we are allegedly trying to stay low in Kleo's safe house). A noble cause? Sure, but honestly, I find it quite difficult to consider this a very important role in game's story. You seem to like her and that's OK, but we can safely take her out of the game and it wouldn't make any difference - as long as we put some other random bolter to kidnap Gloria

Alright, I respect your opinion, but I do not agree with you in many things. However, this is not really something to put in discussion, because all we have is just a point of view, that make us see the plot in different ways.
Yes, I agree with you that Sasha is just a supporting character on the game and that she has low level meaning to the plot, because she is not a main character and all the spotlights are toward the main girls and the MC.
Yes, I do like Sasha and I do have simpathy for her background story, because in my real life, in someway, I live in similar way with that.
