RPGM Claire's Quest [v0.29.1] [Dystopian Project]

[Pa3uk]

I cant help much with most of those but i will try to answer the ones i think i know.....

Thank you very much for the clarification, as out of all the questions I asked, what actually concerned me were:

1. Whether it would be possible to save the girl later by choosing the friend's route or not, which leads to the conclusion that it’s better to go and help the friend with the lock, and the girl can be saved afterward.
2. Whether it’s possible to add files to the Steam version to make it work. It turns out that yes, it is possible.
3. The best place to start the game.

It seems that I have received positive answers to my questions. However, regarding the starting location (a long time ago), I remember that even before buying the game, I started in some small village where the heroine was a nanny for a boy and could corrupt him (as well as his mother), and then later arrive in the "city" by ship. I wonder if that part still exists. As I mentioned, I played it a very long time ago, just like you, a couple of years back. It’s a shame that the product is taking so long to develop; I hope it doesn’t get abandoned.

Kind of wish the devs would focus on something other than futa for a while i know its a popular kink but its probably my least favourite part of the game

Does the Steam version have anything different from the .27.3 version most recently released? I read something about the Steam version having its own questline about the show girls, but isn't that eventually supposed to come from buying the house in the slums? You can do that in the .27.3 version, so I wasn't sure where the difference was or if this is actually the "collectors" version.

I say the main focus of the game is on bestiality , this is by far the most extensive content we have now - The Ranch (that keeps getting updated) , The Rangers quest ( all of it related to bestiality) , and all the different monter encounters that again revolve around bestiality , as well as some of the jobs like dog walker , bull milker and so on ... so futa is definetly not the main part of the game since it has only one quest line devolted to it and its not even finished yet. In the main quest and outside of the Sister's quest line , futa is totaly absent. Same goes for incest ( only pressent in 2 quests ) , vannila ( thats probably the rarest kink ) , lesbian and so on. As i said again i think the dev is overdoing it with the Ranch "quest line" if you can even call it that since it has no relation to the rest of the plot or game world. But it seems some of the most paying folowers want this kind of stuff , so that is what we are getting.
Most of all im hoping the main quest will finaly be pushed forward. But at this point i dont see it happening.

Yes, this path still exists. It is the North option in the prologue, where you depart to the Isles via Hookton village.
Though small correction - Claire works as a housekeeper, not the nanny

 

[Balddog]

The main line of the game will not be completed for a long time yet.

So what you are saying is that owning a breeding ranch is NOT the main story? ...Boy, what's the point of playing the game then?


On a serious note, will we ever get more content with Marie and Claire's mother?

From the latest information about the progress of the game:

Announcement regarding the progression for Claire's Quest! After much fiddling about, rewriting, and checking event paths, we've decided to delay the release in favour of making a bigger release with two of the next subsequent Sisters/Temple quests at once, in order to avoid bricking/gamebreaking progression for players!

Tentatively, we should work in the new content and have it tested and make sure it has no major issues sometime in March!

I would like to add that you need to be patient. It was supposed to come out in mid-February. Now it's March. After so many years, it's probably not a surprise. The important thing is that something new appears.

I'll be honest, I don't know which game creator is worse, the one for Claire's quest or Legend of queen opala...sweGabe has been milking their patrons for years with little to show for it. People want the game to finish and they keep spending time and money on more art/voice actors no one asked for.

 

[Abnur_tharn]

every single time the creator sets a date for an update, nothing happens. instead it gets delayed for a month or two. EVERY SINGLE TIME.

and later it arrives with a WHOPPING 3 new scenes

Thats what im saying , ok the updates are slow , but don't tease people. Announce the update when it's actually ready ! Every single time the same thing. Now for the current update they wont even give us a date , after it got delayed.

Is that the only thing that bothers you? The game was released to version 0.27 after 9 years. At this rate, it will be fully released only after 50+ years, hello, I will not be very interested in Claire's adventures when I am lying in the grave from old age. With all due respect to the author.

 

[Ataman87]

I'm aware the game will probably never be completed unless the devs and artists pass it to their children, am saying just when they announce an update date they should keep it or not announce at all. Still even if the game is never finished at least they keep adding stuff and it has a lot of content more than many other games on the site.

I don't even get why it's taking so long. if it's the art, hire more artists. they make thousands of dollars every month and can't even offer the fraction of content that other devs release

and before anyone says I'm complaining on a "free site", I bought the game on steam

It's the combination of limited engine not suited for something of that scale + few devs + only 1 (or 2?) artist(s) to do everything + limited view of where to go next since the game was only planned to end before the mc left the continent + rl issues and milking strat, which is working well. No need to be afraid of repercussions too since the alienated community defends with sweat and blood against whoever tries to argue back.

Dude stop blaming the engine ! Have you played Roundscape Adorevia or Warlock and Boobs , Treasure of Nadia , Peasanst's Quest , Town of Passion , Zombie's retareat ? Those game are huge (Especially Roundscape and its all so finished in less time than this , whit complex branching stories , rpg mechanics and so on...) . I think the problem is in the people who use the engine , not the engline itself. The engine is fine , many good games use it , and not only porn games. Im not saying it easy to work with it , but many other people had made and finished much more complex games than this. In fact some of my favorite games use this engline.

 

[Curelt]

Is that save on the page 1 up to date? It says 0.17, but i see the version is 0.27
But from the other hand all areas are filled with scenes so i doubt i am missing something. Or?

Take a look at Fear & Hunger from Orange for example,game was made in RPGMAKER and it's a masterpiece imo, and it's not even a porn game.

It's a female protag 2d game. The audience is fundamentally limited compared to the more popular projects on this site. Adding more artists wouldn't necessarily bring in more money. They might very well be close to the proverbial "cap" for such a project already. Another artist could just end up splitting that same 10k a month more ways. Sounds like a lot, but factor in patreon cut and taxes, then spread across a small team and suddenly it's not that much to live on.

They'd probably say something about not wanting to mix up the art styles more, but monthly payment models also just have a perverse incentive to not rock the boat so long as it's working. Leisurely putting out updates just fast enough to keep the patrons from forgetting to unsubscribe probably suits them just fine.

Every payment model has its foibles. Paying only for finished product incentivizes rushed out spam with deceptive marketing. Paying monthly incentivizes incentivies drawn out dreck with unrealistic overpromises. Pick your poison.
