game started out good but took a huge downturn in writing (my opinion only). my understanding is they brought in a new writer that screwed the pooch big time. seems they are struggling to recover. im really hoping they do. that being said, i appreciate the info

I know some people probably see this as just another harem bang fest.
But I think the game has way more depth than that.
I knew I was playing something different after the first 30 minutes
I really liked the writing early one Especially when the characters were in Europe

I still like what we have got in season 2
And I am really looking forward to the next episode and the update to the pool party episode.

I think the writing in this game overall is leagues ahead of most other games. I guess I can see the later episodes had a slight change in style of dialogue, but for me it was still very passable.

The thing I love is that in CK, people just talk like regular everyday people, and that's such a rarity in games found on this site. Either you get the broken english translations or bombastic verbose expositions - there's not much writing in everyday vernacular/dialogue.

to be honest, i think the idea of AVNs is awesome, and the base concepts that some devs come up with have potential for a lot of entertainment. but youre right, johhny. the majority are written in a way that makes them VERY tough reads. and i agree that the writing in this game was passable, but disagree that the style change in writing and the girls personality's was slight. just my opinion. i also think the devs can turn this around and have it be as good as it started out, i wish them success either way. after all, maybe there are more people that liked the changes they made? i agree with you joshy92, im very much looking forward to the next chapter. cheers!

Yeah the writing is good
I really like scene where the mc consoles Nora in the hotel room after she has a fight with her boyfriend
That was really well written
Her whole storyline is great imo

the constant "*laughs*" and "*chuckles*" after every single character's line was insufferable. even just seeing those words now triggers me. the new writer did away with that banal shit real quick and also gave the characters way more depth and individual personalities beyond being different looking cock sheaths.

They didn't even look that different. Half the girls use the same model with a few tweaks. Even the ones that don't, have very similar proportions, very similar skin tone, and very similar faces. Except for Nora, it seems like all the girls are clones, and I'm probably just saying that about her, because I like her. ;)

they went back and fixed a lot of what was in my opinion bad writing. like the heavy vernacular switch. for example, as you couldnt suffer the giggles, i got frustrated with the constant "gotta dip" . however, as stated before, they have reigned it in, and not liking the writer change was my opinion. glad you like it though, cheers

This game deserves more credit than it gets imo
It's a great game
It's a shame the dev doesn't come here
I always like talking to the devs of the games I like on here

Anyway this game was one of the earliest games I played on here
When I started playing the games late last year
So It's always going to have a special place in my heart

Yeah, I especially loved the sequence where you are on the boat, eliminating people. Fun one and unique idea.

College Kings is my first Ren'Py game.
but unfortunately, he hasn't kept a single time commitment since 2022.
The same is true for this one.
Episode 4 will be released in two parts, part 1 and part 2, and he said he'd release part 2 by the end of the year, but is that really possible?
Rather, he said that the rebuilding of Episode 2 is not yet complete and the release could be delayed.
I don't know if I'll be able to release even Ep4 part 1, let alone Ep4 part 2, by the end of the year.
