Ren'Py Come Home [v8.18.5 Premium] [R.J. Rhodes]

[KrystofDayne]

KrystofDayne, I've just read your review and thought you might be interested in two things.

The first is about Adrian. You wrote "And then, whether you choose to still be with her or not, the MC remains respectful and empathetic either way which is just awesome." In her latest roadmap for the next chapter RJ wrote:
Adrian Friend Path - I've been wanting to do this for a while, but just haven't really gotten the chance. You'll be able to decide to just be friends with Adrian - you can still hang out with her and experience some of her story, without the romance. I want to do this with Bai at some point as well.
I think this will add even more to her and MC's character.

The second is that I'm not sure, but I think you missed an [ISPOILER] or an [/ISPOILER] somewhere in the review, it's all somehow hidden under several layers of obfuscation.

Nice, yeah, since Bai and Adrian are among my favourites among the romantic options (at least in the top 5 probably with some combination of Nora, Izzy, Brandi, Jez and Tammy), to a large degree simply because there just aren't a ton of games out there with well-written trans characters or with a bisexual (male) MC, I'm not personally interested in a friend path for these characters, but it's a cool idea to have it in there.
A lot of other games do this thing that I'm not a huge fan of, and almost feels like indulging some players' possible trans/homophobia, where they tell the player sometimes before you even meet the trans/gay character "beware, this character is trans/gay, do you want to continue on with this path?" and if you don't, you just never see the character again; like, why not still have them around even if you don't want to romance them? Not being sexually interested doesn't mean you have to cut these people completely out of your life. Always feels sort of icky to me. So yeah, a friend path could be cool.

The inline spoiler thing, I fixed it, thanks, apparently I've just become so used to the backslash from various programming languages, I instinctively used that one instead of the required forward slash

Hi there. I just wanted to say thank you for the great review. It made me feel good on this stressful morning. I love all my characters so it's so nice to see somebody else who loves them too and recognizes what I'm trying to do.

You wrote off Mrs. Mills as "that bitch femdom character", but you may give her another try in a couple updates. Just like the others, she has more hidden underneath that I think is going to be worth digging for.

As far as the negatives in the review - vanilla sex, and subpar visuals - the sex is going to get less vanilla for sure. Just trying to keep it somewhat realistic in the way things build up. The subpar visuals I hope that people will recognize are getting better. I'm still not the best at creating beautiful renders, but I feel like I've improved significantly over the last couple of updates. Unfortunately, since it's such a large game, there's still some renders in it that are over a year old, and I wasn't as adept at Daz back then.

Anyways. I took fifteen minutes or so and read this whole review. It made me feel really good. Thank you for caring enough to write it. Love ya.

Yeah, maybe I wrote her off a bit too much but I tried for a long time to pursue her path and since her sex scenes have so far stayed very consistently in the femdom direction, she just isn't for me. But I'm sure you're right, that there's more to her, I just know that when I can't enjoy the sex scenes, then I probably can't enjoy the character too much as a whole.

Yeah like I said, I expected that things would become more spicy in the future but I just feel like I had a lot of disappointed moments so far but I know that I'm probably above-average kinky and can maybe expect a bit too much in a mostly realistic game like this where weird, kinky fantasy stuff wouldn't really fit in.
And the visuals, yeah like I said, never really bothered me much, I do think they're pretty good and I'm sort of done with games that have great visuals—probably mainly because the dev has one beast of a computer behind them—but that have so far stayed underwhelming with storytelling, so I much prefer games like yours

Anyways. I took fifteen minutes or so and read this whole review. It made me feel really good. Thank you for caring enough to write it. Love ya.

You're welcome, thanks for indulging me

The version uploaded here on the 15th was leaked from my Patreon. This is the official release. I don't know what is in the pirated version. It may be exactly the same.

The leaked update did not have the Mac and Android versions also.

Happy Holidays you filthy pirates. Which present are you going to unwrap first?

Speaking as a filthy pirate, that's some fine booty! Arrr!

 

[Virulenz]

Hmm...lots of tags...some highly unwanted...so i prefer to ask before i run into them: Are dicks avoidable? Except for the mc of course

As the FAQ says, everything is avoidable. There are 20 optional LIs, each with a switch to turn their route on/off at any time. Technically you can play the main story only without having to have any sex during the game, although I don't recommend that.
You can even pursue Izzy without having to participating in a gangbang. A very hot and sexy gangbang. At certain points the dev gives you the option to opt-out of most somewhat controversial things.

 

[Virulenz]

Thats good, I'll try it.
Now you raised a second question yourself...okay, i dont need to take part in that, but will it still happen without me? Just asking because i dont even WANT to pursue cheap sluts with such *censored to avoid shaming* kinks

Can't I open them all at the same time?

You probably want to avoid Izzy. She makes it clear from the beginning that she fucks who she wants and doesn't belong to anyone. In my head canon she is an MC of her own AVN and allows our MC to be part of her harem.
The women in Come Home are not the usual collectibles who just exist for the MC. They have a life, opinions, two are married. For the sake of a harem ending they are all okay with MC dating other people though. And you will not getting cheated on, as I said, you can turn off any character's route at any time (and turn it back on later if you are curious).
Hope you'll like it.

 

[Virulenz]

Big thx for the hints, i'll avoid her. Its not some perverted jealousy based on demanding control over someones sexlife, like in reality i dont care about it, but as rl lesbian i really dont like playing with cumdumps...if they have a female harem on their own i would only pout a bit if i am not allowed to play with them too or dont get invited for orgies, but a single guy is enough for my stomach to dont like to play with them anymore ^^

Haha, well, the biggest slut in the game is still MC.
But the LIs are pretty diverse, and this includes another dick to avoid for you: Bai, the Barista, the male bisexual option.
Also there is a trans woman pre bottom surgery. You cannot avoid her completely, because she has a part to play in the main story, but you don't need to pursue her romantically. She is very well written though, and next update she will get an additional non-sexual friends route. I haven't told you her name yet, because I hope that you will fall in love with her and when she finally comes out to MC you won't even mind her "clitty", as she calls it. But if you absolutely need and must avoid her, it's Adrian.
