VN Ren'Py Corporate Culture [v0.7] [sqwl]

[Wazzatheboss]

Gotta be honest, though. When has Ed really been "nice"? Didn't he resent Emma since the beginning of the game? Depending on your choices he drops incel vibes on Alice and goes full Weinstein on Lucy.
Idk I get what the concern about being nice is supposed to achieve, but it kinda came out of nowhere.

He dislikes Emma at the beginning because she is a very tough manager. But it might be deserved because early Edward was a very lazy employee.

Edward has been "nice" when he tried be a good employee to get at the top. He worked really hard and produced a quality report and Emma stoled it to help her power struggle with the CFO and even requested weekly reports from Edward. So Edward got nothing out of it except more work and vague idea of a possible promotion.

The second time, thanks to Elsa's guidance, Edward blackmails Emma. He get a promotion with a path to the top and clearly catches the eye of the big boss. He gained massively. If he played nice like the 1st time, Emma probably stole all the merits of his work again. He feels like shit though because it was manipulative and cunning.

Edward is obsessed by Alice but he doesn't act like an incel. He wants to improve and become a better version of himself to be worthy of her interest.

And he doesn't go full Weinsten on Lucy, he doesn't force her to do anything.

Really nice game, finally a game for wage slaves as well.

London corporate world is nicely portrayed. But MC should roll in cash having his own flat.

Ms Christiansen is my favourite. I thought she was half Danish, but probably Norwegian considering the Oil business.

Just restarted the game, cause I stupidly lost my saves, but I don't mind one bit, remembered why I liked that game, it's written way different than most, MC being kind of a loser at first and trying to better himself and all...

But I especially remembered why I loved Elsa.

Damn.

(didn't play the last update yet, don't know if things will change)

 

[Hwk47]

why I loved Elsa.

"Gravity thou art a heartless bitch"?

So guys, what are the latest news about development?

New banner! Yoo Hooo !!!!!!!

Elsa grabbed us all by the %&%&&@#@ ...

 

[Sasanid]

"Gravity thou art a heartless bitch"?

Yeah, love her sarcasm, or just whenever she has her annoyed look when Edward says something stupid.

So guys, what are the latest news about development?

Nothing new about the development that I had seen. I keep subscribing to the Patreon for just one month every now and then. I can't afford many recurrent payments at once. My current subscription is about to expire.

Yeah I support him too, this year he tried to be more talkative, from what I gather it's pretty much just a sideline for him, but I think he at least tried to be a bit more engaged. Someone to do some promotion would probably help him, though.

Hey, guys.
I've been under the weather for the past week or so. One day feeling fine, the next sick again, some strange flu, idk.
I have made some work while feeling better: a few environments are ready to render, some text work, but I can't keep up with the production plan right now. So no payments this month.
I hope I'll get better and be able to get back to work in a couple of days.
I'll let you know.
See you.

Man .. this dev is delusional big time ... really out there in the stratosphere of completely remote from this game:
Thank you for providing the updated ”views” of the dev, but this game is disprooving all of the assertions the dev makes about his own characters, their motivations and the lengths they would go to get what they need, especially the girls.

Anne ... this wonderful absolute goddess of a woman,
one phenomenal, real adult, full fledged woman in all senses of the word,
she gets it.

So in way fewer words... you don't like it ?

What? No .. not while even the dev is dissing and blue balling MC into oblivion.

Elsa is delicious. I want her to be Ed's queen.

It will be more like Ed becoming the queen

It's no pay November. You should be safe to stay until mid-December or so.

Would it be that bad considering the story takes place on some particular islands?

Lack of eroticism.
IMO, eroticism belongs between characters who share more than friendship. Eroticism between friends or colleagues in ordinary daily situations feels out of place and devalues it for further scenes. And an extensive amount of suggestive camera angles in out-of-place circumstances feels like blue balling. This is why there aren't a lot of ME2-style shots. I'm open to your opinion on that, would you like more?

The fuck? Eroticism is not always about intimacy, eroticism can be anywhere anytime. Like a hot cashier at the supermarket, she was born that hot and uniforms fit her womanly forms. The game takes place in a grey enviroment so I can understand the lack of eroticism to some extent but don't disregard it altogether.

 

[sqwl]

It feels somewhat rude to just ask it bluntly, but is there going to be an Emma path? I might be in the minority but that's all I want tbh.

Yes, she will have major presence in the story including different paths.

 

[Slick Bean]

sqwl, take notes, buddy!
This is how you build a team of strong bonded work buddies!

Elsa should very well invite MC, Alice and Emm to a scorchingly throbbing team building stress relieving session!

Making a major impact deep inside the hearts and minds of players everywhere around the globe.
