VN Ren'Py Completed Depth's Revival [Extended Harem finale] [Seacth]

[Juerhullycin]

I don't understand why is everyone bitching about the ending. Looking closely this is the same ending that other 999 harem games have - nobody died, everyone live happily ever after. It just had a little unexpected event near the end and that's all. And that actually makes this game better, not worse.

AlwaysFans is a NTR avoidable game and it got a better Harem ending than a dedicated Harem game that's just straight up pathetic.

Its not Haven had the same shit at the end of its game and the dev got totally trashed, deservedly so. Nobody plays those games to get his expectations subverted. That fucking trend is tanking billion dollar IPs. Why do people keep thinking that it works?

Yes, I only play games because I want to shoot myself in the head at the end, miss things, and have possible LIs go running off to cuck me in a hypothetical sequel.

He didn't shoot himself in the head, he was trapped and attacked unexpectedly. And you did badly as a harem master if your LIs will just run away in case of troubles.

Seriously man, you need to see some doctor if you start distorting facts about the game to project your inner thoughts about shooting yourself. But I won't shame you about your cucking fetish - well, to each their own.

Well I completed the game today and I already read through the last comments on here so I'm not gonna say to obvious thing regarding the ending.....


But I really actually enjoyed the game overall sure the ending was not what I expect but before that it was really great. Tho I wish you made Imogen and Cindy and Martha join the harem in a unique way like they are side characters It would be much better if you shown in the end they also live with MC after the incident and... Some fast forward on showing the MC growing old while seen his children grown and family thrive... As for some plot holes here and there could been better but overall not bad for first project.



I strongly suggest make the next project standalone which won't connect to this one. Due to ending and all I think it's best to make it as a different characters different story but polished version DR and yes maybe different type of story with harem or can go solo girl .......

Lastly I wish you best of luck in your next project I look forward for a good progression take notes on this one and make the next one even better good luck.

I'm going to extend the ending a little more to show off all girl's life after the ending. The next project is a standalone game with a brand-new cast, story and harem. The old cast is only going to be a minor part of it like a cameo of some sort.

The ending literally sunk the whole game. And rather than fix it, the dev literally be like;

Well I'm gonna have ptsd from now on when I play harem game. Thanks, I hate it.

 

[Tricooo]

Geez, thankfully I read the comments before getting invested in the game. Such a shame.

Bruh. The dude's dick looks like a botched product from a sex toy factory, like a reject that gets thrown away. Why is the shaft so detailed, but the head looks like it has 5 pixels? It makes me laugh so damn hard every single time it's on the screen!

Some time has passed for me to think about the ending. I read and understand where dev's idea of a provoking ending coming from. Many games do play it safe, not having an ending that come out of left field. It does make the game more memorable in a sense when it happens. But IMO, as many things in life, you got to earn it, or build it up. What I mean by that is there has to be strong foreshadowing, or consistent themes of storytelling that lead to this outcome. Subversion for the sake of it is just not good story telling. I think the dev here is still talented though and understood what's so important to a satisfying harem game, having tons of varied group sex with different pairing and such. Just gotta think about consistency more. If the game has been a Mario Kart all along, no need to switch gear and go for a Silent Hill at the end.

I'm no writer so this is just my thoughts as a horny bastard.

I know I fucked up the foreshadowing part, I could've done it better, and I will be better. This game was always a test project and even in the end it taught me a lot of good lessons.

I don't think the ending is quite as bad as some others do, but it is definitely bad. The reality is that the true only consequence to the ending is "killing" Serena, but what is the purpose of this? It's obviously not built up at all, but beyond that there isn't even a thematic purpose to Serena "dying". What role does this event serve in the story? In what way does the game benefit from having this happen? It's literally just pointless shock value and a waste of a character. The only way it would make sense is if Serena was actually MC and Lera's daughter and she disappeared because she was born. But that would then bring in other problems like the fact that MC and Serena fucked which makes it weird if she isn't a LI for the MC.

It's been a year since I last played so it's hard for me to say what actually changed with the rework, but the only things I noticed was the removal of drinking whilst pregnant (a good change) and the fact that Melinda and Lera no longer acknowledge the fact that they're supposed to be virgins (a bad change).

it absolutely did in the worst way possible.

one thing i find funny about all this is the fact that even though this had a terrible ending which everyone absolutely hated and feels like the dev saying i don't give a fuck about this game/project anymore time to move on to the next is the fact there will still be some people who will play the devs next game expecting better. i usually play games off here expecting the worst from every dev if they prove me wrong that's a bonus if not well at least i expected it

i will give it maybe a try, but only after the game is done and my canary came back alive out of the mine shaft.
to be honest i have little to no hope for my canary

I've been sucked into this discussion, I ain't played it and hearing stuff about the ending is enough to throw off me and potential players who could be potential pledgers. I do think the dev should consider adding a happy ending, I don't know what to do... I would like someone to give a decent case for whether folks like me should bother or not.

well i really really liked the game, the ending killed it. Buried it, filled the grave with concrete and build a parking lot on top of it. Then filled that parking lot with trash trucks that are filled with used diapers and set it all on fire.

But that's only my personal opinion. The beginning is probably one of my favourites on this side so maybe you will like it. Sad how it went down in the end tho.

Damn its that bad?

Its not avoidable?!

Its not avoidable?!

1) for me it is, to me the game is pretty much dead and buried and i never want to play it again

2) no, not if you play till the end, if you stop before it happens ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ you can theoretical avoid it
