hi , How NTR work ? some games we have to have the relationship with -15 -20 with the other girls and other its just event like that .

From the in-game explanation at the start of chapter 2: As soon as you are in the city hub, you can switch to play the girl party members and have them go solo (without the MC), which can lead to NTR events. If you keep the MC in the party, NTR will not happen regardless of relationship status. Disclaimer: I just started chapter 2 & am currently stuck with a quest, so this wasn't tested yet practically...

Thanks for the explanation. I'd still like to know how quick they are to sleep with others, especially relative to vanilla progression, or if there's some actual build up but this sounds more interesting than I thought so I'll give it a try.

Well, i'm pretty sure its not a NTR game, but rather a game with (very optional and easily avoidabl) NTR if this makes sense. The examples i found so far:

Thief girl: Can get an event where she is strip searched and fingered by a guard (player choice, can easily be avoided, dialogue choice is marked red)

Herbalist girl: Can get an event where she is invited to a tea after helping someone. The tea is spiked (player can simply refuse it), and if she drinks it, he will take her against her will -> causing her to get pregnant with his baby & has to retire from adventuring. Can also choose to forgive him and become his wife, but its kinda an early end (with the option to go back in time after the event is done)

Ranger girl (Step-Sis): Can get a job at the tavern, with an old patron paying extra for flashing/groping/blowjob - but she (aka player choice) can put a stop this at any time (the extra tip is so low compared to adventuring income you have to really want to see the scene)

Imo its more like you have female side-protagonists with their own misadventures than what you would normally call neotare, since you are in full control. Didn't feel like "my girls are cheating on me", but more like jumping into of those female protagonist games where the player deliberately chooses to take bad decisions to see where it will take her.

What form is of ntr? Mom ntr,Gf ntr,friend ntr,sister ntr?

In the freeroam mode you can choose play the girls in your party and find (optional) events for them only. Basically, you temporarily turn the girl into the main character and can choose to get her in problematic situations. So far i found: thief getting strip-searched and fingered by the guards, step-sister taking a waitress side-job and getting groped etc, and healer helping a man and getting spiked tea (this one escalated most with full on rape and pregnancy).

In the current game, the girls are potential love interests but none of them are the MCs girlfriend (yet). So currently sister and friend ntr, later potentially gf ntr. But none of them cheat, and everything that happens is direct player choice (not by taking the wrong path, but actively taking the decision).

This just got much more interesting.
I thought nobody even remembers what Gothic is anymore, what a pleasant surprise.

I played all 4 Gothic games and then ArcaniA games. I quite liked them.

So NTR is easily avoidable. That being the case, it seems perfect to me and I guess I'll try to see how the game is.

I will probably try this one in a couple of months when more content will be added

 

[Furmilk]

Currently there is one case of pregnancy in the game, and that is an ending type deal for that character.

Are you implying there might be a mechanic later? Or that there'll be more ending based ones?

hello I can't do the rest of the quest for the 3 tasks I did the first one with the rats but at the blacksmith nothing happens except by buying the sword what should I do I go around in circles

The blacksmith told me to get a box from storage (house in E part of village iirc), and doing so progressed the quest. You get the dialogue with this info only once but if you didn't get it at all something might have bugged out.

Literally every single time , there are tons of Harem/ Non NTR games but they come in every ntr threard and bitch about the game , the dev said he wants to make the game that he wants to make why even come and cry about it lol , good luck Dev

According to the tags it's a harem and NTR game, so it's normal that people who like one or the other come here. If you don't want people who like the harem to come, you can always complain to the Dev and ask him to remove that part of the game. EDIT: Melolibya, I understand that it annoys you that people complain about the NTR, and I think I misunderstood your reference to the harem as a complaint that followers of that genre came to the thread. Sorry for the inconveniences.

Personally I don't like the NTR, but being easily avoidable I don't see what problem its existence can cause me. And having the romance and harem tags, I'm sure I'll at least try to see if I can like it.

EDIT:

Gudil, if you don't like that the NTR is avoidable and that the game is harem, it's not my problem. You can give all the facepalms you want, that will not change this fact.

 

[Sommion]

there is a sex scene in the game already? Im on freemode, but i cant pass of the second date with the girls

 

[hitmanbhi]

No. That's NOT the correct definition. You're talking about the porn term "Fluff" it's a verb. This Fluff is a noun. It means creating content that is light and nice. I don't know how it meshes with the three letter tag, but the Dev's explanation is above. I guess. Take it or leave it, I choose to leave it.

How come it is a noun and not adjective when it describes the term 'romance'?

Also, bye bye.

 

[Fluffy Neko]

This game actually has NTR done the right way, aka completely avoidable. It's a big + when compared to games that just hide the scene from the player's eyes, so it still happens in the background. Kudos to dev for being considerate and actually planning things before creating his game.

 

[VNPlayerCalisto]

I hate NTR being forced on me, and prefer a game be one or the other. Yes one or the other as NTRers have every right to enjoy their kink. However this might be the first time I want more avoidable NTR added to the game as it makes me happy to hear how I'm protecting the LI and at the same time makes many in the NTR camp happy. A Win-Win in my book. Yes there will be some on both side who are extreme and will hate this but PLEASE stick to your vision.

Personally I would love a bit of dialouge - option along the line of "Hey don't be going off alone, I heard some guard is molesting thieves he catches" for the non NTR route, but I doubt many would support that . Maybe as a third option "Foil NTR" "NTR on" "No NTR". But I understand thats extra work.

Can any one give an estimate on how many minutes the game runs this early as I may wait til v0.2.0 to try.

BEST OF LUCK DEV and thanks for being upfront, open and honest.

interesting game keep it up!

First impressions:
(Im cant criticise, I just want to make the game better)
- to the download links, need + RPGVXAce_RTP download link, and write some information " U cant run the game without RPGVXA" - or something.
- In the second mission, (3 task) need in a questlog describe what is a 3 task...if im played some time later maybe forgotten, and cant find reminder.
- Little weird, in a battle scene saw only enemy, and a hero not.
- in a battle scene cant saw enemy HP. This is must important, becouse i choose run, or fight more.
- i dont know, but usefully things a NPC-s have visible name. im get out a house find somebody, and have 20 NPC-s in a screen...not simple find somebody.
- in a 3 task the smithy ask some boxes from the warehouse. But where is a warehouse? This time i cant find.

This is a first minits impressions, i hope it will be useful.
Maybe i continue my suggestions.

Really we are forced to play as a female protag to get the NTR?, that just killed all interest I had.

 

[H-game lover]

Bring Sneaky NTR to the game and much ntr and your game will be boom cause we need more ntr dose

Uhm, just to be clear about the active choices the player has to make for NTR to happen:

1) The player has to choose to switch to the thief MC (fully optional and not required for other content - at least right now)
2) After switching to the girl, he has to actively seek out the event on the map (its not a random thing, you need to get to a clearly visible marker)
3) In the dialogue with the guard, you need to take a choice that is marked red - choose something else and nothing will happen

So, the thief won't be just be going off alone unless the player actively decides this, and the guard won't catch the thief unless the player allows it, and then the harassment won't proceed to critical levels unless the player chooses the red dialogue.
