Ren'Py Abandoned False Hero [v0.39.1 Beta] [Enyo Eerie]

[AL.d]

Whether you see it as control or not, the decisions the MC makes influence the reactions around them, so that could be considered a form of control. In the vast majority of AVNs, direct control is rare if even possible. Most game writers don't write their games to permit it.

I don't think multiple protagonist is as narrow as you want to make it. If you filter the games on F95zone alone, you will see 2972 games that are tagged as multiple protagonist. Intimate relations and Sexual satisfaction are two of them, though, in reality, in both of those games, all you "control" is the MC.

"Protagonist" in the context of gaming obviously means MC, no point using general definitions, we are talking about games here. The vast majority of narrative driven games (meaning games driven by a plot), in any genre, use a single protagonist controlled by the player. For good reason. Controlling different characters in a story hurts immersion as you are becoming more of an omniscient figure who just moves the plot as they see fit. No suspense or drama and definitely no bonding with any of the characters. I find myself simply not giving a shit about what happens in games with multiple protags.

You could argue these are just my personal opinions. You could try and use the f95 (arguably biggest weg community) filter yourself though and see the most popular games on here. I only bothered with the first page and didn't see a single game with the multiple protagonist tag. I'd wager that's no coincidence.

Let's not pretend that multiple protags is some pioneering attempt to break the mold. In most cases it's indicative of a writer who can't write a story meant to be told in first person game format. And that's why that tag is often followed by the abandoned tag sooner or later.

Taking everything else into account, it's a worrying sign seeing this tag here, that's for sure.

Maybe a dumb question but is there a rename mod for version0.3? didnt find one and the 0.25 mod doesnt work

Tiffany is maybe the hottest character in any currently running VN. Can't wait to see her get fucked by whoever (MC, Mark, doesn't matter to me).

Will there be an updated Gallery Mod?

Is there incest or incest mod in this game?

According to the plot, i could say there is intention of the twincest.
The mother/daughter is another promising thing. I think he wanna dance around with this, to look out the market reaction (but you guys too boring too feel that heat). The more slutty Melanie (mother) that he's going to build up, the more corruption happens to Tiffany (daughter). I believe that.

I loved this games dark side and became a Patreon a while ago. Haven't played in a while so started a new game. Wow big changes. It's a totally different game. I'm going to have to sit down and just simply play from the start and really get a feel for the game. Fingers crossed. Just really surprised. Like a different game.

*Edit: Just got done playing, couldn't get all the way thru b/c, well, you know . Gosh dang this is one of the best f'n games on this site. There are like two really good corruption/bad guy games on this site and this is one of them for sure! My one quibble is the wall of text with no change in expressions. Minimal changes in expressions when it does change. I also don't get the reason for the live in crazy girl. She's hot as shit but why is she even in the story? The mom, daughter and twins carry the story. Secretary can be a great corruption story but the live in g/f...I'm not sure what she adds. Someone help me out here. What am I missing. I just didn't understand her story line at all.

damm tiffany is a cutie cant wait too get her drunk and be the college bicycle from one day over night

 

[Spyderwraith]

So at noon at the twin's cafe you cannot get coffee or advance time. the options are greyed out and/or do nothing.
edit: also this happens in the afternoon too
edit 2: you cannot advance time at work in the main area either in the evening

Go to the Latest updates page, open the filters, put multiple protagonist in as the filter. You will find 2,972 games that are tagged multiple protagonist, two of which I mentioned in specific. I am going dark on this thread because it is now very off topic.

...I never said they don't exist. I said games with single protagonist are far more successful and that's indisputable.

Regarding this game, I see no reason for this change. On the contrary, switching to (most likely) female protags would be like a bait and switch for a good amount of players following this.

I have lost count of iterations this game has gone through. Hopefully it will settle with the certain story at some point.

Are the changes in Melanie's story only in this update or did they happen already in 0.25 beta? The changelog for that and 0.30 are merged.

I'm wondering because I already played 0.25 beta and it seemed to me Melanie was being (slightly) reluctantly corrupted so I'm questioning whether this is the already more willing Melanie or if she's become even more willing and less in need of corruption in 0.30.

Not that I care much about her. I want Tiffany and the twins. As long as their story has not significantly changed I'm not too concerned.

I'm hoping that even if Melanie's character has been changed more I can go on with saves from 0.25 (which it seems others have said is possible) and if Melanie's story seems oddly out of joint I don't have to care. I'm only trying to corrupt her because it seems that's the path to Tiffany.

I think they are from this update
It did change the intro part, started a new game and couldn't go to Melanies home from the start, had to go to work to open it.

Personally I really like the changes to her and Tiffy's story
