Ren'Py - Fashion Business [Ep.4 v9.02 Extra] [DecentMonkey]

Everybody has opinion,but some people attack dev.
I think game is good.
I think it will be better someone help Monica and be with her,
and Monica can still learn be humble.

I like animation story dont minde grind and Monica hope the is good end for her she is cute and beautiful.

BIG THANKS DEVELOPER /S.

Excellent game with a good story and great main character.
The developer is one of the most hard-working I know, delivers constantly on time.

PRO:
- great story
- great developer
- great animation
- kinky stuff
- Melanie !

CONS:
- quite grindy
- some actions of the main character are a bit forced (not so smart)

Update v14:

Story has a nice build-up from Ep 1 to Ep 2. The grind is not much of a problem to me but right now it is just scene after scene.

Good Game. Renders are awesome. It's a grind sometimes but that only makes me look forward to the next scene(s). If you ever feel to satisfy your dark desires, then look no further. This game is not for White Knights but rather for people who acknowledge their dark desires and look for a legal way to satisfy them.

There's also been a lot of criticism because it can be grindy. Especially the last few days. That begs the question if those people ever played DMD or other games. DMD was a huge grind but an enjoyable one. If someone writes a plot, I would want him to take his time with the protagonist. It's rare that you're suddenly a bitch. It's a slow process and this game makes no exception here. Let the game be the game. Many enjoy it and while your reviews here are welcome, I don't think that the dev should priotritize your opinion over the ones who prefer the game as is.

So, you look for excellent renders? Look no further.
You look for immorality? Look no further.
You look for regular updates? Look no further, the devs are very disciplined and updates are published in a regular manner. At least honor the devs for it by buying them a beer.
You look for a lot of content? Look no further

Just download it and be satisfied and when not, that is fine. I'd never use Windows but don't bash it in a regular manner. But it's a shitty OS, gotta admit that.

how can a game, with such good start, with a motivated and skilled dev, turn this into a game that is barely playable?
do the dev hate Monica? it seems so, Monica feels bad all the time and is forced to get humiliated and raped almost from everyone.

it doesnt matter if theres other fetishes, if Monica is raped and is not enjoying it one bit, all other fetishes will be ruined. you can only enjoy this if you enjoy seeing a girl in pain, to ravish her completely without mercy, to enjoy seeing her getting raped, and knowing she is not playing a victim, she is a victim.

corruption is to make a girl turn into a more sexual person, whatever the goal is, if a cumdump or just a sexy slave, or something else, but here, theres no corruption, only humiliation and rape. theres no turning her bit by bit into enjoying the punishments or the humiliations or the depravity. she is not enjoying it at all, she is not part of the play, we force her.

it doesnt matter the quality of renders or animation, or how skilled the dev made the ui or some nice effects or the amount of work he did, the huge amount of pictures, that part is amazing and for that he deserved 5 stars. but for me, the "enjoyment" is what counts. if no enjoyment I can't give much points, and if the enjoyments turns into feeling bad, Im forced to say this game is "terrible". if the dev had that in mind, to create a depraved game, and wanted the player to feel bad, well, he succeeded.

One of my favorite games. One of only a few games where I actually don't mind the grind. There is so much content added with each update, it's impressive. The visual style is excellent. Besides the odd bug, the UI and game mechanics are quite good. Most importantly, the main character is pretty hot I also like the concept of her being a stuck up bitch to others who then gets what she deserves, it's fun to play

I'm writing a review because it is criminal how underrated this game and developer is. This is an excellent game. Good sandbox, story, not that grindy, and beautiful scenes. It is a work in progress butthat changefrom this year to last is exceptional and only getting better. Few games have as exciting and CONSISTENT releases as this. If playing a female protagonist is a plus for you, you must play this game. And I cannot stress enough how muchbetter itgets every release. BIG Kudos to the dev and his persistence. Thank you.

If you are looking to play a sexy porn game, or experience a titillating tale of a beautiful girl being corrupted sexually ... this game is NOT for you.

20,000 renders, BEAUTIFUL renders .... but the result is so not sexy. I am not taking about the grind of the game, I am talking about the VN. This dev spent his time to create 20,000 renders that results in a story that is neither here nor there. It is ALL about angry women, all angst and frustration. No part of the game is about the act of sex being sexy, or being a turn on. It is all just pure anger, angst, hate.

This dev has 1,341 patrons ... so maybe there are lot's people out there that like it like that.

the whole story has the blandness of porridge ... beautiful decorated with colourful condiments that does nothing to make it more palatable.

This game had great potential and the story was interesting. Now it has become so bloated with grind that the story is completely lost among the boring tasks that need to be done each day. If this was a straight forward game it would be great! Unfortunately you are required to do tasks each day to increase your stats little by little until you unlock the next stage, where you do more tasks day by day to increase your stats and unlock the next stage ad infinitum.

It doesn't help that there is a vague hint system that requires you to get the right stats at the right time of day to move forward. It's not fun and the beautiful renders and interesting story don't save it. Hopefully this will get a remake oneday where someone takes all the bullshit out and streamlines it, then i think it will be one of the best games on this site.

People rate this game 5/5 and I have to question if it didn't just fry their brains. First off the game is very grindy to the point where you'll ask yourself multiple times if you aren't just wasting your time. I could forgive that if the story was compelling and interesting but it's not. Even for a porn game this story makes no sense at all. All these aspects made me feel like I was banging my head against the wall over and over again.

There are only 2 positives of this game the 1st Episode and the renders.

In the end theres just not really anything special to this game. Dont waste your time.

One of the best game I've ever played. This game has a story that connects to you and also the story has very good twist and turns. Most unique characters characters which you can not find in any other games. The dev. is so hardworking he tames only 6 to 7 week to update the game which is quite decent.

The game is really well done and is telling very unique story about Monica who is a rich bich that is treating everybody like trash and like she is better than everybody. I really like to read the story and its clear that the creater really cares about his game and its details. Gameplay is simple and not annoying to play. There are things that i think could be better like Monica can shower or use WC but there is no real reason for that. It would be good if other characters would react if Monica didnt shower. Like they wont let her do her job. So she has to go shower or with wc we would be forced to use wc every 2 days or everyday. Animation are not the best thing in the world but i think they are good enough and multiple camera angles save it. episode 1 is very good prologue to the episode 2. The game is grindy but if it was changed to be less grindy it would be perfect.
5/5 stars.

my favorite game from far ! Very good job from the creator ! I litterally love the storyline , we can gradiently follow the perversion of Monica and her falling in her society. She start from the top and will try to do whatever it takes to take back what she lost. Very great narration and scenario again. I recommend it 100% !

The game must be written by a 12 years old kid. You're a WOMAN thrown in a prison without a phone call, men in next cells, not allowed to wear anything. You only deserve food by showing your boobs to the police officer. By the way, the captain that's arrested you have a second job. He's a judge at the same time and he can determine your fate without a trial. Seriously? Is this some kind a joke? STAY AWAY from this game...

Definitely one of the best game I played.
What it makes great, in my opinion, is how the character has been developed.
You can relate to her. There is a good strong content (ntr) and I personally love it. I would have pushed even more the boundaries..
It is not an ignorant all-sex game, you need to read the story and understand each character.
The overall quality of the game is very good.

Edited due to the new Event List I have changed from 1 to 2 star...
I have started the game again after ep2 splitted in 2 parts.
I'm playng EP2.1 complete and I'm sure that I will add more stars in the near future (after checking if the game is now playable as it should be in the past)

old version review
-------------------------
Too much repetitive.
No way to get good sex
The story was changed from ep1
The ep 2 is just a way to avoid the main great story the was started in the ep1

Monica is became a stupid girl
It is very difficult believe that the boss of a fashion magazine can be so stupid.

This game is the tragedy of a world where bigots and moralistic people wins.

this game is boring.
Renders are good but I do not like anymore the MC..

too much characters that have nothing to do with the story line.

Pros
game requires a lot of time to achieve the necessary corruption point to be intersting but in the quarantine times I got the time to play... so I have posted my review....

contras:
No way ROLLBACK if you miss a choice by mouse mistake
No way to load Automatic saves because they are disabled
the game playing is affected by this very strange decision
NO ROLLBACK
NO AUTOMATIC SAVE
NO QUICK SAVE
NO QUICK LOAD

My suggestion:
use unren to activate the console and use $ money = xxx to add sufficient money to buy the red dress in the clothing store or you will remain "STUCK in the another repetitive unuseful situation where ther are no sex scenes.

I will try again to play this game when it will be completed to change or confirm my review.

Edit 9 June 2020:

This game after 2 Years and more is at 0.13 version and remain a good start but the main story is on hold for so long that I have lost interest in the game.
there are still too much quests of secondary characters that are nothing to do with the MC story or in any case are only secondary events.
The main events at the office with Biff are still on hold and waiting for updates.
(the best thing is that noe (I really hope() all secondary stories a very near to the end... and maybe in he future version we will be able to back to the main story.

This game uses a "Map and Points" system that does not help to stay focused to the story (you have to stay focused to get corruption and bitchy points) and even if the story is not bad at all is very easy to loose the emotional feeling and the thrilling of the main events.

All previously contras like no rollback and no quick saves making this game not comfortable to play; if you loose a point you have to start again from the latest save...
I suggest to save every quest to avoid missing clue.. this makes also the progression of the story very slow.

I'm sorry but I still cannot give more than 1 star

Currently rating episode 1.

#### Spoilers ahead####

Started this game recently again, last played 2018 and even at this time it was oddly satisfying.

Renders:

Renders for the girls are really good, rest of the nps's are just standard assets. Animations are smooth and enjoyable.
Locations haven't been overused in other games. A huge thumbs up for the situation renders and the facial expressions of the MC. You can clearly see when Monica is ashamed, annoyed, hiding, beeing pissed and so on. That's really on of a kind.

Story:

It might be the first game which I am following for a long time now with a female MC. This game isn't just a bang simulator, it is a game with a unique story so far.
Yeah the story... Yeah, as already mentioned, unique. Starts as usual rich bitch thing and escalates pretty quick. Literally from rich to "Will suck dick for Schawarma". MC is a snobby bitch and will stay a bitch.
Quick summary so far. Hot chick married rich guy and she's running a "Fashion Business" and gets later screwed by her folks. And here's one flaw. You do not really much with your business. It's just there, not really implemented in the story, besides she likes to dress well.

Gameplay / Localization:

First releases were kinda hurtful to play but the dev team listened to the community and implemented much of the suggested features (Travel system for example).
Otherwise it runs buttery smooth with just some minur errors when playing in german.
One major flaw are the random object which are clickable and raising or lowering your points. That doesn't make any sense. Would be better if you can choose what to think in a certain situation. Take the projector inside the office for example. Click it and you'll gain bitch points. A decision in this case would be better. Or the random objects at the gas station. So for a "perfect run" you need a walkthrough (which is provided by the dev himself, kudos for that).
The absolute other flaw is the MC herself. This is a mix between story and gameplay. She is a bitch and even if you do good deeds, she stays a bitch. Good thing is, if you are doing good stuff, less painful stuff will happen to you. If you go full evil or good, many options aren't available later on. So a good mix between good and evil seems to be the best solution.

I really was surprised that the game comes with german text. The thing is, it is kinda engrish, feels mostly like machine translation and can be definetely tweaked. Translations aren't easy and fun, I know that, especially when the base game doesn't comes in english. A little polish and it will be more enjoyable. Translating my favorite games mostly for myself to my preferred language.

No idea why but the russian produced games have always the most fitting soundtracks as well.

Started EP2 and maybe it will raise the stars to 5.

Keep up the good work!

This game combines fantastic renders and videos with a very consistent and interesting story. Developer updates are often and they are also consistent and satisfying. Overall it's one of the best adult games i have ever played and is certainly influenced but has further improved aspects from previous games.

So much negative energy in the game. You can do what you can, but you have no choice and then becomes only shit. You need more action do, but progress is null. You don't see light on end of tunnel . This game is very good for masochist.

Definitly a good game with a very good, slow developing storytelling. The graphics are nice with unique perspectives and a pretty protagonist.
Over all it´s a top ten game which deserves more than 5 stars in certain point of views.

One real big con: It is unbelievably grindy. You need a hundred clicks to clean the house, another hundred clicks on guys on the street an the reactions are stupidly repeating itself. Don´t get me wrong, I´ve given 5 stars for the overall performance but without downloading saves I wouldn´t reach any progress. Somtimes you have to play for twenty minutes to see one new scene.
This game is in some parts outstandingly good but the grinding is destructive.
When the developer would reduce the grinding by 90% it could be the perfect game.

It is a special game. The pace is slow so if you want run through a game with lot of lewd scene without teasing this game is not for you. Monica is the protagonist and she is maybe the most beautiful 3dcg character i have ever seen. She is a really spoiled rich bitch but if you feel the flow through her viewpont of the world this game become a lot of fun. You can choose your way with other characters so up to you how bitchy the protagonist can be. Render is absolutely top and lewd scene animations are smooth when you see a lewd scene you can watch from lot of camera angle which is unique i really like it.
