HTML Female Agent [v1.20.1p] [Crushstation]

[Dracis3D]

Dev will probably never read this, but in the off chance that he does. You're pretty desperate to create a library full of precontent that pushes your character into being a well used, openly sexual slut... completely undermining the possibility of a women pushed into a scenario she isn't prepared for. Why bother with the hypno content? Shes already fucked everything that moves whilst baring it all to everyone within the general vicinity. Your dice roll system has a major flaw, it doesn't have a 0 on it, so its always assumed that in some way, shape of form, shes going to fuck something. It also really makes me wonder why you bothered including 5 settings for attributes when you've made it impossible to progress in the game unless the player picks the configuration of stats that you preapproved. Lot of pointless inclusions at this point of the game, haven't even reached the pre-existing content yet... again.

Dev does not read this, but members of his team do. I've not played 1.10 though I have a general overview of the scene content and get most of your points:
1. Settings - Can you be more specific on what you mean about pre-approved stats/attributes?
2. Dice role - In the first game you could get through the life path with a 'normal' number of sexual partners, making the hypno seem a good game option to fix the difference. Are you saying that the only way through now is 'above normal' sexual life path. Normal being subjective clearly!

Well, would be cool to reach Bangkok being virgin or lesbian or whatever.

I'd need to double check, but if you go 'Picky' at character creation then 'Ice Queen' reputation on the Gap Year you're rolling 1d6+1d4 for total partners. Normal is 2d6+2/3d4 I think.

Well we are able to distribute attribute points during character creation from 1-5 with 3 being the average. Except there are at least two stats that can't be beneath a certain threshold. If I am not mistaken you can't even have a character with anything less than level 4 in intelligence.

While I do understand that you need to reach certain requirements to be an agent, it does seem rather pointless. At the same time, the idea of chosing a virgin agent with no sexual history whatsoever for that type of mission is also absurd. So I do get, why that is not a thing. Although I would like a path where your character is more into women than into men or who her first partner was instead of the game making that choice for me.

Tbh I actually believe he and the team have many ideas for Bangkok, but that the previous iteration of the game just didn't allow him to make those happen in any kind of timely manner.

Well, I am eager to see it. Then again, we have been waiting for what now? Three years? I absolutely like the premise of the game, but one can't help but wonder, if we ever get to see that content. I mean, as a supposed broke western backpacking tourist in Bangkok, one would assume all kind of dark, brutal and deviant scenarios to take place. As of yet everything was quite clean and neat and the so called mission prep seemed rather vanilla. All she had to do was fuck three guys and enter a wet T-shirt contest. No drugs, no alcohol, no being threatened at gun point, abuse, etc that one would expect.

This is the problem with these games, players want different things. So some would love the unprepared 'stupid/naive' agent who lands with a big shock, others want it more realistic. Being bisexual with a heavy lesbian slant is a clear option, but requires writing two lifepaths. Possibly three with a 50/50 bisexual. I gave some feedback that in the 1.6 lifepath the sexual experience gap could be huge, meaning using 'sex XP' and RNG for sex scenes could give widely different outcomes.

I'd need to double check, but if you go 'Picky' at character creation then 'Ice Queen' reputation on the Gap Year you're rolling 1d6+1d4 for total partners. Normal is 2d6+2/3d4 I think.

If you check and any others post comments I'll put it under the Dev's nose. I'm not part of the Dev team, I just talk to the Dev from time to time. But this is the time to look at any attributes that just are going to cause issues. This is another tricky area as the more choice that is available, the more that needs to be catered for in the game.

What people need to realise is that there is a storyline planned out for the PC- she has to go undercover in a brothel. It would be unrealistic to send in a virgin for that mission. The PC has to have the ability to detach sex from feelings. Her history is available to her superiors and she'd only be chosen for the mission if she fit a specific profile.

Realistically, the only thing that can be demanded is the ability to 'delay' her sexual awakening to college or once she gets into the academy.

...or you could use the same "generic" lifepath and have a point where you fill in the literal years that happen before Kate is sent on the mission (including the training missions). Much like how it was in previous versions with the "generate partners" except with a couple more dropdown fields.

I don't know why people seem so insistent on having a thoroughly descripted and long "background" for your character in what's supposed to be an adult game. It's like people forgot to use their imagination to fill their own headcanon.


I really don't want to light up the whole "Dev is a scammer" thing again because I already said I don't think he's a scammer but the reality is that there hasn't been a single effort being done towards the "spy" part of the game in months (let's leave the years of nothingness aside).

At the very least they should update the Patreon hook because it is false advertisement




(Not really complaining too much about that, I know it's just something they forgot about)

Then what is the point of all that background character building if you have no choice at all. Just start with spy part already otherwise it is just fake choice - kincetic novel like TT games.

It would be unrealistic to send in a highly trained Western agent , you recruit some local Thai girls instead. Or pay the drug dealers, or even just carry out surveillance. But I get you, from a storyline perspective you would want someone sexually experiened and emotionally resilient (probably borderline mad/indoctrinated)

said stuff

I get you, Dubai mission was my favourite. TBH Lifepath has allowed Crush to push out content quickly and that has brought in positive comments. For example this thread is far more positive at the moment.

Choice obviously does not mean unlimited choice. The reason the dev went back was because the possible combinations became too many to develop. You can either have narrow and deep games or wide and shallow games. The choices you encounter probably will have a bearing on how the agent shapes up. But it is unlikely that she'll be able to survive in the environment that is the end goal of the project without a positive outlook on sexual relationships.

If we can still consider 1.6 to be canon then IIRC the brothel specialises in Western girls and she is being sent in to replace a Western backpacker who went AWOL.

Ah sorry, you misunderstood me. I was implying that a Western Intelligence Ageny would not waste one of their agents on this type of assignment so realism went out the window a long time ago. Suspect any Western Girls in Bangkok (especially good looking ones) would be a prenium escort as well. But yes the game's intent has centered around the agent being sent to the Hard Cock Cafe which specialises in Western girls.

Well, you might be right that a Western Intelligence Agency wouldn’t do it, but it’s supposedly still being used by a fair few other intelligencies. And in v1.6 they’ve already sent in a backpacker that mysteriously disappeared, so it seems reasonable that they want someone more experienced to do the job.

It’s a fair objection, but not among the most far fetched premises I’ve heard, so personally I’ll accept it

That's what the hypnosis before sending you into the field should solve. What's the point of a CYOA if the life path is locked and the choices don't matter?
Also, why shouldn't you be able to undercover as a virgin in a brothel? If anything, that could play into a higher starting value/price for "buying" the PC to work in Bangkok, giving you more income to work with in the beginning at a detriment to your sexual skill, and maybe even a special scene with the Brothel's owner/kingpin.
The whole idea of a fully customizable lifepath where half the features are locked away cause "it's not realistic" boggles the mind. Why can't the CIA pick a young, dumb impressionable bimbo to send undercover, giving her next to no information and only using her as a honeypot to trap the mafia boss? The whole mind control sequence (unless removed in this 'revamp') solves most, if not all problems that might arise with any 'unrealistic' starts, so don't give me that.

Considering what the CIA has done before, this would actually be the most realistic scenario.

Mostly because it would make the game a copy of basically every other female-protagonist game on this site? I'm honestly sick of this flood of games with zero-agency girls who are also dumb as a fleshlight. I understand that apparently many people have a fetish for that shit, but for god sake the genre needs some variety at the very least.

I was arguing against the 'realism' aspect that people are propping up as a defense for dumb mechanical restrictions the dev decided on. That was simply an example to show how with the written scenario, there really shouldn't be limits on the PC's early life section.
I agree with you to a point. It is pretty flooded with bimbo games and I'd also appreciate there being more variety in characters, but that still doesn't mean that it's 'unrealistic' or even that it shouldn't be included. At the end of the day, Crush is somewhat beholden to the patrons' wishes, so who knows how it'll progress from hereon.

 

[Dysphorika]

I don't get why so arguing about realism where almost or 100% of games here has no such thing...

well, realism is definitely appreciated to be able to cement your suspension of disbelief and immersion in the narrative. If not realism then at least consistency within the setting. In a game that's meant to be set in the "real" world like this one, it's even more important methinks.

While I totally agree with you, my biggest fear for this game (apart from being abandoned or stuck in development forever obviously) is that this might just happen in this game as well and the whole spy part will be nothing more than an elaborate backstory.

Btw. I recently discovered Naughty Lyanna and it quickly became one of my favourite female protagonist games. I can wholeheartedly recommend this to anybody being interested in an independent and strong female MC. It even has some sort of a spy approach about uncovering a criminal organisation, although the game in general is very lighthearted. It focuses on exhibitionism and lesbianism, but even if those aren't your favourite kinks, the game is definitely worth a try.

 

[menatv]

Well, don't know what exactly I did to get this result. After the friends BJ scenes, I was apparently accepted on some UN mission to Africa. After my time was up there, I just progressed to the "End of Content" page.

That was sure fun and exciting.
