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

[Ripe]

If the creator of Female Agent feels like if previous frameworks doesn't work in the long-run and he can improve everything thanks to what he learned, who are you to crap on his intent of improving ?

The problem is that creator of Female Agent doesn't know if his previous framowork would work or not... because he never built actual game that would use his previous framework. All we had is a character creator with whole bunch of skills that were barely used during lifepath portion. They were supposed to be used during Bangkok portion, but since he never built Bangkok he had no idea if it would work or not.

Scrapping months of development that doesn't work is one thing, scrapping months of development before you had a chance to see if it works or not is another... to then spend another several months of development reworking that same character creation only to drop it completely so you could do Bangkok portion means that either Crushstation is completely incompetent or is a scammer.

In the end, it doesn't really matter which of those two options is true because either way this game will never go anywhere and will never be anywhere close to completed.

either Crushstation is completely incompetent or is a scammer.

he is not incompetent
and if not scammer he is totally dishonest. he didn't stop payments while he was learning how to do job he was paid for. i still can't understand people that paying him regulary every month for years.

Very disappointed that we're now wandering around Bangkok and there's no Kathoeys in sight

 

[DevilInside666]

Doesnt look that game is progresing much.

 

[DizzyKana]

.... Decent enough but jeez.... this is progressing at a snails pace. I believe i played this what, 6 months back? Only a fairly small portion content is there lol.

Literally always hate when people gate traits or whatever behind paying. Yeah it's 1$, and just mostly aesthetic (Larger breasts option or multiple traits). But i'd prefer they just do earlier releases and public releases staggered behind. If i had to guess that's why there's so much support though. Most people are gonna want that larger option. And all the traits just to easily see all the paths etc.

What's kinda funny is for my tastes i sort of liked the old art more too.

4 years to get to Bangkok? Wow. This was a trainwreck, dude was leeching off patreon for 4 years.

 

[CorktheRat]

This might not seem all that constructive, but I actually forgot that this game was even still being made.
Now let me clarify.
I actually forgot that this game was still being made multiple times over a period of four years. There have been newer and larger projects finished in a quarter of the time with four times the quality, and that's sad. This game started with a lot of promise.

Well I warned people that the open world content wouldn't work in this game like 2 years ago. The best part was the linear story in the beginning... Turns out I was right. What I didn't expect though was that he would also remove the intro. WTF???

Deep down I don't think this is a scam, I know people will give me bad emojees for that. The dudes clearly greedy but mostly incompetent, which I think is worse than a scammer LOL. His vision was all wrong and is trying to course correct to late in the game. What he should have done 2 years ago was just kept the old system, write a linear narrative and stopped adding new clothing. The non generic sex scenes are actually good, just needed more of them and then press the story forward.

This update is actually good, though short... The problem isn't only speed, I don't think this developer deserves support because of his judgement. The decision to simplify the art shows a lack of ability to edit. Instead of rebooting the clothing, he should have just said, no new clothing or very limited clothing and spent resources into the story. The fact he wanted this to be open world also shows a lack of understanding of what made his game good.

TLDR: It's not a scam, just a greedy, slow, incompetent developer. Should greedy, slow and incompetent be rewarded with money???? No.

 

[PeanutGallery]

Oh, hey, neat. Time to see if it's any good.

Very clear to state the developer IS quite incompetent. Nothing in the older systems should have been incompatible with the Bangkok portion, even if you had never actually planned for the system to do open-world. It's a text-based game. Nothing about how the character data is stored should be capable of causing poor interactions with an open-world section. At worst you'd have to add new variables to the character later as 'derived' statistics based on the existing ones.

The update is... well, meh.
There is a lot of (or at least there is some) new content... but the content is mostly meh. Placeholder pictures, mundane events (oh, look a tourist attraction, better make a selfie!) and meaningless choices (wear sandals or sinkers, use the elevator or stairs, ride bus or taxi, etc). And the new content removed the old content - First-In-First-Out, but that's not the kind of 'development stack' people are talking about.

If people are paying to get big tits and extra kinks... well, you guys know that googling 'sugarcube save game editor' is free?

Just like everyone else on here, i'm really dissapointed that to even get to this part in the story it took years..... Each new release it feels like they add just a little bit, but take away a chunk everytime. Could write some more about the very transparent milking of finances through patreon from donated funds on the pervy gamer community, but not gonna repeat what has already been said from earlier posts.

From earlier releases they built up so much by making one of the most customized prologs that we see from games on here. To literally taking it out after working on it for so long and even after they disregarded content because of it. Taking it out was a big hit as they go from a very in depth concept, to literally making a linear story with this update. I was expected their signature touch of a lot of options throughout my gameplay, but was not seeing it here at this time. I can't say that i'm no longer a supporter of this game, but I can't tell if this is a money scheme or that the creator is suffering from one of the most serious cases of indecisiveness that i've seen to date.

I know the intention of sharing this game through this sharing community and having the creators monitor it through our criticisms to improve gameplay. I hope that by reading some of our feedback whether it would be harsh or optimistic, that they understand. We don't hate this game, if anything we love the concept of the story even if it lacks the gameplay we all crave. Many of us have been keeping an eye on this unpolished hidden gem for a very long time, but only to be disappointed time and time again. I hope my patience along with everyone that looks forward to these releases live to see the day, where we finally get to write a damn good review after a very long long long long! wait.... I'd highly recommend to the creators of this game to stop blue balling the community and just make the damn game please! it hurts to see such potential wasted : (

Also the content on finally hitting the brothel was meh >>

 

[notecrash]

Not here to add anything, just to say that I love checking the drama with every update

 

[MidaHanna]

Impressive how this game gets less content with every update.

They spend month for a fun creation process and origin story, just to can all of that to get where they should have been month (years ago).

With the money they get, there is NO excuse for that.

But probably they had to take a trip to Bangkok for 1-2 month to see how it is there and how to implement that into the game. Field study ans stuff.... but then they should have less placeholder images.

I really liked the game and premise. And even the version up to 1.6 was fun and ready to dive into the Bangkok stuff.

It is impressive that we are now more or less where the 1.6 version was, just with LESS content.

Actually, I was just thinking about that. The game would literally be better if he stuck this Bangkok update at the end of the old 1.6 content (not even mentioning that I prefer the old style). This means since the system overhaul Crush has done NOTHING but code his game's system. (Until now where he wrote the SCENARIO for Bangkok - Which btw confirms my previous statement months -years ?- ago that I thought he didn't know where he was going to go once Bangkok started which is why he was delaying so much)

TLDR (and people who like numbers) : Since the Great Game Reset (In June 2020 Crush has fully stopped working on the 'old' version) Crush has spent a FULL YEAR getting back to where he was (with less content and an ugly avatar) and less than 10 weeks of the last 15 months on writing new content.

Edit : Reading back on some comments, SuicideByTaco's comment on the state of the game is basically the same as hornguy6 made on the post where Crush announced the reset of the game. A year and a half ago...

 

[voerman]

How about, if you hate it so much, you start making your own game and wait for other to do that to you, hm ?

I do not make games for that reason. Or partly that reason. I know I lose interest in any project after a while. I couldn't guarantee the commitment required.

 

[-dirtyoldman-]

for me the only unqestionably good decision that came out of all this years of constant reworking was sending an ordinary agent to work as topless bartender, not as an outright whore, that was too ridiculous and unbelievable

everything else - not worth the delays in the best case

 

[gametime25]

So, you can't create a Asian or Black woman!?

 

[NSFWBabe]

Lmfao this game and more importantly the forums are a good source for the drama, the horny the laughs, everything. Never change y'all

 

[skyline_pj]

Our agent finally reached Bangkok in a few years. I can't believe my eyes...
And sex system is all over again?

 

[Cheops99]

I know porn game and all and no one's really going to give a shit but damn if this isn't a case of.. if you've never been to a place and all you know about it is what you leaned on Google.. don't write about it. Stick with what you know. It will usually be better. I live in Bangkok and so much of this is just laughably bad. Locals don't talk like this. They don't forget letters in one sentence and then just remember to use them in the next. The Thai translations are wrong, locations have the correct names but not relation to each other, etc. The only thing I was moderately impressed by was Baan Krung Thep.. which just means Bangkok house lol. Again.. it's just my bugbear and probably just because I live here.. if I didn't I probably wouldn't care.

Oh.. and I'm not saying they don't exist.. but I have never.. ever.. seen or even heard of a Western (farang) sex worker, bar hostess, door hostess, etc in any of the limited number of red light areas in Bangkok. That shit would damn near be on the news here.
