i'd like to understand what you mean by "simple renpy". while i have similar tastes to you (rpgm and sanbox over vn and kn anytime) a lot of the great sandbox games have been made with the renpy engine and that at least since 2017 when i discovered this site. " vew of family" is just one example and there are many more even from that era. it's a fantastic engine imo, allowing a lot of freedom to the devs and is easy and practical to use for the players.

I was talking about that in simple RenPy you can't do anything except picking choices from time to time while reading a story and watch the scenes,while in other engines as SandBox,RPGM and Unity you can do a lot of actions - moving around the map,going from one place to another,picking which clothes to wear or buy,trying to find something or someone,doing cam shows,buy specific item for someone to do some side quest,work and make money...and etr. I'm not talking about how good the design and scenes are made,of course they can be made good or bad(although if we speak about quality Unity has the best quality and after that it's SandBox) it all depends of the developer's work! For example,look at Anna's Exciting Affection and Fashion Business that are probably the two most popular SandBox games or some other games that are SandBox and where you can move around the map going from one place to another - The Tyrant;Innocence or Money; Steps of Debachery;Lida's Adventure...that are only a few examples where you are able to move around,buy stuff and even do some side quests instead only reading a story and watching how the scene changes while you keep reading the story and eventually picking a choice! I hope now you understand what i mean!

I'm pretty sure you know what i mean by "simple RenPy" but i will say it again - "simple RenPy" are the ones that you can't do anything else except reading the story and simply making choices from time to time and look at the scenes that are switching while playing the game - it's pretty much the same as reading a book and then moving to the next page/chapter or you can also say as one of this old "book games" where you read a story and then you need to decide what you will do and depending of that switching to the page with your pick - you know what i'm talking about?
SandBox RenPy are the ones that provides you to go around the map,picking to which place to go,sometimes even picking what clothes to wear from your wardrobe,finding or putting a specific item at some place,after going to a certain place picking on a place or a character to do something or interact with... - pretty much like RPGM ones but in RPGM games there is a lot more moving since you are able to "move" your character to all places and even fight if necessary while in SandBox games you just need to click to the map and/or to the place you want to go and it opens the scene there without need to move your character around the map/world and do anything else. I can even give you a example with Anna Exciting Affection that at first was RPGM game and then after starting the second chapter of the game the developer decide to make it both "SandBox" and "simple RenPy" so if you did play it then you will definetelly understand what i'm talking about.

well, 8 years into the world of f95zone and adult games, i was never aware that there were two categorically different types of renpy. thanks for the clarification. the ones i play and like must almost always be sandbox renpy. gotto have some sort of agency to focus and keep going. anna e.a. has always been in my list of to play games. this one has pretty models but the progress is too slow and tame for my liking.

at the start of day 34 the dialogues turn to russian. i am using the walkthrough mod by dedalo_69. does anyone know how to fix this?

edit: ok, after a fresh install, it turns out the mod has messed up the languages. oh well, it was largely useless anyway, with no description of what will happen when you choose something.

Back then, I basically told all the men I wasn't interested in them...I entered into a lesbian relationship after dumping my boyfriend. When I continued playing in season 2, my boyfriend was suddenly back, as if we'd never broken up. Is that still the case, or am I finally rid of him? I only know that someone criticized this and considered it a logical error on the part of the developer (to put it politely).

Check out Steps of Debauchery if you haven't yet.
Unless you like seeing FMC's being turned into total sluts then id say SOD is not for you. Don't get me wrong, it has a good storyline, even though the DEV/creator does not fully understand what Debauchery really is. They use the tags like blackmail and corruption to justify Debauchery creating a total slut, yes I've played it and I'll continue to do so until it completely misses the whole Debauchery meaning, but yeah its still good so give it a shot

Isn't it funny how people leave comments regarding this latest update, complaining about the language jumping from English to Russian partway through? I have the same issue, but it's nice to see that the DEV/Creator seems to have no interest in responding or even providing a fix for this issue, and I've been playing since it started under a different name.

even in S1 and some of S2 I noticed Russian at random times tho usually just 1 or 2 words not like that screenshot above. I haven't played in awhile tho. I'm waiting for Season 3 to play again ever since I heard it might be turning into a sandbox I don't have any confidence it will be a good sandbox. So want to wait that that is out to see if im gonna drop the game or not before I catch up with the few updates I skipped

To be Honest I don't see why they want to go sandbox, better of keeping it as it is but work out the bugs and get a grip on the story, it was good at the start, I don't understand how it could start going wrong, you might not want to get the updates if you cant speak Russian, I was lucky with v1 had no issue with the language but this latest v2 his half english and half russian.

A lot of that should have been fixed, but who knows probably not, the game has always been buggy as all get out. There was a big issue where her name (Kate) would show in Russian a lot.

I own on it on Steam (both seasons) but have barely played more than 5 minutes since I've got them when they initially launched.
