VN - Ren'Py - FreshWomen [S2 Ep.3 Complete] [OppaiMan]

This game is so funny and so hot. The stories and scenes are quite gripping. Especially the scenes with Lily are amazing! We are looking forward to the update. There aren't many games with multi-language options like this, and that's the best feature.

ok for me, the thing that makes this game 5 stars is the audio and the animations. Both are great. I am not sure the story is the greatest, but there are different characters, even if they all do want to bang the MC with very little motivation. If you like female lead audio, talking to you in the scenes then this game is worth following.

5 stars? Yes. Are there things I would like to have seen done differently or better? Yes. But Hollleeeeee Sheeeet, I can't get over how well done the renders and especially the animations are in this game. I can tell they changed up the quality in the last episode (S2,Ep.2). That is when I knew this game has the best rendered animation on this entire site. If other devs put out this kind of visual quality I'd never leave my computer.

Some nit picks:
1) The main character is a dufus sometimes, but maybe that has something to do with his accident.
2) The writing is ok. Not bad, not great, but not bad. And to be honest, I don't really care for these big over arching in depth stories. I'm here for the erotica and the bang. I just need that wrapped up into some sort of build up (slice of life works best). I don't need a spy novel or sci-fi epic. That's not what I'm here for. But it does have to be enough story to had a nice build up and kink exploration. This helps with the flow and edge.
3) Older women need to look older, not just 25 year olds with giant tits.
4) I'll say it again...hair down there. I know it's more work but it makes such a huge difference when some women have a little fur in the right place. Every woman being bald breaks immersion a bit.

All that aside, this is still a 5 star game to me and has the best damn animations of any game I've seen on this site especially once it gets to S2 Ep. 2. I hope they continue to make the renders and animation in the new style. It's almost like they took their models and ran it through some AI filter. Really incredible stuff.

This is a really great VN ...with great potential. I am rating at a 3, and here is why.

The author is super skilled, tells a story with good capability makes it engaging. Excellent artwork. The characters are enduring.

There are only a few other examples of VNs like this that could be at the top of their game where the author then goes on to write other really great VNs.

The criticism. The author only goes so far with how human behavior works. For the most part women don't act the way portrayed in this VN. And not by just a little bit.

If the author made more of a build up over time to where a majority of the love interests (LIs and sides) built up a crush and want for the MC this would work better.

The LIs jump right into lewd scenes and are basically robotic sex-bots. For example, it is hard to believe the nerd girl LI would just jump into getting hammered by the MCs big dick without being astonished by the MC's body.

For the most part, there is no dick-drunk from the LIs where they are wanting to be passionate about the MC all the time. Worse when they leave the scene it is like 'see ya' later' and a wave.

This VN would be stellar with strict paths. You get an LI and that path plays out to the end of the VN. Where practical, consequences for being a man whore.

As it is now, you can bang everything and it just makes the MCs character unappealing, shallow and one-dimensional.

If this VN was altered to fit more into that format, you would not be able to rate it at a 5,... only a 10 would do. It has that good of a foundation to be untouchable, and, the best.

This game is going from bad to worse…

I mean, who writes this kind of crappy text? Are you an 18y-old horndog?

There’s absolutely nothing interesting about the interactions and conversations. It’s all blablabla.

Not to mention the road the story has taken. You’re making shit up as you go and completely lost your original blueprint.

Season 2 Episode 1 blew the whole build-up from the entire first season to pieces, and Episode 2 tries to introduce a new and interesting story-arch but fails to deliver, instead it becomes boring and meaningless.

And btw, what's up with those weird faces? Certain emotions you want to emphasize, look like the person just realized he/she stepped in a giant turd.

I am giving it two stars only for effort, game has animations, voice over, e.t.c.

I found the game bland and boring, art non-attractive, scenes non-hot.
None of the characters or plot points feel believable or even remotely interesting.

Feels like a "quality" game to earn money, but it is missing something, something that you can find in less budget projects.

Like an interesting gameplay, or person, or plot.

As of now, this is no longer a game driven by a plot of long term planning. Game started started off with a direction and the setting was solid until the project's support skyrocketed on some monetisation platforms which eventually made the Dev seemingly giveup on his original vision for the game: now it's a game that revolves around whichever love interest character wins the poll of popularity, she gets a lewd scene for the next update. Yes, you heard it right, it's now basically a sex simulator, whoever wins the poll gets a sex scene and the "plot" that dev will have to come up with is forced into the story of the game. How would that work for a visual NOVEL? There can't be a seamless continuity when you are not planning to write the game based on your ideas but you are in the passive, forced to come up with whatever lewd setting to fit your poll winning sex doll into the novel.

UPDATE: I've finished playing through the game. It goes downhill fast. It's like the renders are great, but the sex is robotic as if written by someone with zero experience. Girls are invariably too easy. None of them have any real agency and they only exist to fulfill the MC's wishes. Part of me thinks the dev is just appealing to the lowest common denominator and in doing so, compromising any chance of the game having real soul. There are many other less-visually-polished AVNs on this site that deliver a much more packing punch with real story telling, character development, etc.

4.5/5 renders (I've seen better but this is definitely tier 1)
2/5 animations (sex is robotic and frankly so damn vanilla)
x/5 voice acting (useless IMHO but well done, I guess. I just turn it off)
0/5 story

so it averages out to about 2.5/5 but I'm bringing it down half a peg to balance out the other reviews (like my old one below)

OLD REVIEW:

Great game! No shortage of lewds and sex scenes, a very diverse cast of LIs of every shape, age and size, an actual interesting story (which surprisingly starts with the tired amnesia trope but slowly develops into something deeper), funny moments, fantastic renders, a fairly likeable MC for VN standards....

Though players might wish the dev had done A or B differently, I think those will come down to a matter of personal taste. For example, personally I probably like a bit kinkier stuff in VNs I play whereas this is pretty middle-of-the-fairway sex wise. But that's not really an issue, you know what I mean? More like the dev's choice, so I can't really say the dev has made any mistakes with this one.

It's not going to win the Nobel of Literature but it's pretty solid. Aspiring devs should look to this as a framework for their own projects. And maybe the dev themselves here looked to some other college-themed-VN-that-shall-remain-unnamed as inspiration (especially given the male sidekick which has almost the exact same personality) but that's not bad in and of itself

The MC is fine for VN standards even if some of his choices, highly emotional reactions, and general "game" feels off at times. But then again, I'm not expecting Nobel-level characters and writing here.

Full disclosure: I haven't finished the game yet, so seeing some of these other lower rated reviews, maybe the writing goes downhill by the time season 2 rolls in with full force? I don't know, but for now it's a solid VN to keep going through while I wait for updates to other VNs with bated breath. Again, it's like an easy choice and distraction when I need some escapism.

For now, 5/5 with gusto!

Maybe one of the greatest games on this site. likeable characters with interesting personalities & a protagonist's personality that's deeper than a puddle. Great animations & original story what more could anyone ask for?

5/5

[Reviewed Season 2 Ep 2 Part 2]

This is a top-tier game -- one of the best in active development. The production value is extremely high with beautiful girls, renders and animations. It is undeniably inspired by that massively-popular, college-bro, multiple love interest other title on the site and it doesn't quite measure up in overall story quality, but there's not much wrong with this one.

The Good ()

• Really high production value -- the game just looks great
• Gorgeous, hyper-detailed models and renders
• A diversity of love interests with different personalities, ages, body types and kinks
• You can pursue multiple love interests without obviously excluding the others (so far)
• Well-executed cinematography and visual storytelling
• An original story that has familiar elements / setting but still feels fresh
• Hours and hours of content
• Charged, erotic H-scenes with smooth, seamless animation

The Not-So-Good ()

• Updates have been infrequent and a little choppy -- I would have appreciated a quick "catch you up on the story" montage at the beginning of each chapter / episode / part
• The H-scenes feature female voice acting (at least in recent updates). It wasn't bad but it actually broke my immersion a little bit -- I would prefer not to have it. Your mileage may vary.
• I don't love the MC -- he's pretty dense, naive and vacillates between "helpful bro" and "kind of a dick".
• The story isn't super realistic and some of the plot points are pretty out there

Overall, an outstanding title with a lot of content and beautiful character models. Can't go wrong.

Would rate it 2,5/5, but imho it's not a 3, so a 2 it is.
In a TL;DR, good animations, great models, cringey and less than believable story, and lame spineless main character, this last one being the main reason I stopped playing.
I'm not asking for a gigachad that annihilates any and all opposition, and slays all the pussy in the blink of an eye, but this dude's attitude, it ain't it chief, especially with those ridiculous and annoying af reactions he has.

Try it if you want, scenes as I said are pretty good, and the models are good too, but that's about it with the game.

The history is amazing and entertaining, other games are only sexually but this game knows how to mix them, and the animations are great i like this kind of animations, i wish more games would be like this.
Sorry if i wrote something bad, english is not my first language.

[SPOILER ALERT]

There's a lot of things that I need to talk about this game.

First, I am actually enjoying this game. The graphics are great, the scenes are also great, and the VO actually pretty great too. Most AVNs that have this option are usually bad, but this is the exception. So far, I am actually impressed with the quality of FreshWomen.

Second, I will talk about the story. To be fair, Season 1 is very good. FW's story kinda reminds me a little bit with Summertime Saga, but it has its differences. The story starts with you being a freshman with some memory loss. I'm glad that the writer didn't make it permanent, that would've killed the game right away. You come to study at a college where it's located at your dad's last workplace. College is not your main mission, finding your dad's whereabout is. At this city called Minerva Bay, you meet new people and also "new" people. During his investigation, his newly found friends are helping him to uncover your greatest mystery. I can't talk more about it but yeah I am very entertained with Season 1 so I'll give it 5/5.

Season 2 however, it's kinda different, In S2 E1, the story still revolves around MC and his dad, it also gives some closure about the entire drama (but it's not over yet entirely). S2 E2 is where I have a feeling that Oppai-Man is starting to lose control of the narratives. In this particular episode, the "main girls" are mostly sidelined by the whores of Hell's Angels (previously The Station). I don't know what the fuck Oppai-Man thinking at this point, Sam, Lily, and Susan are already forgiving MC and even asking him to start over. They even gave his apartment and job back but the MC is suddenly saying no to them and proceed to stay and work in the strip club. Motherfucker just started college and decided to take over a strip club? what kind of bullshit is this? if it happened to me, I would've chose Sam's apartment and worked for Susan again rather than risking my fucking neck for some random strip club. Guess what? in the end he endangers everyone who works there and they're in crisis of being expelled from the college because Hell's Angels is operating illegaly in the campus ground. Imagine you've being given a normal life but then you rejected it because your brain didn't fuction properly all of sudden.

Seriously dude, this is truly disappointing. All I want is S2 E3 will be about MC clearing his and his workers' names and get over with it. I don't want this whole shithow become the main issue for next few episodes. Julia is also missing entirely in Season 2, what a bummer. No wonder why Being a DIK is always on the top of the food chain, DPC really knows how to write a consistent story for years. The fact that 97% of AVN writers don't even know how to be consistent need to be studied. NLT's previous work (The Genesis Order) and Lust Theory S2 are some of the example of it, I just hope FreshWomen doesn't follow the same path.

I'll keep my eye on this, I might change the stars in the future. It could be worse or better. You're lucky I gave you four stars, Oppai-Man.

EDIT: I decided to lower the rating to three stars because I don't believe the developer care much about the storyline anymore after recent update. It's getting more ridiculous at this point. Mind you, this is the lowest rating I can give for this game. I won't give it two or one star because even the story is going off road, at least other things stay true to their path.

I had a tough time getting through this

- Story 3/10 the writing is by far the biggest flaw
- Animations 9/10
- Characters 5/10 same problem as the story
- Renders 10/10
- Music 5/10
- Enjoyability 4/10

A game with good art (including animations) but that's about it for the good parts. It is heavily dragged down by its amateur writing

This game is somewhere between a 3 and 4 star game to me. 5 if all you care about are the lewds. Personally I consider this a B tier game on my personal rating. As this game is enjoyable but it is also it does come across a bit porny more than an AVN at times. But there is alot of content.

The Good

Animations - This is one of the better games when it comes with alot of animations. With all the different angles I did think the lewds were quite hot. Also with the 4k resolution I didn't notice any compression artifacts in the animations which can be distracting at times in other games.
The story - This is probably the best thing about this game. While the story isn't amazing or anything it's actually pretty good and alot better than expected.

Tho I will say part of the mystery in the story feels like it got rushed in Season 2 to finish up and move onto the next arc. It felt like it needed at least one more epiosde to finish that arc up.

The mixed

Voice Acting -
This is hit and miss with people. While the voice acting isn't top tier or anything which I wouldn't expect from an AVN anyhow. It is a welcome addition to this game as it makes it different than alot of other AVN's. As to me it shows this dev is showing some effort to be different than everyone else. I did quite enjoy the voice acting especially during the lewd scenes even if it wasn't the best and can sound kind of bad at times. Especially one of the male.

The Bad

The characters
I find some of the dialogue or scenes come across a bit porny at times. While that in it's self isnt a bad thing exactly. As sometimes being porny can be funny. The thing is I didn't feel like you got to know the characters that well for my MC to make any beleiveable romantic connection to them. As they are all easy to sleep with.

For example Alyssa tells the MC she wants to take things slow, then the next time you spend time with her you can have sex. It's as of she forgot she was going to go slow. I get it this game has the harem tag so the dev is aiming to include alot of lewd scenes.

I just would of liked to feel you got to know the characters a little better with a bit more character development. Instead of them feeling like they are mostly there for the lewd scenes and to move the the MC / main story forward.

It's not a bad game, but it's not very good either. I don't think the choices really affect anything and the characters are all very chatty. Even during the sex scenes they keep on talking and talking and it gets boring after a point. I also don't think the main story is very original and interesting.

I think Fresh Woman is great, the Stroy is great, the graphics are great.
However, you notice that the German translation was largely done by machine, so many of them don't make sense in German or are worded incorrectly.
Without English voice acting I wouldn't have understood the game.

the model suit my taste, the game enviroment is well develope. But the expression on the model face not really well. Trying to see how the story going. the clothes of the models really nice and change usually, i like that.

Version: Season 2 Ep.2

Freshwomen is weird. on the surface it seems like a 5 stars game and it took me quite a while to figure why I disliked it.

You play as a young man who lost his memory in an accident, after regaining some of the memory back you decide to move back to the town you grew up in to enroll to college and to search for MC's dad disappearances.
Soon enough you find yourself meeting all sorts of LI's, they seem pretty diverse and interesting, but more on that later.
The plot is pretty whacky but written well enough, the dialogues are up to par, everything is very pretty and the sex scenes are long, animated, and plenty.

Sounds like a 5 star review so far, doesn't it? but if you look closely the cracks starts to show.
You get no chance to care for the LI's, you spend some time with them but at no point did I care for any of them, they feel shallow, almost robotic at times, they only exist to serve their part in MC's life and it shows.
Part of it can be attributed to the fact things move quickly, too quickly. you meet a girl in a caffee and before even realising it you're part of her dance crew and sleep in her dance studio. you meet a girl in a book store and in a moment she's leading the investigation into MC's dad, it doesn't feel organic or real.
The other part is about the characters only existing to serve their role in MC's life, there are background stories, the LI's have interests and hobbies, but we never actually see that, every single interaction is a way for the LI's to progress the main plot, leads to sex almost immediately or is used to reinforce the specific LI's one single characteristic (frusrated spouse, nerdy investigator, bitchy, playful, etc), once again it all felt synthetic and caused me to disengage.
Well, there's a third thing actually. these are freshwomen, they are young, allegedly inexperienced, yet every single one of them is a horned up sex fiend that is an expert in sucking cock and providing pleasure. not only it is weird, it feels like a cheap, pointless porno.

It's like everything is made (in a very rushed way) to either progress the main plot or lead to a sex scene, there's nothing in between, no random casual interactions, no small moments to make the characters feels more real or to form any real connection to them.

So overall, on a quick glance FreshWomen is technically pretty amazing, it looks good, it sounds good, its technically well written, but its just as shallow as it is pretty, and at times feels dry and soulless.
Definitely give it a go if you like pretty pictures and don't mind skipping dialogue / gallery mod.

Great quality renders and animated sex scenes for those who fap playing these games. Other than that, I think the game doesn't have much to offer. The MC is pretty dumb and has 0 charisma. I personally really dislike the exaggerated facial expressions; maybe they're supposed to be funny but end up being cringy and childish imo. The story is so predictable 'cause it's the same concept of many other VNs: A kid whose parent disappeared, and he is investigating and blahblah, boring. The girls are beautiful, but most (if not all) are pretty shallow and lack a personality; the interactions with them feel so superficial and fake. The game is full of clichés as well, like the classic hot landlady who is ignored by her husband and is only attracted to the MC thanks to the third leg he has as cok (because all women love giganosaurus coks, right?). Very mediocre VN if you want a rich story with funny and interesting characters to have realistic interactions with. If you're just looking for gorgeous girls to have sex with, then this is the VN for you.
