VN Ren'Py Friends in Need [Ch.1-7 v0.73] [NeonGhosts]

[ffive]

The guys you are responding already worded it better than I could what I was looking for and why I am baffled how no dev seems to try that power fantasy, where you explore each others kinky side, but stay loyal.

Hmm i think Long Story Short kind of has this middle ground, at least for the time being -- in relationship with Ann you choose if you want to keep things vanilla or encourage wider range of sexual things, but all sharing is very much optional and you also get a content switch to enable/disable LIs independent decisions.

You also get it in Our Red String with Ian/Holly route -- Ian gets Holly to (slowly) open up, but they remain exclusive. Even if you choose to shake things up with Lena's interference, you get to decide as Ian if you want to turn things into a poly relationship or not.

Granted, in both cases at this point it's unknown if things stay this way.

Specifically, to the part of it how the MC doesn't get to dictate the other person how they behave but might end up getting cheated on or "has to share", in the sense it's not voluntary act on the MC's part. My point was that such outcome isn't very surprising, given normal human behavior. If anything, it's the desire to have a partner that one gets to keep as some sort of mindless sex "pet", that's more to do with "porn logic" where such blind obedience is more of a thing.

In my experience those kind of relationships don't tend to extend beyond the bedroom. Most serious subs that I've met are people who have serious responsibilities in their day job - doctors, lawyers, executives etc who are ready for someone else to be in charge. Or they are people who had very strict, usually religious, upbringings and are ready to try kinky things but need it to be someone else's idea - so they have "no choice" (but they do). In either case, that relationship doesn't extend beyond the bedroom and they would certainly never share that part of themselves with strangers, co-workers or anywhere public where they might see someone they know.

Most serious subs that I've met

Almost 30 years in the 'scene'...

Most of your posts have been pretty good...but to quote your 'most serious subs'...most are actually submissive to their dominant the minute they walk through the door (what's often referred to as 24/7, usually wrongly also), not just sexually in the bedroom, given that in D/s, it is 90% pyschological and not physical, if we are actually talking about 'serious and true' subs.

A bit of kinky sex and letting your partner take over, a dominant nor a submissive does make. I will agree however that a majority are in high positions and high demanding/stressful jobs.

I haven't met many of those - who are submissive to their partner 24-7 - unless there is some form of abuse going on. If someone is submissive out of genuine fear, that to me is something different - that person is a victim, not a sub. I've known of a few cases where a young woman or man is with someone older, who basically takes over the roll of a "parent" - that too is a little different. It is still a variation of the D/s relationship but again is particular to the couple and not something that the sub is likely to share widely, accepting a submissive role with others beyond their "daddy" or "mother" figure. In any case a sub who is willingly "shared" is an entirely different level than mere "sub" and requires an entirely different conversation and the only sub I've met who is willing to be sexually submissive with basically anyone at any time was a prostitute who gets paid quite a lot to play that role.

At any rate, I think we've hit Off Topic. Neon may play with bits of those things but this isn't that kind of game, at least I don't think so. I can't see MC taking one of the ladies out to a club on a leash and who exactly might he "share" one of them with. I can see a few MFF scenarios but for MMF ... who? Jamie? Lucien? Brent? I can't see any of that happening. I certainly can't see it being automatic (non-optional).

Now I understand why this trope that I hate so much is so prevalent, there seems to be many of you. Every single game where I tried a 'corruption' route it has always ended in sharing/swinging, or cheating, it's as if Devs cannot conceive you would like to corrupt a character, make her break out of her cage and become more lewd and keep her for yourself as a sex pet, no, she has to become corrupted for the entire cast and the MC always has to pass her around...

Shoutout to Photo Hunt, that was the latest in a series of more of the same (imo, unimaginative) bulshit.

Well none of that's my fault

I don't support forced sharing in games, I hate that as much as the rest of you. This game however is clearly all about choices, so if it were to be a thing, it'd definitely be optional. But no one has to sweat or anything, because it isn't going to happen, it's just a scenario from a fan. It sounds like there will be a sharing route with Brit and that'll be the extent of it in this game. Which is good enough for me.

Although, tbh, the little scenario I came up with isn't really about the sharing aspect at all, that's just a minor detail; it's more so malicious incest corruption of two characters that would find the event absolutely mortifying. That would be a ton of fun to read for me, and maybe even a ton of fun to write, trying to figure out how Ashe & Cole would each react and how they would mull it over in their heads over time.

Little side note btw, tbh I wasn't even into sharing, like at all, until Desert Stalker. And that game had it available as a choice, which is key. So, I really appreciate when games offer stuff like that as a separate route, because sometimes you get curious, go for it, and it ends up opening your horizons a little and you discover something you're into that you had no idea you'd be into. That's always fun. I also never thought I'd be into incest roleplay in a game until that Ashe scene. Why do an incest roleplay scene when you can just have an incest scene? Seemed so stupid. But then Neon showed me the way, and now I know

so anyone can tell me difference between vanilla and other version? (Yes i read dev's vanilla version is the patreon version thing)
What is the difference? Ok, dev said vanilla has less content (Since vanilla is patreon version it sounds real weird)

Can someone make a short description or if it is already explained in somewhere can i get a post link for explaination?

 

[MilesEdgeworth]

the vanilla version doesnt have the protagonist indulging in his darker impulses, i.e. rape brutal sex etc on women

I know which version I'd play.

 

[DarkDaemonX]

I dropped the game once it made me choose between content for Nicki, Risa, Pepper, and Ashe

 

[hello.jpg]

I've had my eye on this for probably more than a year, knowing I'd like it, but held off. Playing for the first time now and it's even better than I thought.

Love all the little moments that make the various routes feel more real than just unlocking a different scene variant

One example - Nicki (domination) in the handcuffs throating MC while he's playing a video game and they're talking about the charity. Little free use vibe - unexpected and hot as fuck!

I do like that scene but it feels like there's a bit of a gap story wise before that scene it just goes straight to it.

 

[Deleted member 8364339]

How do I get Risa to invite MC into the shower after motel sex?

That's true. Figured there were a few days of timeskip, but honestly I didn't pay close attention to the timeline so not sure if that's true or not

Still, a very small criticism considering how much plot development is happening all over the place

Pretty sure such a scene is not coming, thankfully.
