VN Ren'Py Friends in Need [Ch.10 v0.71] [NeonGhosts]

[Defenestrator.for.traitor]

At least you're half right.

Hey at least I already got my promise for Mason.

You knowwwww, the next update would be a little lean as is right now, only containing brief scenes with Risa and Alex, as well as the end with Gabby and Madison.

Maybe I can squeeze a Mason errand in. >_>

I do think that Nicki's sex scene in Chapter 3, on the good path, is what could be called 'making love.' Nicki holding MC's hands while she rides him is definitely a sign that she felt connected in a way that was a bit more than just sex.



There's a patch on the first page that'll add this functionality! I plan for a bit of an overhaul to some of these features when I reboot Chapter One. Unfortunately, right now most of my development time goes into just getting story stuff done, so certain things with the GUI, etc. have been put on the back-burner.

Yeah i forgot about that scene now that i remember it you are right that was more than sex

I know people probably wouldn't agree.
But this game is so good I would play it without sex scenes.

They are like a bonus to me.

Although I will be honest, I am hoping in the future.
When we have chosen a specific girl
They will have scenes where they are making love not just having sex.
Maybe a scene like that near the end of the game or something?

For me, any VN on this site without sex scenes is a no go. But, if the scenes have terrible setup and atrocious writing, uninteresting narrative and characters, I agree, they're completely meaningless and do nothing for me. So, I guess it's like a symbiotic relationship where one without the other completely ruins the experience, and point, of pornographic VNs. Glad to say that this game balances all of that about as perfect as I could imagine, which is why it's an easy top 3 on this site by a country mile.

yup, perfectly put. With no sex and too much dialogue, interest wanes. With crap dialogue and all sex, it'll just feel empty and not as stimulating.

This game is so good, I would play it without main character namely Nicki.

For me, there's a third factor. If the character models don't look good or they just look funny. It's rare but there are a few games I just stopped playing in the middle of trying them because of that factor. Most of the time, it's the opposite. The renders and designs look fantastic (or at least good enough) but the story would be written like it was done by some cringelord weeb or someone without a "voice" who just gets their writing cues from whatever is currently popular with hack writers.

A lot of asking for a harem but I think that a harem consisting of all these girls would be more like an episode of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling. Some of these chicks just cannot be in the same room together without you needing to break out the firehose. It would be catfight central. Gaby vs Brittini. Nikki vs Alex. If this was a wrestling federation what matches would you like to watch? I'm kinda jonesing to see Pepper kick Viola's ass lol.

Keep in mind that wrestling is fake. No waifus will be harmed in the making of this shit show.

Yeah, I actually really liked that scene where Nicki was jealous of Alex.
It made her seem more real imo

I have played so many games that go like this.
"Oh, honey I know you are having sex with ten other girls but that's totally okay.
None of us are ever going to get jealous or ask you to commit to a serious relationship.
Because you are so perfect"

That is generally when I stop playing the game.

 

[Sweettator Umkay]

Take the bullet for me...let me know how it is

I liked it, but then again it may be 6 months to never on the next continue to progress through the storyline.

 

[Kulman]

Yeah...you seemed to have missed those two little words reading "Pet Peeve"?
You can have zero problems with how things read, yet have something to say to those that DO have an issue with them?
Oh and don't bother with any backlash, what I said is redundant, it wasn't a question, so it doesn't need an answer.

Geez you are defensive my dude. Chill.

 

[whizwart]

*plays again randomly and just happens to look at all Jamie's pics again*

Ooooohhhhhh!!! I see what you're up to, Mr. Ghost man.

[botc76]

In games with many LIs whenever I read comments by people complaining or whining that "their" character isn't in the game enough or how long it will take for them to appear again, I am just thankful that I can find something to like in almost any character as long as they are well written.

Of course, I have my favourites, but there is only one girl I really don't like so far, because she's pissing Gabriella off so much. Well and me, of course. Apart from that, I have fun with every LI so far. And I am really looking forward to getting to know a bit more about Viola, who my MC had next to no interaction with.

I honestly couldn't think of anything more random. Probably the best match would be between Pepper and Ashe to be honest. A lot of cheap heat and flexing in that one. But don't underestimate Viola. She's probably the type to pretend to be crying against the turnbuckle and then once Pepper gets distracted by her manager running into the ring (something for that tall asshole to do other than drugs) Viola would belt her over the head with a steel chair.

oh yeah, definitely lol... geez, you gave me flashbacks. it takes SO long to find a good VN worth the time on this site that the 'urge' just fizzles out by the time you find something that's probably only above average (nothing to scoff at, mind you). im just glad ive even found as many excellent games as i have; they update regularly enough that i havent had to search for a new game in like... man... probably almost a year. i mean, i have a text file where i've built a list of 'maybes' from forever ago to check out and just go through 1 or 2 items on that list when i feel like something new (which usually ends up in the recycle bin, ofc), but i havent actually searched for a new game on this site in all that time. i should probably comb through again in case there's any new, promising ones... but i also dont want to disappoint myself and feel like i wasted my free time. first world problems i guess..

I'd say it's like the old joke about 3 types of beer - warm, free, cold, and you only need 2.

I've found games are much like that with the three categories we've all mentioned. Optimally, a game has all 3 but we often find ourselves playing games with beautiful renders and good writing but crap sex COUGH OCEANLAB or alternatively, great boobies and sex but snorefest weeb dialogue. So imo most players will tolerate games with 2/3 of these things, and typically it's the dialogue than draws the short stick; which I can't fault people for, it's a helluva lot easier to hold the ctrl key down and fap to legit hot sex than bate to hours of sexless droning narratives, however brilliant they may be.

This game definitely has potential to join that 3-star-michelin-porn club, with existing members like PC, LOF, DS, BADIK.

Yeah, It's hard to find games that suit my tastes.
But my favourite games listed under my sig are really good story-based games imo.
