VN Ren'Py Completed Game of Hearts [Ch.5 R2] [SparkHG]

[Rehwyn]

Someone always gets hurt when you take someone else's girl. The only way for it not hurt, is just for it not to happen. Or if you're sharing the girl. But I am not into sharing. So, if I want the girl, I take her for myself.

Yes, but there's shades of darkness still within that from a narrative perspective. For example, using demon influence to magically corrupt a woman away from a loving, committed relationship with a husband and children is a significantly darker story than seducing a woman away from an abusive relationship in which she's unhappy and that's already on shaky ground. Even more so when the narrative really digs into the partner's perspective, like the end for GoH did.

Based on the devs comments, if there are netori elements in HoH I'd expect it to lean more towards the later type I described above and to limit narrative perspective for the woman's partner.

The thing is, he tried something different, very niche, very kink specific. He didn't like writing it and that's fine. We stole Maxine...plain as fact and it was fine, no one complained, was very well done.

We don't need to see the mental anbguish of the stolen women's partner, nor do we need to see their perspective of what's happening (if for no other reason, it adds literally fucking nothing to the story and just wastes dev time). That was never what this story was originally about, nor had as included content for half of the story.

Just not required and the vast majority don't really want to see it anyway. Again,. seeing that, is very niche. It's enough to know we have stolen them, corrupted them and they are choosing us over their partner.

Just to be clear in case it's not from my earlier comments, I'm in complete agreement.

Maybe I'm just cold-hearted, but I'm with Mav on this one. I really don't care about the feelings of the person I stole her from. If I did, I wouldn't have stolen her. I've said it before and I'll say it again. If my best friend, who is a good person, has a girl I want, I'm taking her. I'm not thinking about, nor do I care about my best friend's feelings. I'm thinking about my own.

So, the only way to avoid it, is to not add it or add in sharing/swinging. Which I am not into at all as I have said. Anyway, just my 2cents.

Ahh sorry Wolf. I thought you were implying you were enjoying the aspect of seeing Merediths pathetic hubby fall apart etc.

I got the wrong impression, my bad.

No worries. I was just pointing out facts as I see them from the devs pov. You should know me by now, I don't give a shit if I hurt someone's feelings. In game or irl.

Fair enough, though I'd keep in mind that many others will feel differently in regards to empathizing with the jilted partner. Based on the devs comments about how they wouldn't wish that on their worst enemy, they are one of them, particularly when having to write from the perspective of the partner or the woman. So I wouldn't expect a lot of content that requires them to "sit" in those emotions for long in HoH.

Agreed. But if it feels bad for the dev to write, he shouldn't write it. He should stick to what he feels comfortable with. People like myself will either play it, or move on. I'm not into bashing others for what they like or don't like, but when people ask me, I'll tell them.

I think I can agree with this.

I don't want the dev to go too deep into the misery caused by MC to all the guys whose wives/girlfriends he seduces, but my caution is that the game doesn't turn into a "harmless" harem game, where women don't feel some guilt over choosing MC over their previous lives - moreso if there aren't any real stakes; having a boyfriend of 2 months aren't really "stakes" I have in mind. I want to see loving mothers and wives torn away from their family because of the lust they feel for MC. This isn't a love story.

This isn't a love story.

Actually, it kind of is if you go down the Affection path. On that path it's not just lust that pulls Meredith away, but love. Demonically influenced love, but still there.

And that's ignoring anything MC has going on with other LIs like Julia and Ruby.

+1 The thrill dies down when the other person accepts to share

Man , that's just sad.
You don't have a best friend in that case, you only have someone you can use.

Dunno if anyone else have said this but I feel like sparkHG is the only dev that can continue AOA academy without making it feel like a different game. Both of their artstyle is very similar and maybe he can make the scenes even better

Yes oh yes
He absolutely can, that being said I don't think he'd pickup someone else's work when he's creating bangers of his own.
Also I hope AOA comes back.

True but I do hope people at least tells him about AOA.

Blue hair girl is Adult Woman version of megan from "Lust Theory"

Please tell me which other games the girl in the middle is in besides this one? I really loved her shape.

 

[Feds Suck This White Cock]

Ahahahah, this shit made me laugh so hard.
