VN Ren'Py Abandoned Glimpses of the Past [v0.4.0] [MrStarRaccoon]

[loikl]

Well, personally I don't like NTR, but I think sometimes people exaggerate as to what it is and what it is not NTR (I won't go into controversy), I think the scene that can be avoided is not NTR and if it's just a scene, I don't see any point in creating a "skip" button but well anyway it keeps happening so....

Personally I don't mind the scene and I think it's a great game (the MC is not 12 years old hehehe).

I logged in a few minutes ago and saw an update. I look at the changelog, nothing much to be seen so I try to read newer posts to see if those who played the game have any opinion on this upgrade. That's when i find 4 full pages of hate talks about NTR.

I say WTF? A girl that the MC just met is banging a guy. It seems a bit out of place storywise, at least until we know more. This does not look like any kind of cheating or anything like it, the MC is not even present in the scene and hardly knows the girl.

I don't mind seeing multiple male characters having sex, take Become A Rock Star for example. There is an excellent scene with the other male band member and nobody shouted against him. Now, because there is a possibility that the MC might get interested in the female character in the future everyone makes it the end of the world. I'm not a fan of NTR but I don't mind watching a nice porn scene. This is only that.

Please calm down and give the creator a chance to carry on with the story.

The thing is that she wasn't banging a random guy. That was the MC's "father". The same one who treated him like shit growing up and overheard him saying he's not really his father, just before he run off. You know, the "villain" of the story. It's a little bit more complicated...

Really ? Oh I didn't recognize him. Well in this case this gets interesting. As I previously mentioned, if it serves the storytelling all the better.

The heated discussion in this thread is more interesting than the game itself

Lucky you. I get bored reading the same crap Pro/Con in every game thread where multiple guys get it.

I don't know man. I found it distasteful. You spend half of the game flirting with a girl (who is the only possible love interest so far, since everything else we saw were flashbacks) and then the dev shoves a scene with that asshole of a parent fucking her, while she acts way off character, right in your face, for no reason whatsoever. No context, nothing to do with the previous scene, no connection with everything else. It was like "You'll have to spend half of the game knowing a girl and then I'll show you how someone else fucked her like a cum slut". Why? Just to put a sex scene in the game? Like I said in a previous comment it did more harm than good. It just "killed" the character for a lot of people and there are already some who said that won't come back to this game just for this one scene.

Well it feels more like a cliffhanger to me. Anyway we'll eventually see, won't we ?

He already had a good cliffhanger with the MC seeing Lisa at the train station after all these years. I believe that scene was added as a shock factor or just for the sake of the game having a sex scene. There might be a perfect explanation for that scene, it might even be just a nightmare, but the dev shot himself in the foot with this one. When you're not going for a specific genre, people usually don't want to see the "villain", "antagonist" however you want to call him, fucking a love interest, especially when it's out of the blue. A lot of people won't wait a couple of months to see the reason behind it. There are dozens of new games every day so it's really easy to put some of them in the ignore list. The example you gave with become a rockstar (from what I recall) had the MC's best friend fucking two random groupies and a doc fucking the redhead's (I'm not good with names) backstabbing friend. There were random dudes with random girls, that's why nobody gave a fuck about it.

And no doubt there is more of a story behind that but how many of us are going to have an interest in that after seeing what has gone on? I'm just hoping we get better options here and say to her thanks but no thanks.

Yep probably but her backstory can kick rocks, like who wants their dad's sloppy seconds?

Haha maybe she's bipolar and go from a prude to a slut in minutes.

Everytime she smells cum she turns into Riley Reid.

yes but in become a rockstar no love interest will have a scene unless mc was not activiely involved with said female. so you cant really compare the 2.
