VN Ren'Py Completed Haley's Story [v1.1 Pre-Patched] [Viitgames]

[WheresLucifer]

Yeah I tried again and now its running okay. Probably I was putting mod files in wrong folder. Now I put them in game folder and it seems to run fine. Thanks for your response anyways.

Well, we are humans and do make mistakes. With the lesson and learn... Usually if the developer release their update, +95% of the time the applications working without any known issue(s). If we apply mods, and same as +95% time the mod works. Once we have an issue, we should back track to find what the issue is. So only use the game as itself with out mod and see if that works. After that apply one mod at a time to make sure it works. Unlike myself, I extract the game and all the mods. few times I do get crashing. So, I kept telling myself to back track it and try it again.

Glad that you were able to resolve your issue.

Have a great day.

Choices and "relationship points" that do nothing and go nowhere, the game is basically just a kinetic novel where you get forced into relationships with Haley and Sandra, a side character I didn't care for. The only actual choices seem to be the ability to say no to a few other side girls.

Actually that is incorrect. You can break off the relationship with Sandra. On that path, you can pursue several other girls, but not as serious love interests. When you keep the relationship with Sandra, you can't pursue any other girls besides Haley and Sandra.

So there are two major paths, with several flavour choices down the lines. It's not quite a kinetic novel, but also not a massively branching game.

I do kinda agree with what you wrote about the MC, although it doesn't bother me that much personally.

...

I guess that happens later, I noped out of the game after the stuff with Haley's teacher got introduced. Up until that point, you definitely don't get a say in if you want to be with Sandra. Even if you pick all the "bad" choices, it makes no difference to the plot besides that you miss some scenes and interactions.

Which is kind of the problem with most of the "choices" in the game, you say it's flavor, but to me a choice between getting more content or roleplaying even harder as an unaware, passive douchebag isn't really much of a choice.

I wonder if the female boss route will go anywhere serious especially if you move in with her, i can't remember if you could say yes or not to that question though, mainly focused on the pure Hailey route

Guess you really should have kept playing then before making statements that are false about what does and doesn't happen.

There's no rule about having to finish a game before you review it and everything I said is accurate up to the point I played, which is many hours into the game. But feel free to report my review anyway.

You are of course free to give your opinion but I just wanted to point out that that part of your review is factually incorrect and therefore somewhat misleading to new players. I hope that you change it, either to indicate that you didn't play until the end of content or that you change that part to be correct. But it's up to you either way.

I added a note.

There is no correct or incorrect way by posting reviews. What Thialf posted that if we post too soon it can give mix review. I am a kind of person who wait until the game is tagged completed and provide my review. I rather not forget to revisit my previous review that been posted. I rather post it and move to next one.

If anyone want to provide review early, that is cool, hopefully they can go back and revisit their previous review to see if anything need to be modified.

Have a great day.

If you are on the noSandra path the MC has the opportunity to agree to move in with her and bring Haley with him. Whether or not she'll accept the reality of his and Haley's relationship I haven't been able to play far enough to determine.

My reply is completely off-topic, but anyway... There have been a couple of recent threads about this topic but I just can't find them at the moment.

The problem is that a lot of games have very long development paths and therefore few games are complete, while the games most people play are still being developed. This is a result of the Patreon business model for Indie game devs.

My personal opinion is that it is fine to review unfinished games (otherwise, how should people know which games may be good to follow) but in any case add the version number which you reviewed and, if applicable, a note if you haven't played until end of present content and/or which routes you played.

I would go a step further and say that it's more important to review unfinished games, considering it might still serve as feedback, though usually, devs don't give a shit and just "follow their vision" or do what their Patrons like, so maybe I'm deluding myself there. I don't really care, I just review games I like or ones that piss me off, especially when I feel they're overrated like this one clearly is.

That's because it hasn't been determined yet in the game, as of the latest release.

My personal opinion is that if Adriana doesn't accept the twins' relationship, there is no hope for the MC and Haley to wind up with any of the LI's in that noSandra path. Adriana's relationship with them is the most fleshed out of any of them, and it actually makes some sense for the three of them to wind up living together. Much more so than any of the other possibilities in that route. But, we shall see.

I think Sandra's friend would be more than ok with it. She's a little minx that one

That she would. But what would Haley think about that? Haley accepts Lisa as the MC's girlfriend, but is not really close to her. Would she accept Lisa as a 'last chance' living arrangement, if none of the others worked out?

A case can be made that if the MC winds up with Lisa, Haley can say she has to live with them in order to look out for Lisa's interests, since Lisa is so young and immature. That might not fly in the real world, but in Pornland, it might work.

Anyone else having problems loading save from v93? I'm using the uncompressed v95 from NOPY with no mods.
Here's the traceback file

Also, I found that most Renpy games store or backup the saves to [C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\RenPy. But I found no entry for "Haleys Story-xxxxxxxxxx". Don't know if that's related to my issue.

That's not it.

The backup for this game is out there, but for some unknown reason [to me] the folder is named 'Proj6-1532454941'. All of your save files should be duplicated there.

 

[gymnopedies]

I've played the whole game again (haley path).
I thought that with the change it would lose meaning, but it was not like that.
in fact now it makes more sense, it is more credible.
even that lost that smoke of perversion and sin.
But I'm still in love with the game and I'm looking forward to the next update, thank you very much authors

Thx for that! At least I will know for future reference.
