VN Ren'Py Halfway House [Ep.11 - Bonus 7-8] [Az]

[NeroZee]

Having just finished my play through, I believe the Dev wants to show that Ash is having a difficult time adjusting to her feelings for the MC. Also, Ash states that she feels that Em belongs to her and Em is falling hard for the MC. I sense a love triangle is going to be happening soon. I don't see a harem tag in the future according to the planned tags, but the Dev may end up adding that ending along the way.

As for the MC bitching a bit, I think that has to do with the fact that he is stuck at home doing chores and playing games, which he doesn't like all that much. He wants to get out and genjoy his freedom after being in juvie for so long. I also believe he is at a loss of what to do with himself. Being a street rat/thug to joining a home that has him feeling like a family just might be throwing him off a bit. He is playing up the pity party for the girls though, working that sympathy card pretty hard.

That could be the case, i guess we will find out in the next episodes, at least the MC found out that Ash told him something in previous episode she hasn't even told Em, so she is definitely opening more.

Yea that could be that too, still kinda wish he would man up a bit now, he was pretty great in previous episodes.

I'm glad that there was an update to this, but what, 5 months since the last update? My end of episode save was in January. I hope that the dev releases more content at a speedier pace. But maybe I'm just spoiled from WVM and Ecchi Sensei's releases and expect too much.

Has the dev changed his mind on the relationships?

At the start he told us only Emily would be a romance option, the story was about her.

The other girls would get fucked but not part of the ending.

Has that changed because that's the reason quite a few of us dropped it?

This is Emily or Em to her friends. This girl is the most important character in the game. She's your potential love interest. You can do all kinds of shit with other girls of course, this is a porn game after all but this character is the only one you'll form a deep emotional bond with plot wise. She's the same age as you. Nice, sweet girl. Kind and loyal to her friends. But she's got a nasty temper and will kick your butt if you piss her off. So be nice. Oh, and before I forget, she hates perverts.

I was wondering why everyone had corruption points but Emily had Love points.

It is so weird to have something like 4 or 5 that MC will sleep with but somehow won't have a deep bond with them, but this one random girl is the Game's goal. It would make sense if it were a game where you are already in a relationship with her. How it is though, she is probably the person least bonded to MC depending on choices.

Now my family will always be ashamed I didn't marry a doctor.

I got excited thinking he'd changed his mind for a minute but it's just a few people speculating, from what i'm seeing she's still the only love interest.

Been waiting so long to see if that would ever change but it's not likely to at this point.

Shame, some of the other characters are far more interesting.

Agreed, Emily seems to be the most Milquetoast character in the game. Even her friend who was bullied seems more interesting.

I didn't know about the whole limiting thing until you mentioned it, but I also came into the game on this latest chapter. Figured it was going to be more like the Daz version of Love & Sex: Second Base. Having built in roommates you can have a relationship with if you want but also being able to choose and pursue whom you want.

That was definitely needed as the links posted are unreliable and suck. Uploadhaven keeps cutting out halfway through and anonfile has a bandwidth limit.

That's what we all thought when it first launched.

Got put in a house with 3 women to pick from then the dev told us nope, we get to pick 1. We can sample the others but they have to stay on the shelf, we can only take Em home.

We did try and fight it and get it opened up but dev says he has a story planned and wouldn't budge so a few people stopped playing and I sat on the sidelines.

Only thing left is to hope she has some character growth and adds a few more dimensions because 1 isn't enough. It's a shame because her character is quite pretty but when you have a basic girl in a room with 2 rather large personalities, she seems bland in comparison.

 

[mordred93]

The Dev used the Boy Scouts logo on a medical form, in a porn game. I don't know if I am impressed or mortified.

Plus her having an anger/violence problem. That doesn't help her out at all, especially when MC has one too. Too many real life relationships where that leads to a homicide/suicide end.

That is a Fleur-de-lis, a long time used French symbol, still not anything medical, but not specific to scouts.

I have a couple different saves going at the moment (Pick the other girls exclusively, pick Emily exclusively) and we will see how that goes over time. Emily is fine and the other girls are a distraction, but I can see a true connection forming with Emily. Her jealousy and rage might get in the way of different runs and I can see that making her much more interesting vs being a more "virginal" character she is portrayed as now.

Speaking of kicking up dust, Ashley I can see be catalyst for that happening if she decides to reveal some of her past exploits with the MC.

I keep coming back for the dialog and the graphics.

While I agree Fleur-De-Lis is a long time French Banner - The eagle, shield, stars, etc. on top of the Fluer-De-Lis that are on there are the BS logo. Not mucking up shit - just thought it was funny as a French Eagle Scout

You may be right, I was going off the image you posted which shows a small symbol, so I can't tell if it has the other attributes.

The Assets in this game are all over the place...
Just look at the licence plates:
The Porsche and the Fiat have a german from the State of Baden Württemberg. The yellow doctors car has one from Munich. Most other cars have UK and I think the ones on the ambulances are french!?!
Yet they seem to live in a city with NYC Style row houses and have the mediterranean coast nearby...

So confusing.

Blew it up on my PC, advantage of a 32" monitor .. No worries .. Didn't want to post a large file back up to f95 .. so might be grainy.

"Sharing, Swinging,cuckold..." what a shit...

Emily is the only LI in this game, I've basically assumed that Ashley will end up with Luis and Sam will end with Monroe. Emily isn't going to do anything, she is far too untrusting of men to do anything like that. Also, cuckold isn't in the planned tags, don't know where you got that from. It says no hard NTR, which cucking would be.

Wow that's awesome of you to not only provide a mega link, but also to tag everyone who couldn't download. I had already downloaded from a google drive link someone posted, but you obviously didn't have to go out of your way and do this. So much appreciated.
