VN - Ren'Py - Hard to Love [v0.21 Remake] [Qori Gaming]

Very good game with lot of potential.. only thing I personally don't like and hope will change is MC acting very weak.. Its too panful to watch Top Cop, Man with cool and heavy background acting like 14 year old retard. Hope it will change in future updates.

Another complain is little sister is very very ugly compare to rest of the LIs.

One of the most visually impressive games from this site. The rendering and still frames are just gorgeously done. On the subject of story, it feels a little disoriented at first as we jump from the protagonist's past and present with some things missing in between. But it will make more sense as the story moves forward and there is not that much content right now. So the plot is okay for the meantime as I didn't connect to the story until much later.

The characters models are really beautiful, especially the present version of Amber who really caught my eye as she kinda looks like Evelyn with tats from Love Season. There's not much depth to the characters with the exception of few as of now. As for the protagonist, I gotta say the dude's got no fuckin backbone. He's a huge beta despite being a cop and starts to freak out like a teen dude with raging hormones whenever a woman comes near his vicinity including his family

About the music, it's implemented well with chill background and there are no sex scenes yet. Just some teasing here and there especially with the protagonist's family.

The final verdict, it's a fairly above average game for the meantime and I would've gave it 3 stars if not for the beautiful renderings and plot structure. I'm also quite intrigued about how did the wife die, and what's up with amber and madison. So i'm looking forward to see what direction the story takes cause this has good potential.

Really looking forward too see the direction the dev is taking with this story, next update can't come soon enough!

First things first: I love the transtions in this game! you can clearly tell the devs cares a lot about the artistic/visual side of the game.

I really want to know what happened that made them separate ways and why mc's father is such an asshole - Why does he hate his son so much?

Overall: Pretty strong so far and you should definitely check out.

STORY: 5/5 so far
RENDERS: 5/5
MODELS : 4/5
CG: 5/5

One more Diamond in the making

Renders 5/5
Story 5/5
Dialogs 5/5
Animations 5/5
Models 4/5

This is a top of the top games out there
you wont disapointed for sure if you give it a chance
an original story , perfectly presented, and can make you feel you are living it
theres not enough games like this one out there

the only con i found is some body features of the models are a bit `off`

surelly a 5 STAR game - Enjoy the ride !!!

I am enjoying it. Played the prologue so far and was surprised by the amount of content. The back and forth present/past is understandable as a way to skip time but a little annoying in quick succession. Still, once it got going I was immersed. Not really any sexual content in prologue but the story makes up for it and it works better that way than giving up a cheap one night stand with total stranger.

The writing is good and I don't mean passable where you can tolerate it because it's a porn game, I mean good, which is a rarity for these games. I find that helps a lot, makes erotica steamier when you care about the characters.

The female characters look amazing. Every single one of them is a appealing and terrific job on the cute busty little asian girl at the end of chapter 2.

Not a huge amount of sexual activity as of chapter 2, but what there is, is quite steamy.

May be too early to say, but this could be one of the top dogs of erotic games if it keeps going.

so. . . . .
MC was inexperienced and thus nervous when confronted by crazy.
Not yet a simp, but not impressive.

Then not exactly reciprocally polite or appreciative of the one who basically simps for him. . . .
Prefers crazy/tsundere to his personal sexy simp. . . .

Game fits with the title quite well I'd say.

It's got proper story. which in these days means it's a rollercoaster of emotions that's not always positive and which also sucks for whenever you come for these games to unwind!!!

I'm gonna be editing this as my impression changes

Review for v0.02

Truth be told I don't have too much to say. It's a decent start and manages to stand out from the average AVN. Renders are great and an attempt at animations has/is being made which I appreciate. It's also got music and some sound effects which helps a lot for immersion.

My biggest gripe is that the MC is kinda just a bumbling pussy, which I'm personally a little sick of. He's a cop who has a child, I don't really get why he's still stuttering in almost every conversation with a love interest. Sure there's the "family" aspect but regardless I just find it tiring. He doesn't need to be a hard ass chad cop, but a little confidence perhaps would be nice. Why he's taking shit from his father and letting him insult his daughter and missing/dead wife is beyond me.

I like the characters for the most part, but the dialogue and the way characters act feels unnatural sometimes. A couple scenarios felt a little off, namely the one with the younger sister. It's fine for the most part though. I will also say I find the way texts work annoying more than anything. I like that an attempt was made at something different, but it just doesn't work well for an AVN imo.

For all my gripes I still enjoyed playing this. It's a bit early to talk about things like story and character development, but I'm invested enough to follow development of this. Good luck on making this devs!

Unique! That is what describes this game.

Everything is new, fresh, and beautiful. You could tell that every detail has been very well thought out and design. The interface, the characters, the scenes, the story, the models....

The story is captivating and leaves you wanting to know what's next. The characters have very well defined characteristics and behavior.

Each women has her own unique beauty, with personalities that reflect in their appearance and behavior.

It is still early, but I can already say that this game has everything to be one of the best. 10/10

Very nice visuals. The UI is nice, the menus, everything. The sounds and music are on point. The graphics are great, animations are great, and the girls are lovely. Plot is picking up and I am excited for the future. The team seems confident.

I'll get straight to the point. TLDR: Renders are exceptionally great, UI is unique. But the story is something else to be desired. (Update v0.02)
Overrall its descent, but feels like its mostly filler content than anything else.

Ussually when you introduce a mystery such as why your "love of your life" vanished without a trace, You will have to sprinkle in hints and ideas, to keep your audience engaged. Dev did absolutely nothing about this plot except mc getting shot, by who or what, WE HAVE NO IDEA. The plotline in this VN jumps around way too much. Infact this is a recurring thing that happens around this VN.

You get introduced to all this characters but its hard to even get to like any of them since they barely stay on screen for that long, and when they rarely do, you get these 2 manipulative (love interest im guessing?) characters that its hard to even like them. Like the spoiled little sister, who seems to have split personality disorder, teases you first then with a flip of the switch she gives you an ultimatum/blackmail to make you do whatever she wants, no questions.

The few kinda likeable characters such as the daughter who is barely on screen, only has basic conversations with the mc. The so called mother, who only shows up in flashbacks/dream.

Mc isnt likeable either, half of the time he's dreamin of the past, passed out.
other times he seems drugged up. HIs younger/older sister ( this part keeps changing thorughtout the game, i cant tell whos the young or older), has a thing for the mc, MC managed to escape from her lusting for atleast a decade from my understanding, and it only took him 1 day of him coming back to change his mind to be intimate for her.

Again, its hard to feel engaged to the story at all when there is nothing that keeps it pushing forward.

Still worth trying tho, might be good on the next coming updates.

this was quite the pleasant surprise, he has an artistic flair for his rendering and moving from one scene to the next, and loved how the past merged with the present in away that was both entertaining and easy to follow. But moving forward I hope there are not to many more flash backs cause I'm really loving the characters in the present.

Great stuff! Love it! The soundtrack is really GOOD! Renders are gorgeous and the characters are all charming and beautiful! I enjoyed the interactive elements and the story is captivating. I'm really looking forward to seeing what the future brings for this little gem of a game!

Just did a playthrough of 0.02 Full. I was skeptical with the overwhlemingly positive reviews, but they were pretty accurate. In addition to good renders, a readable an enjoyable story, and good characters (although they already seem to be part of a harem), what I loved absolutely was the text message play bit. Making it interactive was so fun, just like texting in real life. It's a simple thing but I think it goes a long way to making it an immersive experience. Great job so far. I just hope the devs stay on track with their path and not get derailed and lose their way!

Yikes. This last update was ROUGH. I thought the first two updates were 5-star quality. The latest update puts the whole project in jeopardy. What happened to the English writing/editing team? The game went from one of the best on the site to borderline unenjoyable. The render quality has also taken a bit of a dive. The animation in the latest update is very clumsy and janky--it looks like three or four pictures looping.

Did a new team take over? Did someone important quit the project? WHAT ON EARTH?

In my last review, I wrote that if the project had ended there, it would already be a top-25 game on the site. It makes me sad to say this, but whatever the dev team paid the person who left the project wasn't nearly enough. The drop-off in quality is the worst I have ever seen on any project on this site.

Seriously WHAT HAPPENED?

First of all, I want to warn you that English is not my native language. I sincerely apologize if anyone is reading this and it's hurting a little. Sorry dude!

Version game: 0.02

This game is one of the most amazing novels of its kind that I have played. And I played a lot of games.

For me, the plot has never been a priority in a porn game. We come for porn first, right? For beautiful mothers, for lovely renders, poses, and only then for the plot. At least that's how it works for me.

So, probably here for the first time I really got into the story, which, in perfect proportion, also gave why everyone plays games of this genre.

From the fact that the characters are written insanely pleasant and interesting, you empathize, imbued with their past and present, and then you feel the sex scenes in a special way too.

I was so imbued with the relationship between Antonella and the MC that I practically did not burst into tears when I saw her in a dream at the beginning of the 1st chapter after the prologue.
IN THE PORN GAME DUDE! burst into tears! It's worth a lot.

Everything in the game is really beautiful: incest, the way the scenes are set, the dialogues, the story, the rendering. But there is one BUT that I still refuse to understand.

Can someone explain to me why in every game the protagonist has such a big dick? Here it is just unrealistically huge. I have a question for all the authors who do this kind of thing: Why? Well really, why? Do you all have some sort of inferiority complex? Or do you think it looks COOL? Why can't you make a dick of a normal size? Well, at least not that big. It spoils the immersion and is very corny. No matter how funny it is, but it is precisely because of this that this game will not become ideal for me, although I would really like it.

I wish the author success in the game, I hope it will not be abandoned.

I was skeptical at first due to it's early release but my god, what a game. I liked everything about this game, the models, the UI , the story everything. You can tell the developers put a lot of efforts to make this game just by finishing the prologue. It has everything that a person wants in a VN. I will be thrilled to see an update. Keep up the good work Qori

I wasn't expecting much from this especially cuz i found it randomly becuz of the modder but man this definitely blew my mind especially the 1st chapter.Now u can clearly see this is a quality project from the rendering & animations (very few) but they do carry a level of polish & finese. Hell just looking at the menu & options with the chibi drawings alone makes u realise the effort put into this
My fav part was the 1st chapter which was really heartwarming indeed i mean we all know such characters never exist in real life but the way their love blossoms kind of makes u wish they did
My main gripe is with the 2nd chapter cuz they introduce your youngest sister who is apparently younger than your daughter but when the daughter looks like a mid school student this 1 looks like college grad & to make things worse the 1st time u meet her in person she literally let's u fondle her boobs (pinch too) just like that.It would've been so much better if she was distant to u at 1st(come on u r a total stranger to her) but slowly change based on your interactions.Thats the fault here there is no character development every family member just wants MC for no apparent reason
The 1st chapter alone wanted me to give this a 5 as it had so much potential but after 2nd Ch I'm a little over the edge so we'll see how the dev decide to move from here on, but do keep an eye on this as it just might surprise u

Very interesting story. Beautiful characters, nice renders, locations are pretty detailed. Hope that I will play the complete version. Extremely eager to see more. A straight 5 stars from me. Fricking hell how much more I gotta write to post this.

Everything in this game is AWESOME!!!!

The models, renders and artwork are all top notch. The women are all of different sizes/shapes, hair colors, and somewhat different temperments.

The rest will probably have to be Spoilers:

The mom french kisses the adult son, after showing off her body and treating him as a surrogate husband while he was a teen. We don't yet know "who" the father of his youngest "sister" is. I'm certainly hoping that it's him.

In the Intro, the sister Amber confesses her love and tries to have sex with the MC. She pulls out his cock, tries to suck it and offers her virginity to him. I'm disappointed that he didn't agree at that time. Perhaps Dev can "adjust" that scene in future updates. It would make the story make far more sense.

It seems that his daughter was largely raised by his family while he was working in another town. Her mom was gone from nearly the time that she was born. So it seems that MC was an absentee father. And now the daughter may see MC as both father AND potential lover. But we have no indication of that so far.

And now we come to Madison, his youngest sister. She CLEARLY wants to make MC her man. But she plays silly games where she pretends that it's all "innocent fun" while she seduces him. She is also in competition with her sister Amber, for perhaps more than 1 thing.

I certainly hope that there is a Harem Option. I could easily write a scrip to make MC less resistant to the women who want him. He could easily supplant his dad and become Lover and Master to ALL of the women in his house. No telling how his police partner (and "current girlfriend?) would adapt to this situation.
