VN Ren'Py Harem Hotel [v0.18.1] [Runey]

[c3p0]

I want to be game developer and wonder why peoples are like this game?
Can someone explain?
I just tried a few times but don't like the graphics.
But I just wonder what makes this game good.

The story, the character and their development. As many others, I may have come for the porn, but stayed for the story.
Still if you want make an own thread ask your question and hopefully get answers that will help you you. You wouldn't be the first aspiring game dev doing that and wouldn't be the last or you could search for similar threads before posting your own...

What makes a game good or not depends on what people are looking for in a game.
Some people want games with well thought out stories that progress over time.
Some people want, "HI! FUCK ME!!!".
Some games, it seems like the dev is pretty much winging each release, with not much of an ultimate goal in mind except to collect all of the girls like pokemon.
Quite often, games that have not been planned out in advance, end up being abandoned, because the dev loses track of what they were doing, grows bored with it, or changes their mind about what they were doing, and they start yet another game that will likely be abandoned.

This game.
The story is good and entertaining.
It has been well thought out in advance, with an ultimate goal in mind.
That helps a lot with continuity, since without the advanced planning the story could bounce all over the place, and make little sense.
The story telling is well done, and even contains humor that can be a lot of fun.

The graphics, even considering the style of graphics that the game uses, are exceptionally well done.
Most games that use the same program for the graphics, look like someone dumped cooking oil on all of the characters, and they have grossly oversized breasts and asses that make it look even worse.
Skin is not naturally shiny, and not all women have tits the size of large watermelons, and not all asses should have wide load signs.
Not everyone likes that look, and Runey seems to understand that there are a lot of people who like more realistic body shapes.
Runey, went for a much more realistic character build and skin tones, which really helps with the games over all appearance.

I see lots of fanboys here but can't understand why they are loving this game.
They are even saying Art is 10/10.

As I said in my last post, not everyone is looking for the same thing.
If you do not like the graphics, then go look for another game that has graphics that you like.

Yeah, if you compare the art here, to where it started, or to other HS games, it's certainly one of the better ones, Runey has learned a lot, and now is using custom art, lighting, and more.

Naw. Frost Elves always leave me cold. At least Wood Elves know good wood when they see it.

Generally, I prefer the cold, so I am a bit more compatible the frost elves, but I assume they dress a bit more warmly than the desert ones.

Please tell me what is the trigger of the last event for the twins at 16.2. For several days now I have been going through all the rooms in a row and nothing.
I reached it at 16.1, then updated. Need to load some earlier save?

Sleep alone.

My only worry about desert elves is the sand. As someone once said, "It's coarse and rough and irritating...and it gets everywhere."

I think we have already started that process, but yes, it is going to be interesting, especially when they want to try it, but don't have the parts. Poor thing, they grow up so fast!

Yes, yes it does.

With sex, maybe something like this?:

"You see, A11-Y, mister MC really loves mommy, aunt Ashley and miss Lin and other girls and organic species have this tradition that when a man really love a woman, he plugs in his USB stick into her USB port and then releases a special white liquid to show her that he loves her. Your mommy was build with this USB port, but you were build without USB port or USB stick, because only adults can do this, but, maybe, when you will get older, maybe we will get you a body with USB port or USB stick and then you will be able to try it yourself."

Or maybe something else, I don't know.

And how should we explain slavery to them?

"Humans outside the hotel are mean to elves and androids, because they are evil, but humans here at the hotel are nice, so you should always stay in the hotel and never go out, because if you will go out the evil humans will try to hurt you, and they will try to use you to get to mommy and mister MC and the rest of your friends from the the hotel, but the hotel humans and mommy will protect you, but they can protect you only if you are always in the hotel, you can't trust the outside humans, you can trust only the hotel humans, never go out!" or something like that?

Question mummy: Internet says that humans and elves don't have any USB port integrated and also that the special white liquid doesn't belong to normal USB sticks and ports. Also the Internet shows 71'497'132'962 result tagged with sex, 67'432'219'706 tagged with porn, as well as others, when I've uploaded the latest camera data from MC, Lin and mummy. Though no reference about USB where found. So either you are hidding something or the internet lies?

OK, I admit, that isn't going to work .


But seriously, what should we tell them about sex and slavery? They are connected to the hotel's cameras, they probably saw MC and girls doing all kinds of things, and they are also connected to the internet, and, well, we all know what kind of things are on the internet. And they see how Lin is treated in the hotel, but sooner or later they will learn how elves are treated outside the hotel. They will see it on the internet or we will take them out and they will see elves with chains around their necks or we will take them to that beach from that exploration event where that auction was happening and by some coincidence, there will be another auction happening when we will arrive, and they will see it, and they will start asking questions. And we will need to be ready for "The Talk".

It would be easier for the android to just give A11-Y a Hitachi vibrating wand attachment, and get Maria to explain it to her.

But, Mommy, I love you and MC very much too!

Going to have to at some point, but might want to wait until they are a bit more mature, they have not learned the restraint yet, so could end up hurting someone without meaning to.

That would probably work for sex, but what about slavery? How do you explain slavery to a child?

Yes, waiting is the best option.

 

[TheDevian]

It depends on your goal, you could explain it like many, by demonstrating how you treat them as less then human, you could explain that this is the way things are but you don't really agree with it, or explain that the system is broken and we are secretly trying to change it.

Since we want them to learn to treat all people equally and with respect, we need to teach them that, before we explain how we are trying to correct the people who don't feel the same.

USBs are okay, but whatever you do, DON'T show Android your floppy (especially if it's a 3.5" one). You could benefit from the additional RAM you get with a CD, but you risk ruining the mood if you have to swap discs partway through.

Or frost elves...

Not frosted elves?

And do not upload your data into her before she is ready for it.
Premature data uploads are bad.
