You can't say it wouldn't be nice to have voice lines in that game, if you say so, this means your a straight up liar (or an anti-new technologies person which is not good for the game's health). You're probably scared you won't like the voice lines and probably think you will detest the game afterwords but you don't know if you don't try! Don't be scared of adaptation. There's always a way to make things great and better. First time you tried the game, did you expect anything? Would you speak the same if the sounds were already included? Probably not. Knowing how Runey did awesomely great in this game so far, i'm convinced it would be a great addition to the game no doubt. The guy is very knowledgeable and i know he would make the right choice whether it is to choose the girls to get the voice from or when to put them in game. Also when you say people, that doesn't include me because i would fucking like to hear some sounds when fucking Lin or Maria and i know i'm not the only one who thinks that way (sounds are what excites the most!). Images make you big, sounds make you cum never heard of that? You would be less happy if you were forced to watch porn without sounds than with them (it's just how it is *shrug*). Look, i'm just saying it would make the game more alive for porn game enthusiasts but as i said in my last comment, no matter what happens, this game will always be one of my top tiers.Please no, no, just no.
The best for this game is what Runey wants. As for doing only partial voicing, that actually detracts from the game, it doesn't benefit it. People don't typically like things half done even if half done was unavoidable and that would be a situation where it would seem half done. It would have to be fully voiced or not at all because of this, it is VERY jarring for a character to speak a line just moments ago just to be rendered mute the next.
Also, as far as voiced sex scene lines, not a lot of people like that, Devian and myself are two examples. AI Shoujo and House Party are a different type of game where voiced lines are pretty much expected, Harem Hotel is a VN, a type of medium where voiced lines are nothing but a bonus that is rarely ever expected outside of the big VN developers that are known for almost always hiring voice actors, these companies being much bigger in scale and far more capable than a single person developer, no offense Runey.
Not me, I absolutely hate most game voices in these games, and mute them right after the music (which is always the first thing I do, because I also hate that in most games, and many times they start blasting it before I can even get to the volume options, so my whole neighborhood gets to hear it before I can turn it down). It's just annoying at best, even when well done, and embarrassing as fuck at worst.You can't say it wouldn't be nice to have voice lines in that game, if you say so, this means your a straight up liar (or an anti-new technologies person which is not good for the game's health).

A lot of people lose their shit when an anime is dubbed, and insist that they watch the subbed version. They're many many reasons for this im sure, the voice not matching up with what you thought of in your head is probably one of them. I don't think it's needed at all honestly, I don't think it is worth the effort to get voice acting. Maybe if he does a kickstarter to finish the game and it gets overly supported then he could but, otherwise meh.Not me, I absolutely hate most game voices in these games, and mute them right after the music (which is always the first thing I do, because I also hate that in most games, and many times they start blasting it before I can even get to the volume options, so my whole neighborhood gets to hear it before I can turn it down).

Visuals and story are what excite me the most, the last thing I want is audio.
Just imagine you have a voiced character, and it doesn't match what you have in your mind, or worse, you can't stand it...
Though, few things are worse than a voiced MC...
I never said it wouldn't be nice to have voiced lines in general, what I said was I don't enjoy voiced sex lines because it's always the generic porn moans and lines that get used in literally everything that gets audio except the occasional voiced VN. I am not against new tech, but you would be wrong about whether being against new tech is bad for the game's health, it isn't because I am only a player and even if Runey was, it still wouldn't be bad.

Oh boy, do they. You don't want to know how many times I've been on the dub side of that argument. Then again, I don't mind subbed if it is the only option. The mismatch of voice is definitely a big one and that is a concern I have with the voice idea in this game. Agreed, it isn't necessary, this IS a visual NOVEL after all. Definitely not worth the effort. Maybe if Runey had more hands working on the game, but not with one person. Very true on the space concerns, audio files can be massive compared to other file types and this game is already pretty big.A lot of people lose their shit when an anime is dubbed, and insist that they watch the subbed version.

Plus having voice files would add tons of file space and the game size would likely triple in size and people will complain that much more about it.
Generally speaking, I am one of those, though I will watched dubbed in some situations, more now days due to the ability to watch them while I am working. That said, other than some bad translations, loss of cultural aspects like honorifics, and localizations, my main problem with it is that there are so few voice actors in the U.S. that do anime, so almost every show has the same voices, so if you are not looking, it can be hard to tell what show is on.A lot of people lose their shit when an anime is dubbed, and insist that they watch the subbed version.

Oh sht i just seen this. Bro rip your neighborhood, you have to work on your sneak skills xD Who cares if they heard you, everyone is doing itNot me, I absolutely hate most game voices in these games, and mute them right after the music (which is always the first thing I do, because I also hate that in most games, and many times they start blasting it before I can even get to the volume options, so my whole neighborhood gets to hear it before I can turn it down).

Bro i don't buy it. Any female could make your pp go hard. I'm telling you, i'm sure at least one of Runey's chosen voice actress would make you so hard that you would think of me. And then you would brusquely toggle the sounds off and keep that to yourself, am i right? Runey is brilliant as fk (the guy knows how to make a dick hard) and i'm not here to change his game or anything but i just know the game would be better with sounds because the best sex is having all of your senses active (ears, eyes, touch, balance and smell). Ears, eyes and touch would be with porn games. I don't wanna flood this feed with this conversation because i know the guy is sick of this and has already loads on in mind. So i'll just let destiny decides of its fateI never said it wouldn't be nice to have voiced lines in general, what I said was I don't enjoy voiced sex lines because it's always the generic porn moans and lines that get used in literally everything that gets audio except the occasional voiced VN.

No, I'm not scared I won't like the voice lines, that would be a silly thing to be afraid of, but I already know I won't like it. What I AM scared of is the game taking hits because Runey tried to do something that we all know isn't feasible on a one person project because someone asked. I won't detest the game, Runey couldn't pay me enough to detest this game, not even Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk combined could pay me enough to detest this game.
Here's the thing I HAVE tried voiced lines AND voiced sex lines, that's how I know I don't like voiced sex lines in games or half done voiced audio in anything. I've played the Neptunia games, games that are pretty well known for having unavoidable budget issues that resulted in some lines not being available in English audio, Japanese audio, or both audio languages. They couldn't avoid it, they funded as many voiced lines as they could and just didn't have enough for the whole game, but had already budgeted toward having voiced lines in the first place. Runey doesn't have to make that mistake. There is always a way to make things better, but voiced lines in a one person developed VN isn't it.
The first time I tried the game, I expected it to be just a typical porn game and was proven horribly wrong. No, I would not speak the same, I wouldn't be playing if sex sounds were included, it would have already failed to keep me playing a long time ago. If voice audio, not including sex sounds, was included, I would be praising Runey for his miraculous ability to have funded a fully voiced, one person developed VN on his own. That is an insane task for one person to take on alone financially speaking and we can't forget the effort of coordinating with all the voice actors. If the audio was only half done, meaning not every single line in the game was voiced outside of sex sounds, I would also have dropped the game very quickly.
It would be a great addition to have voices for the general speaking lines, but the effort and funding required is just not feasible for one person and threatens to drag the efforts he already puts in down the drain. He's better off focusing on what he has already been doing, making great visuals and writing a great story.
I know it doesn't include you when I say people, people just means more than one person whether you are counted or not. There are at least two of us who wouldn't want voiced sex lines, so people is the appropriate term there. Hate to break it to you, though, but sound is not always the thing that excites the most. It does to some people, including yourself, but not everyone. For me, granted I'm in it for the story alone, it would be a huge turn off to have sex audio. Now, great music, especially an original soundtrack, and general voices would be great, especially the music, but again, it is not feasible for one person. On that note, Runey, if you ever want original music, I'm open for it, no compensation and all rights to you, I would just ask to be credited and it would take a while as I would have to write it and record it first, of course. I would actually consider it a pretty big honor, if I'm being honest.
Both images and sound do nothing for me in that way, that's just how I am. I need an actual romantic attraction to be sexually attracted to anything and romantic attractions are reserved for real people with me. As for porn, it wouldn't matter to me, I don't use porn in the usual way, I just use it to kill time when I don't have anything better I feel like doing.
I get it, yes, it would make the game more alive, but at potentially fatal cost for the game as a whole. As a single person developer, Runey would have to devote time away from actual game development to coordinate with the voice actors, he would have to spend time implementing the voices. All this while no actual new content is getting done AND sent out to patrons and free players for potentially months while things are being recorded and gathered into one place for implementation. In a fully Patreon funded project, taking that long to get even a single update out CAN be a death sentence. I've seen people start complaining about how long an update is taking in less time than it would take to implement this, inside a normal release period even, for other games, of course. I can only imagine how bad the comments of 'it's dead,' 'it's abandoned,' or 'the dev is milking his patrons,' would get if Runey tried this. The risks are just not worth the reward.

It doesn't matter if you don't buy it, that changes nothing. No, only one ever has, someone I actually knew personally, and I lost the chance with her a long time ago. No, there isn't a voice actress that could cause it in me, if anything I would be disgusted so bad that I would throw the game in my recycling bin before even making the conscious effort to do it. No, turning them off would no longer cut it at that point, the damage would have already been done and the game would be gone, permanently. I can agree on Runey, defintely brilliant, his writing is leagues better than most games on here, especially ones focused entirely on the sex aspect. That's true of sex, having all your senses does enhance the experience, it is not necessarily true of games. This game would be in the recycling bin within seconds of the first sex sound with me, it doesn't matter where it ranks on my list, in the top two, no game is safe from deletion for having that.Bro i don't buy it.

With this detailed world building, that's pretty much max dedication. I love the work. Since in my country, credit cards aren't something that everyone can just get, the only way I was able to support this game is recommend it to my other wanker friends ahaha.Well, this is quite literally my job, haha. I get paid to do this.
Those moments were meant to be bad, in the sense that she was going overboard. If we're talking about the same thing anyway. She needed a course correction.I love this game. Kali/Lucia and Lin my favs right now. I'm falling behind on everything not level up related, it's a lot.
I wasn't fond of the android direction tbh, at the college and later. I'll be ok.
And the file sizeGenerally speaking, I am one of those, though I will watched dubbed in some situations, more now days due to the ability to watch them while I am working. That said, other than some bad translations, loss of cultural aspects like honorifics, and localizations, my main problem with it is that there are so few voice actors in the U.S. that do anime, so almost every show has the same voices, so if you are not looking, it can be hard to tell what show is on.
I played a couple games like that around here too, they were almost fully voiced (the women anyway), but it was all done by the same woman, so they all sound mostly the same (there just are not many who will do this kind of work, and they can only do so many voices).
The cast here is so large and varied, it would be really hard to even get enough moans to not sound repetitive, never mind being fully voiced. lol
Indeed, the file size would probably double if not triple. Audio files can get pretty big.And the file size
Hey there, brothers and Runey. Hopefully this feedback shall be appreciated somehow.Those moments were meant to be bad, in the sense that she was going overboard. If we're talking about the same thing anyway. She needed a course correction.
that and it would wreck the voices I use in my head for them.Indeed, the file size would probably double if not triple. Audio files can get pretty big.
I know and it was great in that sense, my reaction was actually more towards the MC not properly and timely intervening.Those moments were meant to be bad, in the sense that she was going overboard. If we're talking about the same thing anyway. She needed a course correction.
