VN Ren'Py Harem Hotel [v0.18.2] [Runey]

[Delighted12]

Can we please stop this? I could correct everything you got wrong, like that story also mentioning that elves don't remember everything when they're nearly toddlers... as Lin was when their parents died... but it's pretty clear that you just don't care. You could have spent all this time writing a real review, but you're arguing with random internet strangers about something you don't even like. Just share your opinions, don't attack people, and move on.

First of all, I'm bored. And if I have to write a review, I have to play the game and write it at the same time. I do take it seriously. (Maybe I skip a little.) And I am working right now. It only took me 30 seconds to reply. Don't worry about my work.

Second, I didn't attack anyone unless they said something to me. If ever, it was only at that review.

Lastly, I have more comments about your games in those replies now. But you starts tell me to stop. Alright. I can't even talk about the game in the game thread here. lol

Also, there's this guy. You parked on HIS corner.

Has she not hooked up with others? I know she can hook up with Moon but I can't recall any Mains off the top of my head. It's hard to remember everything I've made now haha. That stuff will definitely happen though.

As I'm remaking these older events I've noticed how bad my writing used to be, to put it bluntly. I think the way I write now makes a lot more sense and is much more engaging. It also really helps to have the foresight of future content now. The beginning of the game still needs a lot of work, and I hope everyone is loving the changes. I haven't heard many complaints about them so I think I'm doing right. Sorry, I know that isn't directly what you asked haha.

Not to my knowledge of a straight up lesbian scene when MC not present. Even for Moon I'll have to double check my game saves for what I have unlocked for gallery as Moon was with Maria not Kali though for Kali I felt it was getting further progressed on her being hooking up with at least one of the main females. Given Maria being the most open sexually kind of had that feel the most but she's been already involved with Ashley in the earlier ongoings of the game.

Oh, I try to keep the girls' sexuality in mind when creating these scenes. So Kali or Ashley typically wouldn't do that without MC being present. Some of them might be "Heteroflexible" for the purposes of this game, like Ashley doing a lot of kissing even though she's the straigthest with her breeding fetish, haha. But yes I definitely plan to add more threesomes/foursomes/orgies as the game progresses and each character gets closer to each other.

Sorry to pile on Runey.

but since you are “here” & actively engaged with us at the moment.

In the past (or in my review of HH) I mentioned a possible game “upgrade” and I don’t know the answer. So sorry in advance if you already answered this.

My question / suggestion was with regards to red room content and whether or not if it was possible to expand & improve the interactivity aspects. I can see why this would be very low on the priority list (especially since story wrap up & character developments are massively higher priority and lots and lots of work). Not to mention that a rework/expansion of red room would be a HUGE task.

Reworking the red room scene options & giving them functionality of say Pink Tea Slave Lord of the Galaxy(which is done in non ren‘py iirc)

I guess I was just curious on your thoughts (technical? (It’s impossible), bad idea(not for my game), I hesitate to suggest collaborating with PT (but perfect world & in the interest of making a “Epic Best”) and maybe PT loves you & wants to be a guest programmer)

… no pressure regarding this question I just was curious about your thoughts & if you had experienced the functionality I am referring to.

All of the dungeon content except for Felicity and Emma's need to remade, but I have also planned for 4 training options to be the minimum, so it can certainly get an upgrade in the future.

Have you seen the scenes in PT SLOG I’m talking about??
specifically the the Cat girl (Jaba role) on the Ewok planet or the various scenes of the main antagonist girl (on her home world).

If you haven’t seen it give yourself a nice break and give it a quick play through … it’s very short but fun.

It never hurts to ”steal” / pay homage / be inspired!!! … lol

QT does it ALL the time.

 

[jocoyo]

Is it just me who enjoys some of the older scenes more than the remade ones? For example I like the older Kali's BJ and Maria's cowgirl scenes more than the remakes, and I think some of the remade "cum outside" scenes don't look as good.

There are some, but mostly the new ones are better, even the ones I like less for other reasons, most I just want access to both ^, since I like the new ones as well.

hell yes!

I just want access to both

Agree !!
Both is BEST!

Man... I go off the grid for one weekend and the first thing I see is this:

I'm honestly just glad he was still wearing his drawers and the thing in his hand wasn't a dildo. Now that would warrant some hydrochloric acid splashes directly to the eyeballs.

Runey I hope these negative comments don't get to you, they're clearly a minority. Look at your Patreon, 5k+ people directly supporting what you're doing.

Yes, the writing is sometimes cringe; some game mechanics are underdeveloped. Is that a deal breaker for most? No.

The game is free, characters are great, sex scenes are hot, plot is alright (it's a lewd game, people expecting Hugo Awards nomination are the same people buying a $50 phone and complaining it's slow ‍♂).

You're doing great, the game is good. If you recontextualize for the genre and intended audience (lewd game one-handed play enjoyers) - the game is stellar and one of the best ever made.

Btw I really like your take on "sandbox", it's not grindy, there's no unnecessary gating, you can just goof around. Oh and I get a cozy feeling when I hear that overplayed Kevin MacLeod - Easy Lemon opening, I bet I'm not the only one.

Keep it up! I'm looking forward to every update!

I really don't know what to say. I know you're trying to make him feel better. But it's literally constructive criticism, and I even restrained myself when I re-wrote that review. The game has been there for 4 years, yet there are still no proper sound effects, in-game interactions, or real hotel simulator content. The same music is used in the entire game. He can literally pay people to do it for him since he has 5K+ people supporting him on Patreon. A fan-made mod has done the UI better than the game. The dev forced us to watch the events, yet it's terribly written. You even admitted that the writing is sometimes cringe. But remember, that's the most focused content in the game. It's no surprise he keeps remaking the scenes now because the story is messed up. There is even one guy who says he likes the old scenes more than the new ones from just hours ago.
And what do you mean by "it's not grindy?" In order to get to Lin's next event. I have to play Android's route until level 25 or something. Really? The characters are made from Honey Select. I am not saying that HS is bad. But there is no camera work during conversations. Learn from other HS games, please. Just because this is a free game has nothing to do with the game's content.

Am I talking to Yandere Simulator community right now? This is my last reply here.

I'm sorry you feel this way, I read your review, and read some of your posts... your "constructive criticism" is whining about the game not being the way you want it to be.

You're inserting your wants and needs above everything else, it's either the way you want it to be or it's trash. The fact you mald over it so much is worrying. Why don't you make your own game then? I'd love to see what you can do.

Re: cringe writing
Yes, there are some badly written events, but they're few and far between, I can't even tell you which ones because it wasn't a big deal. To be honest, there's some unexpectedly strong writing for this type of game that caught me by surprise.

Tl;dr you're the vocal minority, make your own game if this one doesn't work for you, your review is full of confusing arguments that negate and counter each other, plus it's also full of just plain stupid stuff - cases in point "The weak dialogue can be fixed by camera work"; "Don't play this unless you're really into simulator games (it's not even good when we're talking about simulator games)" - my dude, this isn't a simulator game, if you're playing this to learn how to manage your newly inherited hotel... you're gonna get yourself locked in prison ‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂

 

[hentiEnjoyer]

I can't help myself but to reply. One of the fans says this is a sandbox game. And you think this is not a sandbox or simulator game, yet I literally wrote that I was looking for a good story and got disappointed. Who's confusing now?

Dude, how can you be so wrong when it's written literally 3 posts above? To answer your question: You are confusing. You're arguing here because you're proven wrong time and time again, getting your feelings hurt in a public forum. I'm likely the last person to reply to you before everyone just straight up ignores all the weird stuff you try to spin. Yikes

No, I'm really sorry if I misunderstood something. And that sandbox stuff I wrote is in the first paragraph on Wikipedia.

You must be registered to see the links

It's just the basic definition of sandbox games. It has nothing to do with my take. Anyway, bye guys.

True also in terms of fetish I get the concept for footjob although during threesome/foursome or two girls together what about that aspect for foot fetish on toe sucking applied during sexual positions?

IIRC, isn't one of the very early moments of interaction her participating in you having Lin service her because she did something wrong?
