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

[DonTirri]

Okay, quick review of what I think of the storylines thus far:
1: Kali. Love her, and her story. Looking forward to where it goes. The whole "shy nerd girl" just does it for me I guess.
2: Ashley. Jesus fucking christ. Can we just get an option to tell the clingy psycho to piss off? Not a fan. Not at all. Don't remove her, just give the option of telling her to piss off.
3: Lin. I like it. The "mistreated slave finally treated right" story is a good one when done well, and it is here. Though I'd really love to have Jin in the hotel for good to provide a counterbalance for Lin's naivete and innocence.
4: Android. Started out a bit off the left field, but I like it. Though the mask-thing REALLY bothers me. Why is it such a big deal? :E Well, lookin forward for more.
5: Maria. The exhibitionist/carefree regarding sex type isnt my thing, but its done surprisingly decently.

All in all, outside of Ashleys batshit crazy bullshit, the stories develop quite well and naturally. A big question I have though... Please tell me we get to do Ellen at some point? After a good storyline of course.

When i press on "Lets have some fun", i only have a "back".. So no options. Am i missing some steps before?

Edit:
Nevermind - i started a complete new game and now i have the options!

Thanks for the review.

Not everybody is going to like every character, and I expect that. I don't expect everybody to go through all of their storylines either. I want the player to be able to ignore any character they want if possible. In some cases Ashley's stats must be raised to advance another character's story, I don't like doing it, but it wouldn't make sense if you took Ashley's virginity at the beach with Maria.

Ashley wont have the option to be toned down. That's her character and it wont be changed. Feel free to max her stats out in the console just in case she's holding you back from some other characters story. (She's mainly only required to have higher stats with Maria. She's not really tied to any other character.)

The Android wears the mask for a reason, a really good reason.

Spoiler: And she explains it in her story

I'm not sure what I'll be doing with Ellen, sexual stuff will happen but I'm not sure about story.

That happens when you haven't unlocked sexual options through a character's story.

Any input codes? Do I have to pay money and be a patron to get these input codes?

Some codes are patron only codes, but people have looked through the game's code and posted them here. It doesn't bother me, you can pay for them or not, it's not a big deal.

I didn't mean to come of as pushy regarding Ashley (I coulda worded better, I know) but in general I feel that her story goes a bit too fast. She comes in, boom she's sucking your dick, boom you fuck her, BOOM she goes psycho girlfriend on you. Then the school stuff is out of left field, and very unrealistic (Well okay, its a porn game but still).
What I mean, you can make her story less obnoxious and grating without changing your vision of the character just by slowing it down a bit (like Kali, hers was pretty well paced all things considered).
But I know there are people who like her so I guess its ultimately down to a matter of taste.
Doesn't change the fact that you're doing a good job with the game thus far!

Which are the best choices about Maria's question in her date?

Maybe you could focus on her dominant side, you've already schown or maybe you could add her as a companion like woman, that helps you to train your maids?

I agree, I should have slowed the story down a bit, I wasn't sure if having more story would be bad or good. I think if I added a bit more it would have been better. That being said, Ashley is still the clingy overly attached crazy girlfriend, right from the beginning when she met you she already thought you were cute.

Ellen is a motherly type, strict too. I don't want to say too much.

how to skip the old content?

You can use the code "skiptoend1" (without the quotes) but it's HIGHLY recommended you play through from the beginning. There's new story, remade scenes, and all kinds of stuff. You won't regret playing through it again.

Open console commands (Shift+O) and type in truestory = true, this should make Ashley's classmates to sister instead of clones.

I must be doing something wrong. It just keeps saying a bunch of gobblybook ending with "NameError: name 'true' is not defined"

The correct syntax is truestory = True (Capital T)

Sorry, these have undoubtedly been asked before but lack of thread search really makes this site a pain.
1) How do I progress Lin's story? I think the last story scene for Lin I saw was her mentioning wanting to find her sister and that she'll ask Ellen for help. Her stats are 12 love & 23 obedience and all other character story's have been completed (seen the wait for next version text). Also it's day 47 if that matters.
2) Do gifts even do anything yet?

At friendship(love) 12 and 8+ obedience, you can take her virginity in her room. But you'll need to buy the rope outfit.

When a girl's affection or obedience is below 0, they'll stop talking to you. You'll have to buy a gift to talk to them.

Click in the search field in the upper right of the page. Options will pop down. One of them is "search this thread only". Not that hard.

 

[cager]

Excellent game, I especially like the variety of shapes and sizes - all gigantic boobs is a real turn off for me

Ah, I didn't notice that it had added new choices to the "Wear This" section. Thanks.
Minor script issue though; I'd completed all of Lin's cafe scenes so I'd technically already taken her virginity before this. Same with the beach scene, I'd seen the group beach scene before Lin's "first time" at the beach.

Thank you. I'd only checked 'Thread Tools' as most sites put it there.

Hey, I don't bother if it's anonymously or not ... maybe someone could add even more thoughts to the list, if he reads this?
I'll just put it into a spoiler ^^

In v0.2.1 I fixed the issue with being able to have sex with Lin at the cafe before taking her virginity.
