VN Ren'Py Having a HARD Time [v0.3.0] [Quadruple-Q]

[Rexermus]

Lesbians love and show support to guy friends without being interested in men. I think the Ryu thing was just about showing support to a friend so he doesn't feel like he has to carry whatever weight on his shoulders alone.

Yeah I didn't read any of the stuff with Ryu as more than purely platonic support. It's been made clear that Jane is lesbian, not bi, pan or polysexual and that isn't likely to change

there is the additional possibility that the MC could also fuck Marianne's BF (Peter?) and/ or other male LI's.

I have no godamn clue how you even considered coming to the conclusion.

Not going to happen.

 

[BroProHelpas]

I missed the last few days of what ended up being a serious discussion about the identity and motivations of the characters, particularly that of Marianne (best friend, LI). I do agree that some aspects of the plot and overall storytelling are... um, questionable so far but I am of the mind to give the author/ dev some time to continue working before offering criticism or judgement. In other words, let them cook.


Therefore, rather than debate comments already made (though I do want to object to labeling her as 'whorish'), I would like to add three things to the discussion.

1. Marianne and the MC were supposed to have the "talk" - where they address the first kiss and reveal their true feelings etc. What they did talk about (the incident) was barely scratching the surface of what happened and it didn't do much to address the emotional repercussions for them both. Which is okay, of course. You don't go to one therapy session then suddenly declare yourself cured.

Anyway, that "talk" then got put off until after the party and then again the next morning after the sex. So the author/ dev kicked the can down the line and we have to wait for the next update before we get a deeper exploration of Marianne's feelings - not just her desire for more of that dick. Ultimately, we know a bit about the character but it is also fair to say that there is more to come. As with most stories, a character's depth and emotional development takes place over time. It is a bit reductivist to talk like we know all about a character & her motivations when her story is, quite literally, still being written.

2. We learned that your choices regarding Marianne and her current BF can lead to a sharing path where Marianne continues to see the BF and the MC. How that plays out is still unknown but what it does tell us is that how we define the personality and character traits of Marianne is somewhat up to the player as well.

Sometimes we forget that we control more than just the MC in some of these stories in ways that are not just divided between the traditional AVN corruption and love paths.

3. It seems to me that Ryu is possibly being set up as a potential LI. I may be misremembering this but I want to say that an interaction or two offered initial corruption points or something like that. You are all free to correct me if I am wrong... just saying that's what I sorta remember. At some point I will go back and replay the current episodes to confirm.

If I am right about that assumption, the MC might not stay full lesbian. If that is the case, and if a sharing path is open, there is the additional possibility that the MC could also fuck Marianne's BF (Peter?) and/ or other male LI's.

--
So, of the three points above, I only mention the second & third to help underscore the first. And that can be summarized by simply saying: Let's wait for the author/ dev to finish telling the story. We might feel quite a bit differently about each of the characters (including their motivations and choices) - and the story as a whole - once it has ended.

dev said in discord that there won't be any futa-on-male content

Yes indeed. Made sure of that before I bought this on Steam.

 

[Cherubin25]

I mean, it just makes sense, and we had this discussion here already - the MC is a Lesbian. She is only into girls. Having a cock does not change that.

 

[Knight_of_the_lance]

unless they recreate what turned the MC into one I doubt it

If they manage to recreate this compound, my intuition tells me that the effect would not necessarily be the same for everyone. I get that feeling from the fact that everyone's struggles is different. And to some extent, in a twisted way you can say that Jane getting a cock has to do with her being a lesbian wanting to fuck other girls. I know it is kind of a stretch and it answer her desires in an unnecessary way. But to me it is some kind of "help" for that desire with out being one.

dev said in discord that there won't be any futa-on-male content

Totally fine by me and works for my personal preferences anyway. Like I said, it was a suspicion and I happy to say that my instincts on that matter were wrong.

I mean, it just makes sense, and we had this discussion here already - the MC is a Lesbian. She is only into girls. Having a cock does not change that.

It might have been interesting if the dev had explored the idea of the MC's preferences evolving due to the biological & hormonal changes they were going through as a result of suddenly having a dick, etc. In other words, having a cock COULD possibly change that. I have read that there might be some connections there but it's not my field of expertise and I'm out of my depth.

If anyone is interested, I found this article that can help you go down that particular rabbit hole:

Again, not going to lie, I am perfectly happy that the dev isn't going down that road and will keep the MC exclusively interested in women.

As experience shows, the difference between the Steam and free versions is that Steam has restrictions, taboos on showing something. As a result, the games there are less liberated than here.

You got that in reverse actually. As this game is on Patreon, they are much more restrictive toward their content than Steam. Steam just wants everyone to be over 18. They don't really care about anything else.

so there isnt really a point to getting the steam version?

I think Bloodguard meant the contrary.

 

[DanteRed]

Actually there are 2 differences between the Steam and Patreon versions. The Steam release does NOT have a lewd scene, since that character resembles a different game character too much. The other difference is when Jane is studying at home, at one point she can watch porn. In the Patreon release there are some real life images of 2 female porn stars going at it. The steam release does not have those renders. Other than that, the game is the same.

which scene are you referring to?

 

[phillibuster]

How do you get Himiko to jerk you off in her room? I managed it the first time but I've been replaying to try different activities and can't seem to get it to trigger anymore... I showed her the wiener in the bathroom and defended her against the bitch trio. So what am I missing?

There is a message that you have to reply, iirc. Maybe somewhere around after peeking Ms Turner or before the scene of Hannah being wasted.
