Ren'Py Abandoned Heavy Five [Ch.2RS] [Nottravis]

[Nottravis]

Thanks. I mainly wanted to make Nottravis aware that this looks like a lesbian only game, at least with what is presented in the OP. Essentially, the tags are the only thing that give any suggestion of a male protagonist, not anything in the description. And if I'm given the impression that it's lesbian only, well others may think so to as they quickly peruse the OP. Plus tags get misused/overused on this forum a lot, so they aren't as reliable as they otherwise might be, and not everyone thinks to check the tags for the game when they are reading the description.

Thanks

I'm sure you're right and I suspect too much honesty on my part is the problem.

I rather stuck to the rules so tags and pictures only represent Chapter One. As to the description, ultimately the game will be both fem and male MC options.

So...you're right, but not sure what to do about it.

Once Two becomes free and I update the links then things might become clearer? So far for Chapt One, the only shot of the male MC is his arm...

It's a very nice arm tho!

I ninja edited my post as you were replying, to clarify what I was seeing. Here's the edit:

​

Edit: There is some info about 3 males in the plotline under the spoilers tag, but again, not everyone opens every spoiler tag. If anything, the info in the spoiler tags indicate that the males are going to get blueballed, probably abused (domination), but won't be getting any, or very little actual m/f vagianal sex in any case. Which, if that is indeed the case, yeah this game won't interest me. However, if the males get to bang gals... that's another story. ​

As for the 'pics must be from the beginning of the game' thing. If that's an actual rule on this forum, it's a stupid one, as developers should be able to showcase later parts of their game once those are complete as well. As to your question, at the very least a simple of mention of 'you play a male protagonist who is (whatever his starting role in the crew is), who serves alongside two other males and a bunch of females blah blah' in the opening text of your OP might help make things slightly more clear.

 

[Nottravis]

Male player, and lot choice leading to different path, a really good game,well written and fun, you should try it

*curtsies*

 

[Avaron1974]

It's a very nice arm tho!

If she does say so herself .... such modesty.

The crew is all female, the MC is just being shuttled down to a planet. The other males are part of the station on the planet, they don't serve with the MC.

*nods nods in agreement*

I think I read somewhere that the pics had to represent actual content? Certainly, I know tags are supposed to despite what some others do. Besides, I wouldn't want to mislead anyone, would seem unfair.

Render hamster allowing, I should have Three finished in a couple of weeks so Two will become free and that would be a good time to relaunch it.

I appreciate your clarification, but this page of posts will get buried soon enough, hence why think that the OP could use a bit more clarity on this subject. I was mainly just sharing my impression of the OP as I checked it out to see how the game is coming along. I have a personal rule these days about not jumping on the bandwagon early, as so many games get abandoned midstream.

At the very least, I was planning to download the game at some point and at least check out the artwork, as some of it looks quite nice. But as for playing...

As an artist/comic guy, the time I devote to actually playing games is limited, so I'm quite choosy these days. If the game is primarily lesbian focused, with very little 'normal' m/f sexual interaction, yeah that's not my cup of tea. I'm boring that way, but domination and teasing only doesn't do it for me.

Anyways, I do appreciate everyone's replies.

For the record, I don't think any of them are predators I was just responding to someone who called Chris one after 1 episode with her in which she does nothing yet that person has already jumped to conclusions about her based on zero evidence.

To be fair to him or her, s/he did say s/he had played chapter two as well.

 

[johnconnor]

Possible, but not very likely considering he's last second replacement.

Or a last-second accident.

 

[johnconnor]

Hmm - I wonder about that, though. Not good officer material carries further than just what field they're in. Sure, lots of butter-bars are scared of NCO's for the first few weeks, but any worth their rank get past that pretty quick. In fact, the ones that end up being the best officers moving forward use that time to learn from the NCOs around them. I get the sense from CH 1 that she's been wearing those bars long enough that she should be past it by now. Not saying she's hopeless, but in serious need of some confidence.

But Sarah's an Ensign. so she's not an officer, correct?

 

[Avaron1974]

What if the "accident" was planned to get the MC on that flight....

 

[johnconnor]

My second theory is...Sarah!

During the launch, in what I would describe as a filler scene, Chris asks Sarah who just entered the bridge/cockpit: "At last, what"s the SLF like?"

And her answer is...

She supposes... Sarah, who has a record of damaging a shuttle by confusing left and right, supposes it's alright...

Pretty sure this changes if you have an Ensign for breakfast.

 

[johnconnor]

This is certainly interesting, as far as I remember no one mentioned it. It could explain both the Vanguard's and the station's system failures with some kind of interference.

If that's about Sarah she's an Ensign and she's very close to getting booted. Says in her file so no spoiler needed, it's easy enough to see.

Think one more screw up and she's gone with the wind.

Seems she's a bit bad at her job ... and clumsy ... a bit ditzy ... but is awesome with innuendo so all is forgiven.

 

[Me666]

From the infinite machinations of Chris to conspiratorial 'the clues are hidden in plain sight, you just can't see them yet!', this thread continues to be quite the silly romp. I'm pretty sure there are actual religions that have been started over less material...

Wait... this isn't an official religion?

 

[johnconnor]

I'll stick with the Holy Order of Annie.

I'll be right back, just going to cast myself down between the thighs of justice and drink from her holy grail so my soul may know peace.
