VN Ren'Py Heroes of Celtica [v0.4.0] [Slamjax Games]

[Rosen King]

it's not that simple, let me enlighten all of you

Bro, none of that has to do with what we're talking about. We're not discussing why all of the money in the world isn't flowing into the dev's pockets, we're discussing why the dev might be making more or less money than what he's done in the past, and how he might make more or less money than what he's making now. It would be one thing if you were talking about something that significantly changed in the past year or so, like a sudden economic downturn, but "people spend their money on other things" isn't new.

no one proposed a grand strategy how Dev can make use of the power vacuum left by the collapse of Ubisoft to get his foot into the AAA gaming market you loon.

i specifically mentioned that the avn market is saturated and that is no arcane secret to anyone really. We are discussing what Dev can realistically do to entice more of the niche audience to his game.

again i reiterate this point, i cant access paypal in my country, if there was universal mode of payment, a system in place that would accept transaction from all banks over the world. content creator would see more support. and there's more mma, ufc, wwe different type of sports like baseball, football, different youtubers, netflix, web series, even television to a lesser extent in modern times. social media like instagram, twitter, facebook. it is very difficult to sell and be successful in an entertainment service nowadays as there is so much competition. remember there is only 24 hours in a day, and there is only so much time that people have to invest in entertainment. and again gazillions of games in the porn game market, countless to even name. oh and real life porn is still the biggest form of entertainment consumed by people all over the world.

just to make sure before I invest in the game. are there still plans for sharing/swinging to be added to this harem game? I dont care if it is avoidable or not or bound to one class ( the class that apparently gets the most attention). I only care if it will be in the game or the plan is scrapped.

 

[Slamjax]

Like I said earlier, I have some ideas.
I think the key here, as mentioned, is to look at it from a patron point of view - what do they want to support that I want to do? What can I be making that they would look forward to every 6 weeks? As a dev, I need to stick to a firm and cohesive vision for what I'm making and not go patron-chasing, but there also needs to be a value proposition there for people that are shopping around to support their favorite games.

I would say if that's all that you're interested in, keep your money for something else. I will have optional scenes for this in the future, but that's over the horizon. You could be waiting a while. However, having said that, the druid is pursuing Saivah, who is the wife of another man, so there's already a "one woman, two man" dynamic developing, but no plans to make any MMF threesomes from this (just so you know).

i can tell you with 100% probability that Beast Within isnt interested in sharing but that he meant that he will never support a game that will feature it avoidable or not which goes for the majority of harem fans btw. Stealing another mans wife isnt a problem as long as she stops sleeping with her husband after she got with the MC for the first time.

I get it.
The thing about adult fetishes is that not everyone likes the same thing, and even those that align on 90 per cent of stuff will have 10 per cent that is wildly different. The one accommodation I make for this in Celtica is everything is avoidable. If you're a player that can't stand anything you don't like in game, even if you never have to see it, then it's better to support another game - it's all good.
In Celtic mythology, women cheat and sleep around and many have interesting sexual histories and couplings with the heroes of the tales. I'd rather not restrict my creative freedom in any way, especially if I want to be authentic to the source material.
Our ancestors were not fans of vanilla harems when they sat around the campfire telling tales of gods, heroes and monsters.

thank you for clearing that out. as Juerhullycin said, I am not into cuck fetishes in whatever shape or form they are introduced especially in a harem game.

our ancestors would actually duel to the death anyone who would look their woman the wrong way, would be willing to start a war if their spouse was taken and would put castrated men as guards of their harems so I am not sure what your sources are about them not being into vanilla harem ( which I guess you mean they let other men fuck their women which no Man ever did in the history of Men)
In any case thank you for your honesty.

I will take my leave

best of health
