VN Ren'Py Intertwined [v0.14.1] [Nyx]

[Pr0GamerJohnny]

Had no idea Maya was disliked... poor thing, what did she do wrong?

as one of the minority defenders - to quickly further derail this OTHER games thread heh, you see it a lot over there, mostly from two cabals: 1) The Quinn Acolytes 2) The Josy mah waifu army.

The former are edgelords and Maya is too vanilla and boring for them (which ironically is why I cant stand Quinn, she's written like a creative writing major's freshman project).

The latter see Maya as an obstacle to a permanent pairing with their smooth-skinned-spinner, Maya having excessive emotional baggage and an ugly texture normal map. (How egregious!)

I love Maya, she's interesting, has backstory and drama, and actual tension; especially during her sex scenes.



I wish there was a similar character over here, Cara had potential for this, but I kinda lost interest after she turned into this game's "Josy".
I guess Erynn is the best hope for emotional baggage and high-drama writing.

On the other hand, BaD is sorely lacking a "Layla" style character - aka the one you want as your girlfriend - cute, fun, but some personality beyond just disposable harem-fare. Appearance-wise too, there's no analog - probably my biggest complaint with BaD and praise for InterT - majority of characters appearance there aren't "attractive in a natural way" - it's super heavy stage makeup, half the cast look like vegas strippers.

Thanks for the answer, the Badik thread is too much for me and i was unaware.

And i agree, Maya is a romantic girl trying to figure out who she is, there's some baggage that comes with this of course, but she's a nice loving girl.
Her texture is heavy on pores on extreme close ups , but then more up to date(technologically speaking) characters often have skin that's too shinny(Josy is here no doubt).

Steering back to Intertwined.
Erynn no doubt is the one that gets more storyline and depth beyond "being super in love with this guy", but then we have to wait until Nyx feels like allowing the relationship to progress .
Elena has some depth too in that her loyalties and her desires are in conflict.

Cara was made interchangeable with her sister so her problems and scenes are very similar in spirit hers, you are just choosing the flavor of your topping, between the outgoing girl who likes sports and working out and the more quiet one.
Layla, agreed, she's great... and badly underutilized lately, hopefully that will change in the coming update.

just started the game and I'm assuming there is no music because the developer only added music into later episodes?

 

[Canto Forte]

No distractions ... of any kinds ...
You go straight into that hottie and explode deep inside her!

We don't get the opportunity to call her a snake in game so we do it here .

 

[Dracconic Evolution]

Looks like a snake, slithers like a snake, corrupts like a snake? Call it like I see it, got to be a snake.

sheesh, these erynn fans are getting out of control this week

Here's an improved version :


It's on me, my pleasure.

Do not mistake my agreement with the consensus.

Lets be real though, it'll cycle between those two, and never touch the snoozefest of a character that is Val.

agreed
arguably the prettiest model but no character whatsoever

I'll say this Alexis at least elicits emotions out of me, not positive ones, but she does elicit emotions out of me... Or at least she did before, now she's just a sex delivery machine.

Val on the other hand is just there...
While i don't have the answer to the question wether she's Nyx self insert or not... she does "smell" like an author surrogate.

Exactly, I'm glad people are able to differentiate instead of the halo affect, yup she's hot, would I mind sex scenes with her? Ofc not! Do I want to have hours of dialogue with her? Ofc not!

I don't think it matters one way or another whether Val is a "self-insert" or not. It's all the same in the end. I think that more often than not when a dev labels something as a "self-insert", it's more how they'd like to imagine themselves rather than how they actually are. More like a wish fulfillment or a weird kind of role playing. So really it's a fictional construct one way or another just like any other character in the story.

I think she's a good character. I enjoy the flirting with the MC. My top three favorite girls are Val, Layla, and Mel's booty because they all have such good chemistry with the MC.

fuck I really hope there will be a real Mel route... one can dream

I don't even want sex scenes with her. it might as well say "nyx" whenever she appears
also, there's a certain josy in another game, using the same model as val. and I like josy more.

fuck I really hope there will be a real Mel route...

there was always a mel route in my head

one can dream

I see what you did there

Snakes and backstabbers deserves no love

everyone deserves love, the right karma is that it might come with whips, slaps a dildo or even a strap-on....
preferably for those who do not enjoy it! but it is what it is!
