VN Ren'Py Jessica O'Neil's Hard News [v0.65] [stoperArt]

[Locamenteloco]

He had to get DecentMonkey as inspiration, undoubtedly one of the best developers of this site, quick updates and tons of public and private spoilers, and all this with an incredible quality

 

[BeardedJack]

I still have high hopes for this game but to me this update was again disappointing.
I can understand that details are important in a story, but like 3/4 of this update felt like filler material, just stuff that is not important for the story and its there maybe to make the game feel more "immersive"? I like some details in a vn but this is too much,all this wait to see 1 uneventful day.

goobdoob , a friend on Discord shows me pictures from some of the other games circling around, and it's usually very entertaining. I'm often amazed how people can make DAZ renders and characters look so bad.

Here are some pics from Daddy's Goodnight Kiss 1 and Goodnight Kiss 2.

People called his girls "orcs".

I spent some time trying to fix his HORRIBLE code. I'm convinced looking at it made me stupider.

Spoiler: orcs ahead

Nearly one year after Version 0.1 came out we have version 0.2...

No matter how good the CGs are (they are drop dead gorgeous), the pace of the development is ridiculous.

 

[darlic]

I'm really sorry but this update was super underwhelming, it was a skip fest. Still, I hope things will get more interesting in the future...

v0.20, not v0.2. It's not the 2nd update.

Yes absolutely and except sex scenes with husband (which is not main theme here) there is only teasing.

 

[torkenstiem]

I don't understand why people are so upset about this update. The story is progressing and there is sex/sexual content involved(At least in my play though). It might not have been what I hoped for, but not every update will be, since the game IS story oriented. I'm just glad Stoper doesn't drag things out to the point that it becomes boring , but still provides some interesting situations, building up to the next update.

 

[Olivia_V]

Actually, having played it again, my only real gripe is that, if the game is to have animations, a big moment like Jessica really going all in on her first full cheating experience could have used them. I'm slightly disappointed that the big lesbian moment didn't have them, mostly because what I felt were moments lesser to this had them.

Other than that, it is quite a good update, for reasons I already stated.

 

[KyoriKusagami]

Sincerely, I liked this update. The story is good and well written, the pace is good too, I like to read the thoughts from Jessica, because it shows she's not a slut that open her legs to the every man talks two words to her and the corruption happens, but in slow pace because she loves her boyfriend and it depends of your choices, of course.
The complaints about this update, it's because some players wants to see Jessica cheating her boyfriend with other man with no reason.
The time will come, but it's not now, so guys, you all wait until there and the crying results in nothing.

you can't take any of this to seriously. people want more. and when they really like something they look forward to it and by "it" i mean a good fap in every update and a story that suites their "needs". and who can blame them. when i watch this art and all the crossroads and possibilities wishful thinking is unavoidable.

 

[armion82]

OK,how this is 2,3,5 etc min update?
Probably Ctrl have something to dr like the alpha not in relationship with Heather.

It seems most complains besides time between updates can be spread in 2.
-Too much sex(???!!!) with Conner/probably that is the reason/ and Heather/or that?/.Yeah We saw that in DMD-people complaining about too much sex with Elena and D.
-With many branches there will be moments when your route won't have content or very minimal one.We saw that in Babysitter,Melody,Glamour and AWAM,now in JOHN and pretty sure soon in DMD.Every non-linear VN and every sandbox have that problem.There is no simple solution and I doubt there can be found one.

BTW I am still waiting for that excuse about both Saturday and Sunday in 0.20

 

[Mwanted]

I hope the cheating isn't still limited to Mr Parker only, I didn't like that path too much

 

[Mormont]

Needless to say, that is an impressive gene pool of women Jessica and her Mother have that real nice tall slender frame and Laura is such a cutie. The guy at the bar scene though I took such pleasure at shooting him down. Good update this is a slow burner but it's going to be worth it.

Most of the people complaining about AWAM or since the last two updates JOHN and LotV is not the content itself, it's the needed time to create the amount of content. If this would be the regular monthly output 90% would be more than fine with it. On the other hand, the creation of such high quality images takes it's time.
But, it's still an adult game and adult games, like pornos, are not admired or watched for the fantastic lighting, scene set up etc.. They are watched for hot girls doing lewd things (of course with some good timed build up!). So I think a regular, good amount of content is more important for most people than absolutely stunning renders, because you don't look at them too long ...
On the other hand, the _paying_ patreons are fine with it, looking at the numbers, so pirates opinions about this whole time/content stuff is quite fuckin uninteressting for the devs which I completely understand.

If I was the DEV, I would have done different.
I would skip the entire scene in the public bathroom, hell, I would have skipped any lesbian scenes at all.
The entire "family" feelings at home, getting to know the characters, the hugging, making food etc, maybe 10% of what stoper did.
But Im not the DEV, and of course the game I would make is something completely different.
What we have is the craftsmanship of stoperArt, both the good and the bad. and the bad is just the attention of details and to not skip anything in his vision of the game.
We can complain about that, but in the end we want to play this game, even if frustrating, even if we can't play the route we want to play, its better than not to have it at all.
Details and quality takes time and that is the "bad". But we could say its also the "good".

Even so Im a bit skeptical why we needed to see the bathroom scene at all, since its a male character and a female character I actually don't care about. my suggestion. all "non-Jessica" better to skip animations and have a minimum-cg, and let it be a bonus content that can be added when the game is finished, if people want that, so a poll, and if enough patrons want that, you can spend x updates adding all the extras.

BTW I remember same thing with early updates of DMD and SS/both games started way back in september 2016/.It takes both games something like 12-13 updates to get less complains like Why the game is so slow,when we can fuck A/B/C,I don't want to go to cinema/restaurant/bathroom etc.Now complains are Why we have so much sexWhy we don't get more A,but instead we have B in this update.

I was thinking of making an animation for the scene, but I didn't find a good pose to make one that looks interesting. For the most part it's just mouth play, there are no toys involved or something. Not much body movement, so to speak. I still have to add one small scene at the end of the day, so I may insert an animation to the scene with Heather as well.

not for me since JOHN i cant play crapgames like elenas life anymore because of the bad art no matter how much content there is.
I liked the update btw and i was happy about the co -worker scene as an alternative to the lesbian scene

In my comment I definitely don't meant renders like from Elena's Life which are way below a certain standard. Also story wise it's bad. So you took another extreme to argument against my posting which didn't meant low quality render/story. There are examples where the output of renders and story telling is an argument, look at my signature with Project Sage Act1. Or take DmD, Melody. Every month a high quality output in both story and renders.
