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

This game is very good, very real, the plot is reasonable, and the game is easy to play.

Disadvantage: Update speed is a little slow.

Suggestion: If the developer can control the speed of the heroine's corruption. It will be a great game.

The game has an intriguing plot of investigation. An actual, bona fide plot, weaved through all the erotic encounters with seemingly natural ease.
The detailed structure of the walkthrough shows there's a lot of thought behind the plot, which is admirable. The sheer amount of content in terms of renders and written words makes this 0.2 release feel huge, much larger than some 1.0s I've seen. The use of English language is completely natural.
The quality of renders is stunning: lighting, poses, assets, all top notch.
I have not encountered any bugs and have been completely absorbed by the story. Objectively I can't find fault with this game, and if it ticks your favorite theme boxes it's is nothing short of fantastic! I really look forward to seeing more

WOW! I love the game so far.
Overview:
The game about a 25 years old woman, Jessica O’Neil, trying to make a career as an investigative journalist at a newspaper. After working for a local TV channel for a couple of years, she wants to dive into the deep waters and make an impact with her work. How far is she willing to go and what methods is she going to use is up to you, the player.

I realy like this game. A good Story, with nice graphics and a good looking female MC. And I like ist, that you can choose, if you are making her her a slut or not. And I like it, that she will not be corrupted or blackmailed. I guess she is a little nymphomanic. And that is what makes this game interessting.

Best graphics quality I have ever seen so far in VN games also a unique story and very entertaining game play and no grinding.... Im sold! Keep up the good work!

The protagonist is hot the background renders are awesome just amazing overall work.

this game stands out for it's brilliant graphics. often i stop to check the details in the scenery. they are all realistic and lively, like straight from an AAA game. the story is nice and engaging. the dev seems to know his way around journalism, politics, bureaucracy etc, so it doesn't feel artificial or forced. the writing is decent. not many grammar or spelling mistakes i have come across. the sounds during sex scenes is fairly well done. what bugs me about this game and why i don't rate it higher is jessica herself. she sure is pretty, top model material, but not at all sexy or cute (whereas rosa is very sexy and the barista girl, blake very cute). she has an empty look in her eyes and she doesn't appear to have a clear-cut, relatable character. as such she didn't appeal to me and i can't find her attractive. too bad, considering the production value in this game, which is very high for it's genre. oh, and there's zero humor in the game.

"There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain..."

I really enjoyed the overarching plot and twists in this game, as it encompasses all the classic elements of a good story. Although the standalone routes weren’t by any means remarkable, they were great at building suspense and a sense of urgency to figure out the pieces of the puzzle in order to solve the mystery. The universe of this games grows increasingly more complex and interesting the further you delve into the storyline. This demonstrates solid world-building and good storyline pacing by the writers.

I am a person who doesn't understand English, but I still have a good time playing this game. I can even guess what story it is telling. Isn't this amazing? It also shows that the logic of this game is very simple and it is easy to attract new players.

Shockingly good. The attention to detail on the renders is just exquisite. The street scenes just fell alive rather than barren and empty like a lot of games. It was refreshing to have a female protagonist and the story has some legs. I am looking forward to next update!

Very sexy and enticing game so far and if it keeps up it can turn out to be one of the best. I like the MC, the supporting cast is mostly nice as well, art style look very good and in most cases original. Certainly worth trying out.

(For Version 0.10) This game is exactly what "A Wife And Mother" should be. Great sex scenes with good quality NTR (always hate those NTR games where the Husband is made a victim). She still loves her boyfriend while doing all the naughty teasing. Love this game and will soon start supporting it on patreon.

Pros:
1) Great renders
2) Great story
3) Really creates the sexual tension
4) Good looking characters and environment
5) If you like NTR but hate the fact that in most NTR games the Husband/Boyfriend is turned into a sissy character then this is the game for you.

Cons:
"Absolutely nothing for now"

A sincere request to the developer, please don't add anything tragic to the storyline. It completely ruins the game. Thank you a ton and eagerly waiting for the next update

One of the few games that actually has all the fields balanced. The story is absolutely interesting and the renders are pretty much beautiful. There is nothing more that I can ask for from a game. Beautiful.

Decided to finally play this today.
Renders are really well done, nice use of POV view, smooth animations and looks like we have some interesting journalist/vigilante story going with choices and you can go the path you want and not being forced to do something you dont want so far(hope that won't change).
Also i like that for Female Protagonist game, MC actually isnt nerfed to dumb and dumber.

excellent game, its renders are beautiful, the written character of the story is exposed. I hope that game maintains the quality. I wish much success for this developer. good luck good good very good..

[Ver. 0.10 Review] 3/5 Rating December 5, 2018


Cons:

-Release date takes too long only for us to get more teasing with other men.
Not as bad as A Wife and a Mother though. It's hot, but not worth the wait.
I will be deducting 2 Points in my review until Jessica actually starts 'doing
stuff' with other men.

[Ver. 0.05 Review] 5/5Rating October 11, 2018

Great game so far! It has interesting characters and I'm looking forward for future updates!

Pros:

-Interesting Story & Characters
-Great Animations
-No Good or Bad points that will lock you out of certain scenarios
-No forced choices
-Believable Dialogue
-A Female Protagonist (hopefully she will be able to cheat on her BF without
him dying or leaving (looking at you GGGB))



Cons:

-Need more sex scenes with other men other than her BF (to be fair though,
the game is still in it's early stage)

One of my favorite new games. Character models are outstanding. Especially Jessica. This dev has my full support. Cannot wait to see were i can take her from here on out! I just hope that the dev can keep pumping content out in a timely manner!

Really impressively beautiful and well-writed game.
Jessica has an interesting personnality and she is a gorgeous woman who will fool all the man she wants
Can't wait to see her being banged by an old guy or taking a thick bbc, it will be one of the best scenes I have ever played in these kind of game !

The game is at a 0,05 state currently (first update), however it's looking really promising so far.

The writing is really good, it seems that the dev knows exactly where he's going with the story, furthermore there are already a few organic sex scenes. The game so far is flowing really well.

The renders are stunning and the main characters are all relatively unique.

Where most VN's fall apart, in my humble opinion, is the choices you make in-game.
From my experience in VN's like this one ,and others similar to it, the choice system generally boils down to either;

- Choices you make have almost no impact to the world around you, usually you just miss a minimal scene.

- Choices just end up being point-gathering simulators, where there's a Right/Wrong type system aimed towards raising character stats.

- Choices become a guessing game either because things got lost in translations, as many devs don't speak English as their first language, or simply unpredictable characters that haven't been given enough context.

In this game, however, even in it's early 0,05 stage, it is made very obvious where your choices will lead you and how they might develop your character and the world around you in future updates. The dev has touched on this in the game thread on the forum. The dev seems very open to constructive criticism and responsive to genuine inquiries about the general direction of the game, which is why even in it's early stage, I have faith in this game.

TL;DR
- Story flows excellently, art is amazing, dev & writer seem to know exactly where they're going with the game and how to properly implement in-game choices.

This is a seriously awesome game.
The writing is good. No bugs and the women are just gorgeous.

Normally I'm not into female protagonists, normally I don't like to play the one being corrupted, but for once this is made so sexy here and secondly there are several lesbian options that I hope we get to explore further.

I'm glad I took the risk after looking at the pictures and will look forward to further updates.

EDITED 04/10/2020

Pros: Great renders, hot girls, excellent story so far, good dialogue, interesting characters, a number of very hot sex scenes already

Cons: Waiting for a new update...

Verdict: 1/5. Could be a top-tier game easily, if only the Dev had any intentions of making it so. Waiting 3-4 months for an update consisting of one scene makes this one of the most blatant patreon milking projects ever.
