VN Ren'Py Jury [Ep.3 P1] [Nickle3DArt]

[Raziel_8]

Depends on what you mean by consequences. If you are referring to whether a girl will feel betrayed and thereby close off her route because you banged another, then no, I don't think the game is wired this way so far.

The consequences are along the lines of time constrains. For e.g. in the hotel you can only visit two spots in a day and each different spot will result in you meeting 1 - 2 particular LIs. What this means is in a single play through almost by definition you will miss some other LIs.

Because there are so many LIs on different paths, if one chooses to focus on only one girl, there is going to be pretty limited content in each update. One will need to save and load often to see which option leads to which girl and in the event your chosen girl is unavailable in any of the options, then it will be plenty of text skipping and rejection choices.

There are already small consequences, losing relationship points, dialogue which makes it clear that they are not happy etc, like with Katie or Beth. Others don't seem to care at all (at least yet) like Lily, Aimee, Jane and Jenny.
Some seem kinda open for a throuple, like Mia and Layla (althought they seem more into each other)...

But yeah, i think there will be consequences in the future, it's not a harem game.

If you do the pool scene, don't massage Jenny in the sauna so she leaves early. For Katie it's a little trickier because her sex scene will initiate if you have 2 or more points with her, so you would have had to go out of your way to not get any points with her in previous interactions. If you don't have the 2 points, he will get dressed and leave.

Not sure how much you'll get out of solo routes in this because I've never tried it that way. Sometimes your LI just isn't available and you'll rack up points with someone else, or I guess you could intentionally be a dick to everyone else.

I've done solo paths for all the girls I like. And managed to avoid every other girl on those paths. It does involve a lot of skipping though after I've played once. Including a Brooke path that is pretty uneventful.

I haven't played update yet, so I don't know if that all still works.

I wasn't planning on a deep dive into this because I think it's overhyped but since that other person asked about a scene pretty early into the game, I just fired it up and looked for the conditions to trigger it. If there's more scenes that just have points as conditions, that would get annoying fast imo. Compared to someone like Leia who requires a very specific style of playthrough as her scenes are based on getting the previous scene.

I was trying to remember the conditions for certain girls to help the poster, but it's been far too long since I played (especially since Lily was one of the paths I played). I do remember it being possible for monogamy runs (well for all the ones I played anyway) and I don't recall it being too difficult, but it did involve going back a few times to change decisions I'd made.

Sounds like a lot of work. Some, like Jane, are pretty easy but require you to know where they are, which isn't going to happen on a first playthrough unless you're modded/using Mav's flowcharts. It's also incredibly easy to miss Jane's initial scene.

I still can't recommended monogamy on a first playthrough, there's too much going on. Better to bounce around and learn where people are and then go back on other playthroughs and work out paths you like. That said, the poster this all stemmed from didn't seem too interested.

Yeah me too, which i think is for 5 girls (Beth, Lily, Ivy, Alice and the new girl Marie-Anne) out of idk 17-18...
Some girls are hard to start the route/finding the right place, like with the cop.

Well there is a tiny scene with Brooke, still uneventful, but hey you can get your first relpoint with Brooke

Ok, thanks for answer. I didn't anything romantic with Katie, just common courtesy, like defend her when attacked etc.
So, this is one of those games - be jerk towards all or bang 'em all... shame... will see how it goes, if it's too hard to navigate and avoid then won't bother with this game.

It depends on the girl (some girls just have previous scenes as a pre-req) but yeah, you don't seem super invested so I wouldn't bother getting too attached given how long development takes.

Well, I did not seriously "dived" into story, yet... just tried a little mostly fast skipping so far... I suffered from those mistakes in the past... I start read everything, get hooked into story and it gets ruined by some forced sex scene... then I need to trash bin game I liked... so, better to know everything before I start to play seriously.
Will see this now... if story is good and worth playing, then I'll just save-edit relationship to 0 if I encounter something like that Katie scene in the future... it's easier then to track all choices and count points.

Is there a compressed version for EP3 ? Can only find EP2 and 14GB is a lot for a game still in progress

i can't find one either - can someone please post one?
thanks a lot in advance!

On the one hand, this game is fresh, bold and full of not just sexiness(blatant nude and erotic scenes), but actual eroticism, ie the characters progress naturally at their own pace, some fucking early, others making you work for it.* And there's real heart, I found myself caring about a few of these girls, and liking Jacob.**

But I think ultimately this game will be a failure. It's a simple matter of logistics. There are over FIFTEEN main love interests, all with their own development and unlockable scenes. There's a real branching narrative that is pretty unforgiving to be honest. Realistically, the amount of work this game will present will spiral far beyond any content creator's ability to produce resulting in burn out OR a massive drop in quality OR somehow paring down the LIs (pushing less popular girls to 'side girl' status and cutting or drastically reducing their screen time).

Assuming I'm wrong (happens all the time), I do hope the devs clear up the confusing mess of the decision tree. There's good ambiguity and then there's BAD ambiguity, and Jury is the latter. For instance, I think it's great that decisions compound and affect opportunities. It makes sense if I go to dinner with Alice, I can't meet up with Aimee, and maybe that dinner will affect what scene I get later on. And so I make that choice without FULLY knowing the consequence. However, when that choice also has a secret option to see another character (lets just say Ivy for example), and without choosing the correct one I'm off her path forever, that's bad confusion. A walkthrough mod obviously solves this, but I think it goes against the spirit of what the Devs are trying to achieve. It's an issue that I think is worth resolving, since right now, unlocking all the paths feels more like a chore, than a reward.


* The Devs clearly know how to do a slow burn and the game is all the better for it.
** AVNs as a whole and without exception are made better when there are male characters in them. Honestly, the male/female ratio is already so absurd in Jury that it suspends disbelief.

 

[Jacowboy]

breh, the story is so incredibly stupid that you need to suspend your disbelief in the first 5 minutes and all the way through... you play this for the fun interactions and the characters and the different branches, not because it's believable...

 

[Jacowboy]

ay the game needs a patch to fix a few coding issues and path/narrative inconsistencies =/

Forget missing out on other LIs, this game is so complicated and convoluted I am missing scenes with girls even when I'm on their specific route.

Seriously, there's 'good' complicated media, and then there's Rube Goldbergian complicated.

Dev…. Well done my friend. This has become my favorite. So many possibilities, beautiful girls, unique story line, and animations that are well done. Thank you for the hard work and creativity. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The save screen in this game acts weird, in the sense that the arrows skip to the next N pages, rather than next/previous page, which may be the reason you're unable to find your saves.

Have to know her secret when first meeting her. Rollback a few renders, use URM to alter the flag to get the basement scene and others going forward.
