First off, I don't think this failed. It's troubled though.
I also don't agree that is the problem with this game. Would the game be better with just one protagonist? Maybe but it works with two. Combat on the other had sucks all the enjoyment out of the game. Can't enjoy the writing when you get stuck in combat and can't get past it to the next story point. Last time I played you basically had to cheat. I just gave up at the same point two times over the years because of combat. Maybe it's been fixed, I haven't tried it in a long time.
plenty of games make bank with terrible gameplay, and stupid, and i mean stupid amounts of grind.

I ask the developer two years ago and ask if making one protagonist would be better but the response he gave me was that he did considered it but wanted too do two protagonist.

One of the most underappreciated games unfortunately. Must suck for this guy that puts so much effort not even reaching 100 bucks but others like simbro that stopped still make more.

There is a difference between grindy games, and games where combat is over tuned.

In grindy games you farm lower level mobs get stronger to beat the higher level mobs. That isn't this game. You can't farm because of a lack of healing resources. The grinding model is a functional model that works. Note I did not say it's good, it's a weak crutch but it works. People get tired of the grind eventually, but it's fun until your personal limit on grind is reached.

This game has it's combat overtuned. Mobs that you should be able to defeat are nearly unbeatable. You need luck to get past them, and that is never fun to play. The combat itself is broken.

Well if you are asking me why I think this game isn't making crazy money? This is an actual game with sex in it, not porn. The problem is that the game play isn't fun to play... AND people here are looking for porn. There needs to be more porn, and less gameplay (walking and killing). Play to the strengths, the unique art style and witty writing, but remove as much combat as possible and make it more a story telling device and not an actual tactical thing.

My two cents anyways.

Well, this is the old build anyway. I adressed some of the issues on the new one (Rpg Maker MZ).

One thing that changed is that the default attack is 3 hits combo, so even if you miss one it doesn't necessarily make you miss the other two. Status like "Attack" have three digits instead of two, so now the damage calculation is better. No more ROWS, now if you want control, you can use TAUNT.

I heard feedback in the past regarding the lack of H-content. I REALLY enjoy H-content, but I discovered that enjoy it more if I know and care about the characters and developing this connection takes time. Time that will be reflected in textwalls, roleplaying and fighting.

I am planning on putting more H-content, but not in a way that will compromise the storytelling.

Hi I'm curious about this game but after looking at the pics in the overview I got to ask is there ntr in this game I don't care for ntr just my opinion and if there is ntr is it avoidable?

I would like to play this but I'm afraid I'm going to run into something I'm not going to like? I can deal with something's if it is absolutely necessary for the story and written right so I'm just curious if this game is worth me trying or should I move on?

Any info would be appreciated
Thank you for your time :)

In most of the actual gameplay you play as Diana, and Diana is not naive or easily taken advantage of, so while she normally initiates the h-encounter, she often do not get tied down with a single guy.

So, while she does play around with different men, I don't think it would fit in the NTR trope. There is no boyfriend crying in the corner, or some stuff like that.

I mean, you may still not like it. The game can be hard, there are long sessions without H-content... but I think I did something a little different than most HRPGs. I think it's worth checking out.

But I am the developer... so... : P

first post was from 2017 seems like this game has been stagnant. this thing has mad potential. if you want this game to take off just add incnest and get rid of dual protagonist. most people i think prefer male protagonist just focus on that. female mc is fine as hell turn her into a companion or sis or whatever. i could be wrong here but it seems u custom drew the soldier and the other dude artwork. dont. just buy those assets readymade dont think it will be too expensive and instead only draw h scenes and stuff you absolutely need.

That sounds like a way to kill any potential in favor of making a very bland game we've seen a hundred times already. As anyone who plays RPGM games will tell you custom sprites and music go a very long way to making a game feel unique instead of just rearranging the same pieces.

for me this game fails because of lack of direction(by that meaning that it doesn't give you indication what you should do, although it got better with a text description i would like to have visual indicators for this) also please get rid of the night only able to see a circle around you, it's horrible.

As the game is now it feels like the game doesn't want people to enjoy it, and fights them every step of the way trough the story.

personally, a rpgm game for me should be about the story like it is here(but without the time sinks endlessly running back and forth) but also about discovery letting you explore areas and events, this game has big spaces yet there is nothing to discover or run in to and this is sadly making the game sub par for me(or i missed it due too poor direction see above).

Here. I just threw some saves in there.


By the way, thank you for all the feedback. I just forgot to point out that, for those who complained they don't know where to go and it's annoying... the "New Rinets Quest" have a compass now. : D
