Ren'Py Life as an Innocent Waitress [v0.2.2] [Frisson Studios]

[SgtCrise]

um makes perfect sense to me, the more comfortable she gets with certain things the harder it is to lower her integrity. I certainly don't see a problem as I have my integrity at 51 so um your not doing something right. You are pretty arrogant to say things like you gotta pay attention to pacing? This is one of the best paced games on the site and just because YOU can't seem to figure it out or don't understand logic doesn't mean the game has consistency problems.

I can figure it out just fine, buddy, there's no need to get defensive on behalf of the dev, he's a big boy. Reputation and integrity go down to a certain limit, which is perfectly fine, there's a treshold that can not be overcome without certain events triggering, which is a well implemented failsafe. However, there are stages in the game where even if you go full compliant - always selecting the least complaining option when prompted, not adjusting the dress, not dodging etc., there will still be more opportunities for the rep and integrity go up - through events that force Angel to complain. Normally that should be offset by lighter events where she can let it slide, thus dropping the reputation and integrity. But it is very easy to be in a situation where there is no more option to react to lighter events and only an option to react to heavier stuff - raising the rep/integrity. This is how even though I was picking every option availible to lower the rep as much as possible, I still ended up with it going up instead of down. Luckly, through repeated undressing, the exhibition goes up slowly and that eventually, very slowly unlocked new events. It took a long while though, almost as much as making her comfortable with wearing no panties and only then the rep/integrity would start falling from around 70 to 50 - which I imagine is the current lowest threshold.

So you tell me what exactly don't I understand about the process that warrants you snapping like I kicked your dog. Ever heard of feedback?

The game is decently paced, certainly better than a lot of other games, but the bar in the industry is below the floor level and there's still issues that the dev might want to watch out for. Like for example, Angel not being able to leave her room in sports underwear while she doesn't care about walking around with her skirt up and blouse open in the bar.

You should try hot pizza

Already did. I hate that game. Also, I love that game. It's torture to see progress on that one. Worst thing is that the game looks good and is one of the very few with a somewhat decent character creation. It could be so much more than what it is right now. I love 2D games like that, but I think I've played most of the ones similar to it.

I already explained it to you, if you are still having trouble I don't know what else to tell you. My issue with people like you is that there are a lot of toxic people out there on this site. Often times they have good reason to be angry, devs milking people, devs putting out tiny updates after long periods of time or the quality of their product is subpar. This dev in my view and I believe a lot of other people's view is doing something most devs on this site don't. They put out a good product, I would even say excellent product in a timely fashion and are involved in this forum and respond to people's concerns.

Yet people like you and others still trash them, act like you know better, judge them. Constructive comments or suggestions of course are totally fine but it really pisses me off when we finally have a good dev doing good work and people like you SHIT on them. I am done trying to help you be a better person you are ungrateful and selfish and if this dev decides its not worth continuing this product because of all the crap they get from people like you I wouldn't blame them. Your damn right I will get defensive and defend a dev I think is doing a great job. Good day.

how many days have you played in game you guys ?

 

[Cactus Jones]

How often will the game be updated?

 

[SaSteiner]

How often will the game be updated?

The first update took 3 months. Devs now take a 3 week break (One is over now) and then start at 0.3
Currently the only timeline we got is that it'll be this year. Hopefully they can keep their 3 months cycle.

 

[TomUK]

how many days have you played in game you guys ?

Just over 3 weeks.

Thank you so much for your suggestions. I will definitely check them all out. Is there anything else you can think of? I think I have a fetish for being harassed on buses and trains. xD

I can't really think of any other that has a lot of focus on being harassed on transports. Usually just two or three scenes and done, but if you do find some good ones do tell me lol, I do enjoy those moments.

Good Wife and Project Myriam have some very good train scenes. Both have one very, very good scene on the train.

Also, Corrupting Jennifer had a train scenes as well, but sadly, like most train scenes in games, it starts really well but never reaches its potential

Would love to see other events outside the house and bar, maybe the events at school that causes her to come home with stress or being more aroused.

I would agree, but the more areas added, the longer the wait for updates in specific areas. College and more train stuff can be added as a DLC style in future.

I would agree notification when the grind no longer helps with new scenes would be nice but there is clearly complaining about HOW MUCH grinding there is. I have over 400 exhib and I play because I want to play not because I expect more scenes.

Sorta is notifactions, once you get far enough along on certain events, it will tell you more events will be added at a later stage.

I know, but leveling up cleaning skill ignores exhibition requirements when cleaning at night.

Can you clean at night? I did not know this, presumed you could only clean in the afternoon after college and before work.

Project Myriam looks like something I would enjoy and it seems Corrupting Jennifer as well. I could not find Good Wife in here though. Maybe the name was changed.

Thanks!

Can MC work topless now or still she adjust the dress after someone removed her bra?

she can work topless and without panties.

I don't know how far men in the bar can go with her, but so far, seen men randomly sucking on her tit, spanking her ass and tits.

I'm over 300 exhibitionism, starts to get slower to add points once you hit 300, but I can add about 4-5 each shift.

Show me exactly where did I "SHIT" on the dev. Or say anything about him for that matter.
"As with any sandbox game, you gotta really pay attention to pacing, otherwise there's inconsistencies like that popping up."
That's all there was. There are inconsistencies in pacing, I pointed that out and provided examples, it'll likely going to get fixed in one of following patches, that's all there is to it. Maybe the dev knows about it already, but maybe not, I don't live in his head. So are the constructive comments fine or not? I never said a bad word about the him, but here you are, going for the jugular because apparently any feedback that isn't purely sycopanthic is a personal attack on YOU. And then you call me toxic. Get a grip.

The way you presented yourself. I am sorry you can't see it, many toxic people can't because no one tells them they are toxic. I was trying to help you out there but anyways done talking with you. Maybe learn from this experience and moderate yourself.

His original comment was constructive criticism of the mechanics an ongoing game. Its part of the whole idea of beta releases, to get feedback while the game is being developed. I understand where you're coming from about people being rude/demanding with devs (ive seen it in plenty of threads) but you're lashing out at the wrong target here.

 

[TomUK]

What stats do you need for her to work topless, she been stripped of her bra many times but always goes back and dresses up after, I'm 183 exhibitionist at the moment, rep is 75 and bar integrity is 69.

I disagree, the way criticism is delivered is also important and his in my view was rude and arrogant. You can disagree with me that is totally fine but others on this forum have been respectful when making suggestions or comments. I stand by what I said and I see no need to go into this further. You don't like what I said or who I said it too that is your right to have that opinion.

I believe bra is above 200 and panties above 300

Again, what exactly was rude and arrogant about my comment? Where did I "shit" on the dev? Do enlighten me, because clearly, my toxicity blinds me to my failings. How magnanimous of you to accept that the feedback was correct without saying anything and swiftly move the goalpost to my tone - without explaining a single thing about what was wrong with it. Well guess what pumpkin, that's not how any of it works. If you have a criticism, you provide arguments other than "I said so" to prove your point, or you make yourself look like a clown.

If you truly cared about constructive feedback, you would've taken a step back, put your ego aside for one nanosecond in your life and figured out that you are lashing out for no reason because you're angry at something else. I don't know what, nor care. Figure your own shit before being toxic to people on the internet and then doubling down on it.



Anyway, thread isn't about it. The game's good, there's some flaws that'll likely get fixed, dev's doing a great job so far, especially with HS chargen and posing. Great choices of clothing, hopefully we'll see a lot more of that in play before moving on to naked stuff. So long as pacing stays on track, this could be very much up there with the best of them. Not sure about throwing in literal bums that early, but that's personal preference, there are likely people that get a kick out of that too. Hope the dev continues to deliver at the same pace, solid work.

I believe bra is above 200 and panties above 300

Yeah after playing for a few more hours I got Exhibitionist up to 300, both rep and bar integrity are down to 50 but it wasn't util I hit Being Seen skill at level 7 when she started working without bra & panties, and now Exhibitionist has started going above 300.
