VN Ren'Py Light of My Life [Ch. 8 v0.8.1] [Naughty Road]

Hey naughtyroad, guess what I'm doing today. I promise I won't turn on my creative writing instructor mode

pisstaker · 2024-12-21T16:02:07+0000

I'm curious about the locked paths.
Since I'm a reasonable sane man, I'm playing all the paths. But supposedly I had a lapse of judgment and committed the sacrilege of going on a "Denise only path", what would be of the scenes?
Are there versions where Macy isn't involved at all in the sultry scenes? Did Lou only marry one of his ...wards? By God.

This is not hypothetical. I just would find it absurd if there is an entire other game here with exclusive scenes for each daughter, I can't even imagine the workload.

pisstaker · 2024-12-21T16:05:10+0000

Count Morado just answered my question. The game just locks you out of both of them.
But just imagining a Light of My Life where your daughters probably hate you and you are just fooling around in the office, must be a sad game.

There are a lot of AVNs like that, some are oversimplified, like just "yes" and "no" as options to close or open a path, but the light of my life is a little more complicated, there is a hidden score behind each character, you have to say the right things at the right time, that's why people sometimes drops a "where is da fking walkthrough!?". The first thing you need to understand is the lore, the MC's older daughter is on bad terms with him and the trio is depressed and financially and emotionally broken - so you must choose carefully each choice to build trust to finally pop up a "yes" and "no" choice.

but then there is the harem fantasy, you eventually can convince the women in the game to accept you as the "alpha" of the pack.

I made a save like that and share it here a long time ago (currently not available due to locking down my LOML video downloads folder that I shared previously). The MC is an asshole to everyone gameplay. Not even fooling around with office peers.

And definitely don't sweat your choices. There's do-overs, and redemptions, and characters will give you second chances so you don't fall out of there path by accident.

Don't try to sus out what the "desired" response is, act like a natural human being. You're not getting locked out of a lewd scene just because you said the soup was too salty, and conversely you're not getting laid just because you said that dress looked nice.

It's not as hard as you make it seem. Players just need to play with compass and common sense. Honestly, unless a player specifically makes asshole, selfish choices, the experience is robust. Sure, some nuances happen if a player choose to allow a character to be okay with seeing them piss, or similar. And some dialogue is flavored different depending upon choice of relationships, nicknames, and body part nomenclature... But this is NOT a game where the dev wants to outsmart players or try to punish them.

you know, some people that just want to rush to the h-scenes and don't give a damn about the story will fail. Is quite easy to understand the mechanics, if you like to read and not just fap.

So just to confirm if I did this right, there were only scenes with the sisters and no one else?

No, you can hook up with more 4 women from the MC office and eventually build a harem.

Oh, to see the world through Julian's eyes...

gka7 · 2024-12-21T16:33:32+0000

can you only have Macy path and not with both sisters?

TBH, Light Of My Life choices are often quite obvious, they usually boggle down to "be a decent person" or "kick the baby".
Sometimes you can give an answer that the character will make them like you more but that is it.
Honestly, I see it as a strength, this is a story about healing, and adding good to the world. Complexity would only complicate it and make it a lesser game.

Also, I always like to see I still earned "love points" when I'm already maxed out, something triggers in my monkey brain saying I'm doing a good job.

No. You get double or nothing.

Well, then there are the slow-burn games like eva kiss and dr pink cake AVNs, and many other devs with the absolute impossibility of harem, sometimes I engage in some AVNs that truly need a walkthrough. There is one that I spent months playing, Shattered, the genre is controversial... I'm open to everything that is a good read anyway. The AVN is a fucking maze and simply giant, with hundreds of routes that can intersect, combine, and fail.

Except Macy and Denise. You cannot choose just one.

I don't think you played properly.

There is only one no-brainer and that is Denise and Macy

So much time has passed since my last playthrough. We have anal scene with Denise? I was playing just for that ass.

No and I bet it'll take 3 more years until we get a tease, let alone a full scene.
