RPGM - LonaRPG [v0.9.3.0 Beta] [EccmA417]

It's about time I reviewed this game. I've played this on and off for over a year now, and it's absolutely amazing.

RPG mechanics, a pretty nice story with good lore, character customization, and plenty of sex scenes, but these can vary. If you do a whore build, the sex is pretty hot. Idk, seeing Lona cum on a orkind dick after fucking through a cave is *chef's kiss* . The rape scenes on the other hand... can lead to blood and bruising, etc. This usually only happens when you run out of stamina or you're not doing a slut run. So you can kinda pick if you wanna see this kind of content.

The game is hard, but at the same time, not really... Once you learn the system and mechanics, it's not really that bad. I'd say the roughest part is definitely the beginning, it's a bit of a grind. But once you get past that, it's pretty smooth sailing. If you try this masterpiece, I highly recommend starting off as a slut on your first run. Makes the grind easier and I think it'll help introduce you to the game.

This game is such a mixed bag cause its very fun AS a game, but all the H-scenes and animations are minimal effort and time-consuming as hell. With all the controversial and gruesome tags I was expecting something... less boring lmao.

I've been playing this game all day. Hands down, it's the best and most immersive RPG I've ever played.

So far, the quests have been interesting. Characters are well written. The art, and basically everything I've seen in the game so far has been great. Also, the dev is very based, you'll see what I mean when you meet certain characters and see references hidden in the dialogues and item descriptions

It's very hard and unforgiving, and it can be even more so if you're a masochist.

Came for the porn, stayed for the game.

the most awful thing i have ever played. the combat is clunky and borderline unplayable, the sex scenes are horrendous and only likeable if you are into seeing blood and grime on every inch of everything. a lot of the characters are just lifted from nazi propaganda. if you hire someone they will attack you if you try to fight near them since your attacks will end up hitting them with the clunky combat, or they will die to the enemies. the exhaustion system is annoying at best. if you attack or really do anything too much you fall down and cant do anything if your being attacked. its marketed as a harsh game but it's just tedious and clunky.

Probably one of the best rpg hentai survival games.

The art could better, and there really should be more sex scenes that don't require combat. That's part of the mechanics though so I don't know how op would change that. Really needs an easy mode so you can make your way through the game, but having a hard as default game can be good too.

The combat is what subtracted the star. RPGMaker is not made for the type of combat this game uses. Its fast pace, clunky, and spammy. Theirs a reason most rpgmaker games use a turn based system.

It's not a game for a casual gamer like me. I was expecting a story-driven RPGM, but instead I found it to have complex survival-oriented mechanics. Visually and story-wise it looks very interesting, but I gave up because of the difficulty of the gameplay. I don't like the long learning curve in this kind of game.

This review is being translated, I apologize if you can't understand it well.

Pros:
-An excellent survival RPG with a high difficulty in basic mode.
-The game interface is cool despite being simple
-The story and character building are good, but not original.
-Multiple ways to resolve scenes depending on your build.

Cons:
-EXTREMELY fast-paced combat, forcing unnecessary difficulty, since RPG Maker is not exactly made for this (this causes performance problems regardless of the machine, since the problem is the game engine itself)
-Content limited to the heterosexuality of even our character, limiting scenes, the succubus build, among others. In fact, this is what made me stop playing the game. The lack of this content, however, there are scenes without penetration and still contain action of being able to use the babies in the game for such actions... exaggerated and unnecessary (and yes, this made me uncomfortable, I can't ignore that the creator limits one part and develops another without reason...)
-Limited builds and limited development. Making one build deprives you of another...
-Lack of creativity in more complex development, since everything is limited to Lona for a good part of the game and even if there are companions, they are limited, which makes the difficulty of the game the same in all aspects throughout the game, living alone and isolated
-Lack of control and even options to prevent or make more engaging actions happen in the game.
-Forced difficulty: Literally EVERYONE can abuse LONNA without suffering consequences, but if Lonna fights back she is seen as a villain, her honor is lowered and she is persecuted????????
-Although I said there was no bi content, I was wrong, I meant only for Lonna, since everyone there, even the Goblins, grab each other...
-The game is only made to leave the player frustrated, not having any real difficulty, but rather a slow gameplay.
-The enemies don't get tired... Lonna climaxes every 10 seconds (literally) and this time can be shortened depending on her status and build. (yes, this tires Lonna out a lot, but the guys who grab her can cum 30 times)

A good challenge doesn't need to fap; it just requires to get better. When you understand the gameplay and how to create a solid build, the game truly begins. Although the game can be quite challenging, especially when you die due to some repulsive scenes that can be downright disgusting, it's not for the faint of heart. Even with all that, the game remains incredibly rewarding to win, as it means you've conquered one of the toughest challenges you've faced.

I don't even jerk off to this I just play it as an actual RPG. Can be a bit grindy, but only if that's how you choose to play. Very open ended, and really captures a unique, grim atmosphere that stands out not just in the realm of h games, but media as a whole.

Very nice, i have been playing this for years. strongly recommend. Yes, it is hard, cold and unforgiven but it is one of the best among all the game i have played. Yah! not to mention it is getting better and better and got updated constantly.

Game is BRUTAL.

Plays like a hardcore version of the old Zelda games, except you lose all your items and get raped (or even enslaved) when you're defeated. Basically appeals to people who get a thrill out of being masochistic, because there's so many ways for poor Lona to get absolutely ruined.

All in all, an expertly put together game. A bit buggy in places so save often. Completely unrelentingly difficult at times so look up guides and tips if you get stuck.

You're not a hero - just live to see the next day

At first I looked at Lona and didn't think much off it, after playing for hours and hours, its become one of my favourite games and I can't wait to see the future,

Gameplay is 10/10 its extremely challenging and makes you rethink every move you do, survival element and sandbox mean you can play the game how ever you want.

I would recommend this game to anyone looking for a challenging game to play.

It is an excellent game, which demonstrates challenging and punishing gameplay, but rewarding as you evolve, it touches on many interesting themes as well as its systems, which are very good. The game's theme is dark while giving you a modicum of hope as you evolve

This game is very good. If it gets released on Steam, I will definitely buy it and play it again. It has deep and challenging systems, which I enjoy because I love difficult games. It's fun to play and requires you to use every method to survive. It offers players a variety of choices, allowing them to be anything from a prostitute to a hero. The character artwork is cute, yet the style can be dark and fitting for the game's theme. The 18+ scenes are varied and well-executed. I have no complaints about the visuals. The characters and story are well-designed and memorable, including both main and supporting characters. The dark humor in the story suits the game's theme perfectly. I can't wait to see it in version 1.0, and please release it on Steam. One more thing, I'd like to see more pregnancy content—just a personal preference, haha

Mechanics are too granular and complex for what little content exists.
For example, ranged attacks have you hold a button to activate it, then move your cursor tile-by-tile to reach your intended target.
Except the game isn't turn-based, so your enemy will have zoomed across the map in a zigzag pattern and gutted you before you line up a shot.

Enemies move at about 3x the speed of the player, and there's plenty of weapon-types and special attacks, but all of them are worthless because combat doesn't really seem viable against anything other than rats.
Every combat encounter has you vastly outnumbered by much faster enemies who can dodge in and out of your hit-range while striking you with impunity, even if you max your combat stats, you do about 1% of an average enemy's hp per swing (and they do about 30% of yours, minimum) most of the items/weapons are bad or medicore and any of the potentially good ones are locked behind a perk that locks you out of some of the game's sparse sexual content.

Speaking of which as far as I can tell, none of the sexual content is played for actual sex appeal.

The whole thrust of the game is grimy dirty filth. And not even in the fun way where 'filth' is code for sex.
It's all just shit and piss and blood and vomit.

I was tricked by the huge amount of high-score reviews on this game, and decided to just 'put up with' the game being unentertaining and unsexy until it 'got to the good part' but it never actually does.

And then I walked into a building in the centre of the main hub-area and got instantly forcibly railroaded into a scene where a huge burly guy got fucked in the ass by another huge burly guy in the ass and I realized that this was going to be the whole game.

Porn-tropes twisted into as un-sexy a form as the developer can manage then thrown in your face for shock-value.

0/10, genuinely not worth your time.

Edit: And no, the game isn't 'difficult', it's just bad.

Take a quest, go to the marker, beat up monsters, eat food, clear quest, buy food, buy key at inn to get better sleep/full food, repeat.
The battle isn't fun nor enjoyable, having to eat and sleep amid just strutting through a battle or quest map and the added stamina spend on walking on the main map is just abhorrent, meaning you can't just check something out of curiosity and it feels like you're forced to repeat a cycle until you have enough of everything to not end up in a permanent crawl into "bad end," nr - whatever.

I enjoy darker stories but this isn't exactly anything, is there even a story?

Pretty great overall if you're looking for a bit edgier of a story without going to "2000s red/black OC" levels of edge.
The games a bit grindy at times, but progression feels pretty good once you really get into it.
The erotic scenes are mostly tied to defeat in combat but there's still plenty outside of that as well, and it's also worked into gameplay just fine.
The only real complaint I have is the art, it's great, but why is everyone's splooge yellow?
Really puts me off continuing at times when I finally get to the good part only for it to look like everyone's pumping the main character full of goopy piss.
I always hated this design choice you see in some eastern ero titles, it makes 0 sense and looks closer to piss than it does cum.
If I just slammed some back alley hooker, and my nut turned yellow, I'd be booking a doctor's appointment as soon as humanly possible.
Great game otherwise.

The game has such a good vibe. It reminds me of this one game called "Claire s" I dont know what and I loved it the extreme gore tho is scary but I try to ignore that. So I hope this game turns out to be on of the best games in the NSFW history.

As an rpg it is really really good, i loved the fact that things can go south and you end up dying by multiple factors, out of food, be enslave or even you just suicide yourself if you want, that degree of liberty it is marvelous.

On the sex side it is solid with good mechanics that can be used in and out of combat, personally i enyoed the rpg and combat more than the sex scenes

But overall, a game that you can enconter once in a while and you will remember it foryears

Game of the Century!
I wish there were more games like this.

Even though it's a hentai RPG game, you'd like to avoid the H-part of the game for your own sanity!
It's the first hentai RPG, which I enjoyed playing the way it's intended, reading skills descriptions, tips, dialogues, notes etc.

Pros:
+ great UI
+ immersive gameplay and progress scale
+ well written story / plot
+ heavily modded engine, and it's stable
+ it's like GTA, lots of jokes about "modern" and woke things
+ revolutionary RPG mechanics and skill upgrade trees
+ cute loli protagonist, hav to protecc!
+ avoidable hentai scenes, which is great cuz it's gore, duh
+ really dark ambient and atmosphere, gives cold goosebumps
+ in combat you have to use different tactics, unlike spam click one button

Cons:
- lots of gore
- too scary
- Lona, as well as other characters, looks dirty af
- lack of cute / beautiful art galleries

This game worth every dollar. Developers should make a sequel with less gore, and more cute kawaii lesbo, solo, sexy scenes without brown swollen stinky dicks.
