Ren'Py Completed Long Live the Princess [v1.0.1] [Belle]

[Evangelion-01]

There are not too many games that have stat checks, and if you don't pass one randomly thrown in the middle of the game you have unchangeable effects on the story. What old school games has events that has hard checks on random stats you can raise? Fallout has some, but even those make sense. You want to convince someone to do something? Have more speech. In this game its, you want to convince someone of something? Better have enough agility to catch them when they run away from you.

Every Pen and Paper game I know.

*Edit* Oh, and all those old school games have guides written on how to play the game most efficiently

They don't, since the game master can just define the game and checks as needed... it's easier to take prepared sheets... but less fun aswell.
Also don't forget that ultimately there will be a timelimit and a New Game+ that allows to carry stat gained over to the new game.
The game by design can't be completed in a single playthrough, so useing a guide with that intent will eventually fail you.
And if I want to play a game following a guide I could simply switch to a VN with no restrictions (which I personally consider boring as hell)

 

[Sildani]

That’s a pretty good way to look at this game: less a VN or VRPG, more like a pencil ‘n’ paper RPG that doesn’t need dice. On a screen.

at no point in playing do you ever get the idea that if you mess up your sisters events that she leaves for good. At no point does the game tell you when you need specific stat points raised until you suddenly fail the check. Not using a guide doesnt magically make those things known.

Yes actually it does, if you actually pay attention and read the dialog.

 

[bigguy_foryou]

...you are not commonly playing RPG games I take? Or at least old school ones.
Raising your stats first and as fast as possible is a common strategy, and it's easy enough here.
A walkthrough is only useful if you either don't pay attention to the game, are unwilling to reload or restart to optimize your playstyle or are actually stuck without much help on the ingame part.
In regards to the sisters there have been warnings about this in the thread aplenty, and even the game warns you that this is an inversible decision that could fail horible.

I just like to know about all the available content in my porn games tbh. I've taken to just extracting images to see exactly what I can and can't get, what I've missed etc. at this point.

i hope we don't have to wait too long to see more sex scenes with Samarra. Also i would like to see some naughty scenes with that nun.

So this thread totally didn't go to shit.

But yeah I agree. No walkthrough is best playthrough. Everything that is expected of you and its consequences along with where you might wanna go or do(hehe) next is explicitly given in the dialogue. Following any sort of walkthrough for this game ruins it. There are games that need or warrant a walkthrough but this one isn't one of those.

Play the game while paying attention to the dialogue rather than a guide and think of the characters as people instead of stat points and you'll be good. There are plenty of other games that give you a paper thin plot as an excuse for looking at renders or getting to the action. I'm glad Belle isn't one of those(yet at least). It's nice to have a game that's a bit more mature compared to others in that regard.

Belle I expect the rise in the walkthrough folk is a result of being featured on the main page. I hope you don't intend to change your game design due to this? I appreciate what you have here so dumbing it down would kill the vibe for me personally at least.

I don't intend to change the game's design, but I'm not blind to some of the most common pitfalls. The biggest thing that I know needs tweaking is the Perversity ability. A lot of players struggle to figure out how to even begin raising that ability, so that's a clear sign that the game doesn't guide the player properly in that area. I haven't figured out how to solve that problem, but I'll get around to it.

Other things, like the clues provided by the gallery in the latest version, are also added as a result of seeing what players struggle with.

I don't intend to dumb down anything, but the game should flow properly and provide everything the player needs to decide where to focus their attention next. There is room for improvement here, but apart from Perversity, it's nothing major.

Her two sex scenes are mutually exclusive. If you’ve signed up to be her boyfriend, you get vaginal sex, if you’re her FWB, you get anal. Not both.

Anyone knows which variable to change to go from boyfriend to FWB ?

No there is no updated walkthrough, and if you suggest it people will shit on you for wanting one.

You cannot use the walkthrough posted in the OP, it will lead you to down the wrong path choices and you will miss skill checks. But don't bring that up, people hate it on this game post for some reason.

Cannot leave city hall?

Just click the map icon. I'll probably add a menu item for leaving, but it's not really necessary.

It's weird as i remember being able to leave city hall w/o map button or am i going crazy?

I've been going back and forth with it. There was a leave option there before I added the map as I wanted each location to feel more separate from each other, but I might as well streamline it.

Is the pregnancy chance 100%? Because if I understood you correctly, there's some one time dialogue after removing the spell and having a scene. Either I'm really lucky or it's 100% since I'm sure Evelyn got pregnant during the very first time after the spell removal. Seems a bit high if it's 100%

There is nothing random in this game. Not one thing.

Hey fellow preverts (sic), a quicm question. In the android version, how does one access the game menu?

Maybe a mouseover that tells the next step for raising a stat?
