VN Ren'Py Long Road Home [Ep.16] [OBDGames]

[Jacowboy]

You made comparisons to WVM which is pretty disingenuous.

I understand why people get a little antsy with that one. It's a basketball-themed game with an MC that is apparently a once-in-a-generation white Michael Jordan who could get a scholarship to any college in the country. And in, what? Four and a half years? The game has had a single game of basketball (and that a pre-season exhibition game), of which the MC only participated in the second half. It's clear the dev had little to no real plan of where the game was going, hence why the first chapter was completely retconned and it is currently bogged down going nowhere fast.

LRH is a completely different kettle of fish. Yes the MC is constantly picking up new women, but the plot continues to progress forwards. The MC has his bike and has become a prospect of the club. We've had glimpses into what's going on behind the scenes and we're obviously approaching the big showdown between the two clubs, which should provide plenty of non-porn drama and excitement. Granted, as the number of girls has ballooned there have been, by Dimitri's own admission, some delays due to the number of scenes required to address everything. But I don't see any significant problems. If this were anything like WVM, the MC would still be in the first town and only an in-game week would have passed since his release from prison.

Except I wasn't talking about the plots, in fact, I'm pretty sure I stated that a couple of times... I was talking about the number of LIs and the relationships in general and how the game is STARTING to feel like WVM, because, and let me quote you:

"as the number of girls has ballooned there have been, by Dimitri's own admission, some delays due to the number of scenes required to address everything"

Wait, what was my first post?? Oh yeah...

Oh dang, I was liking this game until the dev decided to go full stupid with the amount of LIs, and it just keeps going... this is starting to feel like WVM... =/

And there IS a reason this game reminded me of WVM specifically... but anyways, I see you're being dense on purpose here, so let's just drop it.

NOTE : the update is finish but it still have some error. i will post after fixing it and when i have more time. Be patient guys

Any progress ?

 

[MAGO-DAG]

I have just finished the newest version and I think the dev is doing good work so far ... that said i think the dev should maybe add some kind of stat system . I mean you play a guy that went to jail ok but for some reason the guy looks a little buff maybe have some kind of fitness stat that you can raise , so far what I think dev should add to the game other than more story is a way to see your stats like str, vit, def maybe add some kind driving skill and maybe add gun skills hand gun, rifle, heavy gun since this game seems like it bikers vs bikers maybe add so kind of combat one on one , one on two , one on many...I really like this game for the story so far .
this may be off topic but when I play this game I am reminded of SOA . I mean reapers vs mayons. In this game its rogue's vs minons.

Someone really played enough of GTA or Fallout... Dimitri probably got tense while reading this

Naw, I got a good laugh out of it. He took about five stabs at it and still didn't make a compelling case for a stats system.
Not going to happen...

He could've taken 50 stabs, but bad idea is just a bad idea.

 

[johnmnf692]

Anyone have any deeper insight as to what the scorned path entails? It says that there will be more casualties and that the girls will be in greater danger? In danger of what, exactly? And of course being in greater danger doesn't let us know if they will actually get hurt or not either.

no we have speculated a bit
but only the dev really knows, we will have to wait a few updates to see it all play out

ok maybe no stats maybe some kind of training to get better at shooting or hand to hand combat ... there was that thing when you get the bike and you got help to finish it, there was a few scenes about learning to drive the bike and stuff. maybe the training could be something like that? or maybe someone else to train with? so far there was only a few fights 1. just after getting to the city with jessy and they go to the strip club. 2. when you show at the ink place after meeting the hacker there some other biker there . 3. on the road when you get the mission to go to Sadie art place to get a letter when you leave there is some kind fight with you driving the bike and being shot at...

mc is ex-military so uncle sam took care of that.

 

[Death3248]

mc is ex-military so uncle sam took care of that.

that maybe true but there was only that one flash back of that time that I recall. some guy riding a moped with a rpg on he's back... I mean if the dev is going to do bikers vs bikers thing the dev may want to put some kind gun or hand training in order to make the mc the bad ass he was when he was working for good old uncle sam ... the other stats would help with the safety of the club , hotel, and being able to finish certain things a bit faster. and better to protect the mc loved ones. I mean there is that one scene at the gym when he is lifting weights. maybe add a few more trips to the gym or add a gun range you could go to... I am sure you could learn about the different guns there and maybe be able to train gun or just shooting skills.
I mean you play a guy that is in jail because a mission went fubar or you just didn't follow orders I can't remember which it was... it a start so uncle sam did train you but you have been in jail for 3 or 4 years .. skills get rusty if not used and little time at the gym or shooting range would help not to be rusty... I know this is a vn game but stats would help with a few things in the game... such as str could make the mc be a bigger bad ass than he was. vit or fitness have more health or move just a bit faster. def is pretty much how much damage you can take or what kind of protection you have. gun or shooting skills hand gun, rifle, heavy gun. which gun would work the best at any given time. be it hand gun short to mid range rifle for mid to long range or heavy for when you just want to fire few hunread rounds or to keep bunch of assholes at bay. not too many people will line up if you bring out a m 249 saw mechine gun that would eat them for lunch or dinner. I would think that being a ex soldier you would have some people that could get you better guns...I mean if this game is going to be a WAR between rogues vs minions then those skills may help the over all game. I mean since the mc went to jail his skills most likely are rusty I mean hand to hand or gun skills . before he went to jail his skills were most likely around 8 to 9. jail most likely dropped those skills to 5 or 6.
that said if you could train those skills back to or better than before . most people would like to have the skills they had before.

Dude, have you paid any attention? Ryker led spec ops in the military and did several tours.. who should train him? He mopped the floor with 2 minions the first evening at the fox hole. why are you so fixiated to train him? why do you want to waste time (dev programminig and us playing) with unnessesar stuff?

I call that bull sh_t ... ok He can fight hand to hand but what is he going to do If Minions used guns just like that scene when you leave Sadies you get attacked on your way back and you end up in the hospital... I mean if he had his gun would he be able to shoot and drive ... most likely not if he didn't have the training... most people can shoot if they stop to aim, but if you are driving a bike you may not shoot good inless it up close. driving and shooting req skill not your normal person or even a ex merc wouldn't know... most merc know how to shoot some can hit moving targets. but driving and shooting are different... some skill is required to do both...

oh and by the way I know that if the dev would put some kind of stats or skill system it would take longer on the updates I am sorry about that but if the dev did add the stats or skill thing then there is more replay value ... I mean take final fantasy x most players beat the game without maxing out there stats. other players beat the game with maxed out stats. its all about how you play do you want to short cut just to beat a game or do you want to be someone that beats the game with maxed out stats or skills...

I also know this is a vn game and not a rpg .. final fantasy x was just a ref ... that said the way this game is broken down between days and nights ... it's not bad but maybe change it like some of the other games that have something like 4 time periods ... that way maybe the mc could do more things ... I mean I recall a scene where the mc is doing work at the penthouse and something like 10 mins later its night and the mc at the bar. I mean some work takes long to finish. I get that but to use a whole day thats not right...I also recall a scene the land lady has a leak that job should take just a few hours but no it took alot longer...

Idk, I guess he wants him to train with a Jedi Master, or perhaps Chuck Norris?


*edit* Oh god... he's still bringing up stats... oh brother.

People who sit in f95 and are dissatisfied with something in the game, it’s difficult to explain something to them... even if there was Chuck Norris Mc who fucks all the girls, they would find something to complain about

Edit: This is quite an extensive discussion. when Mc is the strongest gigachad, they don’t like it, they say Mc fucks everyone easily... and when Mc is a simple dude without strong arms, they complain “Why is Mc such a weakling?"

No offense to games that employ a stat system, mini games or other busy work gimmicks, but all that does is give the allusion that you're actually doing something. Typically, this is done when you lack an actual story. (Sandbox)

That is not the case with LRH. We are just now at the first milestone of MC's journey; we are a long way from where this story is ultimately going to conclude.

I'm telling a story that isn't like any other AVN. Are there a lot of girls and fucking along the way? Hell yes!

New flash to the citizens and incels, bikers like to fuck! (A lot!)

You're obviously very passionate about your notion that MC needs training. You're right he does, but not military training. He is training to be a member of a 1% Motorcycle Club. Nuf said...

I don't know about most people but I do watch some of the game forums. this game just happens to be on my list of games that I like to play... so far I have tried to answer something like 4 other posts but most of the post are some thing like spam you get in your email it is things that you wished to not be a part of... that said to any body that has a problem with me posting about maybe the dev should add stats or a skill system it is just idea that I think would help . because the updates are taking 3 to 6 months before a new version comes out . my idea would maybe add a few hours or a few days to the current game as something extra to do... most games have a screen that says this is the end of current version or you get a map screen that doesn't go any where or something like that .... maybe if adding a stats or skills you could max out you would still be playing the game but with maxed stats or skills...

Ok I get that. you said something about training to be a 1% motorcycle club. but what type of training? so far I have seen how to build the bike and how to ride said bike. I don't think the mc needs any training to get more lady's I think he got a good amount of lady's already... and since bikers seem very badass what going on with this so called war... I have played just about every version you have as of now and so far the games very good ... will you be adding a combat system?

No offense but what you are describing is "useless filler", ppl have been complaining about that in Ubisoft games which they are actual games with interesting gameplay

Games made with renpy .. honestly a sad joke to add such useless stuff to make them longer
Wasting time seeing the same couple of images and same couple of text lines to grind stats or whatever
Personally I use "0x52_URM" mod to skip that crap in renpy games.
