VN Ren'Py Long Road Home [v10.1 Part 3] [OBDGames]

[Dimitri57]

So what your saying is that if I'm on the Red path, I can still get with Rachael and Chloe (and possibly others) and am not locked out of pursing them? Also don't know if you answered this or if you already stated before, but will there be a point that Jessy or the others we can pursue get with other guys on the side? Great game so far, unique from most games I've played. Keep up the good work man. Doing pretty good for first VN.

Thank you for your comments on the game thus far. I'm trying to put something out there that breaks from the conventional adult VN template. By virtue of that, it isn't everyone's cup of tea.

You are correct that MC will be able to pursue others on the Red path as the story progresses.

This is a nice game but since it's the first time I'm playing I have to ask if the blue path for the first part (with Tracy and Jessy) will be continued or was that a happy ending?

 

[Dimitri57]

It was meant as a early happy ending for a MC that was too good to survive being an Outlaw Biker. I may continue it in the future but it wouldn't follow the Biker theme.

I would like to know this too as Tracy seems completely out of the picture now given the Good Boy ending and quoted text saying the Bad Boy ending was the only continuation (where you ride off with Jessy leaveing Tracy behind). I'm more than happy to stop playing if thats it from her. Great first 3 releases. OBD did a great job but the cast of women seem too big now and lost Tracy, my main interest. Too many games loseing their lead females of late for all these teenagers or just replacement characters, i don't get it. I really liked Tracy's design and were her story would go with the MC. Did anybody care for Jessy? I'm assumeing they did.

Not meaning to sound negative its just an observation i've noticed with afew games now and they either get canceled/ abandoned after faceing huge backlash in the change losing Patreons or dev being fed up of the constant complaints. Again don't mean to sound aweful.

I urge anyone who hasn't already played this to give it ago, it has a good plausable taboo relationship, i didn't think i'd be fond of and the plot is something different to most games with great renders and animations. Just don't get too attached to any of the characters as this one seems more like its namesake - a journey across America slaying as many females as possible.

Good to know. I really hope so. I look forward to that release.

Don't worry about voicing your worries or legitimate complaints. I have thick skin. (It has gotten thicker since starting this project...)

Thank you for your comments and observations about the game. I was striving to put a game out that is different.

Where are you coming up with that Tracy is lost?

Saved me a lot of time / stress searching the thread as I was sure that you had already said that Tracy ( and her new play thing - sorry forgot her name ) would be back (visiting ) Soon Cheers

Thanks Dimitri for your gratious reply. I didn't want to be harsh on the game if thats how it came across as i have really liked it. Loved it even. Hence my appreciation of Tracy and urgeing others to check out the great renders and animations you have created in the same post.

You certainly have made something different. After seeing the screenshots awhile back and being drawn in to play off the back of them, like other Ren'py games I'm then always hopeing the story/ plot and writing delivers something different and not too cliche with other games is a bonus. From the off in LRH in the military prison, the writing in the tutorial was the differance, you had me vested never mind the introduction of Tracy and then unfolding plot. Only trouble is i got too attached to that character and plot.

Since there's a lot of bitching about the game going down a darker path, I just want to say that I for one welcome that development (as well as any possible new masters/overlords that come with... )!

There are tons of games which claims to be about things like corruption, m-dom*, harem and even rape, but when you get down to actually playing those games, it turns out that there might be some of that stuff early on in the game, but pretty soon the male MC is turned into the usual white knight, galavanting around playing hero and being told by the women in his harem that they want him to fuck other women, so that they (the other women) too can experience his heavenly love.

It would be very nice to play a game where you consistently can play as an alpha male bad boy asshole with criminal/violent tendencies, where everything isn't hunky dory lovey dovey all the time. Without going total sadistic psycopath in the process, meaning the MC still can be nice and have people he cares about.

And in that vein, are there any plans for the option to rape female enemies (I'm thinking that a person that's not above murdering his male enemies probably shouldn't be above raping his female enemies)? I mean as opposed to seducing over every woman the MC meets to his "team", which becomes kind of ridiculous after a while.

* Also, shouldn't this game have a M-dom tag? Forcing the head of a teenage girl on your cock and cuming down her throat should probably count as M-dom. Especially since there is no excuse afterwords, only an explanation in the lines of "if you play with fire, you get burned". Also, I root for more of those kinds of scenes!

I'm still unsure about this blue/red thing. If it comes to girls, what does blue do, what does red do. Heard multiple things yet.
For example at the very beginning, telling Tracy the truth about her daughter is blue. Does this give disrespect (from Tracy or Jessy?)

Good/Bad changed starting update 0.4.0. They became Red = Gain Respect, Blue = Gain Disrespect. There was no red/pill, blue/pill angle in my thought process. It was just simply choose one color or the other.

Respect is a core value of Biker culture. The MC will need to gain the respect of the club to be able to join them. I didn't feel Good/Bad would work to reflect that. An act that would be viewed as "bad" by the public could very well be viewed as "good" if it was a benefit to the club. Tracking if an act gained or lost respect seemed fit better.

This is the first game for me to develop. I'm trying to keep it real as much as I can giving I'm making a porn game...

i'm on 0.4.1
blue is "good" points, red is "bad" points in chapter 1-3. Blue = Gain Disrespect, Red = Gain Respect in chapter 4. Does this mean its good to gain disrespect?

Just focus on the Red/Blue paths going forward from 0.4.0. Think about episodes 1, 2, 3 as a very long prologue. The Good/Bad points did not carry forward to 0.4.0. Your relationship with Jessy and Tracy is pretty much set given what they conspired to do with JD. No one has clean hands...

In general, if you want to be accepted by the Bike club, gaining "disrespect" will not help you. You will be faced with choices or tasks that you may not want to do even if it causes you to lose some respect.

Red (bad) points and blue (good) points accumulated through Chapters 1-3 are irrelevant in Chapter 4. In fact, neither good points nor bad points are even referenced in Chapter 4. What you need to get to Chapter 4 is entirely based on your choice of how to handle JD in Chapter 3.

The confusion arises because there are also red- and blue-highlighted choices in Chapter 4. However, in that chapter they have nothing to do with either bad or good. Now they represent respect (red) and disrespect (blue) toward the biker gang. Whether YOU, as the player, regard any given choice as inherently good or bad, is not relevant to the biker gang or to the story. It appears to me, though, that you will either get along with that gang or not, depending on those choices in Chapter 4 and going forward.

The question I have is, is there another biker gang that we will have a chance to join? And how would our choices with this gang impact our chances to get with another gang that we might like better? Also, the MC wishes to meet up with some old buddies on his trip. Will any choice of biker gangs affect those meetings? I was hoping to be able to maintain one route going forward, but, if the developer is able to maintain separate bike-gang threads, that might become impossible. However, in the end, I doubt that any single developer would be able to pull that off.

When do I know that chapter 4 starts? I think i'm either in chapter 2 or 3 right now. There was no obvious transition from one to another? Or is one chapter = one day?

When you and Jessy leave on the road that is the end of episode 3. When you are on the road in the desert, that is the start of episode 4.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from LRH!
The girls are waiting for Santa (Father Frost for the Russian sisters) to bring their presents. Who's been nice and naughty???
Take care and stay safe,

Yo! Just got to this thread and was reading around about some brutal rape scenes in this game. So, as those comments were written many months ago, and some content has been changed, what is the current situation in this game?
Is the rape content just skipped? Is it still happening in the background? I don't think rape is ever a good plot device, so if it's still apart of the game, I'd like to know if I should skip it or not.

THANKS!
