VN Ren'Py Long Road Home [Ep.15] [OBDGames]

[HiHaHo]

a quick question for Dimitri57

as far as i remember the next update will finish the current chapter(arc?) and will be the last
do you think have the same amount off content planned for it as the last couple off updates?
or do you think it will be more/less?

 

[Kaos_Theory]

The main story ultimately determines most of the interactions that MC has with the girls. For example, Larisa has never been a high vote getter, but she had a major scene last update because of the way the story is unfolding.

I use the polls to get the pulse of the folks about what girls they like. The side events are flexible. I use them to give some attention to a high vote getting girl.

The other times I've polled, it's been on things that I don't have a strong preference for one way or the other. (Like the Fox Box uniforms).

The Devs that use polls to guide the story lack vision where they wanted to take the story to begin with. That's also why many turn their games into a sandbox once they've run out of ideas.

I have it on good authority, (My Ol 'lady) that I'm a stubborn SOB. I've never been one to stick my finger in the air to guide me which way to go. I'll listen to suggestions and have adopted the ones I like. But in the end, I'm going to follow my vision.

RFFR,
Dima

I'll say this for ya, You are a straight shooter, and that is a rarity these days, Keep on being yourself because we need more devs who aren't afraid to stand by their choices and tell others what's what. That's why everyone who comes here stays here. Don't ever let anyone change your vision past what you would change yourself, that's why we all keep travelling on the "Long Road Home"

 

[Dimitri57]

To be honest, I just replayed through the first chapter again and I gotta say, the first renders are holding up pretty good, only noticeable things I've caught as different from the more progressed/experienced worked on later down the story is positioning, angles and whatnot, but even lighting holds up pretty good.

Thanks. I don't plan to redo everything. Mainly the ones that are grainy or the lighting is blown out.

Updated andriod anywhere

It will be larger than the last.

It will be the conclusion of the First Chapter, but the Story will continue on in Chapter two.
The Rouges will be faced with organizational changes and MC will reach a milestone at the end of Chapter one.
It is a logical place to begin the next chapter.

Also, there needs to be a clean break between chapters to get the game download size back down to a manageable size.

thanks man
i was curious about it so could gauge a possible development time (which i now guess at 4-6 months for 10.1 part 3)

i remember some things you mention earlier so already kinda guessed it'd be the same or more then last few updates
hope you did manage to figure out how to carry save files over or reached out to someone whit eperience(and they agreed to help to) as you mentioned before that might be a project for you

I thought my mind was twisted, but it's too much for me, I'll pass.

Thanks for your concern SMARTY

yes there is a an ending if you play this game however i think no one here is into that ending i have a death wish i am so going on someones wife or daughter they are both too good to pass up and one day later you died since that one can really throw knifes.

1 rogue asked mc to take care of his wife while he's in jail, did that include having sex with her is unknown.

 

[Bryan_Colt]

dude keep up i was talking about her, unless you do not like her, if i get the choice to get the guy out of jail i would do it for Candy if i do not Candy is mine it is that simple.


the one in the spoiler is the death wish, also i blame the developer for making her so nice.

Haven't you heard? Dima said we'd share Mara with Sluggo!

It's all right.
In fact I didn't even understand what you were talking about.
The game in itself?
A part of the game ?

1 rogue asked mc to take care of his wife while he's in jail, did that include having sex with her is unknown.

I mean, Jay did tell the MC to step up to the plate and take care of his ol' lady, anything she needs and she also brought the subject over to Dee, asking if it was really alright to do that while her husband is in jail, so yeah, figuratively speaking, you can only deduct that this was said/written in the letter Candi read.

But we weren't talking about Candi, we were talking about Marah... Sluggo's wife, and he ain't in jail, which is why it's the death wish we're referring to.

 

[Bryan_Colt]

i do not hear i play and see so until i see it i am not going to believe it, such is my nature.

 

[Dimitri57]

Fixed. Thanks cxx.

I just noticed in the opening scene's when Tracy was driving the MC to her house that were mountains in the background in Kansas . Kansas is so flat you can stand a six pack of beer and see for 100 miles.

But great game Dev. Thanks.

Dima, did you plan on having tattoos on the character before or is this a bug? 'Cause I'd love to see him with more tattoos, specially neck, chest and hand tattoos but I don't know if we'll get to that stage.

Also, do you plan on adding more ride contents in the future? Like taking Nikki (if you accepted her as ol'lady) to a lake or something, just taking a ride like a small trip or whatever. I'd love to see more of the mundane stuff like maybe riding out and catching rain, so they'd have to stop the bike and wrap themselves in a blanket on the side of the road for the night, that could cause some good interactions, or maybe the ol' Elvira giving him troubles in the road and he needing to stop and fix it, I don't know, I guess some Dave Mann arts are just inspiring me with these ideas.

i think that's flashback before he got tattoos.

 

[comte bonfim]

Yeah, that's one of the first renders you see from our PC, and I saw the tattoo's on his hand, pulse, that's why I'm asking Dima if he planned on having tattoos on our player character before he changed his mind or something, that'd be awesome.
