VN Ren'Py Long Story Short - Unofficial Ren'Py Port [v0.9 build 42 Bugfix] [GetOutOfMyLab]

It's not about abandoning characters, it's about balancing content. Of course he's not going to abandon Ann or Vanessa.

I know that bro but people might think that I don't know.
also people (including me) are selfish they want more of the same.

It's like when I'm playing a game and get angry when we see useless side characters instead of main girls.

I can't imagine anyone, unless they have a smol brain, would think TTrick would suddenly abandon two of his main characters. That would be suicide for the game.

Well, selfish people can kindly fuck off, tbh.

I wish devs would say that more often.

I think that abandoning main girls if they no longer serve the story direction the player selects is completely acceptable in the scope of this narrative. As the MC is telling this story, everything started when he met Vanessa and Ann but that doesn't mean that he ends up in a relationship with either of them. Maybe their only importance was to teach him why neither one of them is any good for him as well as to introduce him to the girl who is more suited for him. Like Mary LOL.

fully agree...just be sure to spell Emily right (you wrongly put "mary" there)

btw, talking about "main girls" - vanessa isnt bad, but ann....hell, seeing her being in top2 chicks makes me wonder htf the world has become so screwed up place...then i remember this is the zooone we are talking about

Sure, I'd love nothing more than to send Funko head packing and never see her again in my playthrough. But we were talking about abandoning them completely in the game (no new content), which will never happen.

but this game is in NO risk of crossing that boundary, both of them still have the lion's share of content. Besides, I'm utterly confident people's tastes are congruent with the amount of events available with a given character.

I don't mind Vanessa being a main character - yeah top 2 is a bit of a stretch, but at least she brings entertaining situations and a lively personality to the story/game - it's funkohead my real beef is with.

No way dude abandoning a girl in any avn is a terrible idea. It's like adding unavoidable ntr only a stupid dev would do that.

Aren't (forcing a player to be with specific characters) and (unavoidable ntr) bedfellows, not opposites?

Sure forcing a LI is also stupid that's why I don't touch harem games. But you don't have to bang Ann I don't think.

You don't have to bang her, but iirc you're forced to still be in her loop. Even on the Ann hate path (in retrospect strong word for simply saying "no thank you") - still has many scenes involving her like visiting her house.

How many games do you play where the girls simply disappear if you don't bang them? Because every game I play the girls are still there and you still help them in some way.

 

[Dogorti]

If you built a game around 2 girls I guess it's a little hard to leave them aside completely. As much as some of us would like that.

agreed, although this game has 2 potential exit points, for Ann and Vanessa, for Ann (is it the college, and for Vanessa it could be the mature Customer or simply her parents, send her to a "Menonite" Colony abroad. )

 

[Pr0GamerJohnny]

Not enough, genuinely.

I agree with you, this is very uncommon, and I wish it would be more common as it feels bad to be forced into interactions. Just think about this from the opposite side. How do you feel in something like east block when someone like clem or the mom is constantly trying to get on yoru nuts? Or the non-redhead in chasing sunsets? It gets annoying after awhile.

Great example.

Agree it's annoying but it would be way too much work to completely remove characters from a story perspective and people already cry about update times for these games bro.

I gave up on that sort of thing ages ago.

I think the main point is that you have a extreme heavy workload, just in case someone doesn't like the Main LI's

Yeah though you left out a part of the sentence.

If you built a game around 2 girls (and then made the sidecast characters of your game ridiculously attractive)....

We could have this!

Big tits blonde girls? I see plenty of those around here bro but Ann and Vanessa are unique. Good luck finding a game with a girl like them.
