VN - Others - Long Story Short [v0.9 final] [TTrickGames]

pretty great game. Renders are beautiful, paths for every taste whether it’s love/ corruption/blackmail/ ntr, and they’re all really well done. Vanessa is a really well done character with a great story line. I usually don’t play unity games, but this is a very well made one.

This is a solid game! I don't play too many Unity titles, but I gave this one a shot and I am not disappointed! The renders are beautiful, the animation is great and the storyline flows along nicely.

If I had any quibbles it would be two: The MC is supposed to be a loser who spends an entire year living at home without a job and playing computer games, but after one conversation with his friend is just knee-deep in pussy, despite doing nothing but leave the house. I probably wouldn't notice except the best friend's storyline involves him spending a year working out and changing his life. It's by no-means a big deal breaker, it just was in the back of my mind while I played. The second issue is timing. Things happen too fast. People change their entire lives/outlooks in less than 24 hours in major ways. I think if dev would let a few days/weeks go by between events it would help with the story. But again, this was not a deal breaker.

TL;DR : Play this beautiful game with great animations and solid story!

Started out interesting but completely falls apart.

The idea that to corrupt Ann you need to sexually assault her is disgusting. You don't get enough points to do that path just by words and suggestions you need to force your dick in her mouth and sleep naked and then laugh it off. I'm fine with and in fact loved rape/nonconsent play but the idea that it pushes her down this path when she barely knows you at all is laughable. Corruption should be a slow burn not face raping a girl you've known for two days.

And even the corruption path itself is disgusting and just lame. A corruption path should be about a sexual corruption and it should be about her finding herself and exploring her sexuality. Not her changing her entire personality and changing her entire life so that she goes in one week from wanting to be a doctor to wanting to do porn. Jesus christ dude. Make the acting plotline part of the sharing/ntr path not the corruption path.

Only redeeming thing about this is the renders and character models are good. But even then the lewd scenes fall apart because their like 3 frames max. The outdoor sex was pants down ->penetration ->ejaculation. I'm fine with no animations but jesus add some extra renders there or just loop them a few times.

The writing problems are so baked into the story that I doubt any future updates will fix it so for me at least I wouldn't recommend playing or following this novel.

A excellent game, look really realistic with textures in the skin's model, no like others games where the model look equal and doll's skin , a good interface , a excellent phone's interactions with social media , good story and diverse with many different decisions with repercussion, avoidable ntr ,
a really good game

All I can really say from the jump is: WOW!
I generally don't play games in unity, mainly because how the games are structured, but holy shit!
Long Story Short is one of very few games on here that are the 1, 2, 3 punch of amazing writing, amazing dialog and amazing renders.
It is also a rare occasion that the moment I play a game here on F95, I immediately start supporting the developer! Great work Kamo! Looking forward to all your work.

[As of v0.7a1 ]


The Good:
- Good Render
- Girls are nice
- Choice matters
- Lewd Scenes are alright


The Bad:
- Not sure what the story is about
- Lewd Scenes are too short
- Not enough animation
- For some reason i cannot scroll up for previous shot & choices


Conclusion:
A short but replayable game (to unlock scenes/path).
Could be a great game if there are more animation and longer lewd scenes.
The Girls are nice, don't waste such potential.
3.5/5.

Game had a ton of hype. Id browse the forum and see all the signatures. For months Id see the Unity Engine and the gorgeous renders and say PASS. Mainly because for whatever reason its rare for a game with awesome renders to get to the good stuff. Its normally a ton of groping and non-sensical cock teasing you have to skip through just to get a handjob scene. Well, this game delivers. For the most part...

PROS
- Every girl in this game is a hottie and while thats not very immersive WHO CARES its porn. They dev has somehow managed to achieve this youthful look and personality with the girls without them looking like photoshopped minors which for me would be an immediate turn-off. They are all cute with well developed sexy bodies. Petite woman porn the right way. Bubble butts, curvaceous hips, some even with huge tits but not in a comical way.
- Smooth sex scenes and the abundance of sex scenes
- Lead up to the sex scenes
- Dialogue in the Sex scenes
- Getting to bang the best girls in the sex scenes as opposed to filler side characters like other games would do.
- Bimbofication/Corruption
- MC is not the only penis in the universe. You have the sharing option but its completely your choice as it should be.
- Vanessa is such a fun sexy little slut
- Sneaky sex. The best kind of NTR there is
- Competing for the girls and if you dont take care of them or treat them badly they find someone else
- No wrong choice or Game Over scene
- Made me give Unity a chance after many failed attempts previously. Not as bad as RPGM and a ton of the features in this game are cloned directly from RenPy which is smart.
- Best 3-way on this site ever. Done perfectly. The one involving a camera and a drunk buddy. Mouth inadvertently comes so close to the penis...Other guy doesnt seem to notice. Absolutely brilliant writing.

CONS
- All of the stupid sandbox point and click moments. Needs to be even more skippable then it already is
- Unity. As mentioned before it works but there is no rollback feature and only recently we got a skip feature
- Creepy date rape drugging element in one scene
- Pacing is not a snail pace by any means but definitely can speed up a bit for my taste. Alot of girls are being introduced and teased but the plot is basically friends hanging out and banging out. Typical horny college-esqe kids screwing like rabbits. We need more screwing especially at this point in the development cycle (A year plus as of this review). Cant wait for a prospect of Super Slutty version of Ana and Vanessa getting banged in front of Joey.

Unity and RPGM sucks but give this game a try. Breaks all of the typical tropes that you get from other games with stellar renders and also runs surprisingly well on a crappy engine.

This is an excellent offering worth checking out. My only criticism is the routes get pretty convoluted to the point where they might be better as separate games. It's like the developer is making 4+ stories at once and that's obviously going to make it take a lot longer to produce.

English is not my first language, I will try to minimize grammatical mistakes.
This game is so great that I contribute my first review on f95zone. I think this game does a great job in the following content:

• The UI design of the game is excellent, it looks like some great AAA games
• The design of ntr elements is very clever, you can choose active or passive, depending on your choice , which gives people a great mental excitement. (I LOVE NTR !!!)
• The 3D modeling of the characters is very delicate, although there is some uncoordinated movement in the animation
• Fuck a friend's slut girlfriend? Who can resist such thing!

Exceptional writing and CGs. Great corruption (especially the Ann path) with lots of routes. There isn't much to criticize here. Also, the latest update (v0.7a1) is fire. Definitely deserving of love on Patreon.

Long story short, I'm bored.

The developper obviously worked very hard on it but it's not for me.

Sure the UI is exceptionnal and very unique but that's not why I play those game. It's a nice bonus but that's all this is, a bonus.

Characters are also unique but unfortunately, they aren't attractive. They are very well done, don't get me wrong, it's just that the 2 girls I saw so far aren't very pretty. And I have to chose between them?
The girl in the menu is a beauty but she didn't appear in the story when I stopped playing.

The story is bland. And for a game, the story is important. It has to be EXCITING even if it isn't Shakespear. Make the MC go to college, have an interesting job or something. Him being a shut-in who meets new people doesn't make me want to know more.

Best ui ever seven for an amdroid and linux player i love the ui in yhis game and excellent graphich of characters made the game better and a Good storyline so much better than the most played games if there will be more content with Alex it would be perfect krep working bud

Good porn games embed sex into fairly basic but still engaging narratives, without simultaneously forcing me to pay separate attention to the story itself. 'Long Story Short' does that exceptionally well. You flirt with girls without sounding like an incel, they flirt back, you do stuff together... sex.

You play as a shut-in 18 yo gamer whose best buddy and former shut-in-gamer-in-arms reconnects after a year of amicable estrangement. He then offers to introduce the pc to the new life he has created for himself after getting in shape and going out more during the past year. An offer the pc gladly accepts because said new life includes dating, fucking and even managing the e-girl careers of hot chicks.

There are multiple 'routes' that you can take but all of them (that I've explored so far) include multiple sex scenes following fairly straightforward young adult courtship and (optionally) reciprocal wingmanship.

On to the graphics: they are among the best I've seen. The models are gorgeous and the animations during sex scenes smooth and natural. Even our hero's penis looks realistic which is rare among porno games. The lighting in some scenes is on the drab side but overall very appropriate. The main fetish here is exhibitionism and sharing/swinging, and the part of the plot dealing with YA girls trying to launch their acting/modelling/e-girl careers is the perfect framework for exploring that.

There is no walkthrough mod, but it isn't necessary. There is a pdf walkthrough that explains what the various routes/paths are and what the choices mean and that's all I needed to finish the available content.

An easy 5/5 for me.

Quite short, but extremely polished UI and gameplay, clearly built for multiple playthroughs, (not necessarily a fan of that on my part), with high quality renders and characters, plus choices you make have actual importance. The writing is nothing special but it is still enjoyable, and as a whole it absolutely recommended.

Really great game.

Good:

• The Characters are believable and interesting. The way they are posed is also really well done compared to other games. The girls are all hot especially Ann and Vanessa.
• Excellent Writing
• Great renders and animations
• Nice UI

Not so good:

• Was expecting more content for a 0.7 release.

This is a really great game. I was hesitant to try it out at first since it's in unity, but boy the UI is so clean. This has become one of my favourite games on here so far. Great graphics, cute girls, choices that have a lot of impact which makes you wanna try every scenario. I'm very eager to find out how the story is going to progress.

I'm not gonna list all reasons I like this game cause it's gonna be a wall of text. I'm just gonna say that I checks all the boxes of an awesome game. Great renders, great story, and numerous different outcome depending on the choices you make.

Choices made drastically affect the story, and the art is very nice. I like that you can play the game several ways, making for radically different outcomes. Pleasant surprise, the characters aren't psychopathic monsters who consider gang rape as common as a handshake. There's a few moments where the choices offered are all bad; apparently you MUST put up with Vanessa's crap to advance the story. OTOH, there's a couple genuinely funny moments as well.

Pros: Renders are great

Cons: Story is slow, a lot of teasing of additional love interests which are undeveloped.

Well done renders and an interesting framing for an overall narrative, however if you don't find the innocence of Ann or the sluttiness of Vanessa appealing there is nothing else for you in this game. A lot of other women are teased (Alex, Jenny, Emily) but nothing happens with them as Ann and Vanessa are the priority. Even if you decide not to date Ann the MC/Player is stuck with awkwardly hanging out with her while she talks about her boyfriend.
As to the NTR content, I find the idea that it is even NTR debatable. If the Player doesn't find Ann interesting then they shouldn't feel jealous that she ends up dating Chris the bartender. Vanessa, as she is the "girlfriend" of the MC's best friend, fucks everything that is male and has a pulse so if the player gets jealous of her fucking other men they should have been aware prior to getting involved with her.
I wish the developers the best but the game hasn't advanced the story very far, spending too much time on the same two LI and, now, remaking part of the previous content.

Amazing renders. Great story. For Unity, it has a very clean interface and is very useable.

Only suggestion would be to make it so you can back out of Save menu if you accidently re-enter the save interface. Workaround is to re-save.

I'm looking forward to see where this one goes!
