I think he's just bored of WoW's theme in general and wants to do something new but:
  • Not wanting to build everything from the ground up again
  • Not wanting to detach from the already well-known Lust for Adventure title
Personally, I want some more innovations with the combat system, it's a part that is hugely unexplored imo.

However, it's his game after all and he can do what he wants. I'm not gonna lose any sleep over it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You can easily just look the answers up since all the questions are about World of Warcraft
You can also just kinda guess. There's 1 correct answer, 1 horny answer, and 1 obviously wrong answer.'

Also the rest of the year dedicated to this, jeez. I know I'm not paying for this, but I really don't understand how this is the future of development. It's like early 2000s Newgrounds dating sim tier, but worse. You just do the same task over and over again until it spits out porn.

Which is what we've already been doing, so the solution to freshen it up is to....make it grindier? I guess if the paying patrons are happy I don't have a leg to stand on, but I just don't get it.

I didn't pay any attention to the history classes... and then that test took me by surprise. Of course, I don't touch a warcraft game since Warcraft III and I failed miserably :ROFLMAO:

I really, really hope that this content turns on big time the dev (I can relate. I have a kink with prison/police content, and I'm not even sure that my players will even touch it lol), because I really doubt this content would win any polls, even among gays.

But bah, I won't lie. If I could become a patreon for this game, I would.

This game may have fallen into the trap of polls. I'm glad for Sonpih because they're able to make a decent amount of money for their game (patrons feel like they have a say in the development of the game). Are patreon polls strictly scene-related or are they about gameplay as well ? It looks like it's harming the game in a game design perspective. The issue is that any game needs a clear direction for the start.


I've been following this game for a while, and it had kind of a direction in its early stages : a RPG inspired by CoC in the universe of Warcraft. It had "lore-friendly" content (cause its a parody so of course it's not 100% lore-friendly) and a simple but efficient gameplay: turn-based combat with lewd scenes if you lose or defeat an enemy with lewd.

Then Sonpih started adding very diverse minigames (Brothel, strip game, mansion, beach volley, contest in Karazhan etc.) and the combat didn't get any improvement aside from new enemies (that have maximum 3 scenes when the older enemies all had 4).Now we get Redridge Academy which is kind of a... visual novel ? What the fuck is this game's genre exactly ? It looks like it's trying to be everything at once. This game clearly suffers from feature creep, and although it's technically a sandbox, it doesn't turn out very good most of the time.

On a brighter side, the scenes are great, the models are good, and the writing is decent. It's why I've been so involved with that game aside from being a WoW fan.

Also, what's the point of setting the game in the Warcraft universe if you're planning to do things that tie poorly to said universe ? You've defeated one of the most powerful characters of Warcraft in Stranglethorn (Hakkar, which is literally a demi-god) to be bullied in a fucking school by mere humans and act like a teenager in high school. It makes zero sense.

I will not discuss the lewd content or M/M because it's perfectly fine to have gay oriented games (although I clearly prefer straight scenes and I'm disappointed about the lack of female content).

What's BAD about it is the fact that Sonpih is locking out people of 6 PATCHES OF CONTENT (Redridge Academy is male only) because of a decision they made at the beginning of the game and they can't change at any point (gender).
There’s no poll on sonpih at all I know that cause I’m his Patreon member and I look on his post at all time there’s never a single on of polls at all so yes I do agree with you that Sonpih should add a balance of scenes(Straight,lesbian,Bisexual,Gay,etc) but don’t put the blame on us Patreon members please and thank you

He's gay, he prefers creating gay shit, I don't get how it's still a topic here.
I mean ask a straight content creator to add gay content and see how they react. (It isn't pleasant)
Lol that's true. I've seen firsthand when someone asked a straight content creator (who I won't name) about adding gay content for the LGBTQIA+ back then, and the remark he made about it...was not pretty lol. I can't post about what was said because I don't want to spark a scene about his remark that would offend anyone as homophobic which in his defense he's not. A straight guy can't relate nor want to make gay content, and a gay content creator can't relate or want to make straight content either. As for the dev of this game, for the longest of time I've always assumed he was at least a bisexual content creator. But given the fact that he enjoys making gay content, loves men fucking men, and love cock over pussy, therefore he must be gay. 100% gay at that.

I just downloaded this game and I gotta say, I don't think the two people you quoted are wrong NOR right.

If I'm looking for gay content and a straight content creator provides it as part of their game, but then stop providing such content and focus on stright only, I'll get pissed, specially if I was a patron of theirs. It's simple logic; I joined your game for gay content, you provided it until you had an apparent change of heart, BUT I DID join you cause I liked the content YOU ALREADY PROVIDED of this kind, so I see nothing wrong with asking you to provide me with more gay content or then your mom can keep supporting you if you want to.

This is just the same, but in reverse to the example I used.


PS: The game's previews doesn't do it any favours; Change the pics and show character personalization with the appropiate art changing along with it.

No, the two of them are actually right for the facts they stated about the creator who prefers to create gay content so therefore he is gay. What you can say is that the game is heading in a direction that isn't right for YOU. I understand being disappointed that the game is no longer going in a direction that you prefer but that's just how game development is. The dev has come to a place where they feel more comfortable making the content that they actually enjoy and I applaud him for it.

You can come to this forum and make your complaints about it but Honey....you're just stating the same spiel that all the cishets here have repeated time and time again. It's best to just accept the facts that the game is no longer for you and simply move on.

I mean, it's the same with CoC2 and TiTs.

Both have great content for everybody, gay/bi/straight, etc. Most writers are openly bi/straight. But honestly, the exclusively gay content both have it's... really small and/or kinda flavorless. It's all straight content, with lots and I say LOTS of futa.

Which... I don't think I need to say most gay guys won't really enjoy. I surely don't. I can't blame them though, if they aren't all that attracted to M/M or don't find the inspiration to do that kind of content in their game, well, it's sucks but it is what it is.

If Lust for Adventure started as a game with straight/gay content but decided to focus more on gay content. You can't really blame the devs for it, as other games did this either for survival or because they've found a spot comfortable enough to keep working and developing.

Edit: Also, if you supported the game for a specific kind of content and it's not getting follow ups... Well I guess you're allowed to feel disappointed, but I can't say much because I never donated to a game/VN. So, idk.

Stop with your bias.

I literally just downloaded the game, I stated it in my post.

My point here is, if I was a supporter(I clearly ain't cause I just found the game, but I'll have you know I support all the projects I like the most up to a certain budget I can afford), I would be pissed that this game that started with equal content for all tastes shifted to a only gay content spectrum.

I applaud them if they found their niche, but not only will they lose a big amount of people supporting them because of this sudden shift, but they will earn a well-deserved banther from people who supported them for the content they delivered and then shifted their gears just because. They could have made mixed content in this game, and once it's over, make a full gay content game, but no, they took a half-half game and they are just making gay content.

Good for them if that's what they like, but I won't condone you or anyone else half-assing others just because they complain about the shift in the developer's decission in a game THAT IS SUPOSED TO BE HALF HALF.

WHO TOLD YOU THAT?


Also, although it's not your concern nor relevant here since we are pirates,
But they are not "Losing support" cuz they find what's best for their game, in contrast, they weed out so called "supports" that'll negatively impact the development since those are looking for different things.
Remember, Patreon is for "supporting the development of a project", not "Buying products that you want".

Then you should know that this trend is not new, it's been happening since more than a year ago, the straight and lesbian contents were diminishing GREATLY. If you're straight, and you have been a patreon until this update, man, what a waste of money.

I do agree it was distasteful, normally I wouldn't exclude an entire gender for an update (not a sexuality though. I dunno if anyone noticed, but there is a female teacher in one of the updates, so we can guess there will be some straight content IN the academy). The dev never promised a fully bi game, a straight or even a 100% gay game, he just do what he pleases on the updates. Some devs do promise certain quantity of content, but most doesn't.

They could have made mixed content in this game, and once it's over, make a full gay content game, but no, they took a half-half game and they are just making gay content.
There are no rules written on a stone table that dictates a dev should do that. Devs will do whatever they want. Of course, we must deal with the consequences too.

in a game THAT IS SUPOSED TO BE HALF HALF.
Read again the description in Patreon, and tell me if he's stating that the game will be always 100% bi and equal for both genders (or races. I'm still bitter he didn't include orcs as a race for the MC). But I'll quote him:

These are the sexual themes of the game for now:
  • Male/Female
  • Male/Male
  • Female/Female
  • Furry (worgen, etc)
He never stated how much content there would be. I'm not going full-karen on the threads of CoC or Tits because the gay content there is minimal. I just moved on and ignored those games. You can do that with this one, now that you know the balance of content.

WHO TOLD YOU THAT?
First time to feel excluded because of your sexuality? You get use to it :KEK:
No one told me that; But it's what it looks to be.

Here's a fact, since your hate-boner can't let you think well enough by reading this phrase;
I'm a new person and I played the game for about an hour, exploring stuff. To me, it seemed like a good half-half so far.

If the game's sending me these signals as a new player that tested the game for a bit, then it should specify it's mostly gay content with some extras MF and FF to give it flavour.

PS: Just because you feel excluded because of your gender doesn't mean everyone else needs to make fun out of you for it. Whoever hurt you, go for them, but if you try to take a nab at me from it, you're gonna make yourself look like a fool for that, cause I don't mind gay content at all, I'm just defending the fact that I feel like it's a 50/50 with about an hour played so I feel like the game deceives people with it's content. I like both, but I lean more towards female. Personal preference. Can you understand that, or is your hate boner too big because "you won"? (You didn't, there's nothing to win or lose here)

He never stated how much content there would be. I'm not going full-karen on the threads of CoC or Tits because the gay content there is minimal. I just moved on and ignored those games. You can do that with this one, now that you know the balance of content.
I would hardly consider anything I said Karen-y, in fact, all the Karening I've seen in this post thus far is people raging me because I don't support their idea.
I DO thank you for being polite in your post and I wish everyone else was like you, but as you can see from the commentor I'm quoting above you, that's not possible.

And yes, what you said at the beggining is my whole point; If I supported this cause I liked the straight content, that's a waste of money, and it's distasteful on the developer's part to do this without notice.

I do understand your point, and this situation really sucks. I know this, because this happens to us all the time. A game starts off with some reasonable amount of gay content (almost never as much as the straight content), and then the gay content so often gets abandoned or thrown a pity update once a year. It's never a nice situation to be in. LfA is one of the few games where it's actually the straight content that gets abandoned. Of course this makes it "better" for us gay guys, and straight girls who like gay games, but it sucks for the straight players. So I do understand that you're frustrated and unhappy, it's totally reasonable to feel that way.

I have to say the pattern is kinda funny.
> Be MLM
> Be Upset re lack of MLM content in adult text based games
> Be told to move on, MLM content just isn't popular enough
> MLM focused games ( Lust for Adventure, Lustful Desires etc.) comes out
> MLW " I am upset it is not for us"

While if that pattern was true it would be kinda funny, that's not the pattern here.

What a shit update. I may be done with this game, even for free. Followed the game since westfall was added and was a patron for a long while, but the content over the last year is just...bad. I don't mean the gay focus, that's fine, but if you're going to make it gay-only then add some good top and bottom options the each scene. Really tired of my character just getting dominated and especially getting humiliated in most sex scenes, even the ones where I win. Newest update has you cycling through text where your only choice is to continue getting sucker punched and humiliated and eventually pissed on or alt+F4. Really?! Stranglethorn was mostly good, but too many updates have focused on the brothel or the crossever human jock character, and now the hogwarts update where you're a demon-slaying gnoll-hunting undead-smashing hero...who can't stop a human teenager from punching you in the gut and pissing in your mouth.

I don't care that the creator wants to focus on gay content, but focusing solely on his humiliation fetish isn't sexy and it isn't fun
