Ren'Py Lustful Desires [v0.83.0 G] [Hyao]

[Lorenh80]

To be fair, I wouldn't use the word "Stall".
Sure this project struggled a great deal for the past year, but from what I gathered, Hyao is actively trying to make it work again.
His patreon schedule was still fairly reasonable - especially if you compare to a lot of other projects.
And it seems he found a solution for the arts - using two artist for different contents, on top of the plan to move forward - continue on northcrest.
Not putting high hope on it yet, but I'm interested in what would happen to LD in 2023.

BTW, the "Lizard bad end route" is fairly dead. I'd rather Hyao focus on progression even if it's liner, instead of stretch thin on different branches / scenarios just for the sake of giving fake sense of "freedom".
Project scale oversight happens quite often, what matters is how you deal with it.

don't get me wrong I never said that the author doesn't put effort into it or that he's cheating people by stealing their patreon money, mine was mainly a technical evaluation. As I said I consider this, one if not the best game on this forum, but I'd like the author to brainstorm and come up with updates that make more sense, and not just because he feels compelled to post something every single month.

IMO it needs better project management, than brainstorm - we already have way more plot-holes than the dev can handle at this point. It lost direction, And what Hyao had tried last year apparently not working.
Let's hope they can do better this year.
Played the latest version (V0.5) and it reminds me how well Hyao can write - one of the main reason this game is held high regard - will really be a shame if such talents turn naught.

Yes I meant that.. I'm Italian, so I use google translate and then I try to correct here and there, but some "way of saying" may come out not exactly correct .

How do I give gifts to Logan?
I would also like to ask how to start the logan event at the tavern? because I've been trying to enter and exit the tavern at different times for a while but nothing happens

pls help

 

[Spindle97]

Guys in the Northcrest conspiracy quest I can't find Korg. I mean I saved him and talked to him before (all the cgi scenes unlocked with him, but never continued the quest), but now I can't find him anymore. He appears in my house at 2:00AM but i can't talk to him. tried waking up at 6AM or visiting my house at 8PM but nothing. Maybe he is somewhere else?

You have to complete the road to Ste's farm in addition to the other steps mentioned in the journal. The tavern event will not trigger if you already have 2 hearts with Logan from completing further steps of his quest.

It's kinda kinda generic art, but decent...

Here we have a brave knight named Victor. Important for the NC plot.
Please don't lewd him. He's not to be lewded.

Lol. Now I can't unseen your comment. Almost like they just pick random parts and stick together
The helmeted version seems alright, but it's just a generic armoured knight you can see everywhere
Not to mention the urethra of the Sword is weirdly wide

Looks like somebody just glued a pair of legs to his upper torso. Where the heck is the lower body part? Also the right leg looks broken af with that weird knee position. =]]]]]]

Hello guys, could you help me figure it out. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug? I completed the werewolf event, but it says that I didn't meet Logan at my house. (20:00 and 03:00), I decided to load the old safe before the event and waited for it, but it never came. In the end, nothing has changed. I apologize for my English, unfortunately come to use the translator.

You have to do his events in a certain order.
The Bareshade expansion and the road the the farm has to be completed BEFORE you finish the wolfquestline.

Thank fuck the main conflict is being updated. Super beastman island was cool and all but we've been wanting the northcrest/orc situations to be progressed for well a little under a year now.

 

[jastranger]

Figured I'd share the delay announcement for anybody wondering about it.

The release date for the update 0.51 was 5th February. Unfortunately I will have to delay it for a couple of days.
The reason behind it is... it being large.
I already have around 30k words, but not everything is finished yet. Because of how this update is constructed there is also no way to postpone part of it content for later, it's mostly one huge event with plenty of stuff going on. There is also much more coding involved as there's plenty of the mechanic in this one.
I really don't like the idea of delaying the update. Especially after I just changed the schedule. I didn't think it will grow... so much. Nevertheless, I apologize for it.
For those who are impatient and want to see what there is in store, you can check the link bellow to see the patch notes. I don't put them in here in case some people wouldn't want to have any spoilers.
- Expect some spoilers
I hope the wait will be all worth it for you.

I edited the link to point to the post here with the patch notes.
