VN Ren'Py My Dorm [v0.18.2 P2 Ch.6] [Tropecita Games]

[d_pedestrian]

No one is forcing you to. you can just say no to her and be done with it and focus on the other girls.

I know that I can reject her but the whole conversation was about why I didn't like that dialogue.

to show the MC as an open-minded guy

Well, not everyone can be as open minded as MC. Hell, I'll not be enough open minded for some people if I don't share my girl with other men. So, MC is more open minded than me if these information doesn't bother him.

in any way

Fulfilled in any way. Minutes after that they went to toilet to have sex. What do you want me to make out of that dialogue?

I must be a cuckold if my wife had explained her past relationships to me.

You won't be a cuckold if your wife explained it but if you asked for it and enjoyed listening to that I have a bad news for you (or good ). Since this game is made for our pleasure and this dialogue doesn't turn on the target audience why does this dialogue exist in the first place?

I know Martha and Norah ain't virgins but i don't want to know how many they fucked before.

When your partner is your best friend, at least here, you want to know everything about her and there are no secrets.

With your friend..maybe? Not with a partner though. With a friend you can hear and laugh it out. I know there are some partners who like to share such infos with each other but those couple are not very common i guess. Many prefer to keep it inside them.

At no point does she claim to be proud of it

She don't have to say it literally that she was proud of it. Her actions were enough.

At no time does she say that she had a relationship with any of them, or that she had sex with all of them, only that she dated them.

Again, the sentence was "fulfilled in any way". What do you want me to make out of it?

Also she doesn't seem like the girl who wouldn't have sex with men she dated. On the contrary she seems like the one who had flings given how open minded she is.

I have never regretted dating any of them, since my experiences as a whole (with them included) have brought me to where I am.

Well, I do. The relationships are meant to be serious. I won't go deep into personal details. You get what I mean. If a relationship doesn't work i regret giving it my all. I've given all of my to a relationship which won't mean shit. This is my approach.

I know there are people who see relationships as a way to have sexual relations (Not saying you are one of them) and it's completely fine as long as it's done with consent. Such relationships aren't to be regretted because you knew beforehand what's to come.

Does Eileen seem like the serious types? No. So it's obvious she's not regretting since she was in those relationships for sex. Nothing's wrong with that though, it's just that some people might not like her for that and I hope you can understand their point of view too.

So, I'm sorry for not liking Eileen.

 

[Sin_Mechero]

About Eileen, I think the problem is a mix of all the things you, @goulet1995, and @d_pedestrian point out (wording and timing) with cultural things added to the mix.
The idea with that conversation was to show the MC as an open-minded guy who just told Eileen a minute before he has been dating other girls after the breakup, he even tells her he had a friend with benefits, so it would be hypocritical for him to mind Eileen telling him about her dating other guys. They were a friends-first/lovers-second couple and they don't need to keep secrets. Eileen hasn't been a nun, the same as the MC, and she doesn't need to hide it from her best friend.
The controversial sentence is

The ellipsis and the "in any way" part were precisely there to make it clear that she referred to an emotional form to be fulfilled. I guess the wording wasn't right and now it doesn't make much sense to retcon it.
Also, about the cultural thing, in another thread someone said I must be a cuckold if my wife had explained her past relationships to me. When your partner is your best friend, at least here, you want to know everything about her and there are no secrets.
I wouldn't consider my wife a slut under any circumstances for explaining it to me, nor consider me a cuckold for wanting to know everything about her.

I have no problem with what Eileen has done when she wasn't with the Mc. Accepting her or not is up to each one. In my opinion, she might annoy some people because it's the first thing she says to you once you start on her path. Perhaps if you put that conversation before accepting her, so whoever does not accept what she has done, could reject her and continue playing.

I lied to you again, but this time I am sorry (at least in part). Even Norah is mad at me.
I told you that I would try to publish the game this week, but it has been impossible. The last 36 renders are being done right now (no Sundays off for developers who mess up) so I won't be able to post it today. The betatesters already have the game with the preview images so they can go ahead in their tests, so I hope to be able to publish it between tomorrow and Tuesday. The game is already translated and I just need to add sound to some scenes (and correct the bugs detected by the betatesters).
This is the part I regret having lied to you.
The parts I don't regret lying about:
Again I went over 300 renders (one of these days I'll have to delete that part of my initial post). In this update there will be 1,199 (more than in any other update). In the last progress report I said there would be between 1,050 and 1,300, so I've stayed within the range. The total for 0.7 (adding 0.7A and 0.7B) is 1,542 renders. If someone wants my address to send the torches and pitchforks, so he can arrive rested to quarter me, ask me by DM. I will reserve a locker for the dev destruction weapons.
In the last progress report I told you there would be 8-12,000 words and.... again I've gone too far. 16,298 in English and 15,347 in Spanish. When Emma or Simone start talking they never shut up! The total for 0.7 will be 26,305 in English and 24,886 in Spanish (again, more than ever). I always punish English speakers to read more. Just kidding. Spanish is a language that needs fewer words to say the same thing. I have a special closet to store the weapons of those of you who don't want to read too much.
After all my nonsense, what really matters to you:
Publication Dates (it's possible it will be moved up or delayed a day):
Martha's savior: November 8
Norah's favorite: November 12
Emma's own: November 15
Daphne's teacher: November 18
Erika's knight in shining armor: November 21
Scarlett's first love: November 24
Norah (if you did the dishes on Sunday before the Matrix scene), Megan, Simone, Emma (if you're on her route), and an unexpected character are looking forward to seeing you.
Enjoy your Sunday, I will continue rendering!

Ya its just the wording i get the intention but saying "fulfilled... in anyway" doesn't come off as an emotional thing cosnidering its a toilet fuck scene right after.. the coronations make the whole sentences come off as shes all about the sex and not really the person. the scene doesn't bother me all the much just trying to explain how it came off as

And yes im the same i do want to know everything about partner. BUT there is a time and place for such questions. and for me before sex is not the time Lol

There's a sentence in your post that made me laugh (in a good sense, no offense intended): I have never meet a 100% straight female in my life ever agree to an MFF threesome of their frown ee will
How many girls have you met agreeing to a harem of their own free will?

That depends are we including "umbrella" of polyamorous relationships? or the strict Harem term of "Only MC gets action no one else period and even not between harem members"?
if the former lots i'm currently in a polyamorous relationship myself and i know tons of others are too (it's quite common here) if we are talking the very strict sense of harem (that this game doesn't follow either that much) two Lol

Probably another "cultural" thing Lol

there are things i dont like about every game ive ever played, ive never complained about them because im the game dev, i mostly pirate everything i play as i have no money to spare, no one cares what anyone elses opinion is, even if they say they do, they really dont

I can't say I'm the dev who cares the most about anyone else's opinion. It would be a chaotic game because there are opposing opinions (NTR/No-NTR, Trans/No-Trans, etc).
I've said repeatedly that I'm new in this world and I have a lot to learn, and the best way of learning is by listening to what the community has to say. For example, there was one character meant to be a side chick, and she will become a full-fledged character because the community asked for it and because doing so doesn't derail or dilute the story.
BTW, you don't play a pirated My Dorm, unless you get it in a leak, as I give it for free. You have as much right to complain as anyone else, and any criticism, if it is made with respect and politeness, is welcome.

theres a difference between listening and caring, you can listen to an opinion but not care about it

 

[TropecitaGames]

Totally agree with you here. As I said, it's impossible to care for everyone's opininion as there are a lot of opposing opinions.
Edit: I'll reword it: You can care about everyone's opinion, but it's impossible to address all of them as there are a lot of opposing oppinions.

one of the biggest reasons i never complain about something in a game, even though i may not like it, is i can usually see the reason why the dev did said thing, so i dont feel compelled to say anything about it

 

[Shawnchapp]

no one cares what anyone elses opinion is, even if they say they do, they really dont

Thats not true, take for example these games if a dev flat outdoesn't care about anyones opinion and make a game no one wants to play well they get abandon there tons of games you can find on this site alone where devs pretty much said "i don't care about your opinions i do what i wanna do" and said devs no long make games becuasse they lost their support becuase of it because they refused to take in people opinions/constructive criticism and it lead to just a bad game

You don't have to listen to everyone opinion but you do need to actually take in peoples constructive criticism if you do want a a successful product.

You don't have to accept all the criticism because I know a certain person who, if he passes by here, will say there is no NTR, well, shit. And that genre was fine but 4 years ago now most people don't search for that genre anymore.

By the way I'm trying to make a good animated gif of this game but my photoshot to date today doesn't work , after dinner I'll try if not...well I'll make a gif but only changing images. With the four twins

"You don't have to accept all the criticism"

of course not, but you can't ignore it all either Lol


i haven't used photoshop in years i use photoflitre (its free and has some good features)

Don't you dare speak about oppinnions!

 

[myukimo]

An error appears about the size of the animation file, making an animation of 75x30 size is breaking my head. The file is already saved but the problem is making it work, until next Saturday it stays like this. Unless there is a better image of the fourth clone and I have to start over .And not to mention that the size of the gif has to be 300x125

 

[Shawnchapp]

pretty much just finished the game and honestly even with the patch i think the story would make a bit more sense with the twins being the clones like in the non patched version cause all of the clones lines don't make much sense like for example "Just because they're the originals doesn't mean we can't have fun. Poor little clones we don't have a real life." sounds way better when they are the originals "We are the originals, and they have all the fun. They are our clones, and they have a better time than we do." its more impactful IMHO

 

[d_pedestrian]

And yes im the same i do want to know everything about partner.

Why?

i'm currently in a polyamorous relationship myself and i know tons of others are too (it's quite common here)

Where's this place if you don't mind telling us? Asking for a friend

I agree the second sentence has more strength in it that the previous one. But note that in both cases is Amanda mocking Eva's way of speaking and whining about their situation. When Eva complains about it in the first sentence (and that sentence is a paraphrasing of what she really said) she has ingrained in her mind that they aren't entitled to a real life as they are a lab product. In the second sentence, she is angry because the clones have a life she doesn't have access to, and she thinks she should be living their life. Her state of mind and the injustices she sees in her life are different depending on the patch.
I wanted a reversal of roles in the original/clones mentality. Where Emma is impulsive, Daphne is reflexive and Erika is afraid of sex, the hot-headed and sex-driven one in the Mystery Girls is Eva, while Amanda is calm and careful.
With the patch it wouldn't have a lot of sense for Erika and Daphne to be clones, as Norah was pregnant when the plane crash happened, and the patch makes the family... a family.

chance for it to be released on android?

It's already released (officially) since v.0.2. You will find the links in the OP for the Android and Android pre-patched versions
