VN Ren'Py My Dorm [v0.25.2 S3 Ch.5] [Tropecita Games]

[TigerWolfe]

To be fair, my memories of the area (other than the local community college) is from around 30 years ago ...

Getting real close to 20 for me.

I am pretty sure mine are at least 60 years old.....................

Pretty sure my first "desktop" computer in the 80s was IBM internals, but I can't remember the brand of the "box" ... but I feel like it wasn't IBM (it might have been HP though, but that only feels kinda right). No CDs for me until later. I remember installing Win 3.1 and playing with it for a bit.

Didn't really understand the appeal at first. It slowed down the computer and any programs I launched with it, and I could launch those programs easier and got better performance if I just used the DOS command line and never launched Windows anyway.

Oh, and just to return to the target: Looking forward to seeing how much/little My Dorm's Monterey looks like the real thing ^_^

Very little. I will try to recreate one or two landmarks, but I doubt I could deceive anyone who knows the place.

They should totally bring Kate and visit the aquarium.

They have their full share of belugas.
Edit: Just checked. They don't have belugas. They could be interested in one.

You ARE old!

You ARE old!

And also never set foot on the American Continents.

Judging by the length of their friendship, he probably has the most knowledge about MC out of all of them. So the order should be Jamaal, Eileen, Saira.

Only if length-of-relationship is the only variable. I would think that for many/most people type-of-relationship carries far more weight. When I was married my wife knew tons of things about me that I had never shared with any platonic friend. And as you grow into adulthood you change quite a bit as well - an old friend who knew kid/adolescent you probably doesn't know "adult" you as well as a current romantic partner would. So I would say the original order is believable.

What interests me is where Martha/Emma/Norah/Daphne/Erika end up on that list, because as their romantic relationships progress, they also have that built-in established relationship knowing MC back into his childhood. So at some point I would expect all 5 of them to rank higher than any of those three.

Then you're not Christopher Columbus.

He got distracted. Even after I explained to him that there weren't really any canaries on the Canary Islands he still insisted on a thorough search of the Virgin Islands....

 

[Suprserpent]

Man, the juxtaposition between Betty's face and body are throwing me for a loop.

Maybe he was just a courtesan of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella...

They will count on (almost) all possible shared experiences with the MC in the long run. They will have known him as a youngling, and as an adult. As family, friend, and lover. So yes, the final rank will be:
Martha-Norah
Emma-Erika-Daphne
Eileen-Scarlett-Olivia (Scarlett was Daphne's friend, not the MC's, and Meemaw didn't live at home and didn't visit too often)
Betty (most years of MC's childhood spent in Africa)
The rest (perhaps with a little advantage for Saira at the start, and for the most observant girls like Amanda or Debbie at the end, since they acquire information not only from their own experiences but also from those of others)

About your Spoiler MagicMan753, I can understand that you may not be interested, sure, but maybe it is relevant to her story. Have you considered it?

And, since there was no start of her route yet, how do you propose that should be done? Make the players choose before they even started anything with her? Like a preemptive strike?

Maybe you could consider it a compliment for your sexual prowess that a Nun, feels so excited about seeing you have sex with one of your girls, that she even forgets where she is and touches herself. If it makes it easier for you, maybe she was thinking of Alexia .

I am sure that you'll have a chance to recuse her in the future. Anyway...



She told me to tell you she enjoys the attention.

Peace

Yeah, it could easily be a choice. There are choices that pre open paths, it could be something similar to avoid it, plus its just a suggestion for the dev. I just want to focus on Alexia, but then it jumps to Betty which takes me out of it, since she is a girl I will never romance.

Can't wait for the 25 part questionnaire about LIs you like/don't like, fetishes you want/don't want, text you want to see/don't want to see before we even get to the first render. Feels like the hospital waiting room all over again.

You know, there's an easy way to avoid that* ...

I am playing catch up cause I like to accumulate a few updates and heard Lisa got a new look and some progression, so thought I would drop back in since I stopped before the pool party. I am enjoying it so far, but I have one suggestion for a possible change. (putting in spoiler just in case.

Spoiler: Possible Change

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Also don't know if you saw but will mention just in case, but days 19 and 20 days title screens are in spanish, and didn't play part 3 yet, but some of the gallery titles are in spanish there too.

Thanks for the tips about Spanish texts!

About Betty's scene and the paths pre-opening:
Every path pre-opening choice (Martha, Samantha, Meemaw, Kiara, etc.) is shown when the player has enough information about that woman's personality and story to make an informed choice about that path. It's done to avoid a menu that would break the narrative flow or to show some needed scenes before taking the real action (that will be taken automatically by the MC or the lady). Kiara is the best example. Pre-opening the path was needed to show Eileen-Kiara's conversation before Kiara kisses the MC.

With Betty, we aren't there yet. We don't know enough of her story to make that informed choice (besides personal tastes based on looks and/or age). And that's why, in that scene, we don't see her naked (some of the bathrooms have windows overlooking the jacuzzi, so it would have been easy). The player still hasn't decided so I shouldn't show her naked. But the player hasn't decided yet and I could show her scratching her groin.

The player can decide what the MC will do, but not what the ladies will do. The most obvious example of that is Martha groping and trying to seduce the MC before the costume party, even if the player "rejected" her. Why is "rejected" quoted? Because the MC never rejected her. The player clicked a button (three times) saying he was not interested, but didn't tell her.

Betty will have a pre-opening path choice because it changes the narrative of later scenes, but that choice will be made when her story is ripe. I think if Lisa's pre-opening choice (she hasn't one) was shown at the airport, many players would have rejected her. I know a lot of those players will accept her when the real choice shows. Why? Because they will know more about her when the choice makes its appearance. The same is applicable to Betty.

And remember, we also saw Emma masturbating (and naked) in the first chapter, way before the choice to open a path with her was shown. If there wasn't a problem then, there shouldn't be a problem with Betty. We saw Amanda, Scarlett, Daphne, and Emma naked before their choices were made. I understand Betty is different (looks, age, nun) and not so appealing to some players (I don't judge) so I didn't show anything explicit about her during Alexia's scene.
