Ren'Py My Maid Dreams of Electric Sheep [v0.8.9] [dodongamagnifico]

[IrkinInc.]

'Scuse me.

Side stepping all that, a question please. I play on android, and only android for any of these games, and was wondering if there was a way to start a new game separate from the newer 8.0? That way I can enjoy the legacy version whenever, and continue to update the new one with its changes going forward?

Gng does anyone have a 0.8.3 save file

I can't say I care about losing the prostitution scenes purely from a gameplay standpoint. I only went thru those scenes to see if they were necessary to progress her story, I'm not exactly thrilled to pay an unwilling prostitute (or any for that matter). That said, I think it's a little unfortunate it makes the game seem a little less dark and depressing, but there are plenty of other ways to do that.

Either way I can't say I understand the outrage over it, the game still has a long way to go and it's been here for a while; none of us have any clue how it's actually gonna turn out.

The gun has potential. I think it would be a missed opportunity to leave it out of the game when you're living in some dystopian society where nobody except the gubberment is supposed to have one. The main character seems kind of... tame? this version. I don't know for certain if it's any different to 7.12, but iirc he was bit more unhinged in that playthrough. Considering the shop owner is still beating yui might as well have him kill her or something. Not in a white knight way, but she jeopardized his secret of not taking tha pills after he got too close to to yui and had to slime her. (so he doesn't lose his blackrock/blackstone ahh real estate that pays for all the estradiol he buys to get his robot maid to molest him in his sleep )

The depression bar doesn't seem to do anything, and it seems very difficult to keep down either way (I just leave it maxed)

I did like the new "in heat" animation, makes her actually seem horny. iirc the old one just seemed like she was sad/broken and then later that night she'd be bouncing and doing tricks on it. I'd like to see a variety or progression to the somno text lines where our character gets diddled. Having their interaction act like it's the first time it happened when... it's not the first time she diddled him in his sleep is weird; but if the implementation of specific "in heat" lines (for the second time shes in it) is anything to go by, that's going to be added anyway.

The bookstore girl interaction I think was done pretty well. Y'know, she's not overtly and excessively friendly from the start, just weird from presumably very rarely interacting with anyone. I'd like to see more of her side story even if it doesn't necessarily lead anywhere.

Giving the wood shop owner a face is nice but I can't help but think she should be more muscular/tomboy-esque just by nature of her job and personality (also it'd give variety to the character builds to a greater degree).

For one of the few games that seems to have more of an actually unique story than just unadulterated goon I'm interested in where it'll go, but overall this seems like an improvement even in light of the deleted content. If I wasn't such a dirty poor I'd sub to patreon or something.

The beauty in the old storyline when it comes to the Yui being forced to sell herself scenes, is that it's not a simple "Do the good thing or do the bad thing" situation but a "If you don't do it, someone else will" situation. So it's a very grey area of "I don't want to make this girl do something she's obviously not willing to do but if I don't it's going to happen with someone else she's even less comfortable with" especially the final scene. If you don't take her virginity, someone else will. Do you want to be the asshole who takes it knowing she's only asking out of despair or do you want to be the asshole who ignores her plea and she loses it to someone else she can't even see? A truly dark and depressing outcome regardless of what you choose.

Same, while I'm not exactly happy about the prone scene being gutted...I'm not angry about it and as I said earlier, I'm actually liking the new Yui. She's absolutely adorable and the store owner (her own damn family) is still an unlikeable piece of shit. Don't like how quickly the MC warmed up to her though while still being kinda standoffish to Ako. So I'll like for the progress with her to slow down a bit and match up with Ako more.

With the new storyline and MC being more caring towards Yui and more risk towards himself...I personally would be happy if her story ends up going that direction. Let Yui even get in a stab or two.

Really? There's quite a few things you can do to keep it down. Once I got Ako, I very quickly was able to get it to stay at 0 though it costs a fair bit o' money. 1, the obvious one have H with Ako. 2, only eat prem bento (1,800 yen) or cook for yourself. 3, have Ako make you breakfast (forgot how much this costs). 4, drink some green tea once you're able to get to rank D (800 yen). 5, take a shower. 6, keep the radio playing. 7, read the letters from your mom. 8, limit the amount of overtime you do. 9, don't drink coffee or energy drinks.

Since it seems the developer is actively reading messages here, I’ll take the opportunity to address you directly.

First off, I want to make it clear that I'm not here to criticize for the sake of it. I usually stay quiet (as you can probably tell from my post count and the age of my account), but I felt this was worth speaking up about.

I do care about your game, it’s been on my radar ever since I played it. Like many others in your community, I despise censorship and I find it unfortunate that you've felt the need to self-censor to avoid potential takedowns.
I've read your recent responses and I do understand your position. You believe releasing a patch, even externally, is still too risky, and therefore off the table. While I may not fully agree, I get that you’re just trying to protect your livelihood.

Unfortunately, I genuinely believe that there is no future for content creator like yourself on Patreon, it is not going to get better, since the beginning it only got worst and worst.

With that in mind, assuming your ideal goal is to continue creating your game without censorship, have you considered inviting your supporters to back you on SubscribeStar instead? You could clearly explain that making the switch would allow you to maintain your creative freedom, whereas staying on Patreon would force you to compromise your original vision.

Maybe you’ve already looked into this, but from the outside, it feels like you went straight to “I have to censor the game, I have no other choice” without giving your supporters the chance to explore other options with you and keep true to the promise of the game they decided to help you make.

Of course, I understand that such a transition wouldn’t happen overnight, and there’s always a risk of losing some subs in the process. But honestly, I find it hard to believe that people who were willing to support you financially each month, specifically for an adult game, wouldn’t be open to following you to another platform if it meant preserving the vision they signed up for.
If anything, as the reactions here show, you're at greater risk of alienating your community by altering the core elements that drew them to your game in the first place.

While it's true that you can’t openly promote your SubscribeStar on Patreon, you could surely mention it, subtly if you want to be extra careful, through other channels, like your Discord and see how it goes. It wouldn’t need to be aggressive or pushy, just a clear explanation of why it matters and what’s at stake. Even if it doesn’t work out, at least you’ll have explored the option, and no one can fairly accuse you of not trying to find a solution.

Anyway, we're definitely going through difficult times when it comes to creative freedom and expression. Whatever path you choose, I wish you and your game the best of luck.

 

[Poomis]

hello, its been awhile since I last played the game. judging form the comments I can see a lot has happen. can you save the connivance store girl?

 

[ClownTownClown]

I think the main reason why everyone's mad is because a lot of content was cut but not enough content was added.

The reason I got mad was cause I felt like it didn't have to be cut. And the wait time was extra long this time around. I was subscribed and I was really hoping it would be good. It was good, but there was cut content... It made me feel really disappointed and like I wasted my money for nothing. You can't just go one step forward and ten steps back.

 

[iamsensei]

Well, my lovely black screen bug, and idk how to fix it

 

[Ianthe_90]

So the game contents get cut in more than half if i have to say, i like the change on history on the store girl, but why is the dev deleting a lot of the content that there was already in older version, i remember playing this a year ago and i remember it was lots of content

 

[h45sa2]

It's not about those scenes, man, it's about the principles and the laziness of the game developer. It wouldn't have cost him anything to release a patch to restore the content like all normal developers do, but he's such a paranoid and cowardly person that he's even afraid to publish a patch on a pirate forum, and maybe he was just too lazy to make it. And overall, he's essentially greedy and a slacker. I've read all his answers on this forum, I've seen the developer's Discord, and I've figured it all out. It's such a shame that a game with so much potential was made by such a greedy, unprincipled, and cowardly person.

Oh my god, dude, the developer even sits on this forum and reads the responses not because he is interested in people's opinions about his game, but because he is afraid that the link to his game with new updates will be posted ahead of time

Release the patch yourself, modding is a thing.

 

[Mogoesnuts]

Popped back in after a year to check how much much content has been added only to found out there is less content now welp.

This problem was fixed in the latest version 0.8.6, you have 0.8.3

 

[Kotakbas717]

I used to consider this game one of the top 10 on f95 and was going to support it once I fixed my finances, but hey, if you don't care about the community in a pirate forum, why are you even here?

wow, " i was going to support it sometime maybe " and "you dont care about pirates" why should he even care about you? in fact, him not caring about you is infinitely better than being offended by pirates and putting some drm or something, were you deprived of attention from your parents?

 

[Kotakbas717]

It's a shame but I don't see myself subbing in the future to the game anymore. If this is the kind of way the developer handles community feedback and lables it at as trolling or ignorance, clearly he's already made up his mind about where he wants to go with the project.
Patreon's censorship policy has increasingly become more and more oppressive, which will likely lead to why people stop using it for something else in the future, but for now we're not going to be getting sensible and understanding conversation on the topic because the dev is too much of a coward to accept the concerns of the people.
What's worse, mocking people for speaking up about stuff they don't like actively encourages those same people and others to consider reporting your project and be even more petty than yourself.
Not good. Not good at all. I wouldn't attack anyone, but there are some people who can definitely hold a grudge out there.

its not patreon's fault but these goofballs from mastercard/paypal, you cant just switch to any other platform, all of them are doing the same censorship or will in the future. Only way out would be if some website used crypto payments, but realistically how many people even use crypto

 

[Kotakbas717]

So the game contents get cut in more than half if i have to say, i like the change on history on the store girl, but why is the dev deleting a lot of the content that there was already in older version, i remember playing this a year ago and i remember it was lots of content

i dont get people saying "got cut in more than half" and "huge amount of content was removed", literally 2-3 scenes with the maid and the vaginal scene with Yui while her other scenes can be seen through the gallery viewer, yall aint even play the game just hating for the sake of it

 

[NukaCola]

Sandbox, ugh

 

[duckbck]

did the iveseeneverything code get updated or delated in the new update?

 

[Anime!]

So Mr Dev sir, i really dont want to go digging through threads and all the replies but where would we find information about the direction updates are going to go in the future for this game?

Specifically my question is if on the off chance that you're able to re-introduce certain scenes ( but i actually mean ALL scenes) to the way you originally envisioned, would that be considered a possiblity down the road or are you strictly playing it safe? Sorry if this has been asked ad nasuem

You can find the answers in Dodonga posts but to help you out:
- for now he plays safe
- a sneaky patch is not safe enough, there's been case where patreon staff strike down dev/artist patreon over content posted outside of patreon
- he confirmed if the situation calm down he would add the missing scenes
