RPGM - My New Life: Revamp [v0.953] [Beggar of Net]

This is one of my all time favorite adult game to date! This game got one of the greatest story in adult games ever. It has a very likable MC who are very easy to enjoy playing as. The rest of the cast is just incredible, every character has unique look with an equal unique personality. It got something for everyone, big ass, small ass, big tits and small tits and a shit ton more of different stuff. This definitely is one of the few adult games I play for the story as well as the sex scenes, I genuinely enjoy how the story evolves and progresses.
I can't wait to see how it's going to end!

After playing both the original and revamp version, I will say that I enjoyed the sex gameplay of the revamp far more. Characters were hot and animations are great.

Overall I really enjoyed this game and is personally one of my favourite games on the site.

better ui, slightly less buggy, the game is objectively better than the original. It's not without flaws but still it doesn't deserve the hate.
Also many people say that the game is more linear, which isn't true since most of the added content can be done whenever except for the main quest and the school.

I wouldn't call it a "Revamp" it's more of a "rehash". Most of the same problems from the original are still present - grindy time sink, crappy mini-games, a whole lot of boring busywork - the story has been changed only slightly from what I can tell. Pretty disappointing.

When I read revamp I thought we might see a more streamlined player friendly version, maybe a different engine. Something that would justify the redo but none of these things have happened. It just appears to be an opportunity to make all the same bad design choices again and continue raking in the Patreon dollars with minimal effort.

I love to play this game . Animations are fantastic.. Only thing is going from one place to another is little hectic.. Idea of making revamp was fantastic ..
Story is like actually we are leaving.. characters sie and shapes are of my genre.

A very good game with some nice animations and it's not one of those ones that you can finish in one sitting. I am enjoying it a lot and would give it 5 stars but it can be quite buggy at times and it annoys me how every character is thicccccc as fuck, would prefer some variety.

Its basically the same game with little improvements, revamp just seems like an excuse to keep the money flowing through while making it seem like its still being worked on to be frank.

Was disappointed because I thought this would add a lot more things and change the game around significantly. The game itself is not extremely bad but I just don't see a point in the revamp if you are not going to do it big.

Also it seem that some aspects went a step back and feels like it is more grindy.

This was one of the first porn games i have played, and i LOVED the incest part the most, but now i just noticed, that he changed the story completely, and one of the best parts (Real mother) is never going to be developed.

I downloaded the game, but when i noticed on the first scene that incest was removed, i deleted the game and canceled my Patreon Support.

If he releases a patch i may return and play it.

I love how its much simpler and straight forward than the last one. I believe theres little to no chance to miss out on good content in this one. In the og version you could miss out on good stuff and even lose a main girl if you took a right instead of a left or did missions in a different order. Without that huge ass walkthrough and a cheating mod you were pretty much fucked.

i have played the original version two years ago. it was rich in content and had the right tone to it as far as adult games are concerned, but was buggy and the going from place to place grind was a pain. after getting stuck there, it seems the dev made a good decision and decided to make the revamped version easier to play. i have finished this version without getting stuck at any point (no easy feat considering this is in alpha stage). the game froze a few times but it was no biggie, as you are prompted to save every day. the hints system is not perfect yet, but it works well enough. graphics-wise the game looks simple at first, but you do get used to it and the animations are well done, the sex eventually finishing with ahegao, of which i'm a big fan. transportation is much easier now thanks to bus stations everywhere. most quests were fun to go through and you get your exploration fill, which is an integral part of rpgm games, thanks at least to the magazine finding quest towards the end. all in all, a very good game already, that kept me busy and entertained for four evenings.

Great graphics, mostly smooth animation, interesting story, and plenty of sex to go around. It's just an awesome game overall. I personally think it's better than the previous version of the game in many ways.

Based on v0.001.8.
Played with cheats on money so might be grindier experience without this cheat.

Probably one of my favorite game made with RPGM but has all the problem of a game made with RPGM (Time spent just walking with no added value/Saving system not optimal (not as good as Renpy for example)/No rollback/...)

Pros:
Decent amount of Content (that hit my kinks so YMMV)
All around better than previous iteration while keeping what I found enjoyable in.
Mini map is pretty useful, Hints worked mostly well (sometime confusing or wrong but corrected itself most of the time if you slept a night).

Meh (as in not horrible but could be improved upon):

Navigation on computer isn't really snappy could use a rework (instant click + navigation from icon to icon with the keyboard) don't know how much time it would take so can't tell if it's really worth it tho.
Travel could be improved imo:
- A 5$ taxi system accessed with smartphone to directly get to a place/house could be nice.
-A quick travel to school sound kinda necessary IMO (those minutes add up with no real added value for the player IMO).

Cons:
*Not a fan of RPGM games in general so some of the problem might be general issue rather than specific to the game.*
The game is a fucking time-sink, everything takes more time than it should for no real reason beside the game engine.
It can't be really played in short burst (IMO) since you would need to remember what you were doing where you need to go and what you were doing and the fact that every action takes fucking forever.
Video that can't be muted even though you muted sound in settings :/
The first screen with all the dancing ladies is super laggy on my comp for some reason.
*Edit:* Too many action in the 15-20h timeslot compared to the rest might want to put every action possible in an excel sheet and see if there are cluster of actions at some spaces and move some around (unless it's by design but I don't think it's a good design to have to skip some timeslot everytime because there is nothing to do).

Conclusion:
Objectively a 3* (IMO) but a 4* in my heart.
If you want to play a pseudo shota wandering (aimelessly) around town banging everything he sees this game is for you.

I actually like RPGM games better than Renpy ones and Ive already played MY NEW LIFE. can't say I'm not disappointed it was't finished but I'm willing to give it a try to the new version. I think it's understandable that the DEV wanted to start over, he tried to cover too much stuff and he kept adding more and more and not finishing any or finishing some stuff too soon. I hope this time he will use what he made in the first attempt and just polish it rather then trying to put more stuff into it and finally complete the game.

This is a terrible reboot of this game.You spend countless time walking here and walking there. This has become a VN with hours of walking and grinding. The grinding is worse because it is compounded by pointless walking. The story seems a bit better but the do one thing and only one thing ruins what was good about the game before the reboot. This was the only game that I would replay. Now I have deleted all of my new revamp copies. I do not see any reason to continue it is that bad now. Tooo much pointless walking.

People are just bitching about his game left right center; not reading that the game is still in alpha.. give some time to the dev; the scenes are being reworked; also new jobs are being added; the game is more linear now; the renders are great and yes bugs exist but the game is in alpha.. please read the same before ranting

this game have too many mistakes....
It's a pity since he has very good illustrations and he looks very entertaining despite it.
It could improve a lot by eliminating some things like the city map and adding others such as stories with classmates and their mothers, school teachers and weekend jobs.
Lo mejor que tiene es las ilustraciones de las mujeres voluptuosas y curvosas con grandes senos.
Y enormes caderas....lo peor es la cantidad de errores que se van sucediendo en todo el juego.

i think the revamp works better than the old game just not enough content yet... played the revamp at version 0.01_3 alot of things look better and the game runs better than the old game...most of the story didn't change like I throught it would .... what content i could play was very good...

bunch of bugs, less scenes, the story is terrible pacing and rushed. was told less grinding but seems its just as tedious as before in a different way. with the new update the family is not as involved. the main draw to this game was the scenes but instead the developer reworked sprites, maps and mechanics that most didnt have a problem with.

I enjoyed the old version though it was a touch grindy.

I find this version and its extremely linear play annoying. Might as well make it a graphic novel.

Getting anywhere sucks... period. The map view is far too small.

The added graphics are fun though there are some artifacts and clothing displacements in them. I actually enjoy the intro dancing screen. It's rough, but suggestive enough to fire up my imagination.

I am going to put it aside for a while and see if it improves after a couple updates.

I have seen so many people hating this revamp, I think many of them just liked the older version structure more than this linear one we have now, others seems like they wanted BON to change the engine to renpy, which would take away most of the gameplay, require him to learn an entire new language and become less dinamic (I will never understand why some people prefer renpy to RPG Maker), but allow highter resolutions and removing the walking around.

Now my opinion. I played the original version much time ago, and I liked the structure of you going around each girl with her own chain of events and quests which allow you to chase many at the same time. But for what I read in the Patreon Page, this was a big programation mess, which caused many bugs which made him make this revamp. I admit that the more freedom you give to the player the more possibilities you give him to break the game, so a complete free world with many chain of events that intercept themselves (since their quests don't isolate other characters) could easily spiral into an unsolvable mess if not well thinked and visualized. There should be many times you need to stop teh player from progressing something because another thing didn't happen yet and the game is still waiting for it.

So yes, I understand why BON did this. And I agree with the ones who didn't like it. It is possible to do what he set himself to do at the previous version, it's just hard to pull it out. Maybe a little less freedom, but not almost complete linearity of chain of quests that have nothing to do with each other.

About the story, there are some changes, it is darker since the begining, I'm not sure what was the best. I will jsut say that the story is too MC centered. You should be able to see interactions of the characters without the MC and things happening not being caused by MC, right now, we only have the consipiracy, and that's all. What about the events? The dick competition? the things outside MC's control?

The scenes no one is talking about because they are comapring them to the previous version, and nnot by themselves. I think the pallet is a little too dark, and BON could increase the FPS of those scenes. Yes it's better than many you have out there, but for scenes based only on animations and ramdom moans with no text, no hot descriptions or anything else really, BON should try to get at least a 15 FPS in those scenes, I think they are more or less 6 or 7 FPS, maybe a little more, but still far from enough to fool my eye.

Conclusion. Has potential, but the structure is still not enough for the size of the game, the scenes need more frames and characters need to stop depending on the MC for everything, they need more interactions with each other. Maybe in time things can become better, let's see.

EDIT: I began to replay the version 2.1 to take a look and compare, and I must say, my memory betrayed me.

That game was bugged. For you to have an idea the walkthrough said for you don't start any quest until you finish Maria, Rachel, Dad and Sarah. And the only reason I can think for it in a game open world like this, is that if a used character isn't in their initial state, it can break an event they are part of. The walkthrough even warn you about big bugs you will meet along the way.

The game was also very inconsistent, it has some scenes with a still image or two and text (very small, really), others only have animations and SE, and some of the animations have only 3 FPS. No wonder he wanted to make a revamp. I still think that if you want to make animations only, aim for at least 15 FPS.

The story, I will remind you this is totally an opinion and might have spoilers, is a little bad. I must say I don't like the idea of you working for the mobs, and there you can even choose which mob you want to work for. Dad if love his children so much should keep them away from the cops and bullets of rivals. I didn't watch Godfather, but I am pretty sure if a mobster can get out and staying rich and becoming clean he will. No one want to live his entire life being hunted by cops and mob rivals. I also must agree with BON that you can't really keep that kind of personality hidden from his family for too long. A joke and the man almost killed a woman, talking about respect. That means he is very agressive, hard to keep this hidden for long. He also don't have much love for his daughter, and have some kind of problem with women in general, not the kind of guy who actually want kids in my humble opinion. So he was inconsistent. Even if the player only met him now, his entire life he lived with his children, it's too long to keep a mask. So I agree with the change now. I also noticed that he didn't took you to warren when you uncovered about him, which might mean you won't be forced to be envolved with the mob if you don't want to. I apreciate that. For this improvement of the story, I will change the rating to 4 stars instead of 3.
