Ren'Py - Completed - My Real Desire [Epilogue Full] [Lyk4n]

"how to love a game only playing it once"

This game took me, Alright before i start i am a casual player of VNs that looks for story and scenes in any VN i play, alot of em might have crap art style but a really good story
But this game isnt that, this game is mixed of Goodness

Story- Your MC has more personality then you can figure out, he is someone Who was abandoned then picked up by someone that might not care about him (story will tell) but uses him after training em, All his past made a fear of making relations and any ability to make one but theres a catch, he is able to without really intending to, Char shows his growth points and eventually Finding what he desires most and becoming more emotionally competent, but a good point except his Looks is that as he doesnt care about the norms he is able to establish connections to other chars (aka this is what i could think of from the story, might be what author independent or might not)
Chars: All chars are unique and not a copy paste parade, all have a connection and all have their own story thats not cliche to the point of miss belief
Artstyle: A game that uses Honey select full potential and manages to make superb models and animations

Problems: it might be said a bit too many times but Sandboxs lvls could do some work they are a tad flawed, and theres a problem when you go from VN to sand box to VN might distrub the flow sometimes

Conclusion- All and All great game and i wish it stays a great game ( Harem senpai)
P.S this review is highly personal thoughts to know if the game is worth Play it yourself i guarantee you might enjoy this

the mc is unusual , but not in a bad way ; he is just different.
even though it is still in the early stages of developement there is already a lot of content and the characters are really nice designed in a way that theyre relate- and memorable.

over all this vn feels like a breath of fresh air because of its unique mc and lovely characters

Stumble upon this VN two days ago and didn't have a lot of expectations tbh as a lot of HS based games tend to die fast or lack QC. However ... Oh boi I was wrong ... CH1's writing was kinda artificial and weak but Ch2 to 4 were a massive blast.

Version reviewed : Ch1-Ep4-Part1

Positive so far :
+ Good character casts most of them are relatable and likeable. The girls have depth and you really want to know more about them and learn their backstories instead of having empty vessel just wanting to be banged(but please give more love to Wendy man, it's crazy we saw her only twice in 4 chapters)
+ Good MC, being emotionless and learning to feel again (or not) is a good change of pace compared to the usual horny teen or chad we are used to seeing here, it had an extra layer of character development as well.
+ The BGM, very good choice of OST and quite fitting for most of the scenes
+ The story looks intriguing while sounding a bit generic at first. However, it managed to subvert my expectations fast enough with the real purpose for the MC to be in the company.

What could be improved :
- I know we are still early in development but some girls feel neglected a lot (Aka Wendy and Alice) but well it's only Ch1.EP4.Part1
- The battle mode is funny (if not re-used too much) but the circles need to be more apparent to be more user-friendly
- Some lines feels way too generics and forced
- Some renders inconsistencies (objects disappearing or getting bigger/smaller in the same scene)
- Some clippings during sex animations (like @fulcrum said, it feels weird to see a cock going somewhere it shouldn't)

What I love the most is wonderful characters. Main characters are all beautiful and each has different personality. Their private story make me feel more affection to them. Renders and Animations are decent as well.

1. Elaine ahegao is PERFECT!
2. Amazing gameplay but i really need Alice route!
3. The concept and how it is developed is nice but i don`t see the point (yet?) of double agent theme in it, I`m looking forward to be proven wrong about it`s necessity
4. Girls are looking cute even thou I`m not big fan of unrealistic huge tits
5. Amazing game looking forward to how it`s going to develop!
6. Once again MORE ALICE!

One of those "came for the porn, stayed for the plot" games. The first chapter can be boring, but it eventually gets better and better. The main character is a fun and mysterious dude with his own motives. The girls are sweet. Zeke is a cool bro. "The porn" is lacking here, but "the plot" (the characters themselves, the interactions, and the backstories, ...) truly make the game interesting.

+Unique and good looking characters.

+All characters have their own story and personality.

+A MC with a personality that is neither retarded nor cringy.

+Interesting plot.

+Choices that matter. Nothing is forced on you.

+Decent animations.

+Rin.


-The writing is a bit robotic at times. The MC is supposed to sound that way, no doubt, but at times the author seems stuck in the MC's head when he shouldn't be.


Overall an easy 5 stars. One of my favourite running games!

I am looking forward to future updates!

Art: 4.5/5 (almost 5, but I've seen exactly one better.)

Story: 3/5 (not too much going on really. A day in the life kind of plot)

Sound: 4/5 (music wasnt intrusive, some of it was rather good. sound effects were alright. Zero sex sounds though, which is better than bad sex sounds.)

H stuff: 4/5
I liked the models for the girls, and they all were somewhat different. Honestly my only gripe here is not enough sleeping around, but there definitely is sex so, thats just me being greedy.

Overall: 4/5

This is a pretty good game.

I have a bad habit of skipping through text which can lead to some short games. And yes, I skipped the majority of the test, but what I caught while skimming and the occasional times I read it carefully was actually pretty good. Usually that isn't true.

Also, the visuals were pretty on point. There was enough change that it didn't feel lacking at all. Small things to position changes during scenes are appreciated.

The writing is terrible. The MC literally say's "I'm not interested in love." Then what's the point of this game? To sit in a basement being pathetic and alone? Is the MC even human? Every sentence from the MC comes across like it was written by an AI from 10 years ago, there is not life to it and the only personality trait is fake "edgy". I'm not even 45 minutes in and I'm already writing this review and having a hard time continuing.

Edit: added one star to my rating. I got through the first chapter and things got slightly better. more should have been shown earlier regarding the MC's past and why he acts the way he does. Although even at the end of the current content it is still very much lacking. The MC is still lacking a personality while other characters have an adequate amount, the girls have plenty although some could use more fleshing out.

very good game
i like how the developer tell the story and his way of ingame jokes

animation and presentation are well made

recommended if you enjoy building your harem step by step

one of the games you are waiting for more

My Real Desire [Ch.1 Ep.3 Part2c]
i am amateur on writing review so do forgive me if there is so many mistake. still this is what i can do for the dev, atleast for now. so in sum:
My second best game so far

1. character
MC is cool, no cringe moment. there is a scene when he is asked to smile, he smile like normal person. i'm so glad. i thought his smile will be weird, it will be really cringe, i've seen too many of that bs. BEST MC HAHA.
the girls are bunch of beauties. if you guys like asian girl, this one is the best place to feast your eyes on. if this one get in to chinese novel, it will be "immortal palace of beauties" or something like that haha. i'm really glad to see rin before im dead, kinda remind me of my dearest friend.

2. story
story is really original, not sarcasm. storyline is awesome so far, not many useless dialog, straight to the point. no f given to time skip, seriously, just skip it if it doesn't important, no need filler. i really like it.

3.grammar
english isn't my first language too, i still get all the point. we can still improve, so there is no significant problem with grammar.
i actually i need to point out that i am really glad lyk4n isn't native, it's really easy for me to understand every dialogue. this one maybe for any new dev , basic english (every day english) is really helpful for non native speaker, so might be consider use this kind of simple/basic english. i believe many ppl who don't speak english very well play this game too. i know i don't have the rights to teach dev, it's just suggestion if anyone offended i do apologize.

4. animation
it's awesome. but at some animation v and p or p and mouth isn't really fit.for example sex scene with rin and few BJ with any girl.i know it might be hard to fix since it's about the detail. but i really hope these get better.

TLDR: this game is awesome, i'm glad to play this. very recommended. definitely the game that you should play before you die.
suggestion:
1. i know this just 1 ch of the game, sorry if i judge too fast. for me MC is badass but kinda passive. i hope he will be more aggresive. if he can become alpha, it couldn't be better. seriously dominate rin please.
2. fix the detail of animation
3. i actually play your other game (PL) too. it's scored 3.5/5 for me. i don't like the story or gameplay. but i like the MC tho.
maybe you can put PL on hold and focus in this game, this one have so much potential.
i am sorry if i offended you. but this one is fuckin gem, i just can't help it. i really hope you can focus on one game, not only i hope for the longer gameplay every update but significant improvement in every aspect.
Hope you can be one of the greatest dev, because imo you do deserve that.


GOD I LOVE RIN SO MUCH

[Ch.1 Ep.3 Pact2c]

** Sleep sex and rape, at least so far, is not what you may be thinking. One of the love interests got drunk with MC and "sleep rapes" him by accident**

I went into this with very very low expectations. Mostly because it looked like a fairly standard romance VN with the usual tropes and cliche personalities. I tend to shy away from romance and look for darker themes in these VNs, but I do occasionally stumble upon a lighthearted story with likable characters that do manage to hold my attention. This is one of those.

The writing is fairly good. It's not enough to really stand out as something special, but there isn't any glaring problems with grammar either. It gets the job done. The story has just enough layers to be interesting. It doesn't lay out all the cards at once and we piece together what's going on with the MC as we play through the current episodes. Another good point about the writing is that sex is handled reasonably and realistically. There is no artificial stairway to heaven that starts with teasing, handjob, blowjob, and finally sex. Also, there are some legitimately funny segments in this game and I always appreciate some humor when it can make it laugh.

The MC is probably the character that stands out here which is quite rare. He is incredibly closed off and aloof, but also very attentive and competent. He even has some funny quirks. We learn a bit more about his past as the story progresses and why he is the way he is.

The girls, on the other hand, tend to be quite a bit more cliche. We got the outgoing nice girl, the seductress, the tsundere, the quirky, the shy, etc etc. However, most of them do have a bit more depth then what it seems like at first glance. They are mostly written fairly well and are quite likable. HS models being what they are, it's pretty much a given that they will look smoking hot if you like the HS style.

The music is done decently. I don't like having a default track that keeps playing in the background. I would prefer no music if there isn't a need for it. The game does switch tracks occasionally to fit the tone of some scenes, so that is a plus.

The reason I took off a star here is mainly because of the point system and gameplay design. I am not a big fan of single variable relationship points in VNs. Especially when it inevitably leads to choices like "Be nice vs ignore her." Those are not exactly choices in my mind. I mean, you could choose not to rack up the points for roleplay purposes, but that basically means we are opting out of content with no replacement scenes or route variations. In these types of games, I will lose interest very quickly unless the plot and characters hooks me to a certain extent. I believe the game does accomplish this.

Another thing I didn't like was the free roaming parts and "interview" segments with the girls where we ask about their likes and dislikes. It felt meta gamey and it didn't fit the personality of the MC to be so interested in small talk like that.

All in all, it was a pretty good start to a romance (maybe harem) story that tries to incorporate some deeper plot elements to keep things interesting.

Fantastic game, the story is very original and interesting, you can sense that there's a plot coming but it's nothing forced or kinda of dumb, the MC is emotionless but as you get to know the story you starts to understand why, i just hope that the MC can express his emotions well and seem like a "normal" guy at the end of this VN.

It has a great amount of gameplay considering the date of the first release

The characters all seem nice and good looking, with their own background and personalities

I don't really like playing games that are made with honey moon models (but i have to admit that games made with honey moon 2 are way better to the eyes lol), but this one caught my attention and i couldn't be happier to give it a shot, really looking forward to it, keep it up with the great work dev

This game surprised me a lot. The protagonist seemed to be boring and a jackass at first, but when he arrived in his new home it seems like he becomes better and it turns out that he has the same personality that tha MC of youjitsu (an anime that i like a lot).

The girls are very hot (specialy Rin), has unique personalitys.

The story, altought it was inspired in the anime, it actually picked my interest because i was playing and takin part on it, so it feels different.

The only bad point, IMO, is that there are currently just a few sex scenes, but i think that those will become more frequent and i don't blame it because the few scenes are really hot.

One thing i liked a lot is that, currently, you dont need to choose one girl over the other, so you won't need to play multiple paths just to see all the content and you still can choose wich girls you'll develop you relationship with.

CONCLUSION: This is a great game and has a lot of potential. I'm gonna follow it to see how it progress.

Sorry for my bad english, i'm not a native speaker.

The graphics and animations are awesome. The characters are all my types, I love it. This game has been on my top list right now. The story line are great, it makes you want to play more on each update, the main character are a really cool person, I like his personality. Good work.

When I started playing My Real Desire, I had a hard time getting any sense of who the main character is, and wasn't really sure I was going to like the game, but the MC's flatness and lack of expression at the start was simply part of some very skilled story-telling, and as you learn some of his back story he becomes a more-understandable character. The characterization and character development in this VN are top-notch, and the laying out of the plot includes several instances of foreshadowing and hints that there is more and more we have yet to learn about these people. Add to that good modeling and animation of sex scenes, and this is really quite a good VN. The text makes good sense, and while, as an editor, I see things that could be improved all in all, I can heartily recommend this to anyone who is interested in an adult visual novel with and intriguing plot, good graphics, and very good storytelling.

I really like this menu, the picture is so beautiful, the texture is excellent.I really like the characters named Rin and eira. Other characters like it very much. Keep doing it and keep following it.

EDIT: Latest update (Ch3Ep1Part1) has given one of the heroines an unfortunate backstory including rape. While that girl wasn't really high up in my list, I can imagine those who like her won't really enjoyed it. Writing quality kinda went down but the plot is still quite interesting to me.

Interesting story with likeable characters and the designs are great. The animation is really nice as well. Loving the concept of the Angels being the conquerable routes. Making it a harem is a plus for me. Looking forward to all the future updates.

Solid writing, great graphics despite the engine used. Really good character design/development. Usually I mute music in these games, but the music in this one is quite good and suits the moods of the different scenes. Very impressed, eager for more!

Not a bad VN. Several different girls to interact with.
MC comes off as a robot, but it doesn't really matter.
The ladies are all beautiful, and there's quite a few of them.

There wasn't any typos that I noticed. The ladies seem to have depth, and each are very interesting. I'm looking forward to where this goes in the future. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing.
