Ren'Py Mythic Manor [v0.22] [Jikei]

[L33ch]

Huh. Though I'm not a fan of the word by any means, I always thought Velle was the one most likely to use it, given both her nature and personality.

Honestly, I fully disagree. Aside from just focusing on the fact that the term 'babe' is usually used by inexperienced couples to show possession in public along with some minor amounts of demeaning/belittling/infantilization, (take your pick,) Velle is often shown to be extremely heavily into bdsm and very experienced in sexual matters. Hell, the first time we meet her, she's got some poor bastard bound up for some SM play where she's the domme.

From experience, let me tell you - there is such a plethora of words and terms of endearment - both sweet and twisted - available, that saying 'babe' repetitively like a teenagers first relationship would grind your nerves until it stung. Even assuming she's trying to be 'sweet' in these instances, she'd only said it... maybe twice before in all of her dialogue, and always with a flirtatious tease attached like she's poking fun at the difference in their experience and making it seem like she's out of his reach.

Further, in spite of the fact that they fuck like animals from time to time, every interaction has been building familiarity, but been respectful. It made sense, like a relationship between two humans getting built. There was no clear trigger that this scene would be the one they become familiar enough with each other to exclusively use petnames. (And FFS, it's the same overuse issue that I ran into on Naira's route. Can you imagine MC and Velle fucking when Naira gets home and hears "Babe" thinking MC is calling for her? They could at least have unique petnames.)

I guess long story short, 'babe' is juvenile. I can stand its use in some circumstances where it's relevant as mentioned above, but overall, I can't stand it. The way the writing is going, every girl in that house is going to get called babe, and they're all going to call him babe, and there will be a neverending stream of 'babe' in the dialogue. God I hope I'm wrong and Neferi doesn't get pigeon holed into that linguistic trap. She's been written to be so much smarter than that.

God I hope I'm wrong and Neferi doesn't get pigeon holed into that linguistic trap. She's been written to be so much smarter than that.

Maybe it's just me, but I feel like you're overreacting. Nefari using the petname "babe" towards the MC would be totally out of character, and as of the current version, I see nothing to suggest she would start doing it. Also, I do not recall any instance of the word "babe" being thrown around in Naira scenes, so if it happened, it must've been only once or twice so far.
As for Velle... she's been using that one in regards to MC for a very long time already. Do remember that due to her heritage she requires sex to survive, and as a result her mother tried her damnest to raise her to see men as not much more than cum dispensers. That's why she was so nonchalant about using her powers to mind-control people for sex (and the initial bdsm thing). MC is the first guy with whom Velle feels so deeply connected, so this is likely her first relationship that is not just about sex. I think we can forgive her for not understanding that some people apparently have hangups regarding being called babe. Also, once she started developing feelings for MC, she stopped getting involved in any bdsm activity, even with MC (so far at least) - that kind of proves to me that she wasn't so much interested in this to begin with - just something she was raised to believe she needs to do.

Hell, the first time we meet her, she's got some poor bastard bound up for some SM play where she's the domme.

Interesting choice of words. "poor bastard" implies that this guy is put in a bad situation, like he wouldn't be there if he could help it. You do realize that some people out there are into being subs, right?

Speaking of which, is it just me or is there a plot-hole here? Isn't there a rule where the residents of the manor are not allowed to have guessts (or at least unannounced visits)? That kind of played a big part in Jade's story, and had a call-back with the latest Vanna event.

It saddens me that these updates are 3gb+, and there's no compressed version. I would absolutely love to continue enjoying this masterpiece, as it is one of my favorites, but I simply do not have the data/wi-fi to download that much atm.

EDIT: I may go find somewhere to leech off of haha.

What paywall are you talking about? Jikei did not lock anything behind paywall beside the exclusive wallpapers.

if you look at the $20 or $50 one you will see a walkthrough locked there.

You must not have played Naira's content from the last update then, because that was the offender I was referring to. I have plenty of grievances with her storyline in particular up to that point, but when they go out on a date to the... ice skating rink, I think it was(?) a switch just flipped. I am pretty sure the term got thrown in around 50 times in that one scene whereas neither of them ever used it before, and with Naira's personality generally being shy and reserved, I really can't see her unabashedly switching over to using it with zero hesitation, especially in public.

As for Velle - again, I wasn't saying she wouldn't use it, because at the least she had used it a few times up to this point, but it was always in a flirtatious way to show the difference in their experience. It was never a term of familiarity or endearment because the emphasis was on slightly demeaning or goading MC.

And yes, I realize there are some men out there who enjoy being subs. On a personal level, I do think they are unfortunate bastards, but in a more relevant to the subject matter way - he's a 'poor bastard' that's getting subjected to Velle's appetite both sexual and literal while tied up. She's even able to give the MC a run for his money, and the guy can go for 300 rounds in a day stiff as a rock while shooting loads like he's got a firehose built in. The "Poor bastard" was probably getting the literal life sucked out of him, regardless of if he enjoyed it or not.

If i can make a small suggestion. Seeing as the term of endearment used obviously upsets you, why not download Unren and change it to whatever you would prefer? It may take a little while to change in the script but it's got to be a better option than getting upset by it.

I certainly can, and indeed I might end up doing so, thank you for the suggestion.

That said, I really only brought it up in the thread because I do like this game so much. I don't want to see the writing and dialogue that has supported this style of story for so long devolve into the atrocity it's heading towards because I really, really want it to succeed and for the devs to do well.

I could always change it for myself, maybe even make it available as a modpatch to others, but if scripts continue to be written in the style of a 14 year old girls fanfic, then I can't imagine it ending well.

Having checked again though, it seems this is one of those times the dev team isn't involved on f95, so I guess I'll have to either join the discord or bite the bullet and pledge again to try and get my message through.
