Thanks for some additional information, those giveaways were not that clear for me, possibly for others also. I'm not arguing your vision of Ghost, that would be stupid, I'm just conveying how I have received and interpreted it.

We don't know how capable Ghost is, maybe he's been able to create Lisa in that 15 month time frame. Maybe that was his escape from "injuries" 'caused by Valery. Spider was impressed by his ability in creating Lisa so it's safe to assume that he is very capable. As for his apartment, it is explained that there was an outbreak that is partly responsible for his living arrangements. Judging by Frank's words 'bout that place Ghost is not in a bad position at all. Simply put, I didn't get the impression of Ghost as someone who jumps to opportunity of casual sex. That impression was brought by the fact that appealing, charming (office interactions with future team members), well equipped guy was without female companionship (casual or otherwise) for over 15 months.

Korben Dallas comparison is both bad and good, for the same reason, choice. It's bad because Korben, unlike Ghost, had no choice. His meet with Leeloo was by chance, start of his adventure was forced by Government/Military/Person(s) he detests very much. Was he in the need of the spark/adventure to wake him up? Who knows, possibly. Would he jump to that particular adventure given a choice? Definitely not. So why it is a good comparison? 'Cause illustrates my point very good. Besson "needed" Korben on that adventure, he did not give him choice. You "need" Ghost on this adventure, don't give "him", or rather in this case to player, a choice. How will you accomplish it, through unavoidable sex scene or better constructed action choice, is up to you as author. Everything else 'bout Claire and car is of secondary importance here, problem lies in choice.

It seems to me that your initial idea of unavoidable sex scene was good, certainly better than how it is now. For whatever reason you decided to implement that action choice, it was the wrong reason and this choice implementation is suffering for it. How it is implemented now it almost feels like you were pissed at people complaining about not been given a choice, so you gave them a "choice", either see the scene or fuck off.

It's great you have your own idea on Ghost,there is an intentional space left for the player,so you can place yourself in his shoes,at least to a degree.

It's Lisa who informs Ghost when the last female visit was,that should tell you she was already existing when that took place,but also wasn't back when he was with Valery.

Well you say Korben didn't had a choice but I say he makes a series of choices that eventually lead him to the conclusion of the movie.The same way if at any point Ghost would decide to check out he would miss on the entire adventure.

You can't really make a judgment that the reason is wrong if you don't know what the reason is Like I said before,some players have problem with the scene being mandatory.There will be more mandatory scenes in the game,if someone is not OK with it,it's an early out.

No,I wasn't pissed.I'm surprised it turned to be such an issue in a game where you should expect sex scenes.But not angry. It was a risk to go in a direction different than majority of AVN's do,in many aspects - there's no free roams,grind,you can see a lot of scenes on a single playthrough..etc. So I have to take under consideration,not everyone is going to be happy with my game.I'm still making the best game that I can and believe it or not I am trying to make players happy with what I'm doing

Well I didn't quite get it like that, my interpretation was that Ghost has created Lisa at some point over 15 moths ago and after his fallout with Valerie, which happened unspecified time ago. In my mind the only reason that guy like him wouldn't be with female in (who knows how much) over 15 months is that he was badly hurt by Valerie and is not really trustful toward ladies at the moment. I see where misunderstanding comes from, in my previous post I made a typo, missed word "over" in this sentence.

We don't know how capable Ghost is, maybe he's been able to create Lisa in that 15 month time frame.

Sentence should have been "We don't know how capable Ghost is, maybe he's been able to create Lisa in that OVER 15 month time frame."

Doesn't matter anyway, the fact that Ghost, being a guy as he is, has not entertained ladies for a very long time made me think that he's not a person so eager to jump into casual fun time with Claire, especially if he has "detected" that it's a prerequisite to get some job offer from her.

Well you say Korben didn't had a choice but I say he makes a series of choices that eventually lead him to the conclusion of the movie.The same way if at any point Ghost would decide to check out he would miss on the entire adventure.

I'm certain that there will be choices for Ghost to make throughout your story, as it was with Korben. My point was that it wasn't left on Korben to choose if he will go on the cruise ship and meet Plavalaguna or not, essentially starting him on his adventure. Similarly, it shouldn't be on Ghost (player playing your game as Ghost) to choose if he will go on his adventure or not.

You can't really make a judgment that the reason is wrong if you don't know what the reason is Like I said before,some players have problem with the scene being mandatory.There will be more mandatory scenes in the game,if someone is not OK with it,it's an early out.

Looking how things are now, first player choice in your game, and very early in the game, is between watching a sex scene or not playing a game. For me this is a very bad action choice execution, one that looks like that you, as a author of this game, was "forced" to implement it, and therefore did a half-ass job of it. Simulacrum29 has explained it very good in his post.

I liked Claire and as far as i was aware the MC is single, so no problem hooking up with her, but if the sex with Claire is necessary than it is not a choice and shoundn't be presented as one. In the same fashion you could started the game with a black screen with the options "fuck Claire" and "Fuck off", which would start the story or close the game. ^^

We found the game, downloaded the game, installed the game, opened the game and the first choice in game after all the real choices we took so far to get to this point it gives us a potential game over, that sir is called "a dick move".
At this point we took several choices to play the game / experience the story. There shouldn't be the need for another barrier.

I can see that you have put a lot of love, time and effort in telling this story and creating the best game that you can, and believe me that's the only reason I'm writing all my posts here and making suggestions. I'm hoping that my honest feedback is helping you in your effort to make this the best game that your resources allow you. Best of luck, I'm eagerly awaiting to see future books of Ghosts' story.

I'm not one to lavish praise on a game, especially in it's early phases, but man this is absolutely awesome. Excellent technically. Really enchanting LIs, each of whom has a unique personality. Lewd scenes are solid. Love the writing. really love the fact that you've come up with a story line that lets this be relatively fast burning without turning the eLIs into a bunch of sluts. Very clever and it works well in the plot.

Looking forward to where you take this. Haven't seen a "non-standard" VN with this much potential in a very long time.

Thank goodness you decided not to go with the traditional grind heavy sandbox game.
Don't think I could take another one of those right now.
Keep up with the great work Name

I was born in the 80's so the whole 80's vibe I'm getting in this game is a huge plus. I'm loving it so far!

But Stargate is a 90s movie.

What. The. Fuck? I honestly expected some weird plot twist when I first saw this like she was an android or an alien but it was just some odd reflection.

ohh I love sci-fi stories, thanks!

 

[Reniere]

Decided to try this first time. Honestly renders look good but the motion animation( frame to frame ) makes the renders look downgraded. It goes from 10 to 6 the moment the animation( frame to frame) start to play looks like a slide show. but other then that its good

I usually take a wait and see attitude but, I confess, curiosity got the best of me. Will we be getting a body for Lisa?
