Java Newlife [v0.8.10] [Splendid Ostrich]

[quiboune]

Quick question ya? (Since I haven't check this game out In a good and long while)

What are the current job paths and promotions paths available?

Oh, boy, you won't believe it. Only the Sales career is available atm.
I believe its promotion paths are:
"Junior Saleswoman" then "Senior Saleswoman" then "Elite Saleswoman"/"Sales Manager".
I don't know if there are any events in the Sales Manager branch.

My dumb ass clicked on this game again after unwatching the thread specifically to avoid disappointing myself with further updates. My stupid ass never learns, I swear. I feel sorry for my parents for creating such a stupid fucking kid.

 

[AlexDark1027]

Can I get a custom NPC creator for the new version? One with the Quickshot and Long_Lasting traits?

Mega

Wow, and the NPC Creator is bigger than the actual game, lol

I know right? Serves me right for clicking lmao. I bet if, next update, someone just uploaded last year's version from the same month nobody would notice.

Current job paths and promotions paths available?

The other one is being a hooker, say yes when you get proposed for sex buy a computer, say yes for some escort work. I'd like to roleplay a hooker making ends meet. All one can do given the miserable rate of progression this game has and complete lack of competition in its genre.

Been playing this game for a long time and god damn nothing has changed. Biggest example of lazy developer with a great game on his hands. There's so much that can be added and expanded upon but nothing of note has been made in years.

i have hope for whenever it gets abandoned and a fanmod can take over

 

[NextTimeMaybe]

Don't get your hopes up, it's only 3 new scenes from what I gathered

3 scenes is actually a lot, all things considered (yeah, I know)
My hope is, SO actually hated the pregnancy updates, hence their half-arsed efforts, and now that's out of the way perhaps further updates would be more satisfying... But boy, I've watched this project far too long to actually get my hopes up

 

[Cloudchaser]

It is one of those fascinating games I've looked at since what seems like forever. Also one of the games I was a patreon for a bit. I really love the writing of anything, I like the scope of the sandbox and the approach with custom NPCs. But it is also the game you still find new scenes after 4 years, get excited because you thought it was new and then you read up and heard that this scene was in there for 3 years but had some obscure triggers. Really hope it still gets worked on and maybe in 10 years when I am forty I have a full experience.

 

[Korder]

If this just supported relations with women and not just men (and ideally to play as a male as well, but let's be realistically unrealistic) I'd be ok with the slower than molasses updates, but that'll never happen of course..

 

[bestfriends]

I have to admit the two latest updates were pretty okay by his standards, let's hope he keeps this up

 

[bestfriends]

how do you get the charm training skill scene by the way? the other scene occurs just by accepting the new job offer

edit: got it with another character, maybe it's tied to a stat or something

 

[mrme]

It being poorly implemented doesn't make it less contentious, if anything it makes it more

 

[Sewyoba]

When a game comes along that has
-turn based/detailed sex
-female POV
-randomized/customizable NPCs
-Modern down to earth setting

then this game is done-zo. But who cares I just steal his patreon version off here anyway fuck him

Game also shouldn't have time management ala sims with needing to do shower every day and satiate hunger and all that stuff. Time scope matters a lot, and choosing actions for entire week forward was a genius idea eliminating lots of necessary "genre" grind.

It seems like SO, aside from being their usual lazy hypocritical self, was either more afraid of hurting/losing the crazies who support him with cash or ignorant of how societal norms and history is more complex than a simple "hurr durr woman clean home and babies."

why are we still here

just to suffer
jerk off
debate gender politics on a porn game

I have been playing and dl'ing every update to this game just wanting content, fuck all whatever you are trying to bring in to this shit, I just want content, and it doesn't really matter any who because the dev doesn't even know we exist.
;-; I just want more content......

 

[barfyman362]

I want to make a text based game sort of like this but I will start small because I'm a beginner. I know basic coding in C, anyone know a good resource to learn how to code in Python? OR should I do it in qsp?

 

[anonymous1234]

Quick question, is there lesbian content or is it still not in?

 

[Watters]

Quick question, is there lesbian content or is it still not in?

Most I've found so far is when you have girls over during a House Party and the Blackjack Party Game triggers. Then it's a matter of hoping the women will agree to forfeits and you'll be the recipient (or participant) of either a makeout or cunnilingus.

Otherwise, I haven't seen anything.

I did recently find extra Lowlife content that triggered randomly. You run into the lowlives a second time while hanging out with a female friend (mine was innocent sales-colleague who was encouraged to stay and have sex to de-stress) and if you have 'Shy' and 'Weak-willed', you can get it on with them in an alleyway.

Edit: Interesting bug
So there's a scene of having a boyfriend take you out for drinks in a minidate thing and you run into a male friend who is the crude and sleazy type that you've had sex with. In my playthrough, my current BF was the crude and sleazy type that I had sex with and then tried to befriend - he suggested I become his GF instead.

Wanna know how the game interpreted that little interaction?



I mean, it still works and it's kinda amusing.

It occurred to me that this is one of the strangest games ever. The developer keeps putting in very special scenarios, which - apart from the question how much is put in in which amount of time - is all very nice.

I gave it a shot after a long pause, and if you encounter the newer content (shooting porn, prostitution) it is even less understandable why some scenes which would fit in much better with the story are still not implemented, e.g.
- intended flashing in the club (not only by showing off her body while drunk) be it on the dancefloor, trying to get a guys attention or to have a little fun. Same goes for the dance competition if she enters the solo competition - if slutty enough she could even stun everybody with a strip dance and get thrown out of the competition - something similar like visiting the men at the gym. It is really a wasted opportunity.
- also there could be sharking events at the club, especially if she treated people bad and they take their revenge. So far I never encountered any consequences if she acted bitchy, or did I miss them?
- people entering the bathroom in the club, disturbing her while making out or having sex with consequences like storming out of the bathroom or letting people watch, getting filmed (and maybe the material gets leaked online) or even having the intruder participate in the sex. Also, it would make sense to implement a gloryhole.
- moresomes of all kind. Especially the event in the gym calls out for it, the situations in the club (bathroom-sex) as well, just like the public sex event at the gig. Or think of the house party event.
- and of course lesbian stuff, including threesomes with a female friend and a guy or two when going to the bar at the weekends. Also it would make sense to make her show off at the club with a female friend allowing some nice competitious exhibitionism. (By the way, I could not trigger the scene in the club dancing with two girls anymore - is it cut out?)

Just to name some simple but nice ideas which would be fun for any playthrough and not just some very specific bits and pieces here and there which require a very specific way to play. Plus, I really like the idea that and how she gets to do porn and the same for prostitution. Yet this seems much more crossing a line to our MC compared to the examples above.

All in all the game sure got better during the ttime I stayed away from it. Still it is very strange what changes were made and which not.

So basically no, I swear he promised lesbian relationships years ago, not even sure why I check on this game it's barely changed since SO first released it.
