VN Ren'Py No More Money [v4.2.0 S4 Ep.2 GE] [RoyalCandy]

[Wtvwynn]

Was the writer behind this game hit in the head? What an absurd and atrocious sudden change in the main character's demeanor with zero logical reason behind it. This went from a pretty decent story of a guy doing whatever he can, including taking a near death beating and almost getting shot just to try and save a stranger's sister and then his family, to now not giving a shit about anyone but himself and treating everyone like garbage, including his family that he's still desperately trying to protect. Moronic and senseless change

Two routes exist for a reason imo. If you don't like the MC acting like more of a dismissive douchebag, then don't play the club route? Sure, it might be nice to know in advance that that's how the route will go, but it's not like you don't have saves and the ability to reconsider. I like that it exists so you can really see the difference between the two routes. Asking the hard route to be softened seems pretty silly to me. Might as well also ask for the soft route to be hardened and then fully double the dev's work.

Well, I wouldn't say he was a womanizer, considering how his conscience tormented him after he kissed another girl or had a more risqué interaction. I really think Katrina is influencing his character through magic. Or maybe deep down he's always been like that, and the club's path simply drew out that nature.

Imo, having "Club MC" change character now isn't worth it - a lot of work, and it'll eventually feel too similar to the real estate path. Instead, I think a bit of self-reflection could be handy, with the MC acknowledging his new rude persona and explaining to himself and the players how it's a defensive mechanism caused by trauma of working with Katrina, getting kidnapped and tortured by her. Unlike RE MC, who doesn't have to meet his kidnapper every day and work for her, Club MC doesn't have enough time away from her to heal his psyche properly and has to become someone who can work with a boss like Katrina - and, alas, that means becoming a monster.

NGL, Im a little bit worried about where the story is going. Dont get me wrong, I really enjoy writing and characters. But given how MC behaves (especially on a "working in a club" route), given how all the girls are somewhat a real characters, it is looking like story is going into a full on train wreck of a drama. I understand that MC did almost everything wrong and some ppl might say he really deserve bad ending. Like "I fucked up everything and now I'm out of here" bad.
But want to argue that that would be a little unfair. When I choose to work in a club, there were absolutely no signs that "hello, MC would act like a dick from now on and you have no say in it". Please,for the love of Jesus give my guy a redemption arc. Like, yeah, he is down to his ears in shit, but that doesnt mean he would treat his sister, his mother and all other women in his life as sluts inside his head. It is one thing to enjoy a little power play, and absolutely other to be a misogynist. I didn't sign up for this!
Maybe, that's the point of a story, for a player to feel this distinction, idk.
I will be okay with whatever, as long as author will give us a chance to save at least something in the end of all of it. Redemption arc can be hard, that's ok.
But let's be honest here, after a nice dramatic and thoughtful train wreck culmination we want that sweet, impossible, unrealistic gooner-heaven harem ending.

What are you, my dudes, think?

Idk if he deserves it. If you take the nightclub path, he's become somewhat of an abusive troll. He doesn't need an out. Speaking of which, by taking the real estate path, he shouldn't have Much of an out. He's clearly a gigolo and a lying one at that. He has Emma as a gf, goes after the beach girls, goes after his mom, his boss, his aunt, his sister, his sister's friend. So Where's the consequences for being a lying a-hole? If anything this game did, at least early on, it showed the consequences of the MC's actions, then somewhere down the line, everything changed. I don't know where but it turned into the typical harem trope-fest. Except for Tris who was keeping him honest, the rest of this harem became mindless, dick-hungry whores. Idk, I take the story for what it's meant to be, entertainment but, to have some realistic situations put in, only for the story to turn into typical harem-fare is a little disappointing.
So yeah, either way it goes, the MC should have a bad ending. The only difference is that, with the nightclub path, he should have a near tragic ending, like most pendejos deserve, whereas with the real estate path, he has to sacrifice a relationship. And to be clear Emma should Not be the easy choice for the Mc to have. Maybe Denise, maybe Tris but picking Emma just further diminishes the character and her appearance in the first place.

That is a valid point. However I have to disagree on some points.
"he's become somewhat of an abusive troll" - Yes, he did. But that is not what I choose as a player. Save jumping exists, but lets be serious here, player should receive some signals about consequences of a choice between doing it. Club MC maybe does not deserve a redemption arc. But player does not deserve to play the game of suddenly and abruptly changed MC either. So if this is what we have, give us some meaning here.
"So yeah, either way it goes, the MC should have a bad ending." Maybe, if that is what author have in mind. That would make perfect sense. It is not what I want, but thats valid ending.

 

[Maxirox]

Will see as there is lot more chapters to explore and see where MC goes from here , I have been a fan a love path(RE) for a quite long time, this is the major final season there is lot to cover of him being honest to his LI's and them being okay with him for some or some he needs to make a difficult choice and breakup. It will have multiple happy endings with LI's , revenge endings or whatever but honestly don't know where the club path endings will lead maybe he takes over the club and becomes like katrina or the one you guys suggested maybe some sad endings, sacrifice. But it will be two completely contrast finales.

 

[GarudoSCHE]

but honestly don't know where the club path endings will lead maybe he takes over the club and becomes like katrina or the one you guys suggested maybe some sad endings, sacrifice. But it will be two completely contrast finales.

Considering he's cooperating with the cops, I think we need to move on from there. I think the following will happen:
If you chose the correct option (report to Katrina but without suspicion), then MC will be fine in both paths (at most, in the club's path, he'll get a suspended sentence or have to go into hiding until everyone connected to Katrina is caught).

If you say nothing at all, the threat will remain, but I don’t think Katrina will do anything to Mc or her family. The most she will do is blackmail him so that he does something for her by threatening the family.

Well, if you tell the cops everything about her... Well... There are many scenarios here, even the darkest ones.

Yeah I literally want some action tbh fight with that black guy or katrina gang and put her in place. For all the things she did that black guy even came to the house, I think katrina will kidnap them maybe in future don't know for sure.

 

[Xrisoner]

There are two reasons why I decided not to acknowledged the TV renders too much.
1. The renders were made with AI so I can speed up the process and I didn't want to put too much focus on that.
2. At the time I wrote the text I didn't have the Ai images yet, so I was unsure what I will be able to generate.

Could you please add some spice to the scene by the time for the next episode? Would love to replay that scene.

 

[Nineonenine]

So... seems the game has a love or maledom route...
Which one do you guys recommend? And which has more contents?

Maybe you have played another game

 

[GarudoSCHE]

The content is balanced and features mostly dialogue and a couple of scenes. By choosing a job for your character, you choose the content and their interactions with the girls. You'll also receive additional LIs depending on the job you accept. Which one to try first is a difficult question, but since you're interested in maledom in the game, try the club route first.

 

[XK271]

So... seems the game has a love or maledom route...
Which one do you guys recommend? And which has more contents?

As said, content is roughly equivalent. I'd play both to see which you prefer. I like the love route better but the maledom one gives a good contrast.

 

[Maxirox]

Yes both have same content and li's you get just that some dialogues change and the way you become differs.

 

[XK271]

I'd correct this just a teensy bit... you get a few exclusive scenes with the club owner on the one route and some exclusive scenes with the real estaste girlfriend on the other that aren't duplicated between the two. But they're roughly equivalent in amount of content and the main story is otherwise the same.

It's been awhile and I wasn't paying attention when I unlocked it. But I would guess that you get it by going to grab lunch with Denise instead of Emma. As well as potentially being on Lisa's/Lauren's/Lisa w/Lauren side/Lauren w/Lisa Side path(s). Or Maybe a Denise Solo route. Sorry I couldn't be of any real help, but hopefully I could serve as a guide.

I am really enjoying this game, currently around the middle of season 3. The humor and story dynamics have been fantastic so far. It's a well crafted visual novel with sharp writing and strong character development. The hot scenes are just the cherry on top, but what truly keeps me hooked is the engaging story and how the characters evolve over time.
I haven't read any reviews or comments to avoid spoilers, and while i considered writing a proper review for it, I figured there is already plenty of great content out there for anyone curious enough. I do hope the game maintains its quality all the way to the end. A proper, well timed ending would be ideal with no unnecessary dragging or worse an abandoned game. That would really kill the experience. So i hope this game shines all the way through its final act.
Also, if anyone has recommendations for something similar in taste, something with good writing, balance story, strong character development and nice adult content, please feel free to reply to this post. I'd appreciate it.

I just finished season 1. I really like the story and dynamics but to be honest I found MC keeps cheating on Emma a bit weird.
Everyone thinks MC is a good guy and he think he is too. He constantly says he loves Emma and he does not cheat but the next minute he is cheating. For me it just feels off. If they broke up a bit or they cant keep up with long distance, it might be better.
Other than that I think it is great, especially the dynamics between MC and Tris.

Yes that's what I liked the most in this game writing and character dynamics is great. But we are not supposed to tell other game titles in this game thread.

Yes get you that's why keep multiple saves for this not to spoil anything you will get what to do next in the upcoming episodes.

Hi guys,
How is everybody doing? I hope you had an amazing week so far.

For me, the week started off a bit rough since I got sick, so I couldn’t really focus on making renders or writing text. But that downtime allowed me to do some much needed cleanup in my library. Organizing poses, outfits, and useful assets so I can find everything much more easily. Honestly, it was something I really needed to get done.

Once I started feeling better, I got back to work on the renders. Progress could have been faster, but while posing the scenes I kept adjusting the text here and there to fit better with my vision, so overall I’m happy with how it turned out. Since the first event of the episode kicks off with some drama, I wanted to make sure I captured that feeling as best as I could.

I’ll also be working over the weekend to make up for lost time, but I wanted to give you all a quick update on how things are going.
