VN Ren'Py Origin Story [v0.6.0] [JDOR]

[Rehwyn]

That's the "plan", but they're untested and unproven, for now. At the very least they'll get whoever takes them high as if they were taking a mild form of Ex, according to Moonsong, anyway. So hooray...experimental drugs...

Technically not unproven if you make the absolutely crazy decision to not be with Evelyn.

If for some reason you do that, she insists on taking the pills so you can have her power and be as strong as you can be. And it works.

Now as for their long-term safety... that's another matter.

Ah, see, I never did the path where you don't get Evelyn involved so I didn't know she pops a pill.

Technically neither did I, but I used URM to view the branch that popped up.

is there going to any romance tag in future or not

Probably? There's already been at least one romantic date, at least one main LI has strong romantic feelings for the MC, and I suspect there will be further potential romantic feelings with main LIs as time goes on.

If you're looking for romantic monogamy specifically however, while that seems to be an option, it does not seem to be the focus. I suspect the primary structure of romantic relationships will be within polyamory, since this is ultimately a pseudo-harem game.

Right? Because who fucking does that?

 

[Nanhai]

I'm lost. MC did or did not get bella's power? If he didn't. How come?

So far, it does not seem so.

As for why, her projections seem to be different from Cat's. There's no reason all projections have to work the same.

Personally, I think it's because Cat's are a very real replica of herself, whereas Isabelle's are a replica of anyone. Even if Isabella chooses to project herself, it seems like it might be "less real" and not carry her metagen.

Edit: A while back, I said this regarding Isabella, Cat, and testing how that worked:

Hey now, repeating studies is an important part of the scientific method because it helps to validate and verify the findings of a study.

In fact, we might need to increase our sample size! For science, of course.

I was only 80% joking. A sample size of 1-2 means practically nothing.

If we really wanted to test it thoroughly we'd want dozens of different replicators/protectors at a minimum. Until then, any conclusions could be considered highly speculative and preliminary at best.

Got a post deleted notification and it seems someone took a lawnmower to the thread, much like the lawnmower that needs to be taken to Lucia's bush (See? Totally on-topic).

Speaking of Lucia, anyone have any bets for how old she actually is now? I'm going to say her dumb ass is pushing 40.

 

[Ka1tzer]

Yup, lawnmower policy indeed. Ah well

I was pretty disappointed by the railroading at the end there... I guess having Evelyns power is totally vital to the main plot because it made no sense at all. It has always been obvious that she is a pretty disturbed individual... although that is totally understandable given how her power is a nightmare mindfuck that forced her into the worst situations you can imagine. What doesn't make sense is that she would want someone she is supposed to love to have to suffer the same way she has... and that that even when it gives you the rare option to try and avoid the mc thinking with his dick you still don't get to avoid taking a power that has basically destroyed his best friends life... And her weirdly compulsive and aggressive pushing it earlier in the day should have been red flag city...

What?

I want to say other things, but I can't think of how to say them politely.

 

[Skylaroo]

And her weirdly compulsive and aggressive pushing it earlier in the day should have been red flag city...

I agree. Her behavior was really concerning. I ended up saying no to her in that playthrough just because how pushy she suddenly became. Then it's kind of weird how she was so quickly to be ok after that too. It's like her personality had an on/off switch that I ended up wondering if she was under someone's control or something.

Even when playing on her path, it still felt weird how aggressive she became. It's like she's a different person than the previous chapters. I tolerate her more on this path though.

What do yall want to bet that MC tripped over Amber when he was running his clone around like a dork?

I would suggest that those 2 were comic relief....

But I didn't think about falling over amber...

Damn don't do that to her.... That would be mean...

 

[Pyromanci]

I wonder if you'll feel the same about being mean to her after the next instalment... It could be that her behaviour shifts and previous hints of instability (again fair... not judging) are just to shoe in a plot device that allows the mc to learn all he needs to from people without having to show any signs of intelligence.... But it would actually make way more sense if Evelyn is still incredibly angry that the mc gave his virginity to a girl he barely knew while suspecting that she was linked and would have to live the heartbreak in person... so now she wants to force him to have her power and link with her then go to all the nastiest shit she ever had to suffer through so he can feel the same kind of trauma he made her go through. I don't know if the creators are brave enough to alienate the Evelyn fans tho... so it may just be lazy writing. Stayed tuned I guess...

yeah i cant see this happening, the mc cant control the power and its random who he sees so she would have no way of executing her plan.

I thought it was touch... so to make sure it was her she would just have to spend the whole day with him and be the only person he touched that day...

If You look When Evelyn enter the room ( when she's on top kissing ) you can see the door being open then closed. So Amber might be here watching 100% haha

The revenge idea is interesting but I don't think it'd make sense in the context we have. This revenge is for the path where MC didn't choose Evelyn anyway, so making him experience it just doesn't hit the same way as it did for her.

Thanks for clearing that up.

 

[markblazes]

This game has some incredible girls, Evelyn is by far one the best LI's I've ever seen. Well done! I can't wait to see more updates!

So I read the Dev notes about a slow start.... but I'm 3 chapters in with the most meaningful choice being whether to give a homeless woman some change.

I am not a fan of VNs; I prefer games. Should I bother keep going or did it start as it means to continue?

... You've been around long enough to know how this site works dude. If you're not a fan of VN's then why are you playing them, expecting them to be something they aren't?

Hell, this site in general the overwhelming majority of games on here are VN's



Just filter them out.
