VN Ren'Py Origin Story [v0.8.2] [JDOR]

[Rehwyn]

To me the dumb shtick that main girls can do nothing bad is indicative of bad/sloppy writing.
And thats why i say that morals in OS are fucked.
Asshole men will be slain without repercussions, but if it's a girl? my goodness she can be fixed, so let me get those velvet gloves to not hurt her.

Also, terminal velocity of a phone is ~60km/h. so that might kill, but definetly wont penetrate as if it's an iPod in a dock. And terminal velocity can be reached if the phone is falling for ~2+ seconds, so a phone dropped from an apartment building will have the same deadliness as from a plane.

It's a little annoying to be honest that you keep characterizing attempted rape and murder as just being an "asshole". It's much more than just being an asshole.

Not really sure what the phone has to do with this conversation. Just pointing out an unrelated potential technical inconsistency?

Doctors told her mother that the impact was like a small missile or flying object hitting at a high rate of speed.

“They did tell her she was really lucky because it could have killed her,” Heidi Gillespie added.

Yes the phone was weirdly inconsistent with how it would have been IRL, Evelyn describes it as if it's how Huey's GF was vaporized by A-train, while IRL it would look like more getting hit in the head by baseball ball, just dropping dead with a thud.

So the punishment for attempted rape and murder is execution, but if you're a girl it's prison time.

I'm not sure if I buy the Riley / Ghostraven theory. Riley seemed very adamant that we should not put ourselves in danger again this chapter. Then, later, after the fight, Ghostraven seems to arrive while we are inside the cage fighting, since she knows we saved Ruth.

Sure, we saved one of her friends, but if she were Riley, I think she would have stayed with us until she was sure we were fine, maybe even tried to scold us for being in a dangerous situation after the conversation we had.

Either she's acting a lot, or they are just two different people.

I agree. Ghost Raven doesn't have the same physical features as Riley does (and Riley has one blue eye covered by her hair...that GR doesn't have).

Also the image below actually has Ghost Raven without her mask on.

Are you talking about Chokehold now? If so, I think in her case it's 1) plot purposes so MC can scry her and learn about the heist and 2) she was disabled and at no further risk of running away or attempting murder. I'm pretty sure if she had been killed prior to that it'd have had about the same legal repercussions, to be honest. Though possibly far more publicity fallout due to being on live TV in front of an audience. Then again, she very vocally expressed her intent to murder Lady Steel, so killing her could easily have been characterized as self-defense (prior to her being unconscious).

Finished my run and have missed some scenes due to some of my choices. I tried using the universal unocker, both hard and soft, and neither worked. The soft doesn't work at all, the hard makes the scenes appear in the gallery, but present errors when I try to watch the scenes I haven't unlocked through gameplay.

Could someone savyy in ren'py coding hook us up with a proper gallery unlocker for this game?

 

[snakeplisskin]

DA and BE have a recent port each. The DA port has a fixable (by URM) dead end bug. I dont know if its in the original release too.

Regarding Ruth: hell yes, she was on my to do list (ba dum tss) since her first appearance...

I forgot about DA's as i use BE's. However can say that currently BE's isn't working right.

And Steel lady couldnt just clasp the dude in her hands as if you're transferring an insect outside of your home? Her default is to murder it seems.
Yes doing stuff for plot reasons is fine, but if it's inconsistent with previously established rules then it comes off as wonky writing.

Perhaps, but he could still expand in that case, possibly with similar results to her hands as would have happened to her pelvis.

First of all, is there anyone so heartless to turn down Amber and Ruth?
Secondly, I had to redo all the saves because Lucia's normal route is better (but only because of Emerald who, if left alone for more than two minutes, does stupid things).
Thirdly, thank God, Evelyn has regained her personality (but only in Lucia's normal route).

Fourth Ruth is definitely in the running for best girl, but I'm still holding out hope for Amber & Riley

I wouldn’t call it heartless. The MC is unintentionally affecting people’s freedom of will and stripping away their rational thinking little by little with his power.

If the MC’s power was in the hands of some other character, chances are that we would view that person as a villain.

One thing to expand from inside, which is a valid tactic from "the boys".
But if he's in her hands, all that would do is just unclasp them, same as if you're clasping a balloon that is being filled.
Would she even be damaged if he expanded in her urethra? She seems to have universal hulk toughness. All that the mini guy would do is become meat paste if he tried expanding as if he's in a closed metal box.

I get your perspective, but in Amber's case, she's wanted him for years - far longer than his power has been manifested. So even if it's influencing her a bit now, it's not in a direction contrary to what she already wanted.

In Ruth's case, even if his power is an influence, it's nonetheless true that she does want him and he might be the only guy she can safely be with. If anything, his power might be a perk here. How much would it suck not to be attracted to the only person you could be with?

That depends on the force and velocity of his expansion. A firecracker going off in your hands is going to do a lot more damage than a balloon, despite both just being an outward force. And I don't think it's clear precisely how fast it happens for him. In any case though, even at a slower rate, that implies that just clasping him in your hands might not be an effective restraint tactic.

As for if he actually would hurt her, it's a bit unclear. But her words at the time implied that she was legitimately concerned about the damage he could do, so I lean towards it actually being a threat.

Really enjoyed this chapter can't wait for season 2.

 

[MrBenny]

Well I'm really liking this reworked story, as it now has a lot of decent content. And I'm hoping with the next update, we will see more of MC interacting intimately with Parker and her daughter...instead of them constantly leaving the home and not hearing from them very often.

And I'm also happy the developer decided to add the safe mode feature, which allows the player to hide the knowledge of Parker's random one night stands with random dudes. As we find out that she been doing this because she's attracted to the main character, and sates her desires for him by being with other young men. Also Parker stated she been calling out MC's name at times when she been intimate with them (and this knowledge only happens if you don't have safe mode on).

And yes, I realize Parker isn't with MC yet. It's just not very apealling for many knowing she is being sexual with others, all because she wants to be intimate with the MC (she is using others to sate desires for MC...is odd for a harem story). So it's great there is a user choice to hide that info, and as well a choice for anyone who isn't into lesbian sharing content.

Thank you JDor for all your detailed work and efforts with your excellent harem title.

Mini guy is not strong when hes mini, unlike ant-man. so her actually using force to have a good clasp would lead to the mini guy becoming a cripple if he tried expanding in her hands.

I think you missed my point. A firecracker going off in your hands is going to fuck them up even if you're holding it loosely. The force and velocity of the expansion is what matters, not her or his grip.

It all depends on how durable Lady Steel actually is. If the guy shrank down and crawled into a metal box where he then expanded.. what would happen?

This touches on what I said here:

The answer is we don't really know for sure. But she seemed concerned, and knows her power much more than we do at this point.

It's so funny how obvious it is that the dev wanted to make an NTR game but didn't have the courage.

No straight guy without a cuck fetish would write a scenario where your LIs are touched by another guy and have the best orgasms of their life. C'mon, who are you kidding... It's like a straight game having a random scene where you wrestle butt naked with your male friend.

Either make an NTR game or a harem game, there is no pleasing both crowds. That's probably why the game is less popular than it deserves to be.

Lots and lots of kegels...
