VN Ren'Py Our Red String [Ch.13.2 Full] [Eva Kiss]

[boulimanus]

im interested as well. He's probably just guestimating this. I highly doubt there is anyways to track this. lol

It doesn't matter as one dev would hardly be evidential.
There are many reasons why a site like this could fail to bring any supporter to a dev. For example if such dev was to be confrontational and tell everyone how the site isn't helping and they don't need them to be successful.
On the way to track it however it would be very easy, if the dev would have a poll asking how its supporters heard of them. But to be able to make conclusions on the effectiveness of the site itself as a whole, you'd need a lot of data.

It should be funny, but Axel from this game looks a lot like the hero of mine (in terms of name and appearance).I'm not implying anything, however, I started development back in 2019

The only thing they have in common is that they're both pale and have slicked back blonde hair. Axel looks like half a dozen other Scandinavian (especially Swedish) male models, especially with his jaw and facial structure, which is a pretty easy go-to choice to make when wanting to create a very masculine looking alpha male model type of character. see:

Lol. Yup, we were actually inspired by Thomas Liden on 4 pic.

I am sorry but I have to disagree I agree that we can talk about pirate games and if its wrong to do and all this kind of stuff no problem but start a twitch account know even if you are the most funny person on earth you will have zero viewers nobody will no that you exist and its very hard to build a fanbase without anyone knowing you exist I garantee you 100% that a lot of games that good big would never be big without this kind of sites if you are skilled people will now that you exist and some poeple will start supporting you than people on patreon will know that you exist with a certain number in patreons than you can go on steam with the fanbase that you already have and new people will come in and they will now that you exist and maybe new supporters will come in but this only works if you have an existing fanebase as i say make a twitch account now unless you have a twitter or tik tok channel with 1000 or more of people or a big streamer firend it will be almost impossible even if you are the most skilled/funniest or whatever guy.

That's why places such as playforceone exist, where the devs can advertise their games (upload a demo or a full game). Out of > 100k people checking the demos, you are likely to find at least 100 more patrons.

On the way to track it however it would be very easy, if the dev would have a poll asking how its supporters heard of them. But to be able to make conclusions on the effectiveness of the site itself as a whole, you'd need a lot of data.

Don't need to do a poll if you remember when you had big influx of patrons and compare it to your promotion on this forum. While this site sure helped me kickstart my Patreon a bit, it was nowhere near serious until Eva promoted my guide as the official one on her Patreon. Only then I went from nearly 20 patrons to almost 70 in a single month. Although I'm not a developer that has their game listed in "Latest Updates" section, which I imagine gives a bit more visibility, but still, it's something to think about.

I was disappointed to see she de-emphasized the BBC fetish and just made it big cocks for Lena to be into. I was hoping Ian/Lena could have something of a QoS ending that we never got in GGGB

Well, she "kinda" did if Ashley stayed with Eric but made all the other right (or wrong) choices. But I'd hardly call what they had in the end an actual relationship. Ashley just went all evil super-cunt, despising and using Eric through to the game's conclusion. Not really a satisfying ending based on the writing. Ash staying with someone she absolutely despised, just to toy with him, was a bigger stretch than the three she got at the pool party. The tracings at the end of that path were from some of the worst porn imaginable, too. But TBF, the ending was there.

At this point in ORS though, dildo will be retconned to pink with green polkadots by chapter 11. I just know the original set-up was supposed to be Ian watching Lena take that ridiculous Darth Vader Dong on stalkerfap, jacking like crazy while he did it, thus further opening the path you described. But with the recent retcons, including Bleached Billy, it's clear Eva's intentionally going back on those plans quite a bit, possibly due to a number of fans gripes with that content or worries about negative reactions on Steam.

Yeah, this update has taken a long time... but Eva is my favorite developer by far and one of the best developers on the site. So many games push out an update and it's about 10 minutes of content for a 5 month wait. Horrible. Eva's chapters are longer and longer and they are meaty.

Eva never disappoints and through 2 games now has only shown that she wants her games to succeed.

A famous person said: Better late than never...

It's a funny thing, but that's just the way it is with adult games.

 

[Ragnar]

Just a FYI, and because this narrative REALLY needs to die.

F95 brings about a tenth of a percent of Patreons. That's what some data has shown to another dev.
So no, this forum doesn't benefit the developer. You are WAY MORE susceptible to get new patreons from Discord than from this site.

As for raising awareness yeah, sure it does. But with the types of posters we've had lately I doubt it's positive. Again, Discord proves to be way more tempered and most of people's time and energy is usually spent actually discussing the game. Not ruminating about whether or not Eva stole the money to fly away to the Caribeans.

Same. I get why she did it but it was a bit unnecessary imo. There's still potential for some really good and hot routes though (like with Holly) so hopefully those end up being pretty good

Must be a vocal minority. Blacked has been one of the most popular porn studios out there for years. The market is there and, ironically, she'd probably have a huge boost if she got the courage to go all in. She almost nailed it in GGGB

Same. I get why she did it but it was a bit unnecessary imo. There's still potential for some really good and hot routes though (like with Holly) so hopefully those end up being pretty good

Yeah there's still some hot stuff, and we still do have Jeremy and the bouncer even if Billy got retconned. Did she say why she did it or are we just assuming it was outcry from the "money"?

 

[Trasher2018]

Uff - thats a hard decision to make. Not sure what I want tbh.

Now we will probably get the full chapter 10 around Christmas in the best case - more realistic is Feb/march? Chapter 9 released in Nov 2021. Yes we got the remaster, but that is not a really the same as a new chapter.

Then its a whole year for the new chapter (from ch9 remaster, april 2022). And sure - she says that the half 10 chapter is as big as chapter 5, but hey .. that is maybe the problem ^^

I think she should have tried this approach (Ian now, Lena later) for chapter 10 and see how it works for her and the players. After that she could try to change how she handles the next chapter - maybe more switches to get a shorter update with both sides out for chapter 11 part 1/part 2.

But ok - now we have to wait ...

 

[Reaurt]

Hi am new to the game and enjoying it so far. I was wondering though how much of the game is completed? Are we talking 25% or 50% or something else?

Hard to say, the developer hasn't really set any hard end goals outside of it being at least 20 chapters. So, provided she ends up completing the game, under 50%?
