Ren'Py Abandoned Patronus [v3.2.72 Final] [DVE Games]

[Helpless Noob]

How do I re-assign a slave to work at the brothel? I bought Fasti and Inga and trained them to be able to work. I unassigned Inga from work one day and can't figure out how to reassign. I tried also unassigning Fasti and closing/opening the brothel but now i just have a brothel with no workers.

Fixed: have the slave follow you somewhere then return them to the brothel.

How find Improved Incense and Fine Silk to upgrade Villa and Brothel to level 2 ?

I have no option to travel outside starting regions...

it’s in a neighboring region. I don’t know why you can’t travel to them, after you get through the tutorial bit you should be able to go to any of the 5 or 6 regions.

had so many potential...

 

[Yandere Lover]

That sucks this was Abandoned.

 

[Dipp3n]

I understand that it is abandoned but does anyone know if the developer is still working on this?? It was abandoned before and they were still updating.

They had trouble with the engine already long ago. RenPy causing huge lag from all the scripts with the time cycle and all that.

But then Russia invaded the Ukraine, and it seems like this was a project with developers on both sides of the border.
Don't expect this to ever get updated again.

Well that's a shame. This game was pretty fun maybe something else like this will come out in the future.

I wouldn't bet on it. People with this kind of knowledge and passion are hard to find. Especially when combining that with money to burn on development (this game hardly ever got any kind of meaningful support).

This game is like an AAA game but then with sex, and controversial sex (slavery, incest) as well.

That puts it in a really difficult spot. Development costs and time are too high for a porn VN / Patreon business model, but Steam or game publishers won't touch it due to sex content.

My guess is that DVE Games is an historian or archeologist who somehow won the lottery or something.

Yeah I agree. For me personally I love time period based games Roman times especially. I understand it may be controversial for a few reasons just ashame that developers can't just make the game and people either play it or not instead if they don't like it they try to suppress the game and bash it just because they don't like it. It's ridiculous.

One of the things I like about history in general is that people used to think in completely different ways about certain topics than we would even dare to admit today. And yet, in many cases, these people still seem relatively normal to us.

Even more so, because several people who are already long dead are still educating us on how to live our lives, like Moses, Jesus or Mohammed if you are religious, but also Plato or Confucius if you are not religious.

Yet even if we appreciate Plato's philosophies, the actual 4th C. B.C. Athens would be quite an alien place for us. Even more so if we specifically focus on the sexual morals of that time. I think for many it would be too weird to enjoy, even through the comfort and safety of a computer screen.

I agree anything that involves deep thinking be it Books, Games, Movies, etc. I also study the human mind and human behavior, I find humans fascinating. If I had to choose any media I love period pieces. Back when humans relied on there basic instincts to get through live and not being shackled in a sense with how society is right now.

Is it better now?? Of course without order we would live in anarchy and the weak would suffer and quality of life would be unthinkable.

So I enjoy these games with mature elements. It's just like anything else you transfer into that character and you play him or her story. I sometimes enjoy harem games, do I want a harem? No. Would I cheat on my significant other as I do in these games?? Absolutely not. Do I want a sex slave to do anything I want?? Hell no but it's the adventure that I enjoy to take a break from my reality and jump into another it's fascinating.

Their discord is dead, several of the key members are in ukraine. Game was pretty awesome but most likely will never be finished ;(

 

[thunderkiss321]

The Ancients had no concept of Chivalric Love and would think that building marriage based on Romantic Love was the height of foolishness. That's what mistresses or concubines were for.

 

[BlaHard]

There were no real progress since their main developer left the project. The new project leader admitted he only provided the money and wrote some dialog. You know He provided the money for a crowdfund project...
Truth is because the project was good it attracted volunteers but talents soon realize they can create their own crowd fund project and cut out the middle man. This Ukraine narrative may or may not be true. I saw crowdfund projects go bust and blame it on the summer heat. The last update was an engine rework and bugfix. It was named bugfix than it was renamed to final. You don't name your latest version final when you have plans to continue. You also don't name it bugfix because you can't loose the abandoned prefix like that. I was ready to apologize for my former skepticism but 1 year past again I don't see any reason for it.

This is as true as the line at the beginning of Fargo “all of these events are true”
