Ren'Py Power Vacuum [Ch. 12 Official] [What? Why? Games]

[Fayn Arawn]

So here it's just a reluctance to make more than one path, perhaps because of the complexity of such a thing. Nothing more.

If this game had a full NTR path and a vanilla path, it would be two separate stories developed in parallel, which would take twice as long to make. No one wants that.

The way this game implements NTR is fresh and novel. Each NTR event is a separate branch off the original timeline, so they're always a surprise. An NTR route would be too boring for most players, as pinkie96 mentioned it would be a "cuck simulator" because the main character would endure endless humiliation.

Try to view the story as something like a time-travel movie, when something bad happens you go back and avoid it, but then new bad things can happen instead. It keeps the audience interested to see what might happen.

2, unless you count the first chapter as a real scene, then 3.

Spoiler: all ntr scenes

How do you get the ntr scene between Aliza and Kevin in chapter 3 ? I never saw that one

 

[dartred]

Whose fault is it that the protagonist is so squeamish that he immediately cuts off all other options. Sometimes I'm even ashamed to play for this klutz.)

I don't know if you only watched the sex scenes and held CTRL during dialogue, but Hunter is black mailing Sterling to keep quiet. He is not allowed to tell anyone about Hunters plans or he will kick them all out of the house and at the start of the game, no one was making money. they would have been homeless. It's not like Sterling did nothing either. every choice scene was him thwarting Hunter in some way.

He couldn't truly act until he had enough evidence to even prove all his claims that Hunter was up to something. If he made those claims early, there was no way he could have proved Hunter was really doing all the things he claimed. It was last chapter where he had enough evidence and tools. He had Lucia and Drew to back up his claims. The truth telling gas. the video footage. the vault with gun and diary.

It was a matter of biding his time. Not that he was a coward.

it happens directly after the Hunter scene. When you are walking her home. i forget what option you choose, but it should be obvious.

Why did you decide that I mean his relationship with Hunter? Not at all, I mean his relationships with women, in which his only initiative is an occasional erection. And even that is not always work...

sorry. you didn't say who you were talking about, but you were talking about NTR so Hunter was where i thought you were going with it.

For Me

I prefer bad ends opposed to a NTR route. An NTR route would get boring and have no story, I also don't want a cuck simulator.

The bad ends have provided a lot of different enjoyable scenarios to have as side content for the main story. Rather than very limited branching paths that try to maintain consistency within the full story which leads to little depth and slow development.

I wonder how DARK this last chapter's bad end would be, ch12 we got Hunter killing Lucia and Drew, and having Sterling with no arms and legs. What else can he do to Sterling now? WWG will definitely surprise us

Those will be hard to top. It's hard to imagine because it doesn't feel consistent with the characters, but maybe the ladies somehow get corrupted to turn against Sterling and harm him somehow, or Hunter harms the ladies in some heinous way.

I haven't played the game in a long time but am I remembering correctly that Sterling finally gets to play the victim once the girls finally found out he wasn't lying about Hunter the whole time? It feels nice to be able to play the victim sometimes and say "I fucking told you so!!"

 

[dartred]

I can only think of one way that this can go darker than ever and that is if Hunter comes back and deploys no tricks, no gas, no drinks, just straight rapes the women.

Yeah we get way more NTR this way I feel like lol

Or even worse we find out they want him without any tricks

The big confrontation with Hunter only just happened right at the end of Chapter 12. Then new Annabelle showed up, Hunter escaped, and the chapter ended. So I guess we'll see in Chapter 13?

Thats what I am thinking.

This game is very successful on patreon. so apparently it's for a lot of people? for one, i love the way it's handled. it's different from NTR routes because every time is the woman's first time being NTR'd and the first time the MC is being NTR'd. so their interactions with the NTR are always different. The NTR doesn't get dull because the woman is already won over, they can't be stolen anymore then they already are. If it was a route that is.

I'm not sure that it's for a lot of people. As a vanilla fan, I wouldn't support this game knowing that there is NTR content being developed and that is delaying the release of the update. Because it's nice for people who like NTR content, since they get a huge-ass update, but for vanilla/non-ntr fans the update is relatively smaller.
Hence, wouldn't mind pledging back when WWG develops his new game.

This line of reasoning is funny given that if you and other vanilla fans supported then you could've voted for vanilla content
