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

[maynardkeynes65]

Drew is going to be a very interesting character. From the diaries of Sterling's father, he was innocent (Hunter even suspected he was homosexual) until he met Lucia's mother and then Hunter capitalized on those feelings. We know in the end Drew was transformed, but we still don't know the how.

There will always be the possibility that Drew was eager to learn how to become a dio del sesso (something quite cliché if you ask me), but maybe; and just maybe, he actually put some resistance. Perhaps he is the Sterling of the bad ends, perhaps Hunter took Lucia's mother in front of his eyes and "broke him" in order to rebuilt him (the very same thing Hunter said he wanted to do with Sterling). If this is true, then we are about to play some hardcore storyline development from the best dev of all times.

On the one hand, we can explore the Evil Sterling persona (in the Rickest sense of the term) without making our MC suffer, yet still making him grow as a character (plus the "ntr is only in the bad ends" rule would still prevail). On the other hand, this could legitimize Drew as a true wild card, in which he wants to ntr the living korean sauce out of anyone, but could still be content for another type of revenge against Hunter (and a deathly alliance). Depending on the execution, the simple "the scorpion and the frog tried to cross the river" tale could bring suspense to the very end.

Even if it is just the first possibility, I will still love this game to the core! WWG is just so passionate and you can read his dedication in every joke and small detail. Hopefully later today we will get to see another teaser.

Agreed. Hunter wants a true successor, but still be alpha. I mean he has said he is okay with sharing, but he wants them first. Problem is Sterling Does Not Share. So, there cannot be 2 alphas (3 when Drew enters the picture), someone must bow before the TRUE ALPHA.

Drew was never an Alpha. He was well aware his old man was banging the girls and was a follower not a leader. Hunter underestimated Sterling thinking him similar (he started as a skinny, useless around women virgin... dont think he expected he would beef up and accidentally end up with a dick which could double as a forklift lol). Naturally id argue Hunter was never an Alpha either - hes a craven coward in every scenario and is afraid of Sterling physically, his bravado is only behind the veneer or blackmail and his ways with women seem to fall down to most part emotional corruption and drugs. Drew was Hunters son all right but Sterling was his old mans - his father was an alpha all right. He stood no shit from literally anyone once he found out what had been happening behind his back.

 

[dartred]

yeah, i expect them. WWG hasn't been late on teasers in what? over a year? he's got a great track going.

 

[Dazzier31]

Oooooh, that would be a good plot twist, the deadly alliance being between Sterling and Drew. The joke would die mind you, but as long as Sterling does not meet Kung Lao on the other side I'm willing to make the sacrifice.

Thank you. You're a true hero.

I find it funny how these two were mostly absent in chapter 8 and now they return in a big way. Also, I never would have thought those two would get to interact. This is just gold.

Also, did Aliza and Eva have a scene? I don't think Eva talked with anyone except Brenna, Ophelia and Catherine (oh, I guess there was a scene with Hunter where she passed him in the corridor and a bad end).

So i just caught back up and i was shocked to find out i didn't actually complete all of chapter 7. When i saw that Hunter thing, i legit thought this went too far. I hope to god Lucia isn't our aunt. Either way she's our cousin but this would be seriously fucked up if she's Hunter's child. It was fine when he was basically harmless but to have it be revealed that he really did do fucked up stuff is a whole other thing.

Since i never mentioned Tiff last update(since i didn't even comment on it) I'll start by saying she's hot but i feel like she's a filler/distraction character. Not saying i don't want her in the game. I just feel she adds nothing to the story. Atleast with Mallory, she interacted with some of the characters, storywise. I might be a bit biased since Mallory is my favorite woman in the game.

To finish, this update was great. There was a lot of progression with some of the girls and it didn't feel like a drag like some parts in earlier releases did. Catherine's party was good and the scene afterwards with her was great. I know she can be annoying but i find her domineering and aggressive behavior to be extremely cute.

Moving on, spending time with Lucia and getting even closer to her was nice. Her playing The Manor was a funny to see since i play that game myself. While Aunt Lucia has a nice ring to it i hope she's just our double cousin(regular cousin is already out the window). I don't even have to mention Ophelia or Brenna who were both basically the stars of the update for me.

Honestly, Hunter should become a limp dick bastard by the end. Killing him wouldn't be enough for all the shit he does to people, atleast for me. He should get ED and suffer from it. I can't wait for next update though. With Drew coming(hopefully not cumming) i wonder how different he's going to be. I Hope for some more appearances from Mallory since Brenna, Aliza and Lucia cucked me this update. Also some Aliza time too since it's been a minute(minus the BJ of course). Looks like my Mallory wish is granted from the preview pictures above.

I feel like WWG is shooting his narrative wad with these teasers. I'll be in my bunk ...

By the way, what would be a good estimate for when sex with the mom might become available? Like would it be reasonable to expect something in this update or is that more chapter 10-11-12 material?

 

[dartred]

your guess is as good as any my guy lol. it's like you say, anything would just be an estimate, but i'll try to take a guess. I see maybe Brenna get a sex scene this update. With that said, I think the big ONE O (10) update will be saved for a special occasion, aka Ophelia sex scene. at least, that's my hope.

yeah i thought for sure we'd get brenna scene this past update too was sad but still good content

 

[Teach185]

Every teaser so far has been 8 days apart, with five making 31%. So if my math is correct a late September or early October release.

Full on Sex? She will be the last girl to be conquered. She's been by far the one most resistant to going too far and has been the one STERLING has been pushing boundaries with not the other way around such has been her strong will in the Hunters schemes which have had much more dramatic effects on the others in the household by now. This update i would imagine Azela is on the cards, maybe Brenna or Amber (the three most likely though im wondering if we will get Amber lesbian actions before we get to play hide the sausage with her). After those we will need to get down and dirty with Kumiko, Teff and Lucia (as well as the recently introduced Becca should she turn into a recurring character) all of which will be before the mom.

Anyway as for recent teasers - im enjoying seeing more of the characters interact with one another. The cast has gotten progressively more and more stacked but too often there has been little overlap despite how often most of the side characters tend to show up as WWG has focusing on keeping the ball rolling with the main cast progression wise. The party was a great change of pace in that regards and i want to see more unexpected pairings like the super promiscuous bi Eva finding out that Catherine has allegedly taken an interest in girls and maybe wanting in on the action (blissfully unaware how much Catherine loathes her as shes so competitive and conscientious regarding her access to Sterling) or Amber the virgin seeking out the advice of an experience older lady on how to best please a man in Mallory or Lucia and Ophellia bonding over an unlikely shared passion for porn games lol

Yeah, been following this game on the eaves until things with Ophelia get more serious and it looks really good and promising.

I have noticed a bit of character creep though, and hope the creator doesn't go overboard with it. I've found the sweet spot is usually around 4 love interests to keep a compelling narrative that doesn't feel too watered down with each update.

Not that you can't manage more, but I can count on one hand the number of games that I've seen stick the landing with a large cast of characters when they finished. Better to keep the narrative focused than risk bloating it too much.

 

[Ezzeh]

Does anyone know why it does not open the game for me? I double-click it and the blue loading circle appears next to the cursor, but the game never opens.

 

[NeroZee]

Looks like we are in for a 3-some.

Also Sterling and Brenna are watching Die Hard 3, IMO an underrated movie.
