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

[Beelzeboss3DG]

"Life is a sinking ship. You may be too young to notice, but you've already hit the iceberg. At some point in the future you'll realize it, and you'll start scrambling. Trying desperately to save what you care about by pushing it to the front of the ship. You may even spend your life trying to fish something from your past out of the water. But these are the errands of a fool. Believe me, those things won't last. Nothing does.

To live is to consume. Devour everything. Experience everything when it's ripe. One of the rarest things in life is knowing what you truly want. Don't be afraid of it. Don't try to preserve it. Take it now.

Don't build a mausoleum of regret. Don't die the thousand deaths of a coward. If you see something you want, don't carry it on your back to the finish line. Carry it in your belly. Live."

This is on legendary hollywood movie quote level.

I think that what makes it so good is that deep down, I kind of agree with it. In that way, Hunter reminds me of Colonel Jessup (Jack Nicholson) from A Few Good Men; sure he's a vile person, but he makes some great points in his speech!

Hahaha he might be an incestuous old coot, but other than that? Yeah, I totally agree with him.

Heck, I uploaded that speech to my Facebook! (with the quotation mark, but didnt have the heart to say "from Hunter, character from an adult game full of wincest Im playing" hahaha)

 

[FoolishFool0]

What Ifs are scenes that would never happen in the main game, i dont think they need much explanation but maybe we see some characters later, like Lucias mom who appears in What If 3 i guess, i dont think Nnenna will appears in the main game but i would love to see more black girls.

What I'm saying honestly, I'd love to see more black girls in these kind of games honestly, and the fact we do have a model for one but we aren't using it it's kind of a waste of a perfectly good character.

Lucia's mom was first scene in the main game in a flash back.

Yeah i remember but she appears with other lady, i believe was MCs grandma, both look young and was in the pass, so i count What If 3 as the first time because of that.

So, got a bit further in the plot, found some spoilers and shit, so I have to ask.

I am a big fan of an eventual trans woman in the harem, and I understand how that might not be everyone's cup of tea and shit, and I understand apparently there is still no actual content about her yet, what little I've seen being fairly... Respectful for now? The jokes did seem in line with the usual good natured humour of this game, not dissimilar to Aliza joking about once being fat and All.

But I do have to ask, can we please, please, please not decay in the trite and extremely boring (if not quite, uh, offensive) Trope of having a trans woman character specifically become a trans woman so she can prey on women and men better or shit like that?

EDIT: Like, it doesn't even need to be that big of a deal or that much work to begin with, just, like, in the case Drew turns out to be an outright villain, which I wouldn't like, mind you, but that's because I like variety in these kinds of games and I feel it's kind of a waste for her not to be a love interest, especially since you might make it, like, a switch thing like the ntr thing, you can get her in the harem if you tick it on, if you tick it off she just, like, drops it and shit.

Like, Just have a small interaction like:

"Ah, so you are pretending to be a woman to sleep with other women!" Or shit like that and have Drew go

"What? No what the fuck? Do you actually think a cis dude would willingly subject himself to all the shit it takes to become and be a trans woman in this country just for some pussy??? I've had facial feminisation surgery, I took hormones to get boobs, had to work every loophole to get any of that because one doctor refused the other needed a psychological evaluation the third was the villain of a gender swap game, every time I get a date on tinder I have to be extremely careful I won't become a victim of a hate crime, do you think I did this just to bang your mom and sisters???"

"Oh, so you... Don't want to fuck them?"

"Of course I want to rail them till they forget their own names and then do the same to you, I am a pervert and I want to fuck multiple people yes but that's completely unrelated to me being a trans woman, for shame Sterling."

I dont see Drew pretending, even Hunter say something about believe him being gay, i guess Drew main target is Sterling, i dont know how far you are in the game but Drew dont seems to be interested in bang the whole family like Hunter.

I'm still in chapter 3 mind you, I just checked some of the comments here hence my worry honestly.

And, like, again, it's a porn game, and it's ultimately up to the author to do anything, and I get not everyone not being into something mind you, but still, I just don't want to cringe hard at an honestly incredibly entertaining and quite subversive game at times falling for such a banal and fairly, again, offensive trope.

I guess we'll have to wait and see. Best case scenario, while she does have NTR shit we might get an actual Trans Content Switch allowing us to date her or have her team up with Sterling or, as someone mentioned in this very thread, "have her and Sterling double team one of the girls" (I hope if we do have a scene like that sterling and drew just, like, high five during it like it's one of those extremely bro-coded threesomes I've seen out there, just to keep up the light humorous tone).

Or if we can't have any of that, I wouldn't mind a what if about it honestly. With, again, the game still being respectful of her identity and not going full mean spirited shit on her.

Hi guys I have searched anything about power vacuum chapter 11 but I couldn't find anything
Do anyone anything chapter 11

You can check the teasers released here and here

 

[QuantumVNs]

I don't think dev needs to be that explicit about the "validity" of Drew's transition, tbh that ends up feeling a bit too much like tokenism. Like you said, she's a predator, just like Hunter, completely independent of their gender. I don't think there's been any indication that Drew is falling into that trope of "trans to trick women," and considering she was already working through family members (men and women) pre-transition I don't think she needed a gimmick. There is also another MTF character who is explicitly not interested in women.
In terms of LI, I'm of the opinion that if they have boobs I'd like my MC to make them bounce.

thank you
May I know from where did you get thoses information?

 

[Teddybear91]

thank you

Well, the main game now takes about six months for each update due to the amount of content added for each chapter.
The What If? mini games now take about two months due to What If? suggestions, voting on the best suggestion and also due to the fact that each new What If? has more content than the previous.

I agree with you about Drew and Sterling teaming up but i believe we are alone in that lol, and like i say, so far, what we know its that Drew is a ts and probably like both gender.

I don't think there's been any indication that Drew is falling into that trope of "trans to trick women," and considering she was already working through family members (men and women) pre-transition I don't think she needed a gimmick. There is also another FTM character who is explicitly not interested in women.
In terms of LI, I'm of the opinion that if they have boobs I'd like my MC to make them bounce.

Honestly, that would also be fine, her being a character treated like any other in the game (especially since, as you mentioned, there seem to be another trans character in the game and that doesn't seem to create issues I hope), it's the whole "she is going to have NTR endings" thing that rings some alarm bells honestly (Especially since I doubt we'd get her as a love interest that way if we're worried about her fucking other women (It's not like Eva has NTR endings with Brenna for example)), but thinking about it with a lucid mind this is probably just me getting worried over nothing, and the game's writing hasn't exactly warranted it yet honestly so I'll just keep an open mind.

And honestly, much like you in terms of people having breasts, my policy with these kind of games is that if the character is attractive there's no need not to fuck them, but I do understand how that's just me being me incarnating the other trite and overused trope of the "hedonistic and depraved bisexual that will bang anything that moves."

The dev just dropped some info on the upcoming release schedule:

You must be registered to see the links

What If? 8 Postponed + Chapter 11 Release Month

Over the next two months(November/December), I won't have much free time; and with Chapter 11 looking like a January release, I've decided that What If? 8 will be the final one before the release of Chapter 11. However, there is still a little bit of time before the holiday season starts and my schedule becomes hectic. So, I've decided to postpone the release of What If? 8 and use the time before Thanksgiving to add more to it. Futa Ophelia is content I probably won't get to make again, so I think it deserves a little more time in the oven.

If you became a $20 tier patron in October for What If? 8 and want to lower/cancel your membership for November, send me a message on Patreon or Discord any time leading up to or after the release and I'll send you the download link when What If? 8 is posted.
