VN Ren'Py Radiant [v0.7.1] [RK Studios]

[MrFriendly]

No there wasn't. Mc had a girlfriend (which u could breakup with, if i remember right) and the game was abandoned before there was sex with MC/daughter.



1. That would be simply incest and not adultery, as MC is not married.
2. More important, why would u avoid the 3 maingirls ?
I mean if i want raise/take care of family in a morality correct way I play the Sims or turn off the pc...

Occasionally I like to play a game counter to expectations. In that I want to see how linear a game is/how much freedom a developer gives to players. Of course it is rare to find an adult game that gives you any leeway. Most force you into sex sooner or later. Only a few, mostly sandbox games, allow you to completely avoid sex and still "play". But at that point all you are doing is earning money/going to school/working out. I've yet to play a game which allowed me to avoid all sex but progress the story.

And really why would a Dev allow that? After all it would be odd to write a game and then allow the player to avoid the story completely. As you said there's always The Sims

i think this game similar to our fate by cedsense but in this game do we will have a option to raised and care the daughter without commiting any adultery

That option is present in Our Fate as well. You don't have to cheat on your girlfriend, and I'm not entirely sure but I think you can skip sex with your girlfriend as well.

Compared to Our Fate, Radiant seems a bit lighter and a bit less realistic.
But I'm not complaining!

This is off topic for this game but even in The Sims you can have incest. (PC version anyway.)

Isn't that with fan made mods though?

I always find it odd that people get so worked up about fictional sex (incest or otherwise). I understand that our IRL society is of a puritanical origin but there should be some ability to separate fiction from reality. Or at least people can and should make the effort to avoid the parts they dislike. Radiant has the "some random kids show up" version if people want to play it.

Anyway, really excited to see this game develop.

Yes i can understand that, i also like to try out what limits of freedom/choices a game offers.
That u can avoid girls u dont like (sexual or as Li), persure single or harem endings and so on.
But in the case of this game it seems strange to me, if u want to play it, but avoid the daughters which are the main girls and focus...
Pretty much what u said at the end, why play a game and than avoid the major part of it.

You can play GTA and kill everyone and thats okay but when it gets to virtual sex...

Right? We are so messed up. LOL

GTA gets in more trouble for scantily clad women than for the number of characters who die in the game.

I just wish that games like Radiant were more common (games which view story as important instead of just creating fuck-fantasies). I'd be a very happy gamer if we were spoiled for choice when it comes to well thought out and written adult games.

You could set up characters to be your Mom, sister, cousin, etc, then have the male character that was you romance them, kiss them, and have pixelated sex with them, so technically it was incest, no mods required.

Also, totally with you on the whole puritanical stuff. I'm all for loosening the laws a bit, even though it wouldn't benefit me. Consensual sex between close-age relatives would be a good start, but at the very least they need to get rid of the step relations stuff because it's technically considered incest to have sex with your non-blood related step-sister. How ridiculous is that?

I totally agree with you in that "Story>>>>>> sexy time" but people will always complain no matter what. Make the game story focused and shortly a bunch of horny fappers will be asking for more sexy content. Make the game too sexually focused and in most cases the game becomes a boring fuckfest where no choice actually matter and no consequences whatsoever.
There are truly awesome stories told out there. Pity that many times they don't get the support (I think) they deserve. I always claim that in the end if the game is good support will go to them. And then get disappointed when I see very good games getting almost no support and other totally trivial stories get several thousand dollars a month just because of a few nice renders and because you can fuck your family very fast. But hey, people support what they like, who are we to judge them?

I made a promised before that I plan to keep: If I ever discover I am Jeff Bezos' secret son I will give all those awesome developers a million dollars. Radiant will get 3M. Cause, you know, triplets!

Totally feel you on this one, even moreso after just having a rather infuriating conversation on the BaDIK thread where I was saying that it's a good thing to have a game that you can appreciate and discuss in deep ways and the opposing argument was basically that it's just a sex game and it doesn't need to be looked at in a deep way, and that nobody is interesting in that kind of discussion.

So unfortunately, it seems like a bit of an uphill battle for these games to be taken more seriously, but more games like Radiant will hopefully help that cause.

Oh god, I've had to avoid some threads because of the complaints about lack of sexual content or "too much story" getting in the way. I mean, there is actual porn for that. I am playing adult games for the story and then the porn too. BaDIK is one of the best out there, I've played it multiple different ways so that I have a save for each woman I am interested in - so 4 (I think). I am hopeful that Radiant will turn out to be on par with that game. Too early to tell but it has a promising start.

Exactly. There's a reason they're called "visual novels", but some people seem to have forgotten that fact. Not all VNs have good stories and some don't really have much of a story at all, but the ones that do like BaDIK, A Wife and Mother, Connected and Radiant are deserving of a good, deep discussion now and again.

God, i'm really in love with this game. Amazing soundtrack and story so far

Games like acting lessons and deluca family really gave me some of the great memorable moments and I am pretty sure this one's gonna join it for sure..

 

[Elinan]

Oh, we reached to last goal on patreon, nice! After initial release. Have that ever happened before?

 

[albul]

This must be the fastest rise i have seen for an adult game on patreon. I get that the two members of the team already had an established fanbase, but it's not like the patrons moved to the new game, their existing games seem to have the same amount of support (or even more). Congrats, let's just hope they live up to the hype with the next updates

 

[Yukino]

I'm considering to support them on Patreon but i think i'll wait for the next Update.
If this is as good as the first release, i will.

About Story and Sex, i like both.
That is why i like developers like Phillygames because his games have both, good story and sexy girls with lots of sex.

 

[KinkierThanThou]

I like both Story and Sex as well. I sometimes prefer a slowburner over a sex-laden story, sometimes the other way around.

This one could go either way and I'm not complaining. Either has equal potential.

 

[JJJ84]

Just finished this, and I must say it's a great start.
The renders look gorgeous, and each of the girls seem to have really distinct personalities.

And the whole "purity" "lust" "darkness" mechanic seems pretty new, & it feels like it could really add as interesting gameplay.

Really don't mind the whole slowburn aspect in the storyline. I mean I enjoy the sex in these games, but even so for me story will always be king (regardless of genre of the game).

 

[varkatzas666]

I didn't know what to expect from this game, I loved it. We have already had several stories of parents who know their daughters years later, but to know their triates? Good renders. Waiting for soon updates, my rating for update 0.1.2 is 8/10
