VN Ren'Py Abandoned Rainy Day [v0.6.2] [Red Rocket]

[TundraLupus]

I was gonna avoid talking about it, because it will probably spark a discussion and mods don't like my discussions, but it is my opinion and I feel the need to express it.

Lets start with this , I'm the type of player that doesn't like making choices for NPC's, so, i played the new begging and i have to say, i didn't like it, not because of the rework, but because besides not liking to make choices for NPC's i don't like to see things that the MC wouldn't, i could accept when it was the whole cat thing in the hospital, or character was out for the count and it wasn't anything too important, and then there was the whole seeing through Zaida's eyes, which made sense to set up the next update, but this time we got a shit ton of information on a characters background, information that seems(based on the first version) that it was meant to be something that would come up in the future, something that could make us emphasize with said character, and that would make the whole scene in the begging that much more powerful, i at least would be far closer to trusting Zaida after getting said information, so we didn't just get to see something the MC didn't, we didn't just made a choice for a NPC, we got vital plot and lore that the character hadden't and wouldn't.

That is exactly what my point in previous discussions was.

Still like the game, still love the effort and appreciate the fact that Red Rocket takes in feedback, but I'm worried about what will happen to the story and the game if they continue to give in. I'm sorry I can't support financially, and I'm sorry for the whining and being a baby about it, but I do believe in giving sincere feedback and that is mine.

I'm pretty sure a mod will delete this at some point though.

Edit: Again for those in doubt it is only my opinion, I feel that having the information delivered like that cheapened it in an effort to create empathy towards the character.

It seems that while Z can refuse Bob and the scene is avoided, the scene is still referenced later in the story.

I mentioned that in my previous comments. I forgot to change two lines of text, I already fixed it. I will post the corrected version when I release episode 4.

Okey-Dokey.

Ok.. this was an unexpected, but totally welcome ride!

Amazing job dev!! I find the characters very vivid, the interactions fun and the constant presence of dev herself so much fun (did i understand the comment about your gender and you are female, right? sorry if got it wrong)
And fuck that guy who said it was not fun, you had me laughing out loud several times!

Best of luck, I will be following this one closely!

Alrighty I've not been active long but Ayhsel is one of the members I really like Great to have you here... Red Rocket don't want to jinx anything but having Ayhsel on your side is a good sign of things to come

Hahaha great start to a post, might aswell just mention a mod or report yourself

I understand your point, but I'm imagining Red Rocket kind of got the need from us discussing her game and can't stop herself moving the story forward.

I don't mind it's actually not a bad plot device to have the MC not know part of it. Actually makes it easier for the player to engage!

I'm biased because by now I'm kind of following this thread closely, rooting for the dev to get loads of support and already spent some time thinking about how the weighted ratings work... How is The Professor higher in the ranking?

Just stating the facts about that one, I don't really care anymore, I'm at a point that I'm almost stopping interacting as a whole because of all the censorship, I'll probably from now on just use the site to download and if I can avoid it entirely I will. I'll still answer when Quoted, but this is probably the last post that I initiate.

People see sex they vote 5 stars, I was reading some reviews and they even talk about the bad things in the game, but still, give five stars, and rarely anybody talks about the story it is mostly graphics and sex scenes. But a lot of people choose games based on signatures, that is why I asked if anybody knew how to make one, and once someone did I put them in my gif sig.

Edit: Also my problem is not the mc not knowing, is that there is no reason for us as players to get such information this early besides making the people that screamed NTR understand Z's position better.

I'm very sorry you feel that way.

Yeah I mean it is a porn site so when I play a game for the wank and it achieves that I rate higher... (WVM, kinda lost it's touch with the story but can still be enjoyed)
But frankly some games don't need any sex to be good and when the story and chars are good, there is more work or at least more artistic work behind it and that's worth more in my opinion.
Like this here game or Rebirth, Unleashed (boy I need that update) or Halfway house...

Also, the Deluca family and reluctant archon have pretty good stories, I tend to agree with you on WVM, but I think the dev intends to focus more on the story now, although that game was always more of a feel-good game then a story-driven one if you like a story in your games most of the ones in my sig have a good one if there is any you haven't played, there is some more but I'm at the limit of stuff that I can put in one gif.

It was and I don't mind it, I just tend to not think too much about what is happening or think about it very much afterwards. I forget them and move on.

Your GIF is slooooowww but I think I played most of the ones I've seen Yeah while I was writing some other games showed up, right now most of the ones I'm following

Yeah I'm thinking about changing the speed, but it either is to slow or too fast and you can't see which game it is, I'll have to take an hour to fix it some time.

I can't even count the times my messages got erased. Many times I got the message "off topic", once it was "flaming an user" (entitled douchebag had it coming, seriously), most of the time I don't even get notified.. Suddenly puff.

At some point it is annoying, but at some point also I kind of understand. Sometimes conversations go totally out of track.

So I would not worry about it too much. Just keep participating and if message got erase, don't worry.

On another topic is red rocket a girl or a guy? I normally would not care, but character appearing so lewd in the novel I kind of wanna know.

Haha do you get a notification?

Once I reported a guy trying to get me to send nudes. Went on his newly created profile and he was just sending people "are you on" XD
Whole profile gone, kinda scary

Girl according to her, I just say she now though of course how would we know, I mean Zoey is a boy

Hey, just wanted throw out my two cents.

I seriously found no problem with your criticisms on your previous post, although I don't quite agree with your stance, I think this type of conversation is still great way to give the creator some feedback. Personally I have no problem with NTR if it fits, and it bothers me to no end in many threads where people are going "NTR, fuck this shit"... But different kinks for different people, I'm not into pregnancy but I won't hate on a game because that's part of it. I think most of us leeches that just getting the game for free really should just appreciate the visions of the creator, and feedbacks should be given constructively. Your feedback was perfect, giving your feeling that the changing of POV was something you felt is negative, and made me ponder if that scene was different how I would have felt.

I also want to explain personally why sometimes we give 5 stars to in perfect games. I voted 5 stars even though in my review I did not give 10/10 on most of the components. If you average it out, it's 4 star at most. But I gave the 5 because of what you mentioned, that so many other less deserving games are receiving similar scores. I want this game to stand out, want more people playing, more people subscribing, so that we keep getting updates. And although this game isn't perfect, what it's got going for itself is miles ahead of so many other popular games.

Hahaha weird. The most I got was a guy trying to make me teach him change to use daz (I have never render a thing in my life how would i know?) clearly to make the characters become little girls (kept asking about whether it was possible to do something like that, I kept telling him I had no idea)

Girl according to her, I just say she now though of course how would we know, I mean Zoey is a boy

Oh well she is fun and hot! I like her! Those scenes between chapters are hilarious.
No idea who is Zoey though.

Hahahah wooowwww, how little? Maou-sama or even worse?

Yes she is, I cringed when seeing her going through comments at the beginning but I enjoyed it thoroughly.

I can understand that, if I didn't have my per peace with how the reviews work in here I would do the same, and at some point probably will, I just think that because of what you mentioned it cheapens the reviews, I participated briefly of a discussion about this before, in the end, I don't judge games by their reviews I judge by the first 100 and last 100 posts, but if it will help a good game like this get more people I'm into it.
