VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Rainy Season [Ep. 3 FULL] [NikitaSca96]

Something remotely resembling English... A collection of porn clips... Only this time the "dev" made the game a bit longer than usual, so an extra star for effort. Other than that it's terrible. No story, no game play.

Pretty good so far. Interesting, hot porn stars chosen for clips. Everything good about it is a preference I have, not sure what it deserves to be rated from an unbiased angle. If you like the 'real porn' tag (selectacorp etc) like I do, it's the best one I've seen being worked on at the moment. The English translation is a bit excruciating to plow through. The sex is very frequent. You can be fucking the first female character within about a minute of starting Episode 1, so it's good for people who don't like the slow burn.

A visual novel with the only choices
of form "fuck your wife" or "go to sleep",
in the first case you can click on a few
short video such as "blowjob 1", "blowjob 2",
"missionary", "come". The plot is not related
to sex in any way. Really bad and boring.

Bad game. Another game of "Click the button and here's a bunch of porn pictures." No story, no reason. These types of games need to just go away. Not even worth the time it took you to read this review.

EDITED ON COMPLETION OF GAME. NEW REMARKS ADDED.

So, I this game...I really hate dropping two stars and was tempted to give it three. There's a lot to like.

Most real porn games cater to sexuality that, frankly, I find repulsive. I don't why that is, but it's mostly gay/futa/sissy etc. At least that seems to be case in the past couple years on F95. I gave this a shot out of sheer boredom and was pleasantly surprised.

The real porn is fitting, and the dev is keen enough to use scenes from the same specific actresses for each character. For example, sex with your wife will always feature American porn actress Janice Griffith. I've played games where this isn't the case, so that's a plus. The dev uses clips that are mostly of good quality. Only a few scenes were grainy or pixelated on my 70 inch tv, which my macbook stays hooked up to.

Though I love me some bimbos, and none are featured in this game, the actresses the dev selected were good choices for just about any audience. I didn't like two of them, but only really hated one that I found completely unattractive. It didn't help that her scenes seemed amateur, perhaps shot with a boyfriend for her personal site.

This might have been better with long, looping gifs. That would give the player better control of the action, letting him or her decide when to end one scene and begin the next.

My complaint about the sex is a personal peeve that may seem weird. Sometimes a guy doesn't shoot his load so much as dribbling it out. This could happen for many reasons. Maybe he's really tired or not feeling well. Maybe he's spent from previous activities. But in my personal experience this usually happens when the sex is bad or boring, especially if your partner is unattractive or unexciting. The man is getting release without any of the deep pleasure you want out of good sex. If makes a lie of the text, which talks about love and passion. Maybe the dev should use some "stunt" moneyshots when needed. I like to see people having the BEST sex.

One thing that's a mixed bag is the fact that this is hardly a game. The choices really amount to whether or not you want to see a sex scene. Reject offers if you want to move on with the "plot." Accept if you want to see a girl's sex scene clips. Later on, most in Ep 2, you might need to chosse between girls. Rollback to see everyone's content. The choices make no difference to the plot and do not effect the ending of each episode.

The downfall, of course, is the utterly incoherent story. While us English speakers may be losing something in translation, I think it just a poorly fleshed out mess.

Wait, someone died? When did that happen. "Rollback"...still not seeing it. Am I not reading this right? Wait, when did these people meet? Oh, now it's being explained...what a coincidence! But why, then, is this character sleeping with me immediately, with no motivation or explanation, if she's a friend of my wife? I don't get it.

There's a lot of weirdness and jankiness in the story. That, and the poor translation, makes it hard to give this a positive rating. OK for those who want some easy sex scenes, though you could find the same and more on Pornhub. Not recommended for anyone who wants choices to matter, or who needs things to make some kind of sense.

NEW REMARKS: Final rating 2.5, a 0.5 star improvement. This is because, while the story is still a mess, episode three gave us a ton of additional sex scenes. We are talking 20+, not including some automatics and some still images. I missed at least one Marina scene. It is also now possible to upset a girl and make choices that lead to THEM rejecting sex with YOU, not just the other way around. I actually see that as a plus. You get enough easy sex that being able to fail is not a negative.

If all the episodes were like episode 3, I may have been tempted to give it 3 stars, even with its awful plot and pacing.

This was put out pretty quickly. If the dev took a little more time and got some decent betas/translators, he may be able to do much better. Using real porn and tossing a bit of story around it made the fortunes of countless tumblrs. It doesn't take much. I'll likely take a look at future content from this dev.

All the scenes are decent length clips rather than text heavy stuff. It has sound and everything, so not everything said by the actors is gonna match up with whats happening in the story. Its not a big problem if you are someone that comes up with head canon plot for generic porn online. The scenes are well selected and offers great visual stimuli. There are a lot of scenes here. You won't go more than like 3 minutes between scenes.

There is a "decent" plotline if I'm being generous, but the scenes are pretty much independent of the plot. There is a story involving mystery/thriller/betrayal and whatnot, but I didn't pay too much attention. What the story does is offer the bare minimum of context to your relationship to the girls to help you get involved or immersed in the scenes. It does take a certain level of leniency and imagination on the player's part for this to work though.

So basically, this game is like watching some real porn videos with an overarching story if you use your imagination. Its pretty fappable since its real porn videos heh.

Now I'll get to the biggest problem. No, its not the engrish. The english is pretty decent contrary to what some of the earlier reviewers are saying. I've seen much worse from Russia. The biggest problem is that the dev probably fairly new to coding. Its quite obvious that there is not much going on under the hood. There doesn't seem to be any kind of flags or variables that affects the outcome of the story in any way. This means that what the MC is thinking and saying doesn't take into account the choices you are making. All the choices boils down to "do I bang this chick or just skip the scene?" Whether you bang all the chicks or not, the MC's thought process is that of a faithful husband who cries at night because he misses his wife lol.

So all in all, I think its a good effort and probably a learning process for the dev. At the very least, you can certainly fap to some of the clips.

I had difficulty settling on a 2, 3 or 4 here.

The Good
--highly fapable, with lots of good real porn clips. Those with "Julia" are really hot and I love all of the pornstars the Dev chose for this
--Bones of an interesting story

The bad
--needs a cheating tag, and tho there's cheating, as far as I've played there are no consequences for you cheating
--Really bad English translation and as others have indicated, some Russian persists even in the English translation. I got the gist of things, but a lot of nonsensical dialogue
--Typical Russian Misogyny, tempered by atypical white knightism.

It's a little laughable but he's constantly portrayed as loving his wife and defending the virtue of all women even though the MC can rampantly cheat on his own wife. Meanwhile, none of the other women care that he's non-exclusive. I mean every opportunity to cheat can be done without consequence. For me, this creates a big disconnect later in the story.

Ultimately, tho I personally give this a 2.5, I'm rounding it up to a 3 because it has an amazing amount of quality fap content. If all you care about is fapping, you'll love this game. There are tons of fap opportunities

Very sophomoric and contrived. Poor translation, often can't even piece the meaning together from the nonsensical machine text.

Very much just an excuse to throw some porn images at you... Scenarios have all the depth of a spilled coffee.

See girl > Drink at coffee shop > Go with girl and choose positions from a list... Your first choice in the game, literally 30 seconds after starting, is fuck or don't fuck.. Plot people, plot... If i want to watch a porno, i will. I'm after a game here.

Quite pedantic.

Fantastic implementation of real porn. Very well done.

The story is intriguing. The translation needs some work, and in sections of Episode 1, the text is all in Russian, even with the language set to English. I wish the game would let you set language before the main menu, which is all in Russian.

I like the story. I'm not sure what the consequences are for having sex at every opportunity, so I did.

I am about to play the latest Episode 2. I am intrigued by where the story is going even with the awkward translation and intermittent Russian text.

Definitely worth checking out if you like sex and drama.

Should have a cheating tag so players take notice and expect as such.
Porn with a loose plot. Not saying it in a negative way since many like it that way. Translations from Russian to English are google translate tier.
Porn clips well are well integrated in the game. Lots of content. The game is linear.

So far this is the best integration of real porn into ren'py visual novel engine I've seen. Not even the usual grinding. The story / plot is still early of course, but a very promising new project and already enjoy- and fapable. I'm now off to the dev's patreon site to keep an eye on rainy season.
