VN - Ren'Py - Ravager [v5.2.3] [4MinuteWarning]

Really loved what this game has so far. Although I saw some comments disapproving of the character artstyle but personally I didn't mind it. In fact if the developer uses this simpler artstyle in favour of more content then I'm all for it. The voice acting varies in quality but somehow the amateurish voice acting make it hotter somehow. The only things I could request as an improvement is a mode without the time limit and a way to see your stats.
A rare gem on this website, can't wait for future updates. 5/5 stars.

I almost skipped this because the images shown didn't grip me or give me an idea of what the game was like. I gave it a go and was pleasantly surprised because the game is good. Multiple choices and it seems there will be different options in the future based on what options you choose so for example if you keep chosing options that use charm, eventually there will be dialogue choices and options effected by that. Which is great. The way the scenes are written is also good. There's also VA. There is an awful lot of potential here.

So why not 5 stars? 2 reasons both of which will likely be fixed. The art is blurry, that art is, however, placeholder art so that will be fixed but right now does effect the game quite a lot. Likewise a lot of the art is the same position. Since the dev plans to have different art put in it's a temporary problem.

Basically once the art is fixed I don't really see any big negatives at all. It's well made.

Huge potential in the under-served monster protagonist category. The game is still in the early stages but promises a lot.
You play a dragon that aims to conquer the land. First you need to run from a huntress and find a spot for a lair. Along the way you will have various encounters that can end up sexy, lethal or with character growth.
All of this is in a VN style with branching options. Good foundation and I can't wait for more

Not much content yet, but I gotta say, I love it! It's amazing, can't wait for the next update. The characters are hot, it has a decent story and an engrossing world. You just get pulled it, I would like my princess back though... Please?

Update: 1.3

I'm not normally one for bestiality- but when I'm the dragon, it feels a bit different, honestly. There's a lot of roleplay and story potential, and I like the content thus far.

Pros:

• There's a couple hours worth of content or so if you go through it all. It’s pretty entertaining.
• There’s a lot of options. You can be more evil, more good, and it feels like you’re setting up for something (That isn’t there, yet).
• I like base building, and this seems like it’ll get there, and allow you to build a harem of victims.
• Bugs I complained about last week are all fixed this week!

Complaints:

• The fact I lose a day every time I switch between areas is a bit of a pain, but there’s a method where I can get stats from everything and still finish without dying. This might be intentional.
• The art is improved, but a lot of the girls aren’t like the pictures, while some are. Notable examples are the BJ farmstead scene, and the scene with the wolf girl where you yourself use her.

Requests/Ideas:

• I have no idea what the differences between lairs are. Some stats might be nice.
• Knowing my own stats might be useful, if they’re going to be important, but the vagueness is fine currently.
• Some base building elements would be great in CH3, if not planned.
• Possibilities for mods that add more content might be interesting, depending on the development plan, and if any “random abductions” exist.
• Learning magic would be cool, haven't managed to do that.
• Self improvement or evolution could be interesting.

As for potential players: It's fun, and not a huge download, so I'd say go for it. There’s potential to roleplay as merciful or cruel, charming or forceful. If there’s any sort of branching to this, it could do with a few playthroughs, but I don’t know the development plan. Personally, though I had to do a couple things I wasn't proud of to bite off some appendages some people didn't deserve, all's fair.

Three stars for now. Hopefully I can give more as the story progresses further. So far it's not that bad. Dragons are supposed to be powerfully magical creatures. I hope that eventually the creator will implement a way to change between human and dragon form. Might be to much, or might add a good twist. Allowing for sneakier ways to enter villages, or towns to obtain necessary goods to further the story line. I know that you meet and accept the followers at the end of Chapter 2, but allowing the MC to become human might add an angle to depth with the story. Just a suggestion. Continue the good work.

Not many games available in this genre; it's nice to see some variety. Still early going, but a promising start. The time limit is a little oppressive, but of course it's a Ren'py game so it's easy to adjust things to one's taste. I like that there's so much voice acting.

Marginally better than most of the other stuff out there, but despite being labeled 1.0, it's riddled with bugs and isn't a complete game (which is what a 1.0 generally implies). Some of the voice acting is nice, but it's clear a man is doing it on some of the female parts, which is a total turn off and caused me to turn voice acting off entirely. There's a lot of potential here, but also a lot of room for improvement. It's a good thing this game's free on here, because that's just about the only thing it's worth checking out for.

The art style is also just a bit simplistic, which leads to some characters looking androgynous, which is never a good thing in my book. Also, I'd like to see the actual characters get stripped when I fuck them, not just background art, it's an obvious improvement that comes to mind. Also, at the end of the game, I'd remove that feedback choice entirely, when the player expresses criticism, you come off as whiny. If you don't want feedback don't ask for it, and definitely don't complain when you get it.

I won't be keeping an eye on this one, but if I see it pop up on forums with significant updates in a few months, I might try it again.
