VN Ren'Py Completed Retrieving The Past [S3 E.6 & Epilogue] [MrKnobb]

[kshyk]

This is one of the reasons that I personally actually liked this story for having a defined character, Jensen Wenchester, as the hero protagonist, rather than a renamable 'player avatar' character. It lets us write actual personality for him, and to have other characters react to that personality. Without having that, the characters can be quite vague, barely sketched out, as it is impossible to know how any specific player may be seeing their character, and thus how to categorize their motives or actons, and how to react to them.

I think I see your point. But don't think my renamable Commander Shepard or main character of the The DeLuca Family are vague. They still have defined , realistic personality. Especially hero of The DeLuca Family, he is at least at the same quality level as Jensen Wenchester, and I can still choose his name.
My point is, this is a video game/visual novel. Letting me choose protagonist first name name doesn't make him any worst. If I change his name to Edward, Stanley, Charlie, Clifford the Big Red Dog (or whatever I like), it's still gonna be the same good Mr. Wenchester. It doesn't change the story at all, but now your product is a little bit more attractive, and there's more people willing to play it. I know it's silly reason to like or don't like something. But this world is full of competition.
I don't agree with your point of view, but I respect it. There's also a lot of main characters that prove your point, like Geralt of Rivia .

That's fair enough. However, I naturally gravitate a little to thinking of the huge number of games I've played where it is supposed to be 'my avatar', and yet none of the options are ones I'd have chosen really. If none of the choices are ones that you'd choose, it's effectively the same as no choice at all - you get forced to an action you didn't want to take. I can excuse this a lot more easily when I'm clearly playing a character who is defined by the game dev, rather than supposedly a character who acts as I decide.

I don't watch movies pretending that the hero protagonist has my name, so why would I want to rename a character in a game that is just as much a product of someone else's imagination as to who they are and how they behave and think?

Custom Name Mod
Hey guys. I have a gift for all you people complaining about MC's name (Or maybe I was the only one...)
This mod lets you change Protagonist name to whatever you like.
This is not mine mod. All credits goes to legendary Vinfamy (creator of the mod) and 'smth4nothin'.

Instruction: Copy vin_customname.rpy into the /game folder.
To change name simply use notepad to edit file. Change words 'Edward' and 'Eddie' with name of your choice.

Tested only with Season 1, but should work with all seasons.
This is 'do it yourself' mod. My English may not be perfect, so for more info visit mod's original page:

For all Vicky fans, Coriolan did amazing job bringing my goddesses together. I hope you will like it as much as I do I have to repeat myself, dream came true I wonder what Jensen would say about Bella from BaDIK

 

[Alexander Krisnov]

upgraded to Ep4 have fun

 

[King Slayer100]

Man I just wish there was a harem route , I like most of the girls in this .at the start it looked like MC has the super power so a harem route is on .I stopped playing after season 2 too hard to keep tracks of all the routes .I wish some day someone will make a mod that we can get all the scenes at one go . until then I will only watch the cgs

 

[Geowraith]

It is a rainy day...

Edit: First dialog set from James in Ep 4 is labeled as Jessie.

Thanks.

Finally Vicky update. Vicky need some love too.

 

[TobyQ]

the young and older milf action is the best and wish there was more of it...milfs that look 25 and accomplished army rangers usually don't do anything for me.

 

[GuardianZ]

Right. The Consensus is that the game DOESN'T NEED A WALKTHROUGH.

While the scene with Vicky was absolutely stunning, i'll have to question Jensen's decision to dress the same way he did in their first night together. I mean, i somewhat get the reasoning, but it was also the night Vicky was gang raped, so reminding her of that may not be the best decision? But it was the writer's decision that we don't get any drama from that, so it worked out beautifully in the end.

I loved the short moments where Eve showed her vulnerable side, it was very endearing to see and the sex scene itself very hot. I somewhat liked the way the Nicky threesome stuff was resolved, but i can't help but feel that the solo route got the short end of the stick as to the amount of details (haven't played through the threesome option, just checked the renders). But from my experience in pretty much every comparable game, whenever a threesome route is introduced, that's what happens. And that is even if you get the option to choose a solo route. So i can't complain too much, i can only appreciate that i was given the option.

Very lovely update as a whole, and it seems the story is getting close to its conclusion. I take it that the next episode is the culmination of the story, and episode 6 will be the epilogue, or something along that lines, right? Not sure if there any more seasons planned, tried to search the thread but couldn't find that piece of information.

If I understand your questions then...

NIcky solo route was or will not be skimped on neither will the 3 some route. I believe I explained or played out either option pretty well and makes sense or fits with Nicky/Mei's personality.

As for final there should be another 3 episodes and last one should be the Epilogue if you will. So yes drawing to an end really and I believe it's not rushed.

Once that is done it will not be too long before I release my next game, but for now all focus on RTP.
