VN Ren'Py Ripples [v0.8.0 Public] [Jestur]

[Walter Victor]

Sorry to ask, but what exactly does the incest patch do? Does it unlock stuff that's already in the game, or is it entirely a fan thing? Asking because the download link reiterated that Jestur wasn't involved with the patch. Thanks in advance.

It changes relationships and some texts, but no scenes are changed.

If incest is not your thing, you won't miss anything if you don't apply the patch.

By the way, though, if you use the WALKTHROUGH MOD by LightmanP, the incest patch has already been applied; he incorporates it into his mod.

I agree but i can let it slide considering how many girls this game has, it would take forever until we got a scene with all the ladies if Jestur slow down on that part, personally i dont mind about it but you know there are bunch of people who would complaining here and there if the game has a few lewd scenes, it was kinda reminded me with Luna's scene on Eternum which is also a little bit too fast imo.

dude Luna in eternum was not too fast, people were pissed that there was no sex scenes for 4 full chapters.

I actually thought the dev did a good job with the time skip.

This is one area where AVN creators often stumble - how to allow for relationships to develop over time without taking a year or two of RL time to create all the renders showing the daily grind.

The time skip allowed several things to happen and, for me, feel like they fit the story and allowed reasonable time progression:

This gave Skylar time to distance herself from the MC after what her mother told her about him (and we don't have all those details at this time).

It gave time for the MC to develop his Alyssa relationship so that her actions happened gradually.

This allowed the MC to take a break from his time travel investigation/activities and try to disappear back into the rest of the student body.

It gave time for the MC and Tiffany to develop their new relationship so that the intimacy they experienced at the end of the last rev fit their evolving relationship.

I actually enjoyed all 5 chapters but understand if you feel like the last one was not as well written as the rest of the story.

Cheers!

While I disagree with you, I understand your point. But keep in mind the dev had to make a big pause when making episode 5 due health issues. That may be reason you may notice the difference. Fortunely he seems fully recovered, and hopefully Skylar and everyone come back full of energy as well.

good to know. as sayed I just tried this game this weekend so my info of circumstance was nonexistent.
my critique tho stands since i wrote it in order to provide feedback and not to bitch.
here's to a compleate recovery and improvement both going forwards and perhaps a touch up on chapter 5 time permitting.

It's fine, no one said you were bitching, you were polite on criticism. I just disagreed. Unfortunely many don't know to critic without being rude to the creator and fans.

It's like discussing pizza variations, some like pepperoni, others Margherita, or even quattro formaggi, etc, and it continues to be a great discussion until someone sadly picks pineapple.

Did you just diss Pineapple pizza!?

If you're gonna try to make me eat a "Hawaiian Pizza", then be authentic: Hawaii wouldn't use Canadian "bacon", they'd use SPAM (and maybe real bacon ). And, while I'll eat it, I'm not a fan of American "pepperoni" that much either = give me real Capacola, Posciutto, Sopprasatta or Bresaola. American pepperoni could get you whacked in Italy.

 

[NukaCola]

The game is so confusing without the incest patch. Especially because of the different characters in different timelines.

Yep, that was the reference Hence why Riley isn't best girl. Fight me

Yup. That's the reason to be warry of her. Her taste in pizza.

Only reason ...

A small lesson on Italian language.
Capocollo, Prosciutto, Soppressata.
Salame Piccante (spiced with Peperoncino) is what Americans call Pepperoni.

 

[Son of Durin]

Salame Piccante (spiced with Peperoncino) is what Americans call Pepperoni.

But that doesn't seem to be what gets used here - it's some bastardization that is practically plastic. Maybe that's how it started, but that isn't what it is now, at least on a broad scale. Kind of like "Bologna", which is supposed to emulate Mortadella, but comes up way short.

And if you were to order "pepperoni" on your pizza in Italy, you'd get the peppers, not the meat. Of course, first you'd get a weird look.

Gabagool! A Soprano style pizza!
Of course, it's not really Hawaiian Pizza, it's Hawaiian style pizza as envisioned by a Greek immigrant to Canada. I've seen more authentic attempts using Kahlua Pork, though Spam would also be appropriate.

The game is so confusing without the incest patch. Especially because of the different characters in different timelines.

That's what happens when a developer has to make an alternate to satisfy Patreon's rules. Usually, the developer's heart isn't in it, so some confusion in execution is to be expected.

I don't use the patch and I'm not confused, so what's so confusing? As far as I can tell, there aren't different characters in the two timelines. They all seem to be accounted for, except the second waitress at the diner and the one who helps run the power plant. Those two haven't shown up in the 2019 timeline. Could be wrong, though.

Thank god I'm both Eastern European and Latin then. Our Pizzas are so well made even the "Hawaiian" ones taste good.
+I feel like the Hawaiian Pizza is how the Greeks took revenge for the whole "Muso's Rome project" in the 40's

The confusion adds extra flavor to the emotional damage

OK BIG GUY! Load up MW2, THE ORIGINAL MW2 and let's have a gentleman's brawl on Rust like real men!

It is indeed, the most similar spiced salami that could be used is the 'Nduja from Calabria.... But if you were to order something like that in Italy on a pizza, you would still get very weird look I think, unless you order it in Calabria....
