VN Ren'Py Shattered [v0.22] [Yeda Games]

Had a few questions about the route system because I am kind of confused.

1. About the routes & being locked, is their a list somewhere at what act the main routes are locked? like for example, I want to do Melinda, Vanessa & Suya. I assume at some point I will get locked into these main routes, is their an indication or a list of what chapter the lock in occurs for each character? I mean, I don't mind having to start a new game 3 times for each route but if I can play up to when lock-in starts to occur, that would be great.

2. For the Secondary routes, can I do both Iris & Bree at the same time or will I need to create sperate saves files & only be able to do them one at a time?

Sorry if my question seemed invasive in a way, I don't really follow the thread or the discord much but if at some point it got really bad (hopefully not) feel free to do what's right even if it meant putting everything on-hold and take a long break. In a way what I'm trying to say is remember that you're the most important person in your life and you should take care of yourself; get well soon.

Nothing invasive about it at all.
It's just that things are difficult these days and they get worse all the time, so I always appear tired — because I am.

You can look through the walkthrough to find answers for these questions. With Melinda and Vanessa you get locked very early on (third act for Melinda; Vanessa's entry event also happens in the third act), while Suya as far as I remember has to wait until tenth or eleventh act.
Combining Bree and Iris isn't allowed.

Cool, thank you so for the Secondary routes I will need to have two save files along with Three routes I want to do so I am looking at a total of Eight saves, thank you again, so it should look like this right for what I am trying to do?

Melinda Route, only Melinda
Vanessa + Bree
Suya + Iris

I'm not sure if Suya and Iris are compatible. In fact, I'm pretty sure they're not because at some point they had a chance to date each other. But I may be mistaken, I've been changing certain things about the game many times.
Also, you have to keep in mind that if you have a main route and a secondary route, you will skip some of the secondary route events because they happen at the same time and the main route always goes above in priority.

 

[Crow102]

Okay, I did not realize Main Routes over-ride secondary routes, then I may have to replay again for Bree cause I did Vanessa + Bree & wonder if I missed any Bree Scenes.

Had another question though, I have tried to get on Dominique's slave path & it doesn't seem to work, I have tried the following combo's below, am I missing something crucial here cause I want to see the path. Like, I guess what I am asking is, what are the requirements cause I have tried literally everything even to the point of making sure I am locked out of Melinda's path, didn't date Vanessa, Didn't date Bree or Iris & didn't mess with Suya so......am I missing a trigger somewhere? because literally I have pretty much tried everything & it never opens up the Dominque slave path.

I am trying to use the walkthrough but in the above cases, where it says Dominique's slave scene should start, it never happens even after I have done all the above things so I am really confused at this point on what the trigger is because I have tried every thing I could think as I stated above & the path never starts.

 

[YedaGames]

…

Just to make sure, you're talking about the event at Dominique's office, correct?
To be clear, you can combine Dominique's slave route with pretty much any other route in the game, they don't really influence all that much. What you have to focus on is points of submissiveness and specific choices during dialogues with Dominique.

 

[Crow102]

No, I meant the first time foot worship scene at her apartment. I figured it out though, it was because I didn't use the Butt-Plug before meeting her & her detecting Blake's Sperm on his outfit & using that against him. For some reason, my brain wasn't reading the walkthrough correctly & I misunderstood it because the way my brain saw it was, if you had a high sub count, the butt-plug would only help & is optional but the Butt-plug & her detecting Blake's Sperm is what triggers it. Anyway, user error & being a dumb dumb on my part.

Just some legs.

You have to understand that this is technically impossible.

So, I'm planning a new Playthrough with Suya, is there any nogo i have to consider?

Aside from not getting locked on any other main route, I don’t remember any issues. Though, your Blake should lose anal virginity at some point before that, otherwise he might not be into the idea of taking Suya’s massive cock.

I think it would be worth adding a bit of a "Who's Who" on the Walkthough (with Pictures and details of their Sex/Gender).
As someone looking at the game, I like to look at walkthough's to see what kind of content and how much content there is, and it can make it clearer what each of the paths are when I can see who the characters are.

Just an Idea though

Nope, my Blake is on Suya-only and was a "virgin" when they had sex the first time.
There's actually a scene where Blake mentions it's his first time with a dick, which surprises Suya big time.

Most important in my opinion is to decide which route of her you wanna go.

Since she takes a looong time to realize that you actually are interested in her, replaying for both routes is rather tedious.

The walkthrough helps a bit, though managing your dom/sub points and skip the right sex opportunity for the dom route is a little bit tricky.
Also bimbo points can screw you over.

Furthermore she is not compatible with Iris, but has a minor route with Reese, which I almost missed because the walkthrough never really mentions it.

There is the possibility to have interactions with Felix and her, but I didn't go there because I think he's disgusting. All of it was completely avoidable.

But whatever you decide, she is worth it. In my opinion the best LI in the entire game, especially if you wan't a more independent thinking Blake.

I thought about doing this but never figured out how exactly should I present all this. My first idea was to make nude images for each character to give you the idea of what to expect from their sex scenes. However, some characters go through certain changes throughout the game. How would I show Reese, for example, as she has four distinct body variants? Plus, images themselves make the walkthrough significantly «heavier», which isn't a big deal by itself, but some free file converters have an upper size limit.

…

Maybe. All of that was long time ago, I forget the details sometimes.

As for Reese, she doesn't have a route with Suya. There's a couple of events in which they are together, but as far as I remember being on Suya's route is not important.

Can imagine, it is a really big game already after all.
But I was delighted by this detail, so I had to point it out

Yeah I meant the threesome scenes, it was just to emphasize that Reese is more interactive with the Suya relationship than Iris.
And probably born from the slight disappointment that I didn't get the chance to make a throuple out of them

 

[Snakemann]

Thanks for the Information, I'm curious how it all comes out together at the end. I did some skip reading of the walkthrough in the meantime, and noticed that you have to avoid a scene with reese to get closer to Suya(which makes me sad aswell, a Suya+Reese Route would be amazing in my humble Opinion). So, not to much sleeping around, not to much of a Bimbo and some Patience should do the Trick, got it.

On the other hand, unlike all the other main routes Suya doesn't have a true subroute which means that Blake will be able to have side partners without usual restrictions (some may still apply).

I think it would be worth adding a bit of a "Who's Who" on the Walkthough (with Pictures and details of their Sex/Gender).

I experimented a little with this idea and so far came up with something like this.
Basically, a collage of different visual representations of characters (but no more than three. Four won't fit) and a very short description. Also, every character will be pictured in the same pose and on the same distance from camera, so you'll be able to compare sizes.
What does everyone think?

Seems fine, especially for the characters that change a lot I think it's enough to show a before-after.
A short description of the two paths of every character would maybe smart in the beginning, giving players the chance to avoid certain outcomes easier.
But the story is way to complex already to give players a complete summary at the beginning, so in the end there will always confusion about something.
Somewhat fitting for Blake's story
