VN Ren'Py Single Again [v1.25.02] [Clever name games]

[-CookieMonster666-]

Thank you for a compressed version, but I never once felt I needed a mod for this game. It's not like any of the choices leads to completely unexpected outcomes. Is it really necessary to make only a compressed version with already installed mods?
I don't mean to be a dick about it, it's more that sometimes once you install mods your save games will only work with the mods installed, which in turn leads to having to play the game completely from the start, if no one updates the mods anymore.

Yeah. I almost never play with mods, so that compressed version wouldn't work for me. It seems more and more compressed versions or ports always come with mods. Since mods are optional normally, I'd think having two compressed versions (or ports) would make more sense: one with and one without mods.

Usually compressed with mods are done by the modders ... most games on F95 that get compressed "independently" on the main thread are not merged with the mod (at least of the few dozen that I follow)

Well, either way. IJS that I don't use mods, so if I ever needed a compressed version it could be an issue, depending.

Just completed v1.21 and I had a humorous thought that I couldn't get out of my head, so I decided to share it.

Maybe, once they pretty much filled up, they tore out the paved roadway they had, to make things feel more private.

Would you believe, they specialize in very small funeral parties?

You know, when I first started this, I was gonna say something about how WAY too young the three main girls look for their age, compared to the relatively fitting rest of the cast, you know? But... the more I've played it, I just can NOT stop thinking of this old, 90's comedy, "Father of the Bride". Steve Martin plays the titular dad of this 20 something daughter, and starts having a midlife crisis when she reveals she's getting married. Rather than showing her as she is, the adult daughter is swapped out with how her dad still sees her, this lil preteen version in her place saying all the same lines of dialogue, leaving him in horror.

Cute, funny old movie, but yeah. The more Frank talks on about raising them, the struggles with Lilly or with Abby and her now gone mom... somehow the super young faces just... fit. Not because they're realistic, but because of that whole, being seen from the eyes of your parents, thing. Wound up feeling more like it added to the game the more the story went on, instead of detracting from it. Anyhow, was one of the few game where it genuinely felt like being a parent was well written into the story, rather than just shoe horned in to try and tick off another kink in the checkbox list. Especially some of the nonsexual story beats, such as Lily's dad, Abby's mom, the struggle to keep family together after divorce (especially with SO many of us being from broken homes these days... ) Just was a lot that resonated Super impressed thus far!!!

When you are saying thus far you mean you didn't finish it yet?

Just finished the most recent update prior to posting, actually! I think I'm way more invested in all the interpersonal stuff in it than the actual sex scenes, to be honest, despite it being a porn game. lol. Had just meant 'thus far' in that it's still unfinished and still has more yet to come! ^_^

I think that's one of the best complements you can give a porn game.

I feel the same way. There are other porn games that have better sex scenes, but this is my favorite in terms of actual story.

I rage quit this game because of the MC. GROW SOME BALLS YOU FUCKIN PUSSY!!!! Its like the author hates his guts or something, this guy has no thread of confidence at all!! Always apologizing and stuttering like a little girl. The girls might as well have dicks because they wear the pants. This fuckin guy is always getting taken advantage of and he just lies there and takes it, like a BITCH!!! Its such a shame because the story is interesting, the writing is great, but I CANT STAND THIS FUCKIN MC. First he abandons his life to take care of another guys child, then goes on to build his entire life around her, then marries another woman who makes him take care of another guys rejects. Hes life a garbage can, everyone just dumps their frustrations and desires on him and he just takes it. WHAT A SPINELESS CUCK. Im gonna go replay Hero Party Must Fall, Im done with this shit

His first post too...I wonder how long he's been holding all that in for

I have to tell you that, to be honest, I won't be reading any more of his posts.

 

[A.K.A87]

Orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr it's just another troll account from one of the same guys that just can't resist bitching in the tread.

Either way,,,,, other members/people would care he quit because ????????

There is no point in posting things like that besides the trolling part.
How many games have you quit playing because in the end it wasn't your flavor ?
You just move on, no point in bitching about it.

I don't even know how many i quit because it turns out it is not my thing.
As a example: It is how i learned that i do not like sandbox vn's.
(yeah,, not even gonna go to certain high response tags there )

A wise man is not wise because they have something to say about everything under the sun. They are wise because they know when it is better to keep their own counsel and act accordingly.

Edit:- And yes I am aware of the fact that by posting this I am proving myself to be most unwise.

By the way, is anyone else convinced that Jess would probably scold her daughter a bit for slapping Shannon, but would actually be proud of her girl?

Incidentally, I found the clash with Abby and her birth father interesting. I'm not surprised that his wife was the driving force behind it, unless it would have been necessary to get his parents' inheritance or he would have needed the organ donation of a close relative. But in general, his wife made a reasonable impression and I hope Abby can bring herself to meet her half-siblings at least once. I mean it won't happen too soon I think unless we have a major time skip coming up.

Otherwise, as I mentioned, after the update: Wouldn't it be smarter to aim for both resorts? The resort thing of Beth's parents in the summer and the house that Abby and Frank inherited in the Christmas season? The resort, to me, has the advantage that Shannon is more likely to leave Frank and the girls alone; in particular, I can't imagine Beth's parents being particularly edified by Shannon bothering the guests with her presence. Something like that can quickly become legally unpleasant and I claim that Shannon would then have the much worse cards. How well the inherited house can keep Shannon away remains to be seen, since we haven't seen it yet, but even there it can quickly become legally unpleasant for Shannon.

Otherwise, as I think I had also alluded to before, my ranking was before the update:
1. Lilith
2. Abby and Becca
4. Meiko

After the update then rather:
1. Lilith
2. Abby (just behind Lilly)
3. Meiko and Becca

Given how things are set up right now, the resort choice is where I've split my single playthrough into two. Since it's very possible you'll meet different girls (beyond the core 4) when going to one vs. the other, I thought it made sense to split the PT at that point. For instance, maybe Beth and Vanessa will be present briefly at the resort whereas they likely wouldn't at the cabin.

I actually think it's less likely for Shannon to find them at the cabin, given that it's something they got through the family of the girl who killed Jess. What possible reason would they have for giving up the location of it to Shannon? And the girl who actually killed Jess only knows she's not getting the cabin. I don't think the family disclosed to her that they gave the cabin to Frank and his family, did they? For all she knows, her family still owns the cabin. So even if Shannon somehow found and talked to that woman, she still wouldn't find out about the cabin nor that Frank and his girls went there.
