Ren'Py Summertime Saga [v21.0.0 wip.4468] [Kompas Productions]

[mattius77]

As far as I can see there are only 3 branching points here. They all make sense for the plot, and offer the opportunity for further divides.

There are 9 unique paths you can take through the game now, involving four different partners. And this is only the second update outside of the family unit.

Re Mom with a Russian dude.... I'd like it, if it gave MC a chance to really put his Muay Thai training to use.

I mean it all depends how the rework that is going to be implemented in 14.5. It seems like a lot of changes, hopefully for the better, and we could see an end to pathways which might appease most people here. I mean theres only two at the moment and one of them was so fucking easy. Like who cares about June let Eric have a gf. The choice between Mia and Helen though.....

Why people so object to NTR ? Why people critic about all girl is or isn't fuckable ?
- You want all game have similar story ? All games MC fuck all the girl, happy ending. Bitch stfu, we need NTR element to make a story interesting. Happy start- happy progress & happy ending are boring as fuck. We need plot twist and the feeling of similar with reality of, you ain't gonna get all the chick, is making the story interesting. Also, this game had save and load system. You're just lazy to do it all path.

You honestly don't particularly NEED NTR elements if you can explain a character and motivations quite well. The problem is that a certain somewhere gets bent ass out of shape if they get a whiff of things they don't like.

Forget story, plot threads, etc. No, you get to feudalistic cuckery, THOZE GUYZ OVAH DERE go apeshit and start wagging their fingers at you like SJWs since it triggers them so hard.

Essentially, you're supposed to try to suspend your disbelief and try to see the story from someone else's view. But all of a sudden shit gets real when their imaginary women are caught in the crossfire.

Go figure...

I'm honestly not sure what you're arguing for or against here.
My personal stance is fairly simple. NTR kills my boner. So for obvious reasons I don't want it in my porn.

If a title starts out with NTR, or if the dev announces that it will be implemented at some point, then fair enough. I can give that game a wide berth, NTR fans can wholeheartedly embrace it and there's no damage done to anyone.
However, I don't want it added if it wasn't part of the initial setting and there were no plans for it before. I tolerate it if it's completely optional but that's about it.

If not indulging a fetish that I absolutely hate makes me a terrible person in your book then so be it.

I'm neither here nor there about it. But some people take whatever is in a game and blow it out of proportion for outrage which is their problem. What I'm talking about is how a story can develop and characters get crisis in front of them that needs resolving. What I'm saying is sometimes, it involves a conflict about a relationship with their SO in some form.

But you have some people that just get outraged on ANYTHING and suddenly everything is cuckery/NTR.

For example, if you make a story about The Sword in the Stone, do you think any of these people would want to hear about Lancelot's quest and his sleeping with Guinevere? The story is goddamn old, but suddenly they just hear about King Arthur, forget Lancelot and suddenly you have 11 knights of the Round Table since Lancelot is Xed out of their minds.

That's what I'm pointing out. Some people get ridiculous about story plots and it makes them look ridiculous when everything looks exactly like what they're fighting to prevent.

Nobody was raging though.
In fact it was one of the pro-NTR crowd that told us to shut the fuck up and that we need NTR to make any story interesting. Considering what we were replying to the posts have been rather moderate.

For example, if you make a story about The Sword in the Stone, do you think any of these people would want to hear about Lancelot's quest and his sleeping with Guinevere?

Unless you identify as King Arthur there's no reason to give a shit one way or the other.
If it's an adult game where you play as Arthur, however, I'd sit it out if being cuckolded was a mandatory part.

Some people get ridiculous about story plots and it makes them look ridiculous when everything looks exactly like what they're fighting to prevent.

I fail to see how it's ridiculous to strongly object to the introduction of a fetish that you personally despise.
If I barged into the Dating My Daughter thread and started demanding that they introduce a son that you have to seduce and eventually bang (non-optional) I wouldn't expect a particularly warm welcome either.

 

[User_215882]

I honestly think the whole NTR thing is a troll post. A game like this doesn't need the extra drama of NTR because it's not a dramatic story. I don't really care if it's in or not but people need to chill out. Besides DC isn't a dramatic story teller so I doubt there's ever going to be any NYE content.

 

[Funke420]

I apologise in advance if this has been addressed but in v.14 did they add any more sex scenes outside the new Mia/her mom/nun storyline?

As in did they add any new features to the existing sex scenes with the aunt/sis/mom/Erik's mom/nerd girl/mall hooker/ scenes?

Definitely one of the best ren'py dating Sims in development but I didn't really explore after finishing the mia+her mom storyline because it was a bit underwhelming overall..

 

[kiltro]

I think I'm stuck with aunt... I've done the bug disinfestation but now when I go to her house all I get is the same scene "... you come back to pick vegetables...kiss" and then I only have the option to clean the garden, and I still get $55 max

Have you tried talking to her after the initial scene, when she stands next to the garden plot?
IIRC you have to tell her that you got rid of the bugs before the effect triggers.

 

[kiltro]

That worked, thanks

And if you go back a few posts, you'll see some people taking this out of proportion which is where I pulled the quote. Also, I've noticed the same BS in other places where both of us know that people won't STFU about NTR which is what I'm responding to.

Unless you identify as King Arthur there's no reason to give a shit one way or the other.

You're missing my point that it's an old story that the plot point happens.

I fail to see how it's ridiculous to strongly object to the introduction of a fetish that you personally despise.

I wouldn't care either way. All I'm telling you is that it's a plot point in a story and some people blow it out of proportion to the detriment of the story in general.

I don't mind NTR scenes if its avoidable, specially if it adds some kind of management challenge in the gameplay (like those Tsumamigui/Alicesoft games). Somehow H-scenes are more rewarding for me if it took some effort to unlock them and relationships are more significant if you actually given an opportunity to defend them.

Also once I reach the gameplay time where I already lost any connections or interests to the characters, unlocking the NTR scenes are a welcome change that help extend the value of the game.

I also don't mind NTR if I don't like the character involve (eg: the Wife in the Teacher's Pet game), it kinda gives you a convenient excuse to "cheat" on them.

Also NTR for me is always good when the MC is the one who is doing the cheating with a girl that's already in a relationship.

 

[Iskonsko_Studio]

I've been meaning to play this game for a while now but just didn't get around to it. Until today that is.

It's actually very good - I just sound surprised because I hate grinding and prefer realistic games but the way this is approached, as a light and fun game, is quite good. Not fappable though or that may just be me

 

[manneychin]

Is there a method to how DC does project management? I'm looking at this month (it was similar over the past few releases). 0.14.1 came on 12.oct. Then they polled & decided to insert 0.14.5 with focus on family. But AFAIK the public was in the dark on how long 14.5 would take. Is it a minor release (3-4 weeks) or a major one (6-8 weeks)? Devs don't say anything about that. After 2 weeks of radio silence there are 80 tasks mentioned on Patreon. But how long would the release take? Is it a minor or a major one? Is the release date & scope discussed with the audience somewhere and I just don't know it?

Considering that 14.1 was 64 tasks and took nearly two months, I wouldn't bank on the 80 tasks of 14.5 being done anytime before Christmas.

Seems like it's going to be a very big update, maybe even bigger than the initial 0.14 IIRC.
