I'm curious to know what he actually doesn't like about the writing (I mean, with examples). I think that the fact we're all here means that it's not actually that bad :unsure:

I do understand that you need a plot point to make the story of NTR happen but man why does writing nowadays in this genre seem to become more and more boring/cliche?
Same reason every story sucks these days. No incentive to change. After countless works creators know what their audience like. While a few people will complain about hearing the same story and tropes, the majority of people will enjoy the familiar. So why take the risk of making something new people won't like but instead make the same story people will like?

If I could decide the stories for NTR games then I would cut out like 90% text from all of them. I just want to get to the sex/NTR scenes and do not care about any of the "slice of life" or gameplay build up. Simply establish the relationship between the characters and how the loser MC loves the girl that is NTR'ed and that's more than enough for me. People who rather spent time with unrelated gameplay or story fluff instead of wanting to jerk to the NTR is not something I understand.

oh, so I guess I can't save in any file except file 5, which is an auto save, because of the same reason. I start a new game like you said but some of the scenes in the recollection room was locked. Is there any way to quickly gain anxiety to unlock them?
after completing the update clicking on the bird near the black orb in the replay room unlocks all scenes

Well, to each their own, but a game is meant to be played, or in the case of a VN, to be read :LOL:Otherwise, you're probably better off watching ntr movies.

Just read doujinshi if you want a quick flap.

I rather take a VN with 10% of the text which is high quality and actually fits with the theme over a VN with 90% more content that ends up being just boring and useless drivel most of the time. Something being long doesn't mean it is good and I feel more Indie creators need to learn this. They just fill their games with pages upon pages of text and busy work just to make it long instead of good.

I think most people would prefer a high quality game in general, just the longer a game generally is the harder it is to keep the audience captivated.
Also your mood going into a game is a huge variable. I don't think many people wanting to knock one off quickly would appreciate a slow VN at that precise moment in time.

Most indie devs, like 4-kun said, aren't primarily writers. Most don't know when to take stuff out of a script as it's a passion project for many so there's a lot of bias in what they add and take out (if they ever do). A lot of the time, they tend to inflate their story with mundane and uninteresting details. But in their eyes, they're writing down something they believe is important. Many devs tunnel vision and lose sight of what they originally wrote or planned out for their story.

This is true way more often than not. A lot of the time people write down *every* aspect of a possible sequence of events thinking it is all necessary; I had that problem with my writing until a mentor of mine asked me to write a scene totaling 90 lines of dialogue using a maximum of 30 lines of dialogue, and I was surprised that I could condense it to 1/3 of the original size. It's eye-opening how much people inflate their stories.

Totally unrelated tangent here,
But, I'm stuck at the game at state of "wandering around town". I can't trigger any event other than going into the cloth store and triggering a bugged scene of Kirito getting a `Cheap suit` from Lisa (repeat of a previous scene).
Any help here?

Can confirm this, having an insane "PC" to play the RPG Maker+KK game seems to be the 'solution', LMAO, never have had an issue running it on my GPD Win 4 XD
basically games are poorly optimized that's issue, Triple A games are doing same thing they rush games out without truly testing them look at Star wars Outlaw how was that game even released? We are beta testers for games now, glad there is community like this i don't have pay for these Porn games more than 85% aren't worth download

On Topic about the game, i know people already talked about it in previous 700 pages, I'm confused creator is not liking story how unfolding? Is this true this confuses me way more, story telling far far better what happen in part one. Maybe he doesn't like how its turning out, maybe wanted do something different you can always do side games after wards, just add different path choices later, or new game+ feature

think issue have with part two is how slow the story is progressing because what happen in Part 1 it was rushed very quickly, it being reset turn people off, or confused them, i was confused we going almost square one, why bother making part 1 then? Think he should of waited to do it on new engine, if part 2 was part one id wouldn't have much issues, everything in this part has been really dam good, blows the first game out of water comes to story and visuals, combat far better in part 2. I like music more too even though they are assets but used far better in this version.

NTR is a delicate balance of "The audience needs to sympathize with the cuck for the NTR to hold any value, otherwise it's just two characters fucking while some guy just exists", and "Please don't blue ball the audience trying to get to the actual sex by creating an entire LOTR universe for your characters to exist in before anything happens."

I think when NTR stories attempt to skip the slice of life/gameplay build up they usually lack any sense of substance and end up doing the bare minimum instead, because they cut *too* much out from the text.

NTR games, especially on the JP side, have a habit of rushing too fast into the sex that it doesn't feel memorable. And yeah, it's porn at the end of the day, but there is such a thing as "poorly-crafted porn" and "well-crafted porn". They're stories, just like anything else.

Fujino gets around this by incorporating the NTR into the mundane slice of life build up sections (sometimes). Random events with other NPCs getting NTRed, encountering characters in public while hinting at the NTR going on in the background, etc, which is a good method of telling the story he wants to make.
