VN Ren'Py The Adventurous Couple [TACOS S2 P3a] [Mircom3D]

[Gattsu#Struggler]

This is great, thanks!

Would it make sense to play the old version with the spicy walkthrough mod to get a first glance at the game, or is it completely redundant compared to the current season 1?

SoiCowboy 's spicymod is something you have to experience at least once. Hopefully we will see a tacos version some day!

The problem you've got is essentially you are just playing the earlier flawed game with extra writing by someone other than the original Dev, wether that writing is better/worse is besides the point. It's just another person adding what they think is value to the game in ways the dev may never have inteded... Neither that mod or that version was finished and will add notging extra to playing TACOS

While it is fun to at least get Anne's thoughts on matters, something that players have asked for. Playing it is really a redundant task
It essentially the same journey, there's just a few different stops along the way. All you will do is get scenes that some have argued have been done better, some that have argued have been done worse with the added thoughts input by someone else.

I'd play TACOS first to get the taste as this is now the story the dev wants to tell, then go to the spice mod... As R0ckh0und stated it is a thing to experience, but given it's going nowhere, you can't really (as you put it) get a taste of TACOS by playing it...

Read this on another thread: "The wife will potentially cheat, which leads to NTR but is thankfully optional with correct choices." My question is, if I may ask, whether it's possible to go through her cheating, but not end up in a pure NTR, stolen love ending. In other words, is the decision(s) by the player that leads to her cheating a one and done thing that drops you in a separate NTR route till the end of the game, or rather something where the player can manage infidelity dynamics in a way that still lets them make good with the wife as the game goes on? Thanks for any tips, and I don't mind spoilers

pure NTR? NTR is not just what you wrote...
the cuckold loser is just the definition used by the NTR haters with which they fill Google searches a platform that drives search results to spread woke ideology of “political correctness” I suggest you use different search engines

One of the best NTR meaning I have found in the web sounds like the following:

Essentially, Netorare can be broken down into three kinks: being dominated, being the dominator, or moral corruption. NTR is just a combination of these three MAJOR kinks poured into a cocktail of enjoyment.

the 3 kinks are in this game that is one of the best NTR story ever written including all the 3 types NeToRare, NeToRase, NeToRi.

The player has the choices to go down as he wants

I prefer the ALPHA type...so being the dominant one especially in a marriage of a young couple of over 5 years that has reached a point where the physical attraction exists but is no longer as it was at the beginning of the relationship...but I also have to be the corruptor because my wife didn't want to know about being unfaithful to me!
and in fact at the beginning it is ME who for years have been telling my wife Anne that it would be a good idea to have extramarital adventures to try to avoid an end end out of boredom exhaustion of our relationship...
of course the risk of separation is always present in all couples and not always for reasons of sex...
just leave the toilet seat up see what your wife tells you

The marriage or relationship between woman and man in their 20s statistically ends within 4/7 years.. maybe less

Our couple is trying to break every record
I don't believe in the path of separation because the title is “The Adventurous Couple” if it was about a wife stolen from her husband the title should be "The Adventurous Losing Husband"

the couple's plan is clear: Anne, you can fuck whoever you want but if you really ask me if there is someone who I would consider a no play zone:

Thanks for the tips. I read your post, it's very enthusiastic but very confusing for someone who doesn't know the game. Let me clarify my position: know what NTR is, isn't, was and has come to be. I'm not an NTR hater. I like the dynamics of love and infidelity. When I mentioned I don't like to play a "loser cuckold" it means I don't like when the MC is passive, typically when they accept that they lost access to their LI and instead get off watching her have sex with others. What I do like is a dynamic relationship where cheating can happen from either part, the other part can be pissed off, but you, the player, always have the chance to man up and get things back on track. I especially like when the NPC can decide to cheat on their own impulse, rather than reacting to the player's action, as in revenge fucking or falling out of love. It helps me feel like the story isn't all centred around the player and creates an effective illusion that the NPC has a personality and agenda that don't entirely depend on your actions.

I do like when a game lets you manage the dynamics, when decisions have short term consequences rather than making you find out that you might have made better choices late in the game, where you can't do anything anymore to avoid stuff you'd prefer to avoid. As an example (and I can't give examples from this game, sorry, haven't played it yet): your wife can cheat on you with the pizza guy, I'm ok with that, even if the MC finds out that she's doing it behind their back, I'm still ok, as long as the possible reactions include more options than the two extremes of putting an end to it, and sucking it up and doing nothing. So, given a set of choices, I could make the MC allow them to go on and later talk to the wife about it, if their relationship goes on untouched (or reinforced) after that episode. Later on, a different scene could happen where your jock best friend is flirting with your wife right before your eyes in a club, and your wife is into it, despite the fact that the MC isn't enjoying any of it. In that case I wouldn't be ok with allowing them to take it further. What I'm trying to say is that there's a difference to me whether your wife sleeps with a random guy who got lucky, or a potential or actual rival whose intention is to steal her away from you, or just to dominate you by showing that they can fuck her if and when they want. And if something like that were to happen that the MC didn't have the opportunity to stop, I'd like to at least have the opportunity for the to MC forgive her - but not the antagonist, and have the antagonist out of the picture. With a risk of digressing, I could add that I might even enjoy a story where the wife hesitates for a while between the MC and a rival, as long as there's always a path open for them to reunite. What I don't like is following a path from the point where it leads to you inevitably losing your LI.

You'd say all of this is NTR and it's great when a game manages to have it all, and I agree - but since I can enjoy some aspects of NTR, but not others, I prefer that the player can finely control the story with your choices and, yes indeed, cherry pick your kicks. Most games simplify it and create separate paths where, at a critical point in the story, you're either on a netorare, netorase, netori path, etc. On each path you'll get scenes related to that kink and none that are related to other kinks. I don't really enjoy pure paths (and that's the only reason why I mentioned "pure netorare"), although it's probably the most convenient for developers. Makes me feel like I'm always losing something I would enjoy, unless I can take the whole deal, including stuff I don't enjoy.

I'm sorry if this feels detached from the actual game, just wanted to make it clear why I'm trying to learn more about it before committing time to playing it. At this point, I'm confident that TACOS gives you more control than most other games, and that's a plus. Your other post, however detailed you made it, doesn't help me, though, since I can't reference the actual story. I do like spoilers and walkthroughs to make sure I can see a path that I'd like to follow, but the walkthrough mod here, coupled with people's testimony that

On all ryan cheating routes, even on the seperation path MC will have the oportunity to reunite with Anne...

make me think this might be exactly the kind of dynamic I'm looking for in a game, with a relationship that's neither purely conventional and monogamic, nor even purely consensual in the extramarital episodes, but can stretch, break boundaries of conventional wisdom and still fall back to the centre multiple times, in a fully convincing manner.

I haven't played this in awhile and I had no idea there is a remake underway. By reading the comments it seems that Anne can cheat now? Anybody willing to definitively say so? Yes or no would suffice.

I will respond to small parts of your post trying to be as short as possible_
I will respond to small parts of your post trying to be as short as possible
The first thing you need to know is that THE MC is me i.e. Anne's husband...the player has control over my choices and as in real life you cannot how your wife reacts to your actions in advance
but you can save before the choices using QuickSave if needed.

but as I said the story has a well-defined prologue that should make you understand how to behave... because it is the protagonist who pushes his wife to have affairs with others
You have the choice of staying faithful to her or doing what seems logical to me...I bribe her to entertain her so that in the meantime I can enjoy myself without thinking too much about consequences!

I have been engaged to Anne since my second year of college. I have been idengaged to Anne since my sophomore year of college and we got married right after graduation...we have known each other since we were teenagers

our wife can cheat on you with the pizza guy

The pizza guy is part of the activities that I receive in my email

I have registered an account in "The adventurous Couple" web site this is mi first movr to spice up our sex life

it is a web site for couples that want try new experiences

this is the very first email that i receive

There are no wrong or right choices ... you just have to read the dialogues well and try yourself to play the role of the main character
for consequences...there are premature game-overs that will help you figure out what choices are too wrong--- the immediate consequences are there but they resolve in the fact that you may miss some sex scenes... or not

for this i post a part of the dev recommendations

I highly recommend multiple playthroughs with multiple paths so that you get to see all. On some paths their may not be as much material as other paths. It's good to play as many as possible.

There is so much coming up in the next update for Sept 3rd, but again it will depend on which path your on and if you play multiple paths.

I recommend you start from season 1 and support the developer if you like the story-

your post is long I will stop here but if I find more things to answer I will do so

Cheers

Yes, once you get far enough into the game, there's a player-controlled option that opens up the path for Anne to cheat. There's then another point later on with where your previous actions can play into her decision to cheat.

r0ckh0und's post here gives the details.

 

[reidanota]

how it is from the sight of a woman to have a husband who likes to share her.

That would be interesting, from a spectator's perspective. I get the idea of open relationships better than one side sharing the other, so it would be instructive to have an insight on both sides of that kink.

I do still have an issue that I prefer to roleplay a character as I'd be in their shoes, which makes me less likely to run into content that stems from power dynamics that I don't normally put front and centre in sex and relationships.

That's why I'm looking for a game where it can let the MC make decisions I wouldn't make, but which don't make him a total asshole (either in a dominant or submissive way) and have "controlled consequences", in the sense that they don't railroad the story off a main track and into a possible bad ending.

In this case, being able to reunite later with Anne, after she began cheating, sounds promising, so let's find out how much of an asshole I can avoid being while still triggering her to cheat?

 

[Adhdclassic]

To be honest I am confused. When I played the game originally it made sense. Then the game was completely different and the story just seems fuck everyone. No rhyme or reason just vagina meets every cock. This game changed drastically.

 

[TonyMurray]

Actually, you can be a really nice guy, which will build up relationship points, and then you can still trigger Anne to cheat with Martin because you have enough points to make the choice (the mechanics of it is that having enough points gives you a way to avoid her cheating, rather than being a case of "your points are too high, therefore Anne won't cheat). That then opens up the possibility of cheating with Ryan, which can trigger the choice to separate.

Fantastic news! And thnx 4 the info. I played the og first part so many times I had to give it a break. Now it's a must to play again. Take care.

 

[Lagunavii]

The game certainly seems like it has a path for you, while being an Arsehole to Anne can certainly force her into Martin's arms and hence down the unfaithful path, we as players do get the choice (a aspect I do not agree with) you can still avoid all the stuff with Ryan on this path and thus separation, heck even with Ryan you can avoid separation.

The problem is we don't actually know what the fallout of Martin is. Tony specifically put the guy on the No Go list which Anne blaitently ignores.... So there will be fallout when it happens...

To be fair Ryan to gets put on the no go list and we get the choice of fallout there, separate or forgive, so we will probably get a chance there too

I think we are all curious of what will happen when he finds out!

Maybe not all of us, some of us are "Alpha Cucks" remember

 

[robrize2169]

i have zero interest in the Martin path unless we get to kill him. slowly.

I don't personally like the path, it makes absolute no sense to me, but Im very interested in the fallout.

Still if you play with the gallery mod, you don't exactly miss much

 

[Gattsu#Struggler]

Yep that alpha tells Anne, his dad would be a no-go and then let the no-go peep on Anne while taking a shower...he ain't alpha, he's tripple beta!

 

[Lagunavii]

Yeah I've mentioned this before. If yourself, your wife and a 3rd party are in a room and there is sex... And you're not involved, your really not the alpha in that relationship.

I guess at certain points of the game, Tony was/could have beeb the alpha as he could order Anne around, but the minute she chooses Martin, there's definitely a power change.

 

[Lagunavii]

You're right about that.
Maybe for example the scene at the spa in the beginning of season 1 where Anne gets turned on more and more and MC denies her to have fun with them, or Mike after they played poker and other scenes.

There are a lot of scenes like this at the start. I don't deny Tony has power maybe not all of it, as there is still Anne denying him to even enter the room with a certain someone... Obviously there's some later in the game. The Phil is a scene that comes to mind.

These scenes would make him alpha but at the same time exact these situations would let Anne decide to cheat on MC with Martin, because of him denying her to have sex although they set up rules and the fact that MC can't satisfy her needs.

And this right here is why you should only be able to enter the Martin Path with low points... If you've worked her up and denied her sex, if you've pushed her to sleep with a guy then said no etc etc it makes sense Anne would go elsewhere.

Honestly the games not that deep, I still don't know how he plays the game and comes to the conclusions he does
