VN - Ren'Py - The Agency [Ep. 2 v1.0.2 Final] [Studio Kami]

Unfortunately, I don't think there's any reason to play this.

The story's paper-thin, the dialogue is cringe-inducing and overly verbose, the visuals are just porn clips and random videos of POV walking around, the audio is horribly mixed so the only way not to get jump-scared every 5 minutes is to turn it off, scenes just begin and end abruptly in a confusing way, and finally and definitely most egregiously: the humour makes me want to claw my eyes out.

Don't listen to others, make sure you simplify the amount of the video clips but leave some especially where you can actually see specific things (e.g.: see girls, sneak into the toilet, meeting girls' events around, e.t.c) and you can just leave some random videos about walking too (to trick the players into thinking not every single video is about girls) it is good but not too much. To raise their expectations into the game, not so predictable... you know, the rule of thumb is not to let the player predict your game too easily, however, to balance the players' feelings too. Don't irritate them too much. Btw you should focus on the less plastic looking girls, they are too stiff to even look at not to mention jerking it off. Just nice, a bit hot, no big boobs needed

It is in my Top 5. I confess that I am in love with Dani, although I would be unable to break the heart of any of the other beautiful girls that appear in the novel. I like the plot and fit it with real characters with sex, ambitions and emotions, it's the first novel I've seen that perfectly fits and deepens the real world with the MC's decisions without resorting to screens with only text and two images. In my opinion it is a novel that can mark a milestone in the world of erotic novels. My congratulations to the creator.

The selection of videos for each scene and their coherence with the dialogues is impressive. It's clear that the developer could have written even better stories if not limited by the videos, but for a game in this genre, it's more than sufficient. In fact, this production is unique.

While Episode 1 was the developers first work, it's evident he/she put his/her heart and soul into it. Although there are a few errors in some of the dialogs, it doesn't detract much from the game experience.

Part 2 is where things start to get really interesting. The story becomes more engaging, and the various locations and characters are well-connected. The casting is top-notch. As an adult game, the primary objective is to entertain, and this game certainly does that.

Episode 3 marks a significant improvement in terms of storytelling, dialogs, and several other aspects. I strongly recommend it, even if you haven't played parts 1 and 2. It's more free-form, and the endings are more varied. I love it, and I'm confident that future versions will be even better. It's definitely not the work of a newbie developer.

X-Mas episode is an entirely different game, a combination of sandbox and agency versions. Although it's not particularly long, it's evident that a lot of effort has gone into it, and it captures the Christmas theme beautifully. It's much more than a mere side game.

In summary, this game is undoubtedly worth a try. At the very least, play Episode 3 and the Christmas special episode. They are games that stand out from other episodes.

The biggest problem with this game is too many video clips that are too large, too numerous, and too long. Each independent episode is more than 4 gb of data.

There's obviously a lot of porn in this game, but it doesn't tell a very coherent story, and it's annoying to have to go through so many video clips just for background events before even getting to the sex. Seriously, there's video clip/gif for everything from exiting a room, to walking down a hallway, to walking outside. I don't need a video clip or gif for everything. A simple image would suffice.

Basically I like the idea of this game, but it is poorly written and poorly executed.

So I think it said something about the first two episodes being proofread but the dialogue is still kind of terrible. I can't imagine how bad it must've been before.

Sorry but the only way games like this work is if someone can smoothly read through the story. I'm too distracted by the broken English. Edit: The other stuff was too mean, my bad. I removed those parts from the review.

I appreciate what you were trying to do with the videos in order to make it feel more immersive but it's just kind of tedious to watch a video of simple actions every scene. Especially when the broken English has already destroyed my immersion anyway.

The models used are pretty fucking hot which is a first.

Overall, 3 out of 5. Maybe I'll come back to it later when I have more patience but idk. If all I'm doing is just playing for the models, then it's more worthwhile to just look them up if I'm not even going to be bothered to read the story.

One of the better games in the "real porn" category. It avoids most of the nagging issues that plague similar games and shows a real effort to make something substantial. No vague stats to grind. No quests that require you to navigate an awkward sandbox in very specific ways. Choices are actually meaningful and can lead to missing a lot of content, which is good for replayability. Little details like dialogue being incorporated into video scenes can add a lot. You can also just skip fetishes as they come up in the story.

The few cons can be easy to ignore but are still there. You have to just accept that the main character's family walks around in lingerie all the time. Some awkward model choices also mean that you'll be switching between first and third person view depending on what's available.

Still very good and proves that real porn games don't always need to be the most low effort content imaginable.

The Dev has done a great job of bringing an immersive and visual experience. I find this refreshing, as opposed to most "real porn" games that uses a lot still images and a whole bunch of text, part relying on the reader to fill in with their imagination to paint a picture. This is much more accessible and more akin to the regular Renpy VN that we all are familiar with and love.

The girls are varied and model selection is great. Of course, with any "real porn" games, the variety of situations and scenes that the game can present is limited by the footage available to the dev. This includes inconsistencies when it comes to locations and MC's appearances (whose face is blurred most of the time). As long as you come in with the right expectations, you will see and appreciate the creativity and uniqueness of this game.

However, this game is not without flaws. Even the remastered version, the English dialog sometimes has this weird flow that just don't feel organic, even if grammatically correct. Also, sometimes transitions between videos and still images are not the smoothest, leaving a clunky feeling.

But still these minor flaws did not hinder my enjoyment playing this game. Highly recommended, and best of luck to Kami

I've played parts 1 to 3 and I can truly say that this is the best VN that I have played which uses real porn. The developer clearly has good taste in women based on the actresses that were chosen to portray the characters of the story. I love that it uses POV scenes instead of the third person view. It is also evident that a lot of time and effort were used in creating this game. It also caters to a lot of kinks and fetishes which are all optional. The sex scenes are hot and there's a lot of it. I am hoping for more scenes with the three sisters especially Ashley.

So good. Doing real porn and videos in a Renpy VN is an interesting idea and the developer delivers. I like the selection of girls and the amount of effort put into editing them into a cohesive story is incredible.

Imagine Lifeselector but with an actual story to tie the porn scenes together.

The story will not bore you with hundreds of lines of dialogue and the game maintains a POV perspective the entire time which is very immersive. It feels like the dev has created an entire porn studio dedicated to shooting videos for this game. The girls are hot and varied which is a plus. The hottest moments are when you get a glimpse of a very attractive model and you know that if you play your cards right you will very likely get to fuck her later on.

Review for X-mas Episode : So i had the pleasure of playing the X-mas episode and finishing it all scenes as usual, i like the sandbox elements added to the game, and i want more for the main game of this, The sandbox elements, are helping build up the stories, but still we need more build up for the girls so we care to even fuck them, and not feel like we are just watching porno, The Scenes need more involvement from the Writer of the game, you need to use each character personality, and bring them into the scene, you need to make the scene have more talk between the MC and the girls, there is improvement, but it needs to improve more, you need to maybe take a page from other games, and see how they write sex scenes, how they build up the relationships, because you don't need much here, Good writing can bring this game to the 5 star threshold, right now its just a 3 stars, but i don't want to give it less for now.
Review for Episode 1 : its one of the top 5 real porn games on this site for sure.
the walkthrough for part 1 made me miss 4 scenes, we can unlock them but i was interested what did i need to do differently to get them.
the game also explores so many kinks, and if u r like me its a treasure box, i just watch everything.
i also like the little videos walking down the stores opening a door having breakfast, it just makes the game flow, now i only played part 1, the story was not that great yet, but i am really hopeful for part 2, and part 3 when its finished.
great job and thanks for the experience
Review for Episode 2 : So I played part 2 and there is a glaring issue with the game, all these relationships with these girls need more work, i find the hottest ones were the sisters because they actually took time till they came to fruition.
But i found myself not giving a fuck about any of the other girls, except Reagan with her stretchy asshole.
Also the game needs to scramble scenes, i get sick and tired even with the hottest girl, i shouldn't be getting 3x ash scenes in a row or 3x mom scenes on a row or 3x dani scenes in a row, they need to be different lineup, specially since the scenes are way too long.

Long Scenes and Videos instead of small GIFs. Very Nice!
Sort of an interesting Story as well, even if it's very linear.
To the End of 0.8 there is too much Video in a small period. Please think of a little bit more story between the Scenes.
I hope and can't wait for more content soon!

I like it. I think the developer has great taste in women and I want to see this story fleshed out more. The use of content featuring real actresses means that there may be some limitations in terms of story progression and variety of choice but I feel that the dev has done a good enough job of stringing the various video clips together, and us with it.

This is just collection of porn clips tied together with minimum amount of interactivity. Also why the hell there is so much unnecessary amount of clips like making coffee and walking a street? Yeah, this is basically more of a way of pirating porn clips than a game.

After playing this game my first thought is there is not too much "Game" in this game. It is mostly just POV porn and a few options.
Some people like that and that's why this game has a 2-star instead of a 1-star one.

I like my porn games to be porny but it's got to fit together to at least maintain a suspension of disbelief. This game does not do that very well. The pacing is all over the place. Sometimes to trip and fall into a threesome, other times you flirt with someone perfectly and they ask you to leave. I assume it was the designer's choice but it's inconsistent and jarring. Either make things a bit slower to fit the slow build scenes, or make the slow scenes faster.

TLDR: what porn there is, is good, but the game is bad and personally, id rather just find the source video or the lifeplay game it came from.

Went into the game with no real expectations but it's very good videos wise. You will definitely enjoy it if you like pov porn in general. Better than the usual HTML games with videos inserted. Writing is little poor but i really enjoyed it initially. In recent releases it degraded bad

Version Played: 0.6
Time Played: About 2 hours, completed content though used a gallery cheat to see scenes I missed.

My only experience with the "real porn" tag has a been a now defunct visual novel set in Japan. I have to say, in terms of visual options, real porn has to be my least favorite as it somehow feels the least creative or the "easy way out." (Note: This is just a feeling; I don't think making a game is "easy" by any stretch of the imagination, so perhaps this is more of a "prejudice.") However, as with just about anything, execution is everything, and while The Agency hasn't exactly left a burning desire in me to seek out more in the style, it is well-made.

Positives
+ Broad selection of women with something for everyone (leans heavily into white chicks though, with one woman who looks mixed and no Asians)
+ The amount of time and care put into the game is evident
+ Potentially interesting set up, narratively
+ Ample amount of porn with a decent amount of fetishes even at this stage

Negatives
- Plot is very slow-moving, with the main hook of the titular agency not seeming to be even close to implementation
- English could use a lot of work
- The MC (ie male actor) will change from scene to scene (duh), which could be potentially very immersion-breaking for some.
- Minor, but the file size is freaking huge. As the game is only going to get bigger, dev needs to look into some compression options STAT. There are also some transition scenes like walking down hallways or opening doors that could easily be cut with no detriment to the game (though I can understand why they were included).

As it stands, since the main plot hasn't really gotten going yet, your interest in this game is going to really hinge on whether or not you're a) into real porn, a') whether or not you find the actresses attractive. If you're on the fence, I think this is a pretty decent place to start. If this were a game with DAZ3D or HS graphics, I would probably be more interested, but as it stands, I won't be waiting for future installments with bated breath.

Note to devs: Thank you for the game! Please look into compression ideas for a "low-spec" download option. Please try to get someone to proof your English. Get the main plot on the rails sooner rather than later.

I like the fact that the POV scenes immerse you in the game and I also appreciate how much incest is in the game. The thing that prevents me from enjoying it however is the dialogue. English is obviously not the creators first language and they don't know how people actually talk in conversations with others. I am usually very picky when it comes to dialogue so it might not bother others as much, but it ruins it for me. Most of the scenes seem rather fabricated and I'd like more realism, but again, maybe I am expecting too much of a porn game.
Not my thing, but there is probably still an audience for the game so take my opinions with a grain of salt and give it a try if you think you might enjoy it.

Thats not a realy good game, there is a lot of work to do but there is a qualitty what makes it to a "must get 5 Stars" game.

Most games arround, we have seen multiple times in the past but this is complete different, new.

it´s like to become a part of the game itself and it must ne be verry difficult to find theese 3-d video parts takes that will fit the story.

its a new gaming experience and this allone will get 5 stars

the story, quality of clips? Not importand in this case, it is defenitly worth a must try.
