Ren'Py The Awakening [v0.4.6b] [SLim Games]

[Naotix]

Nah, the story was initially blatantly focussed on the 'brother/sister' relationship.

The prologue sure. (which will be reworked next.)

We got to the very brink of them consummating their relationship, then the 'sister' just vanished from the story. If she was not intended to be central to the overall story, then it was a very deceitful and disingenuous beginning, presumably done because incest is a popular fetish that is guaranteed to bring in the punters.

This wasn't the intention. The story's scope wasn't finalized and SLim was originally writing the story as he progressed. Now we have actual individual "arcs" all considered equal.

You can say 'the sister was never intended to be the central relationship' now, but it is a clear bait & switch if you do.

False. It was just the character he was writing at the time of those early updates. (It also makes sense considering the setup.)

This is without even getting into the other examples of bad VN writing that we're seeing. Such as starting up storylines with multiple new characters then just moving on to others before they reach any kind of satisfying conclusion.

This game is ongoing in development, we won't solely focus on just a single characters arc to completion because there's times that they will intertwine. I also disagree that this is "bad VN writing" because it's the basis of any storytelling that's not linear.

I'm not saying this is a bad VN, I kinda like it. Not as much as I used to, when I backed it for several updates after launch, but I still think it has potential. But it's clearly been losing it's way. Maybe it's starting to get back on track, we'll see.

Hopefully over time you can enjoy whoever it is you like to focus on when the relationships are filled out. I will say there's MUCH more consistency now than before. It went from just SLim writing on the fly like I said before, to an actual thought-out story. He has a vision, I'll help him see it through. We're not making the story for others, or due to popularity with a character/fetish he has something he wants to express and all of our progress is to get to this goal. This is why I mentioned originally to re-evaluate. How this *incomplete* story is perceived may change as it's developed since it's not done but no content is being cut or changed from the original premise.

Thanks for the feedback, hopefully I cleared some stuff up for you.

I mean if you talked with victoria, your teacher stat gets increased by 1

which means you should be able to attend it.

is your teacher at 3 right now?
and make sure u have 0.4.0a, not sure if it got updated here on the forum

 

[MetalChicken]

Had some problems where the text speed was getting reset from instantaneous after setting it manually, put together a small thing to go around whatever's happening

 

[_NAMELESS_]

Unexpectedly quick reply
I didn't find the line I was looking for, should've made a screenshot as soon as I noticed.



I am well aware, I have a relatively old GPU myself. XD
Replacing the strand hair with card hair should be the only issue though. The (head) meshes come with 8 LODs, and the appropriate materials. Get rid of all the fuzz and other strand hair and you should be left with some nice photo-realistic game-ready assets. IIRC some of the models have card hair on non-cinematic LODs.

I haven't experienced this issue. Maybe you already advanced the quest and didn't notice? (just guessing here) You could try checking in Klara's office, if she's there click on her; or maybe try talking to Victoria again. Last resort would probably be to start a new game using the quick start option.

edit: oh snap, SLim is a ninja

the quest didnt advance and klara not in the office and when i go to Victoria it says underdevelopment

So, it has been a while since I've played the game. I loaded up my save file with 4.0 and checked to see how many new events we will have....

Holy crap that's a lot of emphasis on the teacher. o.o;;

Any chance we will get some more with my favorite redheaded milf? Or the twins?
Looking forward to more with my favorite cat-maid, but kinda sad so much emphasis was put on the least interesting character.
I mean, hell, I'd like my favorite stripper before her! (seen left)
Also, what happened to the package girl? I don't see her on here unless I'm blind...

 

[RB70]

I thought the writing would get better, I was SO wrong. The writing is like someone who has NEVER met a woman,

 

[walkerjonny]

Has anyone encountered the same issue that when pressing the H key instead of the controls going into hiding the whole screen goes either blank or becomes black?
Happens to me for quite some animations. I didn't have this kind of effect with any other Ren'py novel.

could you possibly send me your save file? I have no idea why it won't show up on your end, I just tested it and it works for everyone else.

 

[HalGLC]

My gut reactions is this is entirely too long to wait for an update (I know, he's got another game, follow me here)

but then I see the update and holy crap, it's incredible

it got fixed it was either the walkthrough mod or the incest patch
thank you for taking the time to look into it

 

[TravisTheLightBoss]

what we gonna do now??

Wait until the next bugfix? This is unfortunate man.. would be nice to know if anyone else is having the same problems as well and if we're the only crazies on this roadblock...

 

[_Utakata_]

Is there a gallery mod ?

 

[thealucid]

This wasn't the intention. The story's scope wasn't finalized and SLim was originally writing the story as he progressed. Now we have actual individual "arcs" all considered equal.

Yeah, my impression is that, while the story was originally written as incest, after patreon came down the dev wrote the game such that it doesn't leave the relationship between the characters open interpretation any more. Like it's pretty explicit the roommate isn't the MC's sister and the landlady isn't the MC's mother, and the fanmade patch does nothing to cover that up.

Is there a gallery mod ?

"cheatmod" in OP

 

[gshaa9]

After updating to 4.0.0a there is no voiceover for shopping with mom and teacher tasks. Is it suppose to be that way?

 

[Havenless_]

I fucking love this game. <3

Everything good has already been said, but I want to emphasize something, which is what I like the most about this game. More specifically, about this update. (Basically because it has been several months since I played the previous content and I don't remember everything well)
