Ren'Py Abandoned The DeLuca Family [Season 1] [HopesGaming]

[MonkeyLord]

very interesting and lively story. the characters are really original and endearing. the gameplay is complete but easy to use. small negative point the romance side is too important, the progress of sexual relations is slow. not enough sex ... too much romance. otherwise it's one of the best games i have played

Eh, first thing first, put those screenshots into Spoiler, pls

Second, if you consider in-game time, it's pretty fast already. It's been like what? A month, give or take? Do you seriously think you can get to have sex with member of a mafia family in that amount of time being only a lowly servant? The game aims to be a realistic story, not just lewd for the sake of lewd, that has been stressed abundantly in this thread.

I have a little problem. By redoing a new part, there's a piece of Isabel's quest missing. The part where you have to do a quest to steal a bottle and then where she explains her miscarriage with the kiss, that led me directly to a dialogue that mentions it. Anyone else have the same problem? Just like I got an error message a little later and I got the yoga scene without buying the outfit.

I tested a method I was given, but it doesn't change anything: https://f95zone.to/threads/traduction-en-francais-french-translation.26002/post-3214911
An update is planned to fix this bug ? Thank you in advance!

The bug has been known of since the release of the update, there's a fix in the OP, which I assume is what has been given to you is based on. If that doesn't work, it's might be better to ask the people who helped you, as I'm fairly sure Hopes doesn't speak French.

Alternatively, there's always the saves I uploaded on page 432 of the thread. Some people with corrupted save and failed to fix things with the fix given by Hopes have resorted to using my saves. While it's not a permanent fix, it is an option if you just want to see what's new in the update.

Everyone's entitled to their opinions of course but the large majority of fans here disagree, but on a site flooded with games about how many girls you can fuck as fast as possible, its refreshing to get one more focused on a well written story with great plot & character development imho >;D

Be careful friend, you tread on sacred ground, now the Godesses' Army slumbers, but the faint steps of trespassing interlopers tend to stroke the psyche of the sleeping beast.

Kidding, but seriously fans who adore Luna = like 90% of us, you don't have to like her, we don't want to share anyway =P

But shouldn't we combined our efforst against someone like Luna (or Gracie or Cordia for the records) ortherwise we simple could ne overwhelmed by them

Luna's mine, keep your hands away from her

What I usually do, and would advice other people to do as well, is this: If you just want a quick fap, try literally 90% of the other games on the site. I have not used this game for that purpose yet, I may in the future when we progress a lot more. But for now, this game is enjoyable for so many other reasons. There are porn games where people just need the dumbest excuse to fk like rabbits, and then there are games like this one where it's more like a story about life, and the sex is in it simply because it's a part of life.

When the civil wars starts between the four girls, my heart will be broken in pieces and I will be unable to pick side. I found the four irresistible.
This never happens to me that I love all the heroines as much.

FIX for Isabels past quest (the intro and the drinking questline) not showing as complete.

Again, only download if you got the issue. Should be able to start the new Isabel content at her room while she is reading.

Replace the script in the game folder.

The patch isn't working for me.

You're telling me! Right now, aside from Lady Cordia, all three other girls' best qualities all reminded me what I loved about my ex. And while I'm over my ex, I think, I do have a specific type I always fall for, and as a result, my heart is already torn in three for them...

The patch isn't working for me.

Hmm, have you tried deleting the persistent file in appdata?

Gonna sound wierd but for me it wasn't Luna's looks or body, tho theres zero complaints from me, it was that 'I got ur back to death & beyond' mentality, the whole ride or die, but we doing it together part. Maybe it's her loyalty but that All In attitude really turns me on...yes I'm wierd lmao >;D

Thank you, now I feel less weird about feeling that way

Must have been a hell of a woman.

Does not sound weird at all. What I love about Luna most is her personality. She is too cute! Like a little puppy you want to cuddle all night.

They are all really amazing. I still not sure how the thing is going to go. I hope the "war" for MC's love is totally awesome and quite a big deal inside the DeLuca Family. Not just a simple "ok, I see you pick my sister, all good, treat her well my friend". I really want chaos. Sorry I am fucked up, I know. Don't get me wrong, I love them so much I also would enjoy a lovely "harem" route, which I usually find not very interesting as there is no conflict. What I don't want is that picking a girl has pretty much no consequences in the story with the other girls. And they "taking it too well" would be sad.

Must have been a hell of a woman.

To be fair, all the girls also have many other qualities that makes them into real and incredible human beings. What I was saying is that, if we were to slice everyone's personalities into small pieces, each of the girl in this game would possesses a few of the pieces that would attract me. It just so happened my ex had some of those small pieces as well. We're all attracted to different people for different reasons, after all.

Basically, for me personally, I like Luna for her personality, Gracie for her smart yet cluelessness, and Isabel for her behavior.

Folder saves ? They're coming back.

I feel & agree with ya 120%, all the girls are such unique bombshells in their own ways it Should be a difficult choice & going by how each of them seems to be slowly but surely developing feeling for MC (except Gracie, I feel she is, tho the Dev has done an amazing job at writing her persona as Impossible to read, which I actually enjoy the suspense & unpredictability of) they Should want to show MC why they're worth fighting for (not that he couldn't see himself) but I feel none of them are the type to 'go belly up' when presented with a challenging situation. If theres a 'fight' for his affections it should be visceral, chaotic & emotional, lmao we both share that aspect of being fuck'd up that way >;D

Tho I'm not gonna lie I'm ALWAYS wanting a harem route But with this title i can truly see myself replaying it once for each girls solo route (if it would have solo path exclusive content) AND again for the harem route!

Hi, is there a French translation for version 0.06? thank you

Hi, is there a French translation for version 0.06? thank you

scroll back a few pages, or use the search function, I think one was posted, though I don't use it, so idk for sure.

 

[spooge_nugget]

Actually, the difference between us is, when I saw the thread hasn't been updated for a long time, the first question that popped into my head was "did anything happen to the dev that it took him so long to update?", and not jumping immediately to the conclusion that the 6 months wait is equal to 6 months work. So I went and search the thread for clues to that first and not asking what you did.

I admit that my initial post was impulsive and I only thought about that possibility at a later time, by which point the genie was already out of the bottle.

You pretty much just answered your own question. Not everyone plays the same way. For some people, the new content took only 10 minutes. For some people, it took a few hours. For some of those like myself, who want to get all the enjoyment out of it, as well as taking notes in term of storytelling, it took like 8 hours+. So your question is vague because you didn't give any relevant information as to how you play, or what you're actually looking for in a given game update.

I guess I was naive to assume it was obvious that I would mean an estimate based on playing through as intended (i.e. reading the dialog). Obviously everyone plays games/VN's and such differently, but they often have an estimated play time. Honestly, the answer you just gave to the question was more than enough to get a rough grasp of the amount of content in the update, so thank you.

This brought me back to the point I originally made, though. You made a generalization AND an assumption, not just for yourself, but for "most", or even "many", of the fanbase, without doing any research to see if that claim held any truth to it. If you just said, "I feel xyz", that's fine, everyone is entitled to have their own opinions. But you kept assuming that there are many people who feel the same as you do, even now, while a quick search of the thread shows differently.

Yes, it is a generalization I made based off of what I've seen around the forums with works of this genre. I've seen a good number of people in threads whose first action in a VN/game of this genre is to mute everything. They don't often comment on the audio, as that isn't part of their experience due to muting it and then ignoring it (you'll often see them pop up when audio plays even though they've muted everything). You also need to take into consideration that a large chunk of the playerbase don't actually comment (i.e. they're lurkers). It could also be said that you yourself are making a generalization and assumption based on a few comments, whereas if you were to look at the unique users that even just mention the words music, audio or sound in a post compared to the current 1,924 likes and such, it would be a small fraction of the playerbase (please note that I'm not claiming that all those that haven't mentioned it don't care for it).

Luna's storyline is boring and cringy

I am only one who find luna's storyline cringy ?

But I misspoke. It is not that I dislike harem routes per se. I don't want them to be trivial. A Harem route has to be like super hard to get from a story point of view. Give me the highest hopes, crush them, take me to despair and save me later. Something like that. With tears, blood and sweet require to get it.
And probably more important they dont make sense in a lot of situations. I am not sure how consistently it can be introduced in this novel. I am very interested to find out, however, if it is done with the same level of quality as the rest of the content.

Yep, hooking up with every hottie you desire & being successful at it should always be the most hard earned, unless I guess the dev is going for the whole 'fuck em' all & right now' style. Having a harem should be the cherry(s) on top >;D
