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

[JJJ84]

I actually hadn't thought about that, but it looks like an interesting thread to follow, we really don't know much about the MC or his past, just slivers of it, really can't wait to see more about that.

So far, the game hasn't been that heavy on flashbacks usage other than My name is Luna event (which was huge), but in my eyes I think there would obviously be some threads in the story that would require some extensive flashbacks usage again. In Layla's case, I think the story may benefit from such flashbacks as:

- MC's first meeting with not just Jalen, but the whole Kaskar Family
- perhaps some lessons Layla gives to MC and her children as well
- Jalen, Charvi & MC get in trouble and Layla punishes them

She's not as big character as the main 4 girls, but her character sure has the potential to be multi-layered in terms of personality and psyche, and not just become a one-dimensional typical housewife, if her story is delved into more.

this is my very first serious talk here so bear with me please .
like most people here i played this game for the story and character development for each character. not for fab or sex scene. BUT
NGL this game was my top 3 games in this site . and i had high hope for the game to be completed but the way the game is heading it will never be completed .
the dev started with 3 amazing updates with max 2\3 month development ... then the excuses started (i'm ill / i had accident / i had family problems you name it ) when the excuses become too much he had an new excuses (IT JUST A HOBBY).
then the gap between each update started to get bigger from 2/3 month to 6/8 month and now if and that is a big if he deliver an update in the end of this month it will complete one year without an update .( i just wont him to be honest with himself before us)

before some of you start coming for my head i wont you to know that i really love this game but the way thing going is so frustrating to watch.
and i'm sorry if what i said is annoying for some of you but i had to say it .. i will take my leave now good luck with your game man i really hope you complete your game one day .
have a nice day every one .

sorry for my bad english

true, I'm not a fan of dream sequences and flashbacks but the way Hopes has done it was really good so I wouldn't mind, more so because in this game the Mc's past is important, as it explains a lot about who he is and how he reacts to things, so I can totally see this motherly figure having some influence on him and how he acts.

says calmly: I can see where you are coming from but you said so yourself the first updates took 2-3 months, and then he had real-life problems which account for a double-time 6-8 months or so(not forgetting holidays, family time, personal time, and work time), and then we have this update that is bigger than any other, it is basically remaking the game, and people are disappointed and surprised it takes longer than 8 months? if you account for the normal 2-3, plus the problems covid brought 6-8 plus remaking a significant system change it is only logical to become 12-16 months, it is the same passing that it ever was, I'm not hating or bashing you but your logic makes no sense to me.

Yeah, exactly. And for present day scenes, I'd actually love for there to be some sort of interaction between Cordia & Wilfred with Pops and Layla, with both Kaskars questioning (with reactions ranging from skepticism to threats [like Jalen did towards Luna and Gracie]) whether the MC being with the DeLucas is the best for his wellbeing.

Interactions like that would go a long way towards character developments (for both Pops and Layla), and in my eyes would involve quite a bit of interesting dialogue (maybe also add Antonio in the mix for that meeting, since he tends to be on the short tempered in terms of personality, and might just make the meeting volatile in some instances, between him and Pops interactions).

I also don't remember Hopes ever saying being a game dev was his job. Hopes said from the very beginning that making games was a hobby, which he does outside his actual job.

So it was never an excuse, as this person says.
He's like waaaaaaaay off base here.

Although I like this idea I have the impression that Pops is too far gone for a meeting like that, I feel that next time we see him we won't be on the same side, probably with Jalen asking for the Mc or the Deluca's help, he was known for being volatile and pretty much a butcher but even Jalen is worried about just how far from the edge his father is.

Just my theory, but I'm getting the feeling Pops will get backstabbed by his brother (Jalen's uncle), and die, leaving Jalen & Charvi (and possibly Layla, though she might just die with her husband) to take asylum with the DeLucas, joining their side.

Pops is just trusting his brother and inner circle of Kaskars way too much, despite Jalen's warnings.

But even if that happens, I do hope we can get some decent scenes with the whole Kaskar Family with MC (and perhaps Luna, Gracie) visiting the family's mansion.

oh yeah, I forgot that the uncle was still alive, I could have sworn Jalen had killed him already, well then maybe we will have the MC help Jalen deal with the uncle and then Pops visits the Deluca to actually understand what happened.

My new custom DeLuca fan-sig (kudos to Lady Aspen, one of the GFX designers for making this for me).

Everyone, feel free to use it if you wish.

Not sure if I'm remembering this correctly, but I think I do remember seeing Hopes say that there will be some female Kaskar family members (so far, we've only seen men).
Perhaps she is a member of the Kaskar Family's inner circle?
Yeah, I'm intrigued.

I know Jalen has a sister, don't know if it is her, might be just an old friend of them though

blowjob, handjob, boobjob and similar "jobs" shouldnt be called sex, at least not in the porn site.
there are few hot chicks, though no one particularly hot, so it is sad that we are forced to play it by reading all those narration, dialogues, perform various contracts/side jobs, we have, or have not any interest,...and at the end there is no reward, aka sex.
it is a long time in development already, and if the dev wanna to maintain, or even increase support, thats something he needs to work on much harder than atm he does.

I have read some of your messages -up to page 734-, there are some things I agree and dont agree with you and I will oppose that I dont agree, if its okay for you too

First of all, if we disregard character creating, back story, story telling etc than what is the logic behind playing an "adult game" instead of watching straight up porn or hentai? What is the difference then? Besides, even hentai and porn videos have some story entrance, they are not opening videos with fucking each other directly If story is such a waste of time then why are bothering?

Secondly as far as I know F95 zone is not a porn site directly, its more like a nude art/game forum, I have seen games with "No sexual content" which are quite conflicting "F95 is a porn site" view.

in this game, girls are ok, though i cant understand thaty hype regarding Luna. She is kinda a dumb-girl, and too violent to my liking, yet she is adored by many as far as i can see.

Come dude, really? Dont look her as a jerking object, it is her story taht hyping Luna. How in the world Luna is dumb anyway, I am listening dumber conversation every day from people from age 20 to age 30

Note; I am trying to read all pages I missed so I will be coming from reaaly back in conversation

 

[JJJ84]

Had a feeling it's a different person other than Charvi, though I could be wrong.
Ugh, there's so many things that can be explored in this world, can't believe the game's already 30% done.

 

[Lord Verminaard]

Okay, following is a character that I don't see really get discussed:

Layla Kaskar (or wife of "Pops", Jalen & Charvi's mother).
So far, all we know is the slipper that she throws at Pops when he gives the boys (MC & Jalen) advice, but if I'm being honest I'd like to know more.

What she looks like, has she really got a temper or was the slipper just an instance of annoyance/anger?
Because yes, Pops basically became a foster father figure when MC as a kid came to live in the Kaskar Family, and I think Layla would have been just as influential in shaping MC's character as a person from his childhood as Pops was.

We'll probably get to find out in our trip to the Kaskar Family estate.

It's still probably a while away, but regardless I'm looking forward to it.

Wait a minute, did her name ever mentioned in the game? I remember that slipper very well but cant remember her name.

I also do think MC did mention something along the lines of "Pops and Aunt Layla....." etc when he thinks to himself, but don't remember exactly where.

These flashbackswould really be awasome And I definetely want to see the Original Serpents in long and exciting flashback

Antonio and Pops in the same room? Say hello to Kaskar-De Luca War

Aunt Layla's slipper:

I really missed that part By the way, thanks for new signature, its great

Yeah. Her name goes by quickly, so it's very easy to miss.
All good points.

You're welcome regarding the fan sig. Glad you like it.

(hit my reaction limit for today it seems).

I'm really looking forward to the missions and how they can be tackled, I mean I'm not expecting a AAA side quest but from the wait and the inspiration, trials in tainted space and corruption of champions were mentioned I believe, I think they'll be interesting, as long as the explanation text doesn't have too much fluff, that is the only thing that I don't like about Tits and coc was better about it.
