Ren'Py The DeLuca Family [v0.09.6] [HopesGaming]

[Ayhsel]

Something else that has been on my mind a bit.

So far, known characters who are in sort of same generation (or age category I guess) as the MC would be:

- Luna
- Gracie
- Jalen
- Charvi
- Eiza

But I can't help but think there will be more.
Like the other 4 major Crime Families out of the Big 5, their heirs (or even if not heir apparent, their other children [Like Luna & Gracie to Antonio who is heir apparent in DeLucas])?

Perhaps:

- one of the Family's son is a highly intelligent individual (comparable to Gracie) who schemes a lot for his amusement, and considers all other families as pawns in a chessboard.
- one of the Family's daughter is tired of the life in the Family's business and tries to run away and encounters MC by chance?
- one of the Family's son is an introvert who is a disappointment to his father, the Don?
- one of the Family's daughter is a charismatic individual with good leader attributes?

and so on, and so on.

I mean yes I guess there was Straffan, and some punks here and there (such as during MC's promotion event), but I'd be really interested in knowing some unique same generation as MC characters who get really decent amount of interaction with MC, outside his inner circle of trust.

Yep. That and pretty much so many open subplots were my claims that 10% of total plot was more plausible than 30%. I mean, the 30% was Hopes estimation so that is what we should use as better measure, but it does feel that so many things will be left untouched.

 

[Ayhsel]

Yepp, you are correct, that is EXACTLY what is happening here!

wait.... what? since when was Hopes declared Lord?

I think I remember Cordia's conversation with Giocabbe (when Giocabbe asks her to spare Straffan for the sake of their alliance), and they reminince about the old times. Cordia, a young girl was a dark horse and took everyone by surprise, including the "traditionalist old geezers of that time"

Now Cordia is older and and there is a younger generation. Yet, the characters mentioned or introduced, pretty much almost all of them are in his circle or trust.
So it would be good to add more to the character in the MC-Luna-Gracie age group. Whether they become friend or foe, it can depend on the story.
Because as of right now, DeLuca feels like it has a lot of compelling characters in Cordia's generation and also Antonio's age group as well, but I think it could possibly benefit from more younger generation characters i.e. uprising sprouts.

I'm sure Hopes would know best when to introduce such characters, but it could possibly be fun to have the MC meet them when he participates in the Frenetico Tournament, which is basically Olympic Games in the DeLuca universe (mostly it's the Family soldiers who are the participants, but the narrative is that sometimes heirs participate in them to boost the morale of the Family or something)

Yeah that would be awesome. And if there was another promotion event everything would go super awesome and yeah for sure we need a naughty scene with Luna....... I hope hopes give a satisfying update

The creator said back in December that the update will be released before the new year. Then he said that he would release it in January ... then February ... already March))).

Out of curiosity, is the developer friends with ICSTOR?

He said New Year alright, just didn't specify the year.

yes they both used to hang out very often and were best buddies but one day when hopes stole the deluca story from Icstor, they both fought very much and were separated. I really hope they both rekindle their relationship and make a game together.

you are right. however I was surprised that his best friend was the head of another family
if Straffan is really dead (maybe they didn't kill him but he just passed out?), he should have a younger brother
chissà se il MC è figlio unico o ha dei fratelli ?!


----------------------

I would like to ask you all for a question, after the scene of Luna with the gun to her head, is it not that she could soften too much and lose concentration, now that she has become too attached to the protagonist? Because Grace with flirtation has always remained the same, the only one is Luna who seems almost "more docile"

And? You get the "development" part of this, right? And considering Hopes has updated us on the progress all the way, I fail to see that we have ANY reason to complain!

Out of curiosity, is the developer friends with ICSTOR?

Couldn't care less if thet have been in a realtionship for the last 15 years (no offense Hopes ), they are separate people so different views and different outcomes

IDK, it kinda feels like quite an even split, so far?
We have Cordia, Wilfred, Giocabbe + Father of MC's friend from that age group. Are there more? Can't remember others, apart from the old guy in town who owns the freezer.
Then Antonio, Isabell & Serpents(?) from that age group.
Then MC, Gracie, Luna, Eiza + sister, MC's friend + his sister & Straffan, all from MC's age group. (I didn't include Joey, as we're not talking about mental age! lol)

Cordia's age group feels the least represented, with MC's age the most, from that.

 

[whichone]

you are right. however I was surprised that his best friend was the head of another family

Was a surprise but, don't forget, he was his friend long before MC became a part of the DeLuca family.

I would like to ask you all for a question, after the scene of Luna with the gun to her head, is it not that she could soften too much and lose concentration, now that she has become too attached to the protagonist? Because Grace with flirtation has always remained the same, the only one is Luna who seems almost "more docile"

I think you're right, she is notably more docile, but only when she's alone with the protagonist.
Externally, though... The scene where she unloaded her guns into the guys face, screaming "Diiiiiieeeee!!!!" was really the polar opposite of docile!

You are awasome mate, each one is more beatiful than other. I would put all 6 six of them to my signature if I could. (counting black and transparent background as 1)

Sorry to interrupt but my name is Luna mission and oath between Luna and MC was after that, so there is a chance for her to soften. I hope she wont soften though, she is magnificient as it is.

True, but I don't notice her being softer when others are around, still.
Like it's special behaviour, reserved only for MC.
