VN Ren'Py The East Block [v0.8.2] [Bobbyboy Productions]

[MagicMan753]

Sorry man, it is clear you do not see the problem!
Kati blowing the beach happens due to choices made before and during it, so players liking pure romance, sharing/swinging or NTR can shape the event to their liking.
The Pat event instead is hardcoded. Kati stays with a man Luke despises no matter what choices you made before. See the difference? Only the NTR fans like this manure, it is completely impossible to decide that Kati leaves with Luke and kicks Pat into the curb where he belongs. Even if L/K have an exemplary relationship, she decides to stay with an obvious as... and cheat on Luke. Invalidating any choices done in 7-8 chapters before this event.

Yeah this is the main problem and for some reason so many can't get it through there thick skulls, like we are complaining just cause of NTR. I still hope someday Bobby will change this down the line, even near end of game and rework stuff, cause it just feels bad to me and invalidates prior scenes like her crying to me.

I am a bit more calm, but one thing I think SHOULD definitely happen is after making up, a really good sex scene(she mentions "giving us best sex ever"when she got home). Something that mixes roughness and love. Add some spanking in there, maybe some slight choking, but can also add some kisses and other stuff. I think adding a bit more rough stuff, could help show the hurt she caused him, while also making up and showing they are still together and in love.

So this could make up for and hope that line Bobbyboy48 inserted about giving us best sex ever wasn't a throw away, cause this could alleviate my concerns a bit, as long as he follows through.
He should also change some of those AI animations, specifically lingerie show and cam show, being the worst. Some are really good, but some are like really, really bad, so some sort of adjustment.

(Also I really hope the dev let's us have fun with Rebacca with Kathryn's permission. I want some sex with her, no cheating, please Bobby, this would also help me feel better.)

So I'm going to take that advice and ignore the thread again for now. Sorry for getting so emotional guys it's just this game and Kathryn mean so much to me. It wa the reason I rejoined Patreon after all.

But a break will do me good so bye for now friends.

So I saw before that there was dialogue between Kat and Pat and her saying she might come back single from the vacation. This is after the dance right?

Well I didn't get that dialogue. Also Luke never went to the dance to begin with, and that's cause of a choice I made like a year ago or something.

Kat also didn't sit on Franklin's cock this update, or jerk of Albert. She also didn't masturbate at the hotel so nothing happened. Luke was worried, makes sense since the phones didn't have signal. But that can just be cleared up easily.

Not sure what's going on with the route where Luke goes to the dance though, sounds lame. Anyway I'm not getting any NTR vibes from my route.

Yeah Ironically the choice that many thought would lead to NTR ( Luke not going to the dance with Pat and Kat) feels the best imo. While id argue the motel scene still has a NTR feel to it even if you don't go with that choice. Just because it does feel kind of weird not to get separate rooms

 

[Xill]

I believe Luke won't trust her. He will always suspect she did something, especially when she mentions they slept in the same motel room. The distrust will be intensified by the fact that Luke knows his father desires Kat.

But why can't that be a simple choice of "trust/believe her" and "don't trust/don't believe her" that you get to make as Luke? You got a choice before during the webcam stream to apologize or not. Seems like a good spot to make a choice like that.

Or maybe, and this is the darkest part, this is exactly what he wants: for their relationship to deteriorate more and more. With Kat thinking Luke betrayed her and Luke thinking she slept with his father, the relationship is likely to end, as she told Pat that she "might come back single from vacation." Why would he include that dialogue if he wasn't thinking of bringing their relationship to an end?

Does this only happen if Luke goes to the dance?

This is a trope. I've seen it in other VN's where it's supposed to be about sharing. The updates end at that part too. The difference here is that there's a choice between actually going NTR or not.

Yeah I should of said NTR setup cause one thing this game does right is give you a chance to say no to NTR

We weren't given the chance to tell Pat to piss off and leave the couple alone. That's my main issue with this whole thing. I DID NOT WANT TO SEE PAT EVER AGAIN after the last meeting, ffs.

Obviously he's meant to be a big part of the story now, so both routes, if you can call 'nothing happens' route a real route, WILL involve him.

Holy shit that AI video of Nathan laughing was cursed. People really need to be more critical of their products when using AI.

I kind of feel he left that in as a joke to be honest cause there is no way he thought it was good. Especially cause the game seems to always have this creepy smile / facial expressions from time to time like in the subway so I felt like it had to be on purpose.

Just finished the update. I enjoyed it - because I like the developer's writing and presentation style, but I'm also definitely more of a NTR fan than NTS fan. I've been waiting for the NTR stuff and we finally got it, albeit with some "porn plot".

Some of the AI stuff was kinda bad, but in general, I like the addition of animations, especially the non-sex ones. The bad animations were the ones in the apartment - like the dancing one and the one where she is modeling the clothes. The one with Nate laughing is certainly cartoonish, but I thought this was by design and so I didn't mind it. Also, I knew that this was a new implemenation for the developer, so I thought it was pretty good for first time and I expect him to get even better.

I fully agree that Kat would/should leave with Luke after the fight. There's really no circumstance where she would stay alone with Pat. (And for the same reason, why would she ever go to the dance alone with Pat? Ehh porn plot, I guess.) Also, stopping to spend the night at the motel because it's raining is pretty laughable. And of course, no rooms with two beds.

However, I love how the developer uses the fade transitions between renders to set up scenes. For me, it creates a cinematic effect and I personally love it. Also, the final scene where it's going back and forth between Luke pondering and Kat getting plowed is so, so great. I am a patreon supporter FTR and this cinematic technique is worth my support.

I'm probably one of only a few with this kink, but I thought this was an opportunity for Kat to call someone "daddy" during sex. IMO would have been great if it went like this - shot of Luke looking all sad and regretful for being a petulant child and wondering what Kat is doing at that moment... and then jump-cut to her screaming daddy as she is getting railed.

To conclude, I enjoyed it, but I understand the criticism regarding the choices made. Some people really hate AI and animations, and although I'm not one of of them, I can agree not all of them were good. I'd much rather read this type of criticism than all the wankers crying about how long the updates take.

 

[Joshy92]

I know I said I was leaving but I just wanted to say I do feel better now, I hope I didn't worry my friends in here.

I'm looking to the future now and imagining Kathryn getting her pussy absolutely destroyed by some hung stud. Hopefully flasher is very virile

So yeah you guys are looking at the new and improved Joshy. Let's get excited for chapter 9.
