VN Ren'Py Abandoned The Intoxicating Flavor [v0.10.6] [PixelsLab]

[coldman]

Inconsistent updates, way to long scenes with conversations that last for miles (not to mention no animation and same pictures that are used for multiple movements). Developer I JUST HAVE TO ASK YOU- have you like, ever, talked to another human being? If you did, did you manage to have a conversation that was over in few seconds? Before I lost interest, it was mind blowing how many times there were meaningless "monologues". I say monologue because it felt to me like I was watching Broadway show. If somebody engages a talk with me, don't get me wrong, and starts throwing me into despair with boring talk- I'd just leave without any word said. Why is that? Because time is of the essence!

Are you serious? Are you serious now?! No, I understand perfectly when people say that the update is short, that I have been doing it for too long, that there is no sex content in it. This is all adequate criticism. But fuck to the length of the dialogs? Once again, are you serious ?!
I cut the maximum out of the text. I write a dialogue for two days, and then work for weeks, so that it is read much easier and faster, so that there are no repetitions of the same thoughts. And if you don’t like to read dialogs and understand the plot, why play visual novels at all? Watch porn.
And yes, in other games the dialogs are longer, much longer. And they repeat each other, time after time. But if you give me an example of a game where they reveal complex stories in a couple of sentences, then I will definitely take an example from them and I will be very very grateful to you.

ok, so far an realy awesome game, just the story is a bit messy, and mixed up, hard to follow...looks like that the devs lost the line almost every 15 sec ...maybe its me, but the story so far dosent even make any sense ,...or maybe i dont get it^^ can be^^

there is none at all, the deluca family is the only one that come close to it.
Btw i loved the update, dont waste time in people that dont know what they are talking about bro.

My only remaining question is what the fickety fuck is fuckening in this game?

I don't really understand what's happening. But it's interesting and sexy.

What happend....reading the comments I'm not the only one...such a shame...but for now will skip a few updates, sorry

Trying to figure out if everyone on that island is insane or some just forgot to use the supernatural/ superpower tag there .
Because this game got messy for me very quickly. I like it, but just got all over the place to fast.

OK, what don’t you understand? I really don’t really understand what the difficulty was here. None of you have indicated what exactly is not clear to you. Most of the people with whom I thoroughly discussed this update understood everything perfectly. So I need to know what your problem is. So next time not to make a mistake. If there was any mistake.

Are there animations or its just picture slides?

Unfortunately, so far only slides. The budget is not enough for the animation.

Tbh I don't care how long you take with making this game or how much content there is each update, but since updates take quite a long time to come out it's possible that information that makes what's going on very obvious has been said 3 updates ago or something, which was half a year ago and people just don't remember it, and since it's more of a kinetic novel with little to no choice involved it's not exactly very replayable, meaning people aren't compelled to go through it from the start multiple times, ergo people just forget what's going on.

Perhaps, but if it is not, if there are any problems with the narration, then I need to know.
Well, or you need to release updates as early as possible.

Well, the developer mentioned that he was partly inspired by Dreams of Desire, just honestly, let's admit that there is no plot. and here he is good and you know, I really hope to see the father of the MC in the frame (I think that there is incest in the game because the girls and Mikhail have one father) and you know who I think is the father of the MC God Nergal, google who and what he is represented. And as I think he knows about his son and wants to save him from the hands of Iannana and he does not care about Katya and Alice and Maria. And you know that it offends me that VN VISIT has a storyline of zero and character models fired from the same DoD that has good support and this masterpiece is not there. I wish PixelsLab to achieve maximum support all the same. And yes, this game is better than the same badik.

IMHO it is a mess. I wont be watching in the future.

Given how popular incest content is around here, it would make a lot more sense to make Utu / Shamash the father. Just saying.

Absolutely adequate reaction if you do not like the game.

If you read the "overview" in the OP, and the tags.... tbh the game comes more across like something along a "LOST'ish, "The Island", or even the the dud "I Land". Sort of thing. Insulting people for thinking things start get a bit to "far fetched" from the point of origin seems a bit unreasonable.

I think that's pretty fair in some ways, and for certain, nobody knew what the heck was going on in "Lost", which was incredibly far-fetched and well into the "must be magic/supernatural" territory.

(Personally I stopped watching Lost when it became clear they were milking it, with the plot being written to keep the episodes and cash rolling, rather than push towards a conclusion for the story and mysteries).

As for insult, I was being polite! I politely left out how obviously the MC is spending time talking to people who are not there, that he knows are not there, but being completely unphased and matter-of-fact about it. And I used the word peepee rather than something more vulgar.

I understand Inana is some sort of godess. Apparently she made MCs mom? Who in turn seems to have godlike powers. So does MC, but he doesn't seem to understand what or who he is. Marie and her daughters seem to be just human. Although the little one seems to have some supernatural capabilities too, no idea how. Does it have to do with Inana or MC's mom? And is that why Marie says she doesn't love her? Inana seems like she wants MC for something, to be her warrior. But she also seems to be looking to find a "priestess" for him? Or for herself? Also MC's girlfriend doesn't seem to be human.

I've read a few posts by others. But as far as I can tell they are also just trying to guess what everything means.

It's not really a problem. As I said it's interesting. I guess I just need to play a few more episodes to understand what's going on.

Ah, I get it! Your problem is not with history, but with how little information you have now. OK. This is normal. The next update will answer some of them. In general, I will try to answer all questions during the game. I promise.

Was more thinking about the brain cells thing... But now that you mention you it "peepee" thing make you sound condescending, kinda... lol.

But still, tags and possible a overview in the op that maybe reflect/hint better at the actual story, might be worth consider.

People not read text and dialogues and just skip ahead for naughty bits, have themselves to blame, regardless of what kind of game it is though.

 

[zielony2]

Pixelslab its really funny to observe flaming frustrats when most of update is not concentrated on cylinder and piston working. No fuck, no fun... This is so repitable...
My proposal is having this kids, you know where...

 

[Arassei]

Perhaps, but if it is not, if there are any problems with the narration, then I need to know.

Hello,
Maybe a problem is the time. I don't know, but in my case, I forgot some things before. When you don't understand something, you forget it rather quicly. But if this something is important for a futur update, you're lost when it comes.
Your story sails between differents timelines and we can't remember all the things each time.

If I understood, Eve "sold" (or gave) her son (the MC) to Innana ?

 

[rockthehell]

Good game, but why bother with putting choices if they don't matter? Win or loose ping-pong game, be a dick or don't, doesn't meter, narrative wont change. I'm not criticizing, I don't mind straight up narrative, I just wondering why waste your time to put in choices that don't matter

Good point.
