Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.8c] [Ron Chon]

[deadmasterx]

While I understand that it's realistic, in practice having the girlfriend milestone lock you out of a number of actions and activities all 3 girls were already perfectly ok with just moments before didn't feel very fun. Especially since the girlfriend talk will likely come up during season 2 and you can't "fix" the problem until you grind enough trust in season 3 I ended up feeling like the choice to make someone your girlfriend was a progression mistake instead of the fun relationship milestone it should be.

But isn't that what real relationships are like? Or do you think that if you manage to get a girlfriend tomorrow she will just absorb the idea of you being with two other hot girls in the same relationship so quickly? That's exactly what the game is about. The fact that you can stay "single" and date all these girls with "no consequence" (more like keeping them waiting until you make a choice or not) or date someone, and then, maybe eventually, get to make this one trust the other girls so you can date them as well. It's very realistic, if you ask me. If anything, I'd support even more punitive systems, to make it as realistic as possible.

You Have a point My Friend
This makes relationships more alive and natural
Of course, this new system left me wondering what future interactions with the girls that will be added will be like and what kind of scenario this will generate.
Like Jean and Emma, everyone knows that they both don't like each other

I gotta say, I'm not sure I'm into the idea that it looks like I've hit first, second and third base on the Second Date with Rogue... In the first season (Fall)... Like... Wow...

Is this to make up for the fact that Poly is delayed till Season 3 at minimum?

 

[JustCallMeSteve]

Although i have not played 4.whatever yet, so i don't know what differences the newly implemented systems make, and what are bugs and what aren't, but to me it makes some amount of sense that Rogue of all people would be more willing to jump into more physical shenanigans with Null.

 

[frepyou]

is there more levels xp wise i got to level 5 but not able to get more pts not cheating
this was when i was playing last ver not the current 4a is it changed or bugged

My cheat doesn't break player level caps. But answer your question, not really:

define max_level = [5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30]

label level_up:
    if Player.level < max_level[chapter - 1] and Player.XP >= Player.XP_goal:

The game is still on chapter 1 so the max level is still 5.

just a quick question for devs. when will we see new characters? will it be in 0.5 or after that?

 

[SolSpell]

If you enter a relationship with Mystique, will Nightcrawler have to call both of you dad?

I won't do that to my blue bro. guy has been a cool dude for years and I'm not gonna mess with his head

I've been assuming that Chapter 2 (when the new girls will arrive) is a year away. Just based on the Roadmap in the Patreon.

I don't like to assume things which is why I was asking. I'd like to see chapter 2 at some point within the next few months so I can see Null grow from that "wtf is with this crazy college professor?" to "okay so some giant guy, some giant robots, and some rednecks tried to kill me but meh"

I'm just keeping my expectations low. I don't expect the updates to consistently arrive every couple of weeks, especially since they've mentioned that Art is their biggest bottleneck. Plus, given that September is the date for 6.0 (Sex poses are completely updated? For the Chapter 1 Trio). I'm not holding my breath for Storm to become romanceable this year. They're focused on setting up the game and the system before they're going to add any new girls.

I know a lot of people would be frustrated with this knowledge but it's true.

We want the game part to be properly established rather than leaving it unfinished and coming back to a mess later on.

The effort we put into the presentation makes people think we're a lot further in development than we actually are.

I believe Ron did make it easier to proceed sexually as a way to compensate for the increased difficulty in the relationships, and removed or reduced most of the relationship level requirements for sexual activity.
I tried to actually find a statement from him on that on Discord, but I couldn't, so... don't take this as anything more than something I *think* is true.

which is why I asked to begin with. I didn't wanna assume new girls would be coming within the next few updates and just wanted a confirmation

It sucks but honestly, it's better than waiting months for bug fixes instead of like content.

Big if true

Guys, I have a question, how could I check the level of relationship with girl, I mean where it is, in the phone or something. And in the app on the phone, I see that there are 4 icons such as sad, angry, etc for each girl. So how could I unlock all of it. Is it permanent or just temporary?
