Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.7b] [Ron Chon]
- Thread starter ronchonbon
- Start date
Enough time for us to not need to deal with Heroes Reborn.
The game is in alpha and we're already talking about sequels
This.
Maddeninggg would riot if we didn't.
When we finish this game we're going to evaluate whether or not we want to take a break from the Marvel setting.
We have many stories we want to adapt and tell but there are also many other settings we have interest in.
No.
I mean... some Avengers may make an appearance...
I put forth the idea of an original character akin to Null for all the major teams happening concurrently. The problem is that the X-Men are really the only team to focus on its members in a way that helps our preferred method of storytelling.
The Avengers rotates members so often that we couldn't really tell a long-form story and like we can with other teams.
SHIELD has plenty of human characters but it's just 6 different women in identical catsuits.
The Guardians of the Galaxy have some babes and they encounter plenty of other Aliens but they have the least name recognition and their existence was rewritten like 6 times.
The Thunderbolts don't become a thing until Civil War.
Alpha Flight is just Canada and is mostly treated like side characters to the X-Men.
The Inhumans... exist.
The last time the words "Avengers expansion DLC" were put together, we got a mid Black Panther update in a different game, so I kinda don't wanna summon the angry gods that cursed Square Enix to... exist, basically.
In regards to the Avengers, I mean... I'm sure something can be came up with.
And you have the guardians and the Thunderbolts mixed up, the guardians as we know them, a.k.a the Star-Lord team with Gamora and Drax, came together after Civil War (after Annihilation Conquest actually, but that was after Civil War). The Thunderbolts started exactly after Onslaught because the main avengers were stuck in the Heroes Reborn era, so Citizen V reunited a bunch of like minded people to take their place (I can say the spoilers but hey, who knows if you guys wanna use them and I don't wanna start ruining surprises to people... yet).

I love this thread. no matter how off track we get, we always come back and make peace with each other. unless you chose Iron Man's side in Civil War. dude was wrong lol
The writing is decent, at least compared to the other game ( Rogue-like) however the mc is too much of a Gary-stu. It gets boring after a while. Almost from the get go everybody is kissing his ass.
The writer obviously has a good grasp at writing, so I wonder what why he did not write a compelling story with some real challenges thrown at the mc.
I hate NTR but how fun would it have been to have Scott be a real competitor for Jeans affection?
Feel like the dev is just going the path of least resistance. Other males may well be nonexistent in the game. Prof. X is really almost a non entity outside of giving you jobs (on that note, how does he use telepathy on you if you are immune to mutant powers?) and Kurt is just a plot device and expozition dump. Piotr only shows up in one scene and Scott and Logan are only shown to exist in a somewhat humorous Convo on the phone
There is no real conflict or stakes, just a grind to earn enough love and trust points to unlock new scenes.

I get it, again let's say a storyline line where Jean and Scott split up shortly before you arrive, due to Scott cheating on Jean with Emma Frost( a storyline from the comics).
You try to get with Jean, who has issues after her long time boyfriend cheated on her, and Scott hates you because he wants Jean back and sees you as an obstacle. You have drama, you have conflict, hell you could even end on a redemption arc for Scott where he eventually asks forgiveness from her and gives his blessing to your relationship.
Cliche? Absolutely, but at least it is something. What do we get instead? Some weird incest play? Yeah like there aren't enough incest games on this site.
And for clarification I am proudly part of perhaps one of the most annoying groups on this site, barring NTR addicts. I am a lifelong IIA( is it avoidable?).

I think this is only the second time I've seen someone in this thread argue it should be harder to romance the girls.
It sounds like you just don't find a plot interesting unless there's cheating or love triangles.
All the girls have challenges and issues that you help them with, and the MC gets into trouble regularly.
The story is to me a high point of the game, a LOT more ambitious and serious than any other game I've found on this site.
It's early in development and they're understandably not very high on the priority list. More guys will come and you will be able to do stuff with them, but they won't be going after your girls (good thing, very based).
I find this a surprising complaint when I was amazed the game even had men at all.

Considering there are people on this site who think it is NTR if there is another straight male in the game at all (even if they don't get involved with any of the girls, and Odin forbid they are in a relationship with a girl who isn't even a potential LI for the MC), even doing this is probably going to upset some people.
As several people have noted many times in the past, for many, many things, you cannot please everyone, it is foolish to even try. Make what you like, and others will probably like it too. Some people won't, but that's just the way it is.
If he was an actual Gary Stu, there wouldn't be an infirmary where you are sent to every story event. About everyone kissing his ass, let's see: Xavier is like that with every young mutant as his role of older kind mentor, Rogue does kiss his ass because he is the only person she can actually interact with, Laura straight up kicks his ass for most of the first season and only starts coming around near the end, Jean is a neurotic with a desire for anyone to like her that tries to win over the one guy who doesn't have a negative impression of her, Storm is legit just being nice.
Challenges like getting his ass handed to him by Juggernaut and Sentinels? Or what kind of challenges are you thinking of?
No, it would not be fun.
Maybe because the game is very early in development and they decided to focus on the girls first and then start introducing the rest of the team? Content with Kurt is coming and Colossus is gonna be bro-able in chapter 2, maybe even starting a friendship at the end of the first summer, Scott and Logan are referenced many times and will probably come with Colossus, shit Logan even has a line of dialogue.
Maybe because this is an introduction to the world so the story is just starting? My sibling in Christ, the game is in a very pretty alpha, patience is the name of the game.
the only thing null wins at is joging/running against anna lol

Speaking of which, when are we getting a cg for running behind her?
Or sexy events in general, seems all of them right now are of the girls being stressed/sad
ohhhh it being animated with the tightsSpeaking of which, when are we getting a cg for running behind her?

My word we NEED that backview. More games need backviews. Can't go talking about Rogue's booty and not flaunt it. Need to have Jean and Laura back shots so we can compare cheeks (and drool over Laura's back musclesSpeaking of which, when are we getting a cg for running behind her?
