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

[ShinyBoots1993]

It is funny to see people failing to get that achievement though, for you to get ANYWHERE with a girl on the sheets, you have to agree to be on a relationship, why people act surprised when your girlfriend is mad if you cheat on her, its beyond me.

I can't even put it up to entitlement.

RLE has the girls get mad at you and refuse to talk to you if you cheat before mindbreaking them.

Even if we consider every other harem game on the website, the girls usually have to be influenced in some way to be comfortable with you sleeping around. Be it by mind control, literal magic, or like in TNH, getting their trust.

So even if another game doesn't punish you for cheating for say because it's a kinetic novel, it at least presents that something had been done to make people okay with sharing.

They outright kick your ass, i had Kitty manhandle me once because i was trying to deal with her like i do with bitchtits.

So, Boots, are we planning to leave the Institute in the future? cough cough I mean, the Brotherhood.

That would be cool for a spin-off/gaiden (since we are taking the cues from Persona).
TNH but you got picked by the Brotherhood instead of the X-men, there we could get all the Wanda we want.

Oh shit, i see that unlike Zero, our boy Null doesnt have the super power to be unnafected by child support.

Child support finally caught up to him, so he crossed into another universe. That's the official reason why Null exists Zero is your dad, and he’s with your mom

I can't see how a girl being submissive to you is possibly a red flag.

Okay, to put it this way, a relationship should be 50/50, it's an equal partnership. Whatever decisions are made should be made together. Rogue giving Null complete control puts all the stress and responsibility on him, making it an inherently unbalanced relationship, and while it hasn't happened yet, it's a breeding ground for resentment for both of them. We just haven't seen it play out yet because it's still early days.

I believe I have a possible solution for this:

You must be registered to see the links

integration.

Now, I do not own any of their products, so I'm only aware of their capabilities at a glance. But, if you could make it so, when the player is caught cheating, that someone's flesh light or butt plug is at the maximum vibration setting for an extended of time, or, have them not vibrate at all until they make up with who they cheated on, so that there's a physical repercussion for their decision making, instead of it just being though text. 'Cause let's be real: Some men don't learn until they get kicked in the nuts, or they're left walking home with blue balls.

what red flags do these girls have?

First of all they have no dick
They are mutants

I'm going to say something about their quirks for anyone talking about them and this is solely my opinion so keep that in mind. while these quirks might seem harmless in the short term, in the long term, they could damage the girl's mental stability. for example, Rogue. she wants to be submissive to you and while it might be fun for a bit, eventually it moves on to her asking you to make simple choices for her to escape the responsibility. like she asks what shirt she should wear. while it might seem okay to tell her once or twice, doing it most of the time makes it harder for her to grow as a person and take charge of her life

 

[Casted420]

Laura: Stalker with violent tendencies.
Jean: Overly controlling and copes with her stress by initiating a fetish before fully discussing it.
Rogue: Becomes extremely dependent on you to the point where she feels like she doesn't have to make any hard decisions anymore.

Best quote from Boots that I'm willing to find that should explain that the quirks won't go that far:

No more than you would in accepting quirks.

With the rework we've separated Rogue's submissiveness into how she is in bed and how she is in your relationship.

I believe selecting the option in the provided example would make her more submissive in the relationship.

BUT TO BE 100% CLEAR FOR EVERYONE HAPPENING TO READ THIS.

Quirks do not add or subtract content.

They change the tone of content.

Example. A dangerous fight is coming up?

Normal Jean: As your senior I'll support you!

Big Sis Jean: As your big sis I'll protect you!

Normal Rogue: I got your back sugah.

Submissive Rogue: You'll stop the bad guys right? (Playful in tone)

Normal X-23: Remember your training and we can succeed.

Yandere X-23: I will make them regret being born if they even look at you!

Edit: The writers will obviously present this in a more narrative compelling way.

Also, no 'corruption' tag.

That quote in no way implies that it won't go that far.

The writers have many compelling narratives to show you.

Also, no 'corruption' tag.

You're not really corrupting them. You're just enabling unhealthy coping mechanisms.

My friends telling me to download waifu gatcha games isn't them corrupting me, it's them enabling my gambling addiction lol

Do not fall into the temptation. I did...I now play Nikke...and dios mio...kinda enjoy it, At least the music is pretty fucking hype.

I don't think Dark Phoenix arc is even possible without it going that far

[SeveralGeese]

I'm very eager to see the phoenix arc hit. You've depicted Jean in a very interesting way, basically being on the verge of a nervous breakdown for a whole ass year (assuming she hasnt already hit her nervous breakdown). Probably the story beat I'm most aware of and interested in seeing, as someone only faintly familiar with xmen lore.

I can't see how a girl being submissive to you is possibly a red flag.

I'll be honest. Rogue's submissiveness is the only quirk I dislike/see as a red flag. Even falling under the lie of "these are sexy time benefits", it's always made me uncomfortable. But my position on things like these isn't to deny them, but explore them and deal with them in a healthy way.

So here's to hoping that that will be possible in the game eventually.

Addendum: When I say "red flag" I don't mean a "don't be with this girl, she's bad news" red flag. I mean "This is not a healthy thing for the person." red flag.

 

[ShinyBoots1993]

But my position on things like these isn't to deny them, but explore them and deal with them in a healthy way.

The quirk system will never be a one and done thing. You've seen the code, it's weighted.

We most definitely have plans for exploring how embracing a quirk may affect their life. Both for the positive and the negative.

The quirk revamp actually inspired us to want to explore even further. It's not just you customizing your player experience. What and how you enable will come up again and isn't just a switch to flip the tone future scenes are treated with.
