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

[Wajean]

Will the future chapters progress through relationship goals as well? I get it makes sense for Null to absorb power bits from Rogue, Laura and Jean for the sake of gaining a quick, strong basis in combat and become relevant in high caliber threats. But beyond that, and in the spirit of the game not being explicitly designed to magnetize all dem hoes around you, it'd be nice if ya boy N can catch a break from being the cafeteria psychologist and be allowed to have more distant, or even somewhat bad relationships with certain gals.

My best bet for chapter 3 are Emma, Magik, Wolfsbane

 

[Hazeti]

With that news, I may use the "everyone" path as an exploratory save to find out which dynamics with Null I like more than others to make my "main" save after. I already have a couple from what's known I rank lower than others which I won't say just to maintain the current tranquility.

For Monogamy saves I've done Jean and Rogue already.

For combos maybe I can try something like Jean, Emma, Dazzler, and Rogue or something...seems totally safe and fun.

Gotta do the EVO combo of Rogue and Kitty of course.

Best combo to try for the lolz Jean and Emma lol and the best part they can't mind fuck Null when they get angry

Shinny did confirm that you can put a ring on it towards endgame.

quick question, so i saw that there are some "stay abc til end of chapter" & some hidden achievement. Is it possible to get all achievement or are there some clashing one?

I have achieved 73/75 achievements.


Bronze V Card - Remain Celibate Throughout Chapter 1
Xavier's List - Maintain a 4.0 GPA for an Entire Chapter

These two are the only ones I haven't been able to achieve, which I believe is due to Chapter 1 technically not ending.

 

[Ruoken]

God, can you imagine the utter disaster that would ensue if Null was dating these 2 at once?

My dream would become a reality if she makes it in, I hope she's muscular like Laura is I want my muscles gremlins.

Understandable, muscular women are peak.

There will be story content only seen or mentioned in monogamous runs or specific combinations. So you're not getting all of the content if you choose all.

No word on "most" though. Way too early in the project to know if the writers would be psychotic enough to surpass TellTale.

I'm probably in the minority here and my opinion means little-to-nothing, but I'd really appreciate it if the full poly route was as complete as possible. I have no interest in mono routes, and I'd be majorly bummed out if too much meaningful content or characterization was locked behind them. Stuff like terminally thirsty friendzone Jean is fine- I regret that I don't get to experience it because it sounds hilarious, but I still feel like I get a full, rich story for her (so far) as part of the harem/polycule/whatever it's technically called.

The thing is that dating 15+ girls ain't gonna be easy. We're not going to make it easy. Primarily because the people who'd want all 15 girls are in the minority. At least going by data I've collected

Since the poll is showing a majority choosing the fully poly routes, will this be looked at being adjusted since the primary reason was because of the previous thinking that they were in the minority?

I'm kinda shocked since reading these forums I was under the impression that I was in the minority.

Don't share the beta builds please, they even ask that on the discord. It is a WIP and usually buggy. Just today they updated to beta11 and then beta12 a few hours later from fixing bugs. Of course if you are willing to QC the game and report bugs as you find them so they get fixed, that is welcomed.

As a poly player, I don't mind extra content for mono play at all. Though I will probably do extra playthroughs for some of the mono paths.

 

[Karmadive]

As a player who really enjoys games that give me choices. I always know that it comes at the cost of missing certain content if the choices are to be meaningful. But I always want my choice to be just as meaningful as every other persons choice.

Honestly time will tell if they fulfill these things, but everything so far that I have read and played give me confidence that they will do just that. They are one of the rare developers currently making a very high quality game and active open communication with their players.

Dont you think youre being extremely damn selfish?
You dont see the players that want monogamous content bitching that they should get the events and hijinks of having a mutant harem into their monogamous routes.

I may be interpreting his post wrong but what I got from it was that he just wanted a full rich story experience the same as the monogamous route. From comments like this.

Precisely, at the end of the day if I feel as though I've missed something I'm going to just play the game again and try something different. I trust the dev and writing team wholeheartedly, I don't believe they'll leave any one of us lacking in terms of content. It only makes for a better game if there are mutiple branching routes that your decisions affect, and people aren't going to get that by focusing on one route alone.
