Ren'Py The Null Hypothesis [v0.8b1] [Ron Chon]

[freddygonzo]

Yeah, sorry that I haven't followed the last 19k posts here since 40 years or what.
Actually, I hadn't even watched the Evolution show before playing RL:E. I caught up on that and was rather disappointed about the game differences then.
X-comics, yeah, slap me again! Coming mainly from the movies and shows.

Anyway, there are enough new players here who don't even bother to read one page back, so mercy upon our unenlightened souls.

Sure. There are things from multiple sources in this. Comics, TV, the music is inspired from the 90s animated, and lots of stuff for the casual observer so it's not a comic elitist game.

And don't worry, FP00 and others only mentioned the narrative arcs that inspire the current part of the game and the characters who might appear based on that. Didn't really get too specific on comic plot so not much spoiled. And it would play different than what's in game anyway.

While it might be cool to meet familiar characters, I'm always more fascinated by newly invented stories.
Chapter 1 hasn't been bad so far, although might be difficult to comprehend who these villains and allies are without more introductions if someone actually has zero Marvel experience. The story surely demands pre-knowledge for better experience.
I only hope the story gets a bit more dense with longer plots than only short villain appearances like Juggy and the Sentinels. The game's main part is surely the sandbox one as playground where you can't really tell much stories besides the character ones. The character stories tied to quest events have been done very well so far telling more about the past and feelings. These alone are the reason for me to play.

...I'm just here for Rogue's ass.

Totally fine, but I’m still no that impressed by the sex part no matter how it got graphically changed. If still feels too mechanically going through all the options for the sake of earning more point rewards. As you can easily max out the stats of each girl without hooking up anyway, I guess this should be ignored for a better experience (after you got that silly x10 A+ achievement).
Do it as you like, and not how the game asks for it!

I wouldnt mind seeing Scarlet Witch just off info i read bout her and Midnight Suns...

Unfortunately, Scarlet Witch is an Avenger and didn't really get involved with Claremont era X-Men.

Her sister Polaris is more likely to show up.

Come to think of it, can Jean get a retcon so that Scott actually got to smash and that we're guy number two?

No, trust me, the current iteration with her being highly neurotic isnt far from the truth, the ammount of time it took for Scott to smash that in the comics went beyond a decade.

Don't think they would be willing, either way is fine by me.
Jean's excuse in the game to still be a virgin is serviceble, I can buy that.

There is a very good reason for why they didn't smash in our universe. It will be explained in coming updates.

Im pretty sure Boots implied he ended up with Maddie.

Implied? He is getting Maddie.

You get 72 Dusts.

Dust comes with... too much baggage.

No way dude, we need Cable to happen, Scott has to bone madelyne.

Yes.

Does he need to exist in this one too?

Yes.

Madelyne's Goblin Queen outift did things to me man...

I think maybe we could get a Halloween costume for Jean of the Goblin Queen?

This is pretty much the idea. Kinky roleplay.

Wanda is out, as she never going the X-men.

Never say never.

Mystique will never be a love interest as that is just too fucked up a situation, as well as the fact that it's heavily implied that she mentally abused Rogue when she was her foster mother.

Mystique has been shelved for now. She won't even be appearing for quite some time so we just don't have any urgency in thinking about her as an option.

Madelyne Pryor won't be a love interest due to how creepy that would be for Null to be having a relationship with Jean and her clone.

This is part of it. Faux-incest is one thing, but to answer the age old question, yes fucking your clone would be incest. Especially when they have distinct personalities.

Illyana is kinda up in the air because of her sudden aging. She's there one moment, a young girl, disappears for a moment and is now an adult, with no socialising with any other humans for nearly a decade, no matter how you look at it, it's sketchy.

We have no plans on showing a young Illyana in the sandbox and Null will never interact with her directly.

- Polaris
- Betsy Braddock (probably in her original English lady form)
- Jubilee
- Dani Moonstar
- Magma
- Wolfsbane
- Siryn

All on the list of possible inclusions.

- Marrow, possibly, but it would tie in with a potential Morlock Massacre chapter.

She has the same thing with Magik. Pocket dimension that aged her.

Kitty and Illyana could become another Best Friends pair then, like Laura and Anna, although not introduced within the same chapter.

Well considering their comic relations at times and depending on what the devs do...maybe really good friends.

Their writer shipped them HARD so if Magik does make it in, they'd have a unique dynamic.

You know, until I totally leave him at the altar and crush his heart. But forget all that, we should be besties!"

Reminder that Magik is the one who put the doubt in Kitty's mind to begin with.

there is already info about 3-5?

A little bit. We'll be following most plot beats. Skipping over the Brood.

Mutant Massacre is something we plan on showing.

the music is inspired from the 90s animated

Our music guy specifically was instructed to go off of the 90s show combined with the live action film.

Yeah sometimes it was written subtle and other times not so much.

I'm really curious on how this will play out

please make it in.

Mutant Massacre

The what

 

[Ruoken]

Yeah they really weren't trying to hide it with this one

 

[freddygonzo]

"Is lesbian content eventually being added?"
Yes.

Now I'm curious: will unique dynamics also involve playing with each other like shown here?
Will this maybe only be possible/reserved between Best Friends or always possible between polyamorous partners?
I don't mind at all and appreciate more interactivity between girls, but some most likely will mind: can you prevent this by talking to the girls about this ahead or will there be a gameplay option to disable such content?

He doesn't know It's the uh... mutant sports tournament! Yeah... X-Men only deals in happy stuff. Nothing bad happens. Especially not to less powerful mutants.

My rule of thumb is always to let them-

good lord my knowledge is mainly from Evolution the 90s cartoon 97' and some bits from the movies i can hardly remember I only watch the first 3 as a kid. But I'm guessing this is something different from Genosha

My words as well, but you know from other game topics how these homophobic/ntr debates can go overlengthy massacre-style. Don't want to see this here as well.

F95 will do what it does. Boots I think knows how ridiculous things can be here sometimes. Doubt ron will cave and wreck his game just because of an angry tirade of review bombers who don't like lesbian content. Some games come out on the other side of that just fine after all.

Yes it is.

Yes it is.

I'm not ready luckily it won't be for a while

As long as we won't get see Jean asking Kurt for easier access, I'm not too worried about an upcoming shitstorm.
