Ren'Py Completed TP: The Class Next Door [v0.12.1] [9thCrux]

[Exdeath92]

Well, at least this isn't as bad as Dual Family. Now that game is utter trash

A whole game of clicking... that's pretty much it. Pity, the characters are decent, the story could be decent. But when you have to click about 70 times to get from one scene to the next, whats the point?

Wow I used to really like this game even though it was a very very slow burn we were eventually getting somewhere. This redesign or whatever you want to call it is just awful. While I didn't encounter any bugs there is now way to tell what to do, how to progress, when you hit the end of the content for a character or who you need to work on next. On top of that is all of the clicking around which is just painful, let alone the fact that you have to hit direct on the gear. The circle in the middle of the gear isn't even good enough. I'm gonna drop this and see where it is in another couple of years

yall doing it wrong!
what you should do are: extract the game and start searching the best scenes in images folder for fapping.

with that, youll free yourself from slow burn (earlier version) >> slug burn (recent version changed to sandbox) >> free roam

thats the reason why dev still getting paid: 3cgs images & vids of multiracial girls, not the game itself!

Since the last version became a sandbox game, playing it has stopped being fun and has become a painful affair with lots of pointless repetitive and meaningless clicking, as much as possible most players are against the sandbox and demand a return to visual novels, but the developers are so arrogant and stubborn that they refuse to listen to any of it, well, I'm just going to have to give up!

QLoad worked for me. Of course it only shows up when you did a QSave first. But the "Back" option not working is a "feature", the game has deactivated the roll back function

.... i don't where to click on at beginning of game .....

you need to click on the top right corner "X".
AFter that, confirm by clicking on "YES"
Then navigateto the folder named "TCNDEX-0.8.1-pc", rightclick, delete

That's it. It will solve your problem in the most effective and very best way possible

of course it is deactivated.
What did you think?
If you want to maximal annoy players by senseless grind, you need to prevent him from rollback to "un-do" wrong clicks and force him to grind even more (like skipping a whoile week just until the next "saturday afternoon" is there.

You shouldn't worry about that, same as you shouldn't care about this crap game at all.

well the sand box feature turned this game in absolute shit...waste of time

waste of dreams TAG

 

[HolyLife666]

This is what I’m referring to about this game. You missed a hidden item during a free roam, so you have to load an old save, and do it all over again and hunt pixel by pixel to find the hidden item that will let you progress…isn’t that great!!

The fuck? If this is not some kind of a dumb joke, where the hell this item is?

 

[MrDL]

I can't believe it's been almost three years since this attempt at riding the coattails of what was a much more popular game came out. I have to respect that it's still going.

Well, let me jump onto this bandwagon for a sec.

I don't think people has mentioned this yet but the freeroam itself is extremely poorly implemented. I don't hate free roam as a concept, and there are some games taht do it well. But this one..... the mini map makes little sense. It seems to be the same map but it changes if you go upstairs or downstairs?

The arrows are transparent and hard to see, also moves all over the place, making it an annoyance to move around and backpedal because you over clicked.

I really find it odd taht it almost seems like it was a concerted effort to make it bad and unweildly.

This was actually one of the most mentioned thing in the posts since the change to sandbox...

Anyway, for those still want to play that thing the patch for the disabled rollback was updated here

Was it? Well, I probably missed it as I think the game was crashing back then so i put the game on a backburner and have not kept up with it. Of course... only to find it in it's current state. Which is arguably worse.

Not really. If all people wanted was the renders, there'd be no point in the game at all- just post a link to a big image folder. Players want sex scenes that take place in the context of a narrative that drives them to care about the characters involved (and maybe feel a little sense of accomplishment). And, typically, they want those encounters to have an actual impact on the characters and the world they inhabit. When the sex scene is delivered as a dream, all that goes away; by default a dream needs no narrative and has no consequences (though of course a good writer can change that). So the player is left with some nice renders, no reason to care about them, and the sneaking suspicion that the dev stuffed the dream scene in there to placate him while the story spins its wheels.

Oh, come on, it's porn. If you had a porn scene that ended with a swirly fade out to a sleeping guy or girl who stirs and says "It was all a dream", it was still porn.

As for the narrative, if you go through the thread, people are panning the story as it's happening. There were some highlights and the dev made some good plot points, but it all fell apart by making it a sandbox game.

Dev should consider remaking the game from the ground up. Remove sandbox, streamline the plot and refine some story elements a bit. Speed up the intimacy parts a bit to maintain the slow burn aspect but not make it a purgatory of waiting. Just start fresh, new game, update the assets a bit since im sure hes learned a lot since he first started this game. Drop a big V1 release and and not lock himself to low reviews. Even if he changed things now, hes got nearly 100 reviews of criticisms and if he were to fix the game completely, almost no one would revise their rating.

Not exactly remaking. He announced it would be a sandbox, then started with a basic VN. Once the basic VN was done, he added navigation to give an idea what the game will feel like after it goes to sandbox. Then the game went ahead and people actually enjoyed the VN and most patrons were negative on the sandbox changes. But just getting back to the original VN would fix the biggest issue with the game and allow to shift the focus back to the story.

I'm thinking it's hard or impossible to mix a visual novel with a sandbox game. At best, the sandbox will simply enable or disable some paths and some events will be necessary to progress the game. But it will always feel like a dating sim. At worst, the two pieces of the game will get into each other's way. And that's what's happening here.
