VN Ren'Py Turning the Page [v0.31.0] [Azienda]

So you don't care about NTR but looking for drama. Why not start with that?
Your first post opened with " What ive found is that what a lot NTR games lack is drama" which implies you played a lot of NTR games and one would assume you are NTR fan. If you are not a fan than I don't really find it surprising that you don't find the sneaky sex scenes exciting.



Where is the drama here? You want drama ? How about MC starts having feelings for Amy but than it turns out she is pregnant with Zachs kid?

Yeah NTR for me is a tool for tension/drama in the story i dont really find it all that hot.....netori(especially revenge netori like "Due To My New Situation, I Have To Corrupt My Friends Harem") on the other hand ....Im not a regular enjoyer of the tag but ive played enough games with the NTR tag over the years to have this opinion.

Difference between netori and netorare is like between kicking someone in the balls and getting kicked in the balls. I don’t wanna dig deeper but know that the netorare tag is overused to say the least.

Yeah I noticed the kneejerk need to go at me for a criticism of this genre.

Genre? I don’t think anyone likes essential parts of their kink criticized. Netorare is complex kink and people enjoy it in different ways. Sneaky sex scenes while the hubby stays oblivious is what significant part of audience finds exciting. But there is another part for example that will want the hubby to be watching and powerless to stop it. So when someone criticizes “I'm bored of the sneaky sex scenes” it can be hard to tell if they have different angle on netorare or they just don’t enjoy it to begin with. Having a go here was attempt which one of those you were. Whatever some people like it or not I have pretty good understanding of netorare and It was obvious to me that you are not trying to empower the kink. Kudos for admitting to not being primary audience, many don’t.

I said I want drama. This is my personal preference. NTR stories have so much potential for drama and its so often ignored. Im pretty neutral on NTR i only rarely dabble though i prefer the woman perspective like this game has since watching a girl fall to corruption is more my speed than "The Oblivious Adventures of Cuckleberry Finn". But yeah I dont deal in this genre enough to have the examples in fact my gripe with the genre is that the very thing what i want from an NTR story is very rare. Closest thing i can give as an example is "Dont Leave My Side" I liked how raw the emotions are and how fucked up the main cast are its ripe for the drama I want though the style/renders are a bit meh. Im not really here to argue the deeper intricacies of NTR and why ppl like it so i guess its best to say i only like an extremely niche part of an already niche genre.

You should try Hero Party Must Fall, it has Excellent drama, the female characters are written incredibly well for a visual novel, let alone a porn game.

Could someone upload the apk update please?

 

[RippedKegels]

has there been any indication when and how much this (presumably non-Zack love) route will be developed? it's been like this for three updates now i think?

You might be cookin rn this seems promising.

The answer is simple:

Turning the Page will have each route completed one at a time.

[...]

To complete everything at the same time, we would have to do a single update in about 10 months with all the choices and all the endings completed, an update containing 30+ CGs and something like 450k words or more.

Sophie needs to bang Nate or Jonah too, it's getting boring seeing her with the same guy now.

 

[Yambidexter]

I only played Felix POV since Zack fucks Sophie for the first time, but I glance at her scences in gallery each update. I can relate to people that got somewhat bored - in comparison with NTR Homestay or other good game that is published when it's ready, i.e. totally complete and that would be Jap games mostly here we have that piecemeal development with monthly releases containing mandatory 1-2 sex scenes as expected by players. It's the same tropes like gradual corruption and escalating sexual intercourses, changing dress/hair colour etc. - and I'm sure getting knocked up by Zack and then rushing to fuck Felix to pass a baby as his own is somewhere ahead.

But - as a result I have a feeling that there are already considerably more sex scenes than in NTR Homestay and the game is far from being finished. For the last few updated it probably could be felt by many that the game somewhat platooed - each update there is like a couple of new scenes with Zack, Sophie gets a bit more corrupted, no choices or considerable plot developments, Felix is none the wiser. There are some good mystery elements in his POV, but yeah - still overall that gets repetitive after a couple or two updates...

So probably it's high time (or was few updates ago) to introduce rather heavy branching to the game that would let people to pursue branches they're interested in or play through all of them rather varying branches as the game is being developed. (One of them could be Sophie getting much more sluttier and introducing other partners - Nate, Jonah or whomever). Then you go for 6-12 more moths developing those routes and finishing strong. I hope that Azienda have a pretty solid idea at this point of time about the endings and routes/branches that will lead to them.

Yeah, it's not like the devs introduced a major branching path a few updates ago or anything

It's just that they decided to finish the game one path at a time.

In my book it's not much of a branching, is it like splitting in two apart from a chance for an early quit & happy end? And in case they keep on with this 'default' branch for the time being - welcome & GL to having more of the sameish updates throughout 2024 at least. I'd put for you some rofl or lol smile here, pal, but that whole game development situation won't be much of a fun, if you ask me.

I would like to make an observation, we all call Felix an idiot because he doesn't understand what's happening, but it's not all true, except for a few moments, in other situations it would have been impossible for Felix to understand, except for the shower scene, but has anyone ever really thought that the real idiot of the game is Sophie herself, she doesn't realize that many times Zack corrupts her and makes her say things against Felix, forcefully forcing him to make her fall, Sophi is right, she was a naive nerd before, but she's wrong about something now, today she is a nerd Naive slut, Zack's toy, she calls Felix a loser and useless, but the real loser and dirty person is herself, she got trapped like a schoolgirl novice with sex, by the bad Zack, not It's Felix the jerk, but it's Sophi

buddy its just a game , You took the matter very seriously .
its so hilarious and weird ppl on here getting angry on porn game characters

 

[lkjhgfdfghjkl]

in fact my gripe with the genre is that the very thing what i want from an NTR story is very rare.

There are loads of stories in the loving wives category on literotica that extensively deal with the drama and consequences following infidelity. Search tags like betrayal, btb or revenge.

The cheating seen there generally isn't something to fap to though, but people don't seem to mind as it's one of the most active communities on that site. Maybe some of those authors will create a VN.

They already did the early quit & happy end waaaaaay back,

It's as major of a branch as is possible in a game like this.

Also, AFAIK the plan was to finish the game this year.

It's almost as if you've not even played the game or followed the game development in the slightest. Which is fine and all, but just don't go writing long ass posts about stuff that you don't know about.

Sophie still loves 2 things other than Zack
1. She still loves Felix somewhat (it's really hanging in a thin thread v21.0)
2. Her love for Teaching (she ditched teaching for the 1st time v20.1)

so I guess until she abandons them all for Zack similar updates will continue and this route will be over, hope Azienda will reveal all character motive, backstory etc in future updates.

I really want to know:
1. Why Zack is always sad. Why he became a psychopath? is it because his mother/girlfriend left him or he just enjoys toying with people.
2. Why Amy is helping Zack corrupt Sophie. Is it because she is love with Sophie or Jealous of her.
3. Why Brook tolerates Zack. How Zack is blackmailing Brook?
4. Why Harold quit a good job?
5. What's the deal with Jonah, Daniella and specially Nate.

Few of them should've been addressed a few updates ago.

 

[alyssssssssss]

That Sophi still loves Felix, it's a real thin thread, and the last update at the end, Zack forces her to say that Felix is a useless being, here in my opinion her love falls, he's now Zack's little dog, he leaves himself a lesson for go with Zack, but if the story came out, she would be removed from everything forever, she would lose everything, now, everything is about what Zack wants or is doing, She hates Felix for a strange past, she hates all women who sees them as sexual objects , he is perhaps truly in love with Sophi, and there are theories about Amy, is it part of Zack's game, or does he have resentments against Sophie for something in the past, it could also be that Amy was in love with Felix, and Sophi brought him Street. There are many questions that should be answered.

 

[xcalibar4]

Amy was in love with Felix

I doubt that, Amy has shown attraction toward Sophie previously and last Felix update shows she is willing to have a threesome with Sophie and Zack. I think after Zack Corrupted and left her she needs someone in her lonely corruption world and that someone is Sophie.

And I think Zack's motivation is he thinks all women are sluts and only good in one thing and one thing only like the manga S & M University. Amy loved to study and he didn't left her until she dropped out of college, the moment Sophie resigns as a teacher I think he'll ditch her.

There are many questions that should be answered.

This is all part of Zach's psychosis. Why does he find it necessary to demean Felix? Isn't fucking his wife enough? Not for Zach. He has to make Sophie say that she isn't interested in her husband anymore and admit that he is useless. It is all part of his overall plan. I don't know why he does it, hopefully, we will find out. I am hopeful of the end of this game. I would love to see Zach just leave Sophie crying wondering why he lied to her about everything. Then again, he may actually love her, who knows.
