VN Unity Vox Gremory [R7] [Winterfire]

Maybe an achievement list similar to Legacy of Hestia, but rather than unlocking side stories, you unlock ecchi scene rewards
Anyway, love your suggestion and will definitely implement it in future! If you got more, let me know (Including any scene you'd like to see in particular).

Honestly? I dont belive that it will be implimented any time soon if ever(late stage development at best IMHO), but Imma be greedy and still want all 3 of the fallen girls.
I know that the models for those two are probably harder to find, but if you ever will

, give a reward for maxed out stats to the players via potential fork/choice that is blacked out unless all stats are maxed out

.

In that fork there can be something like - Issei being a true grind chad that he is - saving Asia on his own, before they had the chance to trully harm her(ecchi pic for all girls clothes getting ripped upon defeat or something like that to stay true to the ecchines of DXD), and then(due to hating the fallen way less) given an option to decide whom to spare, if spare anyone at all, with a follow up choice of either letting them go(basically letting Asia decide, and since she is a cinamon roll we know what she will chose), or bringing them in to Rias and Akeno for them to be send to dungeon Raynere style and perhaps reapear as a "collectable" if not interractable characters later down the line(Like horny Issei grinding something to buy them out from the dungeons of a Gremory to recruit as maids/pleasure slaves/etc).

In general, Romancing, rizzing up, or collecting spared baddies from base DxD like Katerea kinda feels more organic than just adding random card girls. Not to mention that while the game will probably still remain mostly linear, being able to influence the fates of hot baddies will be an upgrade that will just feel right

As for where will he get the dungeon or a place to store maids? In base Anime Issey was litterally granted his own after one of the arcs, and since he isnt a magically impotent dunce here(and much more deserving being a powerfantasy grind chad that he is), him teleporting there from his room, or back, via a simple icon to the side next to map and enjoing the spoils is kinda a given. (naturally, Chad Issei should get access to it a few chapters earlier for being a goodest of boys that doesnt skip his training.

Hope this wasnt too pushy. Cheers.

P.s. also, if you or your supporters dont hate the idea of using AI for side characters, this is litterally me locally generating a pic set using base Pony V6 model, character LORA, and a mix of 3 artist style loras on an SDforge via promts. At least as far as generating emotion sprites for characters - adding additional girls is easier than it ever was.

Actually very close to what I had planned, but Kalawarna, Mittelt, Viser and possibly other minor enemies in future (Which the protagonist never meets, or has very little interaction with) will be Patreon/SS-only scenes (Just codes).
I'll use that opportunity to test (and learn) 2D Animation, so models won't really be needed as I can just trace a very generic body shape which closely resembles their body type, then do the rest myself using some references.

Unfortunately that's pretty much impossible, even excluding the fallen angels and group of priests, Freed would easily dispose of MC at that point of the story. Freed is actually stronger than Raynare (Hence why he pretty much makes fun of her), and (unless I rebalance the system after creating it and testing), the MC would be able to handle Freed only if he had the same power as the end of R8 (Training + Unlocked power).
After the training (R7), MC can fight Kiba with around three boosts, but Freed handled both Kiba and Koneko in a serious battle.

Anyway, it doesn't even matter because Issei cannot really sneak around, Rias and Akeno are already aware of the situation, and they're the ones that handle the other fallen angels (Only in the anime the protagonist encounters them, with the exception of Dohnaseek.

In general, Romancing, rizzing up, or collecting spared baddies from base DxD like Katerea kinda feels more organic than just adding random card girls.

Not sure how to handle Katerea yet, technically she's free from any relationship (hardly hinted she's in one anyway) so she's useable, but I still haven't decided if to write a plot where Katerea becomes one of the heroines or just throw her into the supporters-only scenes, I'll have to think more about it once I am closer to that point of the story.

Having a supporters-only scene would surely be easier since I don't see Katerea stop detesting Issei's existence if not by having him beat her up in a fight. I still haven't written her character's sheet so I don't even know if it's technically possible for Issei to face her.

In a way or another I'd like to have some scenes with Katarea though since she has a beautiful design.

Riser's women are so random they don't even get portraits (Not complaining, just think it's funny)

R8 has portraits for all of them, but majority of them are just placeholders. Xuelan is the only one I finished:

I didn't make full character portraits because I wanted to make it clear that those characters don't have scenes and never will, however I'll have to make full-body portraits for most of them due to the fact Dress Break will unlock a CG for them, with all their body statistics .

Scenes outside of a game that arent implimented in final build . Would have been awesome to impliment it all at the end build since otherwise such stuff usually becomes a lost media , but oh well.

Solution to balance is simple actually.
IF ALL Stats == MAX
EXECUTE ONEPUNCH MEME
ELSE
Normal code

Draig is hax anyways.

As for anime - not anime, cannon - not cannon. Usually the rule of cool is the best rule. This game survived intrusion of Tulpa Bowsette already.

IMHO, you are taking a game that at its core is ment to enhance the experience of a comedy ecchi setting with some additional pron a bit too seriously.
There are implications that outside of boost basic strength boosting applies to any concepts as long as user has enough imagination and intelligence. Issey can simply apply the boost selectively to rizz or something as silly.

Issei in this universe already became smart enough and magically attuned enough to teleport? Why cant max stat training freak Issei figure out one of the world breaking bugs that the Boosted Gears were made to achive to begin with?
One time per day boost luck chance used to hit Freed in the nuts pretty much leaves the hero with 3 grunts by the standart of the setting, one of whom, Kala specifically, was defeated by Issei by accident before he got even a sherd of training.

Cheat code please

Great Game

i laughed way harder than i should have at this.
technically it's possible... but there's no way issei has the ability to do this. dude (even in winter's parody) is still a potato. he's maybe 90 IQ if we're being generous.

I have no idea how the sandbag minigame is supposed to work. I only manage one punch with [Enter]. Am I really supposed to wait the whole minute for one hit?

No, that was a bug in WebGL which I was sure I had fixed. Which platform are you playing it from?


-edit-
Nevermind, I realized you most likely tried the online version on itch.io. That's still R6 with the bug, I'll be uploading the new one in the upcoming days.

(Replying to the review made by Riggedbound ):

Where's the porn?

It's only nudity, or things you can... buy in game? Pornception? No actual sex stuff, the story is pretty mild, even tamer than Fate series.

There's a handjob scene, and on chapter 9 there'll be a blowjob scene, but aside from those, "sex stuff" will occur only once the protagonist is in a relationship with a heroine (Rias and Asia at first). As mentioned above, I'm doing my best for the game to reach that point (hence why combat and other features are currently on hold), but I believe the build up is more important than the actual sex scenes. Anyone can go on rule34 and look for Rias/Asia porn, games are played for the story and the build up leading to said sex scenes, context is very important to make a scene sexy and pleasant.

- Minigames are really boring, given the amount of time you need to play them
- Minigames are endless. Skill cap is very low, you can punch the sandbag and stay on 60 seconds left for your whole life. Sadly I got bored long before I acquired max exp

Minigames are designed to be very simple so that anyone can play them, and it's also impossible to fail them, you'll only earn more by doing better, but anyone can progress them and continue with the main storyline. That's by design.
There'll be more complex ones, but for very optional stuff, so that no one is blocked from progressing on the core game.

I agree the minigames take longer than usual right now, that's because the game is currently missing 1000 experience from the lack of combat (and therefore lack of experience from those combats), I'll try to implement the exp reward system in the future next releases so the grind issue will be solved at the very least.

It's streamlined, 1 choice through five full chapters + part of sixth, where I dropped this game. ALTHOUGH it's not a real con, sometimes you can do good stuff with rare choices that matter, so...

There's more than an important choice, and some are made by having (or not having) high enough stats (They don't play an important role just in combat, but during the story as well). If you check your gallery, you should see some locked CGs prior to the seventh chapter content, those are different choices with different outcomes.
Still too early in the story to have more choices branching story even more, but for example Chapter 8 has another set of important choices. (It also explains why the protagonist hasn't embraced Asia yet, which is the only heroine who is in love with the protagonist at that point of the story, and could realistically have sex scenes with).

demons are requested to play fucking videogames, I slapped my face

In the DxD universe there are many gamers, and they even have a version of youtube. Also, to be fair, the protagonist is kind of a nerd and he won't stop only because he was reincarnated.

Sad it's not a porn game on a porn game site.

It's an adult game, the main focus is not on porn, but on the story. There'll be porn content for sure, even a lot of it, it just takes time to reach that point "naturally" without making it feel forced like I need to cross a checkbox.

The "speak->gift->..." system was never really good to begin with, sad to see its implementation with Asia

It won't be that bad, it's just an extra with no limits of time. You won't be locked out of anything, it's mostly a way to get more content with the heroines you like the most.

 

[Riggedbound]

Ayo, thanks for the detailed answer and mention! It's really fair, so nothing I could've add or respond back to, of course I am fully agree with the context argument. My only hopes for seeing the further development, even though I haven't supported it. Based on Overlord game, you seem really experienced. Best of wishes!

Thank you for the detailed and fair review!
Playing and leaving feedback is also a form of support in my opinion, and I really appreciate it.

*snip*

you forgot to mention there's the sex animations already with the card collection fantasy fairy things. (forget the term atm but i remember it started with a T.)

 

[Winterfire]

He mentioned that in his review already, although they're easy to miss. I should really replace the "collect" button with a "Summon" button instead.

 

[MattSS]

I respect your decision to not just force porn into the very beginning of the game regardless if it makes sense for it to be there or not.

 

[Winterfire]

I updated Itch.io with R7 build now, so that issue should be fixed now. I also enabled the possibility to play on mobile's browser, this is untested but should work since the game supports mobile now.

Yeah, it was on the online version. Thanks for the reply!
