There were even skills which had no use in the game, presumably left over from how it was supposed to be (was advertised).
Lol, now that you mention it, you can't even use gold in-game.
Talk about a magic bag that never runs out.
That was a funny segment of the game for me, I laughed.:D:D:D

Yeah for sure, so how much have you paid for this game? Oh wait nothing. Also pretty sure they refund people who ask so where's the issue? People like you are why cyberpunk 2077 came out the way you did. Rather it be amazing and take a while to come out than rushed and shit.
im agree with Hedasd this is VN not game i dont know if its even possible to make game with renpy so far most game are RPGM or unity and few unreal or other software

I think they redid them, but original skill was something like Human Shield gains +20% health.
You could only grab someone when in Stealth, not when in Combat.
So you'd have to sneak up & grab someone, then walk them up to their buddies to trigger combat, before this "skill" had any value. But you couldn't even shoot over their shoulder (despite the icon showing exactly that), so you had to drop them to engage, anyway.
Was completely, utterly worthless.

I'd say there's a decent amount of current content. Certainly plenty to get you invested in the story & characters.
I'd suggest waiting, though, as there is a new update dropping sometime in the coming weeks.

"I've got a present for you, Lana! After spending several days tracking down the ingredients to your favorite dish, I just shoved the uncovered plate into my bag and waited an entire night before giving it to you. Enjoy!"

Yet, the dish is still fully intact and steaming hot anyway. That's some bag!

I say wait, i was only medium interesting in the game, despite its quality, until the Lana update, now i'm hooked, unfortunately, art like this takes time, and that means I'll have to wait YEARS to give me sweetums the womb filling, baby batter she deserves. The game is funny, sexy and cool as is, but its frustrating to play anything this good and stop mid plotline.

I'd say WAL qualifies as a game, you go around and choose what content you want to do. The only thing that really separates this from a traditional "sandbox" type game is the lack of bullshit grind and minigames, which is a point in its favor IMHO. (I mean, really, who *actually* enjoys shit like managing hunger and sleep meters in games like Man of the House? Or doing the same scene over and over again to grind affection points to unlock further content?)

Anyway, Renpy can definitely do more "gamey" games, check out Planet Stronghold for an example. It's just not designed for it.

However, I do have some concerns as to the scope of the game as a whole: Just the roster of waifus we've got will likely take a decade or more to finish at the current rate, and they intend to at least double the size of that roster for the final game. Worse, each update takes longer and longer to finish because they increase the scope to be something bigger and better than the last. They've probably bitten off way more than they can chew and if this game is finished at all I would not be surprised if it had a rushed ending where we don't visit half the areas on that big world map.
Yeah, I know they've explained ad nauseum why bringing on more artists and developers won't help bring an update out faster in the short term, but the hard reality they need to face is that it's absolutely necessary in the long term if they don't want to still be working on this game when they're in a nursing home (or to bring it to a rushed, unsatisfying conclusion when they decide they want to move on from it). I for one want to see them finish this game to the full extent of their grandiose plans for it in a timely manner, not just because I'm impatient to have it, but because I want to see what else they can do. No creative person ever had just one idea.

To continue this line, this was just in 1 City space where the game's worldmap showed at least a few other major locations. If each major town is a 6+ LI with even complex and length Myrtle-grade/length content it is gonna be a long long road ahead to get everything to the degree of love, attention and polish without extra hands in the kitchen.

I'm not saying that's the plan, but if current quality is a statement of what's to come that's a big big ask for just 2 nuts (pun, intended.)

There wasn't. People are literally just posting pictures of Polish people to count down the remainder of polish left. No idea where he's getting that from.
Well, the number of Polish people keeps going down, so something must be happening to them.
MagicNuts' dark secret: the game is powered by human sacrifices!

Writing coaches: "Now, it's important that we don't make our villain *too* on the nose, they should be believable and empathetic-"
Magicnuts: "Nah."

Seriously though, I honestly don't mind Waldo? As an antagonist, I mean. Sure, he's way over the top in just how much of an asshole he is, but in our modern media landscape where every writer tries to make their villain the woobie "I was abused as a child so I'm gonna blow up the world" or some well-intentioned extremist who goes too far "the world will be destroyed unless the system is overthrown, now execute the toddlers" a straightforward villain like Waldo is a breath of fresh air. And honestly, he's kinda more realistic than the alternative? Most assholes you meet in real life don't have complicated justifications for why they're assholes, they just have positions of power over you (or at least, think they do) and enjoy flexing that power for personal gain.

Weekly report 115

Hi everybody.

Happy Friday, and I hope you're all ready to enjoy your weekend.
This week's report will be short. We're almost done with all of the debugs and edits -- the progress tracker will reach 100% completion today, and here's our plan for the next few days:
  • We will spend Saturday, Sunday, and Monday playing the finished content and doing nothing other than testing different quests with different save files, typo-hunting, and looking for things we have overlooked.
  • On Wednesday, we plan to send the game out to external testers. We think giving external testers until Saturday should be enough (based on our experience with the previous releases).
  • If all goes well, and all the bugs found are minor and quick fixes, we should have the release ready for the next Saturday, the 30th of July.
That's our plan, and we're hopeful we will reach it. If we see the game is ready before that, we will release it sooner; as soon as we can't find new things that need to be fixed/improved. Also, I would be remiss if I didn't mention that if we find a major game-breaking bug, we may have to delay the game, but I'd say the chance of that happening is pretty slim.

The game will be first released for patrons with the tier of Friend and above, and 24 hours later, we will publish it publicly for everyone. You will receive a message on Patreon once the new update is out.

We're both excited and nervous and can't wait to release the update to show you the result of all these months of work.

Have a wonderful weekend.
Cheers
