Ren'Py What a Legend! [v0.7.03] [MagicNuts]

I think you folks are conflating two issues: Quality and Style.

Style (2D vs 3D) is important, but it's not sufficient. What really matters is Quality. Chestnut is super talented and makes fantastic art. If she was equally talented at 3D art and made that, we'd still love this game. And, if a lesser artist did poor quality 2D art, we wouldn't be as enthusiastic about it.

Many of the posts here compare Chestnut's incredible 2D art to poor quality 3D art and conclude that 2D automatically is better. It's not. It's that Chestnut is better. But there is 3D art created by similarly skilled artists that is also good. And it takes as long to produce as WaL's 2D art.

When people complain about 3D models, it's probably about the DAZ or Honey Select repetitive models (and some are downright atrocious, alongside the physics-denying, form-fitting clothes). 2D games, on the other hand, mostly have vastly different art styles. Looking at the same 3D model with different names and stories through a myriad of games is part of the 'quality' aspect - and it's a negative one.

I started playing ero games only in 3D, but nowadays I basically only play 2D ones.

Finally someone understand, I'm still playing both 2D and 3D games but in the end 2D tend to stuck to me more. Not gonna lie there's a lot of great 3D games that are very good and got high quality story writing, models, sex scenes,.... but good 2D games are something else

Hi everybody.
I hope you've had a great week and are ready to relax and enjoy your weekend. We have a few points to share before the report:
Refunds:
Although I usually wait until the 5th of each month before issuing the refunds, for this month I saw that all of the payments were already processed, so I went ahead and refunded those of you who joined toward the end of June to make sure you don't have to pay twice. If I have missed you, do send me a message here and let me know as soon as possible.
Avatars:
If you're a Best Friend or a Close Friend tier patron and want to see your avatar in the game, do send its code to us through Patreon or Discord (contacting Pistachio). You can make your avatar

.
Word count:
The number of words that an update has doesn't mean much in itself, but out of curiosity to see how 0.5 compares to 0.4, I did a word count, and 0.5 has about 35,000 words which are a lot more than the 20,000ish words of 0.4. I still have a lot more editing to do, which usually reduces the number of words. This doesn't necessarily mean longer play-time, but there are more dialogues, necessitated by the fact that in 0.5, a lot of the world's lore is revealed. Hopefully, we have added enough action and variation to make it feel interesting.
Weekly report:

• Chestnut: she worked on more backgrounds and cutscenes, finishing several, and created new buttons for one of them. You can see one of the new areas added in 0.5

• Pistachio: I spent the first half of the week posing and finishing the main content of the update. Now all that's left posing-wise are the convos (some of which I still have to write/rewrite) and the animations.
• Next week's plan: Chestnut wants to finish the backgrounds to spend all of her time on the cutscenes, leaving more minor edits for later so that we can advance as much as possible. I will probably spend the whole of the coming week editing, testing, and making sure the flow of the story feels good before we work on the sex scenes. If the editing takes less time than I think, then I will begin doing the convos and ask Chestnut to design the base of the sex scenes so that I can start animating them.

Lastly, we'll be posting a new video this weekend.
Have a great time.
Cheers

Finally decided to try this game out

Story is okay and the graphics are top-tier for 2D.

Only complaint, the game feels like one giant fetch quest. I've been moving through the same forest area clicking through the same maps for the past hour. Already starting to liberally skip dialogue.

Getting pretty bored if im being honest but I can see the potential... Going to tough it out and see if it gets better

can't wait for her content <3

I don't get it, it's just a chubby older lady. There are way hotter mature women in the game already.

Milf with a perfect mature looking face
Curvy, big breasts and ass
Very nice and friendly nature
Asshole Waldo's wife, this alone will make her scenes 2x better for me

What's not to like?
I'm waiting for her content since I first saw her

我只是亚洲的一个穷人，我不能赞助你，但我喜欢你的比赛

 

[Abhai]

I like this game, yet I'm poor and can't support it.

There is no poor men in China - no excuses!

It's really interesting to hear from an ero-dev about style preferences and where they started when discussing hentai games. I don't know about elsewhere, but here where I am, even the bare mention of these games is severely taboo.

I like to log in every week or so and check out what's going on. It may sound odd in conjunction with my statement about taboo, but I'm lucky enough to have a friend or two who get this genre of games, and I've shown them your art. It definitely has a wow factor that overshadows the much-exploited lame donkey image that erotic games have received in the past. You guys are doing something fantastic.

Fantastic art

 

[verconic69]

Waldo's wife fulfills two things:

1. She is a milf with really pretty face and very friendly personality. I can see her back story being interesting because she is way too good for someone like Waldo who has no redeeming quality whatsoever (He doesn't have the looks nor the personality and is a bully so I am wondering why exactly she would stay with him).

2. Waldo is an asshole and getting payback is going to be great. Turning the tables on him and making him feel how bad it is to take someone's lover will be cathartic. I don't even like NTR as their stories treat women badly and are full of toxic stories involving rape and stuff but in this case I am more than fine with it because it isn't as bad as examples of tropes I mentioned.

Oh, I'm not a dev. You might quote magicnuts instead, as he's the dev of this game (although the art is from his wife, Chestnut).

This is literally 90% of the girls in the game. I could pull a bunch of screen caps, but it's unnecessary considering a most of the girls are shown in the first post of this thread already.

Milf with a perfect mature looking face

If by "mature" you mean "chubby face with a square jaw" - I agree.
Otherwise Rose, Anne, Lana and Dear Celestina look old enough to be in the almost-or-above-40 range.

I mean, there's nothing wrong with liking chubby women, but you can't pass it off as 'maturity'.

 

[Blades1138]

Are you serious? Except Lana, all the characters you mentioned look like they are on their mid-to-late 20s.

OK, I may have pushed it a bit with Rose and Anne who look like slightly above 30.
But I'm still not going to say that Gretta's unattractive face is what defines her as 'mature'.
I realize it's a subjective matter, but conventional attractiveness (accepted by the widest group of people) is defined with very different features, and chubby/overweight isn't one of them.

Depends upon what you mean about "widest group of people." The modern "Northern European" standards of beauty are not universal, despite being the most common in modern media. Just because it is the standard you're used to doesn't mean it is universal.

I think this is probably the best lewd game, at least visually, currently in production. If the scenes get a bit more fetishy and kinkier ( ) this game has potential to be one of the biggest on patreon.

The art is top tier. The other day I was looking at the details and the lighting in the backgrounds just for the hell of it and I am continually impressed by the talent here. If they are utilized well this team is unstoppable.
