Ren'Py What a Legend! [v0.7.05] [MagicNuts]

[Thicc Lord]

mods really deleted my response to somebody here that was contributory calling it a personal argument. That's wild. I was genuinely interacting with the fans of this game, didn't "argue" about anything. Hope they deleted the person whom I replied to's argument.

God forbid the community that plays the games gets to discuss the games, right?

Because it was part of a longer argument.

1. All discussions in these threads should be kept on-topic and be about the game/content/creator/etc
   • Memes/gifs/reactions are fine as long as they don't derail the discussion and aren't excessive or distracting, eg. combining or chain quoting them is considered excessive. As a rule of thumb, if words are enough then do not use an image
   • Discussion must be limited to the game/comic/asset/author listed on the OP. You may discuss other content from the same developer, but please do not discuss content from other developers.
   • Do not branch the topic into posting about random unrelated discussions, favorite movies/food/weather/etc, or complaints about moderator actions/rules
   • Please move any disruptive/prolonged arguments to PM

However, I would like to underline one thing: the concept of Patreon, of a patron, goes beyond the delivery of the work. We or anyone who is a subscriber is a patron: he invests a sum to obtain one or more products, following a directive. But it is clear that if something happens to those who enjoy the support of one or more patrons, we must also keep in mind that the delivery will be postponed. For example: if Da Vinci or Virgilio had caught a cold or had diarrhea, it is obvious that whoever pays and supports them would have taken care of them, paying for the doctor and treatment. A very banal and very simple example, but it serves to explain the concept behind it. Then it is obvious that there are those who take advantage of it. The work behind the creation of content or a work (gaming, comics or other) is tiring, exhausting and stressful. Even those who simply make videos on YouTube for educational purposes have a lot of trouble looking for sources, writing texts, reviewing them, confirming the news they find, etc.

Magic Nuts is obviously taking a long time (a year or more of development), but if I'm not mistaken, in the middle there was the birth of a child, with all the problems and unknowns that brings in terms of time, commitment and costs. Let's then consider that, poor thing or that, the child or one of his parents has had health problems, you will understand that planning takes a backseat for a moment. He himself said that there were problems months ago, in addition to the fact that this development is more demanding than all the others (I don't remember if he specified it due to the large amount of content or not). Furthermore, we must keep one thing in mind: going forward (version 0.7 currently in progress), times will inevitably lengthen: we will probably see the final version in five or maybe six years. I would suggest, without controversy obviously, patience and trust. ICSTOR rewarded in the end with a game well done and quite intriguing (and horny... Celia, if she were real, I would gladly fuck her). Let's wait and keep our fingers crossed in the meantime.

I thought for sure that even with all the hand-wringing in this thread that they wouldn't go past July without a release, but here we are wrapping up August and still nothing.

I'm not a supporter so I have no stake in keeping them actively developing, but I really hope the release is before the end of the year.

I haven't been looking at this thread for a month, and people are already losing it.

I usually am out of the website and only comeback to see if there has been any updates or something for the stuff I'm watching.
I simply don't comment to any sides of the "fight", I just stay in a corner and watch.

Haven't played since 0.5.X. What did i missed?

Mostly Rose's storyline, like almost all of it (only a few "extras" remaining) and the "new patreon guidelines" update which can be considered a downgrade rather than something important.

Damn, that kinda sucks tho. I really hopped for more Holly scenes. Anyway, you wouldn't have a 100% save by any chance?

When you have a comfortable income, provided by investors who support you financially on a monthly basis...it's a bit like pouring cold water on the fire...money changes people...the fire that ignited this project has diminished to smoldering ashes.
Yet, I still have faith in this developer, I'm sure the 'Gomira update' will happen soon.

Just out of curiosity, how hard would it be for someone with a particular set of skills to hack this games code and just finish the game themself, or with a team? It seems like there are a lot of folks on here who know how to do all of that, and I do wonder why they don't just finish these games themself. It's not like there are any strong copy rights with these games, or is there?

 

[RT5X]

Man I wish Patreon didn't nitpick so annoyingly at small shit with these games.
Like I don't care about aging up the MC but the "Surprise Orgy" dialogue having to be changed to the newer girls is just fucking stupid.
Like what is Patreon gonna lose for letting certain shit slide. Unless some article or a payment provider makes a fuss about it to them then just leave it alone. It makes the site money
I swear games should just do the go old fashioned
"What is the character to the MC?"
And we can change it from "Landlord" to Mother lol

 

[Abaddon Doom]

RT5X...we're sliding towards absolute control and regulation. The prison cell we were born into is real...the reality changes based on their agenda, they manipulate our lives on a daily basis, we are slaves to the system.

The good news is that update 0.8 will be focused on Holly (development is currently on the last steps to finish 0.7), the bad news is that it may take awhile for that also no 100%, try the search feature maybe you can find one.

I think this is the main reason, more specific PayPal.

It's not like there are any strong copy rights with these games, or is there?

That will depend a lot on the measures the devs took to protect their work, the type of game doesn't have anything to do with it.

But even if that is the case Fandom works are still permitted like what happens with "Parodies" as long as they respect the 4 factors required for it to be considered fair use.

Different than patents or trademarks, copyright is much easier to obtain.

Anyone could take any renpy game from here, reverse compile it, and complete it however they wish, but they'd find out really quickly how hard it is to create appealing graphics and a well paced, well written game. It's easier to sit on the side lines and throw shit (I'm very good at that, I must say), but the reason there aren't thousands of fantastic games here is because it's not easy.

But there is a much easier way to complete the game the way you want:

• Take out a piece of paper, draw two stick characters, one with tits, make them hold hands and then write: THE END.
• Then you can imagine your mc ended up with the girl of his dreams, and you don’t have to wait several years for the real story to end.
• Of course, you can even mix it up, you’re not limited with how many stick figures you add, and you don’t have to draw tits on them, that was just a suggestion.
• You’re in complete control now, this ending is gonna be epic!

I dont get how there is plenty on step-incest in porn made in the US , even incest based movies like "Taboo" but god forbit a porn game contains even a reference of some vitrual character and his vurtial step mom , we simply cant have that can we ?!

In the endgame (if that ever happens)
they should throw everything out the door and let the orgy with the moms ensue as normal lol
Theres no way a patreon employee will get that far lmao

There's some really good Myrtle scenes with Rose though that the previous person forgot to mention. I hope that makes up for it

They still make the game available for download though their official website, I don't know why they don't keep that version as it is but it may be to make easier to keep track of things and avoid mistakes. So who knows if they don't release a small patch outside of patreon that will update the game to their original idea when the project is over.

 

[vonamatas]

[..] I really hope the release is before the end of the year.

The end of which year?





Just kidding! no offense.
