VN Ren'Py Where the Heart Is [S1 Rev1] [CheekyGimp]

To be perfectly frank, I like to kid about Francois from time to time, but I really think the scenes with him have gone beyond comical to just plain mean.

I have zero issues with the banter between Katie and the MC (although those scenes can drag a little too). Katie is who she is, and that's part of why we like her.

You're just saying this because Francois don't have titties.

See? Katie has titties

We just have to cut out Katie's voice box and she'd be perfect. But, then she'd just learn sign language and the bullshit would start up again. Bah! You guys can keep her.

I actually did enjoy Katie's banter at the start of the game, back when it was something fun that the two of them shared together. But then the writer's changed it into some sort of weird compulsion that Katie couldn't control, and it became a negative quality instead of a positive one. Her jokes became overused, tired, and dull. Her dinner date should've been something unique to Katie, but instead it was just a poor imitation of Monica's date. She should've been helping us set Debbie up with Lily, or dealing with the aftermath of what we did to Natasha, or being anything other than a one track joke dispenser.

Katie was so much more interesting at the start of the game. She was a well rounded and believable character. But now she's just an insecure joke bot in desperate need of new material. It's so bad that it's affecting other areas of the game now. The setup for Debbie and Lily was very anemic, which makes the foursome scene seem like pure fan service. I triggered the foursome even though I had rejected Lily several times, had done nothing to get them together, and had Debbie angry with me because she refused to believe that I wasn't interested in Lily.

Francois was fun the first time, but the second one was a disaster. It was too repetitive, it happened too soon after the previous scene with him, it took up far too much of the night out, and it just wasn't clever or funny. The only good thing about his third appearance in the game was how short it was. I can't stand him at this point, and I hope he never returns.

Katie seems very polarizing in the love or hate category. I just don't understand if you don't like her... why keep seeing her optional content?

As for Francois, I thought he made a great straight man (comedically speaking), but I suppose you will be happy to know I don't see him returning anymore. Four times would be jumping the shark.

Eh, I feel like you may have already nuked the fridge with Francois. The lunch "date" with poison woman felt a little forced.

But that's just me and we all know I'm the crazy guy who wants to actually see the plot move forward instead of seeing boobies...

Yes Katie was very nice and appealing at the beginning of the game, she has a stunning body, but as time goes she becomes more and more annoying, destroying all the good moments we can have with her.
And i realised that she is boring, she just has her girls in her mind and she looks totally stupid about this. Getting cheated by her best friends the time she turn around!!
That was the thing that made me forget about her, how could i have any respect for that gang of assholes sluts.

Jenna on the other hand is a real treasure, the more i know her the more i love her. I will definitely make her my girl she is so beautiful, funny and lovable !!
And the last scene with her and Jolina was really something i will remember for a long time!

I believe that was answered by Ariostebaldo

So we won't be taking Francois up on this offer?



To bad I think that could've been the best one.

Sounds like something to put in an epilogue. Even if it just cuts of after showing Francios' shocked face when we walk in.

Beware, umpteenth red herring, Francois is the third inheritor

New here... does it have harem and could mc knock up all npcs?

There will be no harem, probably a few groups.
As far as EP20 goes, you can knock up all NPCs, there will be consequences later in the game though

 

[Alfred the Fallen]

I keep hoping that she will have a return to form and go back to the person she was at the start of the game. She was my favourite character in the game for a long time, so it's hard to just give up on her completely.

When the game first dropped, Katie was my favorite. Over time, she has become the one I want nothing to do with. Ep 15 was the last time I gave a shit about her.

So, I'll stick with Debbie and Wanda.

Towards the end of actual content we have to make an optional choice and choose the girl you want to live with and also a second choice.
So no harem i guess, and more you have the ability to start to reject many of th girls. I got the opportunity to get rid of LIly, Debbie and Katie the morning after the Beach House party. I also had a dialogue to break with Monica at almost the same time. and for Jenna too.
So it seems that the game starts to guide you to a single girl path by giving you more and more occasions to break up.
I was also very surprised to see how easy it was to break up and how well the girls reacted, even Katie just insulted me as usual and told me she would not cry over this. It was just like if i just flipped a switch. I was expecting drama, a big confrontation and maybe get ejected from Monica's house but no, nothing happened.
So if you keep all the girls wiil the game suddently place you in a situation where you will have to choose or will you be able to go on with that cheating game forever.
For the moment most of the girls clearly made you understand that they don't want to share, so an open harem would be a huge surprise.

Well, Cheeky has always stated that there is no harem. But, there will be at least 2 groupings of girls. Jenna + Jo, and Katie + Debbie/Lily. That's pretty much the extent of it.

If you continue the man whore path, it won't be good. Remember how you lost Katie and crew? Yeah, man whore path will end up being the 'alone' path.

 

[ProofreadingRUS]

Zahah is not that old, why would Joline call her Granny?

 

[DA22]

Jealousy would be one reason, but that would imply she knows or knows about Zarah. More likely she just does not like other women around MC with the exception of Jenna by definition, since she seems to be possibly interested in Jenna as well or even more as in MC.

We need a vomit reaction. Not sure what else to say on that. I'm not a fan of all the 'Sharing girls with anyone'. Yes, that includes with each other so....

Yes i agree, the man whore path will certainly end up badly, but what is a bit odd in that game, it's the fact that the game tend to force you that way.
For example it was very hard to get rid of Bella, quickly i made it clear that she was just a friend, but the game tried many time to force me into her. I guess it's just game design that cannot take in account every decision you make, it would be a nightmare to handle for the dev!
The game is setup for everyone and many scenes seem weird if you reject someone soon.
For example in my second playtrough i quite quickly said to Katie that she was just a friend, but at the beach scene everything went on as she was my girlfriend, she got jalous, fight with Debbie and so on.
So i guess it's only towards chapter 18-20 that you seem to have to make your choices or you skip a lot of content and end up with weird situations.

So if i can end the story with Jenna and Jolina i would be in paradise, i get a hard on just thinking of it!!! , but it certainly will not be easy to explain this to Monica or the game will just make it easy, i already tried to break up with Monica and the game just told me OK "she took it easy, no drama" !!!
If it ends up like this, with all the girls i promised to be the perfect boyfriend just change their mind in a second without problems, i would be quite lame, what's the point of all those love stories, are all those girls just as rotten as the MC and have no real feelings??

Love it. Hope for more Harem/Poly relations
