Ren'Py Whispers of Desire [v0.15] [Mr_Fable]

I got the therapist idea after reading this. But I dunno if it is a true story.

Classic r/relationship_advice, not sure if I was there or on r/cuckold at least the guy had a spine - though the whole recording bit does bring the veracity of his character into question; like we're not getting the full story.

Here's an option:
Alex and Sarah actually discuss their new desires, and agree that they both should play this game together, as one, and see how far it goes, no cheating needed. With action for both, together or separately. And lots of hot talking (or whispers) about what occurs.

It would be great if players can choose the route they want to pursue. Is that the developers plan?

Still hoping someone can please load the note from the Dev and teaser from Patreon.

That's the plan

Next update ?

You communicate with a whisper of desire.

Ok, a whisper is basically words. But I couldn't resist.

And there are other ways you can communicate. You can communicate with a look, a touch, a nod, a kiss to name a few.

Now I get why this game's called Whispers of Desire

Next update ?

Five and a half more weeks.

That's the plan

A question that hasn't been asked but could be interesting regarding the male protagonist:
Can Alex become the main love interest of another married woman?
Can he play the role of a 'bull' in another couple's relationship?

I haven't planned this scenario. But that's an interesting premise. Maybe, but far down the line.

I agree with you, the corruption and dom stats would need to be high. That means we won't see something like that anytime soon. Of course, it depends on whether it even fits the story; maybe it won't fit at all, or maybe it will and it'll be super hot

That sounds dangerously close to Netori, which would exclude Sarah from that storyline - and I don’t see how that would fit the game with the current premise.

Best if the dev focuses on NTS and NTR.

The main focus of the story is on Sarah; she's the heart of it. Netori might undermine this focus, which is why I mentioned in my previous post that I'm not sure if it suits this story
But a maledom relationship between Alex and Jessica or Alex and others wouldn't cause a problem; it could be very interesting

Sarah? Isn't is supposed to be about both Alex & Sarah?

In any case, you are correct that some maledom for Alex fans could be a good idea, though I will always prefer if the dev sticks to a tight, focused script of pure NTS or pure NTR - there is already a crazy amount of variables being tracked, and I don't want the dev to get burned out once shit gets going and a hundred different variables need to be checked against every action taken.

Both Sarah and Alex are two main and highly important characters, and if their character, for any reason, fails to meet players' standards, the game loses its appeal for them. However, if we were to choose between the two, I personally consider Sarah more important because there's more sexual tension and excitement in her relationships with other men than in Alex's relationships with other women. Still, I emphasize that this is a comparison between what is "important" and what is "more important," not between what is "important" and "unimportant"

Regarding the second part of your statement:
That's correct; when there are too many separate paths, the game turns into a collection of short, shallow, unfocused, and less serious stories. So far, the developer has managed to progress through the three paths—Loyal, Sharing, and Netorare—without this problem arising, and we've had a cohesive and well-organized game

 

[NullVector]

If you're talking about the dev's focus when you say 'important,' then yeah, I get it. These types of games, like Perfect Marriage, Memories, and this one, they pretty much focus on the FMC. That's 'cause the whole story is about her getting corrupted or accepting sharing, or stuff like that
Like, in these games, the MC might get something, or they might not. But the FMC? She *always* gets something out of it. That alone kinda proves the focus is totally on her.

Yes, you could say that's what I mean by 'more important' – that the developer focuses more on her
But this doesn't mean Alex gets fewer scenes

I concur. The reason we play these games is to see the FMC engage in taboo behaviour, moreso than the MMC.

This game does a lot of things right (like the best friend not being a coniving bitch that convinces Sarah to cheat on Alex behind his back), so I hope it suceeds. It all depends on how wide this game gets.

Also, Mr Fable , are the constant jumps to labels necessary? I feel like simple "If-then-else" branches for short, path-specific dialogues would serve the purpose better, and be more compatible with URM for checking which variable leads to which outcome.

I have some ideas to make it all work, but let's see how it goes.

No particular reason. I will see if I can reduce them in future updates.
