New Thread Ratings

Went into this game expecting something somewhat decent based off the rating the game has, quickly learned it's abysmal in just about every aspect. Total waste of time, not enjoyable to play at all.

Character limit Character limit

There are like 60 scenes in gallery, which reuse 4-5pictures! assets, with minor variations in text and blushing.

The scenes are generic and dull, there is only 1 guy, which does not even feel like fitting the genre. Its not ntr its relationship with another guy, with mc being a filler.

Endless grind/chore, boring skippable dialogues.

The review below me "NaotoUzumaki1001" is COMPLETELY FALSE. Everything that was said in their review was them twisting words of the dev because they were an all-round dick and got banned from the discord for being too much of said dick. Proof is in pages 37-39 (get a good laugh from his absolutely pathetic "I unalived myself" message on page 39. You won't regret it, it's hilarious)

Okay, rant aside, onto the game itself. The game is still in development, so I'll base my review on what's in the game so far.

The main reason why we are all here, is because we didn't like the way that the Kuroinu canon played out and we wanted to change it. Well, here you can do exactly that, you do indeed change canon and prevent all the rapey stuff from happening to the waifus.

For those who want to see Vult/his goon absolutely destroyed mortal kombat style? That might have to wait a bit. Okay, maybe it won't be THAT gory, but I really believe that he will get absolutely destroyed in the endgame.

For the harem? From what I heard, every main girl excluding Lulu (because she's too much of a loli, and will get the entire project nuked if she's lewded because Patreon rules) would be included. For Claudia, she's a bit of a grey zone, since she's married to Klaus (who doesn't die), and you end up with a polyamorous relationship with her.

Bugs? Well, are certainly a few of them, but nothing gamebreaking from what I've played. As for the gameplay? It falls a bit short there, since it's standard RPGM stuff, but hopefully that might get a revamp.

Overall? I would have subtracted one star for the not-so-great gameplay, but I added it back purely because it's a Kuroinu fan game, and there's so little out there

Great art, good writing, hot scenes. Games has it all, its just missing content. What is does have is very good. I am eagerly waiting more. Id say it worth playing now, but for those who like lots of content id keep this one your watch list and come back in a few months.

This game is going from bad to worse…

I mean, who writes this kind of crappy text? Are you an 18y-old horndog?

There’s absolutely nothing interesting about the interactions and conversations. It’s all blablabla.

Not to mention the road the story has taken. You’re making shit up as you go and completely lost your original blueprint.

Season 2 Episode 1 blew the whole build-up from the entire first season to pieces, and Episode 2 tries to introduce a new and interesting story-arch but fails to deliver, instead it becomes boring and meaningless.

And btw, what's up with those weird faces? Certain emotions you want to emphasize, look like the person just realized he/she stepped in a giant turd.

The game has been great so far. It's got all the tags I look for basically, and the main character is exciting. I like that the creator has given us a choice for how fast or how slow we want to really take the action, and I can't wait to see where the story goes from here. Probably my favorite game going right now.

It's a god awful game with some nice scenes and animations done in koi. I keep downloading it to watch the new scenes, which are just mpgs i a folder because the one time i tried to play it was just confusing. It's buggy, hard to know what to do, basically a laundry list of how not to make a game. On the porn side it's good NTR with alright pacing which is always important for a good porn game. Like seriously just delete the world map or something.

This is the continuation of previous game, following story of super-powerful psionic in his quest of saving certain space station (and picking girls for his harem).

PROS:
+ Very long, detailed sci-fi story. Game is worth playing just for that.
+ Decent quality of CGIs compared to previous game.
+ Lots of cute and sexy girls and lots of other girls (they are sexy too if your tastes are enough exotic/weird).
+ No dumb bimbos or random fucktoys. Every girl and most of other characters have their personality, background and place in the story.
+ Many sex scenes involving bunch of fetishes like pregnancy, aliens, weird body physiology or proportions - all of them avoidable through choices.
+ Nice background music.

CONS:
- Sex dialogues. While normal dialogues are good, the sex ones are quite terrible because almost every girl speaks lines taken directly from some cheap porn clips. While it suits some of them it completely doesn't match with the rest and breaks the immersion. Not sure while dev decided to go that way.
- No animations. Instead we have sequences of switching static images. Loops sometimes gets too long an repeatable when it comes to sex scenes. Also they often lack feeling of motion - it's bit odd when only MC's pelvis is moving back and forth for like 30 seconds and the rest stays frozen.
- It's not typical VN when we get many choices affecting main story. Again it's more like kinetic novel with some options to save life of certain characters or be nice to a certain girls thus giving us additional scenes (but it's not a large issue since good kinetic novel is still good even without many branching ending). As far as combat part goes MC is pretty invincible and I'm not sure if he can even be killed (maybe I missed bad endings).

As usual for this developer we don't get typical porn game and fucking everything that moves is never top goal. Story sticks mainly around great politics, deep plots, murders, wars, conspiracies, saving galaxy and stuff like that. Yet in the same time we can still find lots of erotic encounters and chances to add more girls to harem but they are never essential. But it should be noted that in order to get all scenes and best outcomes we still need to get them all, so there is this balance between SFW and NSFW content.

So is it worth playing? Yes it is without any doubt. Despite minor flaws it's really great game.

one of the best visual novels i've ever played, and certainly the greatest piece of furry media that's ever come my way.

Changeling Tale sets the stage like so: after a grueling tour in the first world war, our protag, Malcolm, returns to his idyllic highland hometown of Ach-na-Creige and the sensation of it all. he revels in the tastes and smells he hasn't known since shipping out to the front lines while the reader bathes in a soundscape so above and beyond the usual visual novel fare that it's currently in orbit.

there's something about audio that can truly elevate a game. sure, Changeling Tale isn't Halo 3 or Homeworld, but both the soundtrack and the backgrounding are just stellar.

gorgeous, almost hymnal piano drapes the entire game, punctuated by Scottish bagpipes and a scattering of brass. it's packed with dozens of songs -- i can think of more than a few triple-A releases without that sheer repertoire. on top of that, the phenomenally mastered backgrounding: barflies chatter, hooves clop, waves crash. no detail is overlooked. all of it assembled, somehow, from royalty-free audio.

this dedication to atmosphere's purpose is, of course, to support the writing. that's not to say the writing is bad; on the contrary, it's absolutely yoked. it carries the game like a powerlifter carries groceries. its characters burst at the seams with color and charm, and their relationships with each other are vivid in a way i haven't seen outside of, y'know, books.

on that topic, the relationships themselves are remarkable. calling this game a dating simulator seems almost crass: Malcolm and the girls tease, they fight, they face real concerns and problems with each other that must be overcome. it's soulful in a way that ninety-nine percent of porn games aren't. Changeling Tale is about love before it's about sex, but in my opinion, the love makes the sex all the better.

and Changeling Tale is thoughtful about its love. Malcolm and the girls are young and lonely in their own ways, and so much of the writing is dedicated to untangling not only the fantastical knots but the very real ones: abandonment, self-loathing, duty. Malcolm spends more time worrying about the nature of his relationships and their future than he does worrying about the fact that his girlfriend has turned into a fish/wolf/cow.

the transformation, too, has had its due diligence: Changeling Tale lingers for a long, long time on what it means to be human through exploring this kink. the girls' changes are all at once unwelcome, terrifying, and liberating. how do you interact with society when you sprout fluffy ears and fur? is it better to run naked through the woods as your true self? can you still find love? are you even a person anymore? what an intensely strong core theme. it's like a BDSM story that's secretly about trust: it makes perfect sense, but you'd never expect it from a visual novel posted to F95.

i could go on and on about Changeling Tale's writing. to be totally honest, i broke one of my personal rules to write this: i haven't actually finished each girl's storyline yet, purely because i just had to tell you how goddamn good this story is. please play it. i can't do it any more justice in this already over-long review.

Okay, after following this project for several years I gathered my thoughts together after trying out interactions.

So I was huge fan of YL1 and what it brought to the table - realistic simulation which most games lacks or pays little to no attention. FVNE or YL2 solved many issues YL1 had, but it brought additional features/changes that actually repelled me from playing this 'app'.

I'll start from core points: Technical.
Inventing soft body and penetration system based on SDFs is tough and brave move, it actually brought realistic interactions and no such product in real-time entertainment currently can do similar things.
There also goes mesh blending which especially needed, since you can attach your own parts/meshes.
Hair/fur system. It's okay-ish getting fur in one click is fine, but managing fluff is pure pain in the ass, as well as controlling fur.
The same goes to painting, the whole system relies on 'masking' areas to paint/add fur, which is incredibly inconvenient and slow.

Style.
I think it was my biggest let down, because YL1 actually inspired me to start making games and overall 3D involvement. But style shift from semi-realistic to nearly toony and dumb-ish character styles, was not good decision imo. Character design looks more like mannequin with slight uncanny valley in it.
Even with "realistic" sliders on muzzles it just makes things worse. Which is a shame, because body anatomy and accuracy is just on another level, thanks to Dogson and brilliant body morphs.

Environment.
There's not 'playable' environment per-say, but lighting in some scenes overly dark or way too bright, and there are no settings to turn off annoying AO or Chromatic Aberration. Default scene for interactions has horrible default Unity lighting, but that's fixed on latest version.

Animation.
That's juicy part, but my feelings are still 50/50. On one hand it's copy paste interactions from YL1, on the other it's more advanced with huge leaning towards creators ala 'SFM' animations.
But who actually needs it? With same complexity you can rig any model yourself and animate it in Blender, the outcome will be somewhat better.
Yes, timeline system is neat and all, but still, there are a lot of limitations, and you will need to find compromises.

UI/UX
It's horrible. Period. The whole UI is menus under menus, and of course, you will need to invest good amount of time to understand what works and what doesn't.
I really hated YL1 UI I hoped they will change it in FVNE, but nah.
Gizmos. I lost my counts how many times I missclicked rotation, or bone points - everything thin and tiny. It worked incredibly well in YL1, what happened?

Entry threshold
Let's just say, it's pretty high for average user, you need to create your own character from scratch or use wonky and derpy template ones, read manual several times, create average animation. If you are pushy enough, create several anim events with cum event (woah).
Of course, cloud with characters or with upcoming cloud anims can solve this such high bar, but pretty sure 99% of it will be out of your taste.

Which actually leads to last questions: Who is this game made for?
At first, I thought it will fill the gap between SFM and Blender, but SFM has huge models library, advanced lighting and literally created for cinematic animations. Blender doesn't need any introduction - you can do whatever you want.
But can you change the lighting in FVNE? No. Can you add your own scenes? No. Can you add your own character or change the style to match own needs? No. Can you create complicated poses, outside of most classic ones? No.
So, in the end I have no idea who actually wants to create content in this 'app'. There are much more flexible options on the table.
As for fap-content, literally first page on e621 with tags 'animated' and 'order:score'.

P.S. Paywall drama
I get that everybody wants to see food on the table, but once it shows obvious signs of greed it repels many potential buyers and long-standing fans.
Bringing in new anti-piracy measures won't protect your game, it will just delay the inevitable. Because some people cracking games not because they actually want to play specific game.
You just don't underestimate how pirated games increases sales, because the easier to pirate specific games, the higher chance that end user will buy this product, because it's 'cool' and 'I want to thank developers for such great game'.

Just like the other review said, don't even bother with this. The game wasn't playtested in the slightest;
- You can't kill enemies, thus can't earn gold, thus can't pay off the debt
- You can't even see any scenes since passing days doesn't work
- The only other way to earn money is to collect and sell flowers, which would take hours to get enough to see any scenes.

This might be the worst NTR game on the site.

Im glad this crappy game is abandon by the dev, why the hell did he made the controls completely autistic?

how the hell am I ment to pass the next stage after I defeated the slime ( ? ), no way can you jump a far, nor climb the walls???

My god, no way can you jump on all 3 lanterns ( jesus how stupid )

Absolute stupid the dev is..

Great art, beautiful story: with so few scenes it manages to bring together drama, romance and eroticism. Momo and Nana make you feel (even after just a few well-structured dialogues), to get excited and horny at the same time. It's been a long time since I came across something so interesting.... I really hope it can get the sequel it deserves.

Too bad it is so short, I love it!

Very good, the dialogues, the relationship between the main characters, the story - everything is fine. There is no excessive concentration on minor characters, so everything looks very harmonious.
Good animations, Haley is very cute.

I could take the score off for the ending, but why?

Great game for a quick fap. The models might look a bit off for you if you dont prefer them big. I personally loved the milf. Coming to the story, theres nothing. The game gets straight to the porn. The best part of the game is the amount of branching present, scenes variation and you can even unlock multiple endings. Do give it a try if you want something casual to play

I really like this - the flexibility of the avatar as it changes, and how it reacts to said changes is very well done. I also think the number and quality of various events that occur during the game's branching paths are superb.

I think the biggest issue is how repetitive it can be, and how unoptimized the game is. Switching from one screen to the next can take some time - there are also little bugs here and there.

But overall the experience is enjoyable, and if your kinks line up with mine, you'll find this to be pretty enjoyable. Granted, many of the endings are not for me, and I don't quite like the sissy angle of things. But even though most other content is well done.

I think the game is also well advertised for what it is - it's not a sex/porn game, it's a transformation game and appeals to what it knows.

That being said I would like to see more sexual interactions between contestants/people. Whether that be with male protagonist and the other girls, or more events like what the gloryhole introduces.

I also think that patreon exclusivity is a little too much for my liking, and given the money this project makes, the pace of production could be a bit faster.

But it's a quality product - I especially enjoy the replayability - by the time Ive done my 2nd ending, I feel like I know all the characters, they are decently written and do have their own life to them!

From all of the "lose against an enemy and get porn" games there are here, this one is probably one of the best, even though that aspect is still kinda bad
Regardless, this game is pretty solid, the writing holds itself and the porn is plentiful, most of my gripes are with clunky movement at times due to RPGMaker and some bugs here and there (of which they did actually fix a lot of them along the way, which is pretty awesome) the bad endings (+ post game) could use some work since those are the ones you'll most likely want to get if you just want to see the chicks getting fucked, figuratively and literally and in a broader sense, it left me wanting a little more.
Overall, this one sits pretty much in the top of the dystopian setting games, a steady development and a clean structure, great work

great start to an interesting idea with a good selection of models and consistency in images. the basic premise of a plot has been established but the nature of the game leaves alot of options for development going forward

A very well written game overall.

An interesting story with a good world building - developing conflict between warring gangs, political intrigue, a strong and smart MC, but who is struggling mentally (although to much of a schizo for my liking), diverging paths (love or corruption, with which faction to gain respect and etc.) and likable and diverse girls.

Sex scenes are quite good, they are animated, but there is a lot of dialog and story telling in between them, so if you're looking for a quick relief and/or story overview does not interest you, this game might not be for you.

The only reason why I'm giving this 4/5 is that girls fall too easily for the MC and prologue has some awful jokes (and weird dialog overall), UI is pretty awful and some girl interactions seems uncanny.

As of reviewing, the version is v0.7.5.

This game fails on a technical level. There's noticeable delay between almost every action. It's to the point where, when you find the couple actions that are actually responsive, it feels weird. Each areas is a static background, an NPC and the MC; there should be no loading time. When you load into areas, your starting position doesn't make sense. The interact prompt for sleeping stays up while you're out of range. Your hitbox is disjoint, changes based on movement, and walls don't remove your slow to change momentum, so you do a weird stutter if you turn around after pushing against the edge of the screen. Sometimes you sink into the floor a little bit and you lose your walking animation. If you hold forward through an area transition you won't start moving. The dialogue system is inconsistent. Sometimes you can advance immediately by pressing 'e'. Sometimes you have to wait first. Sometimes advance is automatic. One time you have to start moving to close the dialogue. Sometimes dialogue choices are horizontally arranged. Other times it's vertical. You can't wrap around a list of options by inputting towards the edge. One time going down options was delayed by about half a second while going up options was instant. The text isn't given proper padding in the text bubbles. Font size is inconsistent. Your score in the practices can go to 10, but it's only capable of displaying a single digit, so it looks like a zero. The rickroll doesn't even work because YouTube doesn't support nw.js (or maybe just the version), and why aren't we just opening it in the default browser?

This game fails on a design level. The main and pause menus are controlled only by the mouse, while the game is controlled only by the arrow keys, 'q', and 'e'. Why would the dev pick 'q' and 'e' instead of 'z' and 'x' when they don't allow wasd? I have no idea. The very same actions appear in both practices and games, but they're given different inputs. The practices are obnoxiously slow for no reason. It's a reaction game where you have to choose the right reaction within a limited time. The challenge is in picking the right reaction. There's no reason to have three seconds of dead time while you wait for the next check to show up. The MC accelerates like this is Mario, when the gameplay consists of holding a single direction to get to the next interactable. There's an area you have to walk through every single day, where the only time it's used is a single dialogue on the very first day. I still don't understand how the mechanics of the games work, despite there being a text tutorial explaining it, and having won games. I just spam 'q' the entire time. I can't tell if you're supposed try to lewd the MC or roleplay as the MC. I tried roleplay at first, and you get some progress, but a lot of the content is locked behind intentionally picking lewd options that don't make sense, and the MC has too much characterization for you to really do that (e.g. the romance with Gena is just sort of a given). None of your choices ever have consequences outside the immediate scene. There's an options menu where the only meaningful option is to disable the music entirely.

The English is bad: both the grammar and the word choice. The writing is contrived.

You don't need me to tell you the art is bad, and to be honest I don't care very much, but it isn't helping. Aside from it being bad, it isn't even consistent. Sometimes the style seems to be no shading. Sometimes there's an obvious gradient effect. Sometimes there's perfectly shaded ellipsoids making up a cloud. Sometimes there's hard boundaries between shades. Sometimes there's a black outline on everything. Sometimes there's a colored outline. Sometimes there's no outline. Sometimes there's perspective. Sometimes there isn't.
