VN Ren'Py Eruption Imminent [v0.5.1] [MorriganRae]

But that's pretty close to what happens, she grabs it and says she not gonna blow Ashe but she gets "points for boldness though".
I think overall is an acceptable timid first step towards Ashe becoming more assertive, after all it's been less than 3 days since she had that dream/revelation about what she wants to be. It's slow but it's not as tragic as some are making it seem.

I’m referring to how Ashe holds it out, not boldly. She’s not full on presenting it. shes holding it quite shyly.

The point being, this could have gone to show she’s growing out of her shell. Not like now, where she then timidly retreats again. I’d like to see some emotions go along with that.

I want to see the boldness, not just other characters labelling it such.

So in my version she‘d still pull out her dick, but she‘d hold it out hips thrusted forward. Only to then have Vanessa grab it tug it a little and then tell Ashe with a smirk on her face that she gets points for boldness. But hasn’t earned enough for a blowjob just yet. Then We can have Ashe either turn back to her more timid self or perhaps a little more flustered than timid.

It’s a small change that would emphasise the difference between Kitten and Siren. Showing that Ashe is being intentional, but not experienced. She might copy Natasha’s gym pose, but she’s not as arrogant (and rapey) as she is and has even less experience.

I truly like this game but I'm seriously not a fan of the whole blackmail thing. I genuinely hate anything to do with blackmail whether it's perpetrated by the main character of it's towards the main character. If I was given the chance ingame I'd have refused anything to do with Blackmail. I refused to do anything with the cop, like being a maid, and I'd have chosen the NO option at every prompt when messaging the blackmailer.

Let's hope this gets resolved the next update. I don't mind drama but I just hate situations like these.

overall I kind of neutral on the whole concept of blackmail in games not my favorite thing but not gonna hate it automatically until I see how it plays it. However after this last update first time I can say I came across blackmail and actually hated it in a game. To me it's handled poorly almost ruined a date with my favorite girl. At least the other games ive played that has blackmail tries to do something about it while Ashe has the option to not listen entirely to the blackmailer doesn't feel she is even trying to do anything to try to stop it and just going with the flow.

I'm at the point even if it might be bad writing as it be to obvious I hope Delliah is found out to be the blackmailer in the next update. So we can move on and wash our hands of that storyline.

It's unfortunate, as I hoped that on the Siren path we would get options to 'play' the Blackmailer. Try to figure out who they are and what they want. Only playing along, not actually doing anything the blackmailer demands. But alas.

Great update. I think complaints about the three route system wouldn't be as prevalent if they were just unlabelled soft-routes. The fact that they're labelled and defined is causing people to over-analyse, IMO. That being said, can't comment on any inconsistency with the CQ route because I have no interest in playing it.

The fact that they're labelled and defined is causing people to over-analyse, IMO. That being said, can't comment on any inconsistency with the CQ route because I have no interest in playing it.

"Unlabelled soft-routes" is just another name for the system we had before. Most scenes that had variations were already about some degree of Ashe being more dominant, or more submissive, or voyeur/cuck. The problem is that they changed from "unlabelled soft-routes" to "pick red, green or blue to decide what flavor you're gonna get for the rest of the game".

Losing the ability to mix and match different dynamics with different characters is the main loss from the change of systems, but it also generally sucks for the feeling of tailoring Ashe's character with your choices. They don't matter for that anymore, you already locked in on either Siren/Kitten/Cuckqueen and no other choice you make going forward can change that.

But aside from those design problems, it also causes the issue you mention that now a lot of people will complain that Ashe isn't "dominant enough" in their siren route. It creates expectations that don't match the story the dev is telling, I'm really struggling to see any benefits to the adoption of this route-split with how it was done and how the game is being developed.

But outside of me thinking the route split is a terrible game design choice, I do agree that the update was really good. The story is as well written as always.

 

[xeivous]

I think the route split was a decent idea, it's just that there isn't quite enough of a feeling that there's a change brewing and Ashe will be headed in different directions in how she reacts to events going forward. Though I only played siren route and have been reading about the other two routes, I think that the update starts to falter during the date with Vanessa being under the shadow of the blackmailer and then sorta trips over it's own dick with Fiona. If Ashe ending that with riding Fiona was unique to the siren route and her pulling that off and letting Fiona be the one getting plastered with cum was commented on by Fiona, I think that there might be less complaints. Maybe have Ashe be a bit more assertive when it comes to defining her relationship with Fiona.

Still, I suppose this can be chalked up to a bit of realism in that people don't really change that fast and the Lexi encounter was a pretty solid one for all routes from what I've heard. I think that the real determiner of how well the route split is going will be the upcoming party. As it sounds like a big enough event to really showcase what Ashe is going to be about for a route.

 

[Mareares]

Certainly, Natasha is the character that is spoiling the whole storyline for me personally. She is becoming a pivotal point within the game moving forward...she gives me the heebie-jeebies actually...nothing sexy going on there at all.

What about the psycho who is blackmailing all the time aka Delilah. For me nothing sexy there too. Also the dreams takes too much space in the game, I mean the dev really love dreams

 

[Mareares]

IMO this game has good things on it, good models, good MC, nice pacing in the incest route, nice pacing with her best friend but lacks a lot of other things like choices for the players, some love interests are forced by the dev, the blackmail is forced by the dev, the Natasha character is forced by the dev. Please give the players more freedom! I mean come on sometimes I think I´m playing a kynetic novel.

none of that is true but okay

I said good and bad things about the game and your answer is none of them are true lol

 

[fez16]

I mean only one LI is "forced" and that is mostly just for character development, and she is rly more of an optional side girl after her scene. And past the first 1-2 episodes there actually are quite a few choices. The branching isn't super crazy but to call it close to kinetic is insane.

Also you can just choose siren and tell Natasha to fuck off if you want lol. I had 0 Natasha content in my playthru (unless the gym scene where she harasses ashe counts).

 

[Braga96]

The dev seems to default to the “kitten” route and then tries to add flavour to the CQ and Siren routes. The distinction is very clear if you compare the scenes with the Lexi seen, which has no kitten option. But even there the dialogue shifts around in a way that doesn’t read entirely CQ or Siren depending on your choice.

The kitten path seems like the default route because her personality in it most resembles her pre-patch choice personality

 

[Biscuitcurves]

Well you would assume in the siren path you would overpower the blackmailer whoever it may be and show your dominanice. Im not entirely sure how the cuckquean route would play into it and the kitten route is just having Ashe do what the blackmailer wants.

It seems like the date with Vanessa gives a hint as to how dealing with the blackmailer will play out. When she mentions her interest in martial arts MC gives 3 responses dom - id like you to teach me - sub - you can protect me - CQ - id like to watch you beat someone up - seems to me this is how the confrontation of the blackmailer will play out and given Vanessa's position it seems logical Vanessa would know be able to find out if she is being followed or watched weather or not MC decides to tell her.

Not going to lie, if this ends up with Vanessa taking care of the blackmailer, I think that would leave a sour taste with a lot of people. I only just now realized that this is a pretty real possibility given that Vanessa has a lot of connections and doesn't seem to be the type of person to let it slide if she finds out that she was spied on during their date.

The main issue with if she takes care of it is that players are generally already pretty fucking annoyed with the blackmailer and wants to take care of it, and there's also the reoccurring issue where it feels like Ashe lacks agency, so if this does end up getting fixed by Vanessa, it would likely feel like Ashe is just taking another L as it wouldn't be a cathartic resolution to an arc that a lot of people have hated thus far.

As said, I didn't even think of this possibility until now, and given that we know the dev tends to do whatever they want, bit worried about it at this point honestly.

Yea I haven't read through or skimmed through a lot of it tbh I'm waiting for more content to give the story a proper go so I can't really comment on the story but it seems logical to me that Vanessa would have something to do with the stalker if it affects her. I would guess on dom path MC will take care of it herself but on sub/CQ path you will rely on Vanessa but only devs know right now.

This is actually something I was hoping for since the last update or at least for her to help with it . Like during the date I would of loved the option to fill her in and ask for help as our favor. But also I would also love for the option to not ask for help and have some actual branching and have another way to deal with the blackmailer in another way without Vanessa.

 

[SeveralGeese]

I wasnt sure about this game at first, but I really came around on it. Good models, interesting characters, decent enough plot, manages to cover delicate topics respectfully.
maybe a bit low on choices- I got a bit annoyed at the number of times the game sets itself up for a player choice and then goes "nah, nevermind." almost always with disastrous effects for the main character.
but, most importantly, the game is hot. Looking forward to where they go next!
