VN Ren'Py Harem Hotel [v0.18.2] [Runey]

[Runey]

A story does not need to actually successfully free elves to be about freeing the elves.
Especially if the story is not yet complete.

And all the storylines seem to converge into the elf liberation movement
You should try replaying your own game from the beginning. There is drastic tonal shift that occurred over the years of development, and towards the end all you seem to be doing with all the characters is pursuing Social Justice. Game also got a lot darker

It is even lampshaded by some of the characters explicitly pointing out how Lin did a 180 from her "go away and stop bothering me, I love being a slave to Master" to "must join the fight to end slavery"

So of the 8 main girls, 5 got their story taken over by elf liberation

You aren't being so subtle about your political biases, are you?

Harem Hotel isn't a power tripping fantasy fuckathon game, it has a more serious story. Each character has their own theme, and many of them do involve elves. If being nice to them and wanting they have a better life is SJW elf liberation shit to you, well I didn't make this game for you.

Runey, you know you've written pure gold when the userbase starts talking about the lore/story with the same fervor as Star Wars, Star Trek, Game of Thrones or Marvel fans, digging into deeper meanings about every little thing, discussing this or that's character's dialogue/actions in xyz context...

Good Job! ever thought about professional writing?

Thanks Yeah, I'd like to write more professionally in the future.

er body is looking like a teenager's body

My dude, have you ever seen a teenager? That's not what you think of when you think of a teenager...do you?

 

[WigglyWorld84]

Good Job! ever thought about professional writing?

Well, he IS making money off his writing.

It's more of a feat for someone to go out and just do it on their own, in my opinion.

(Not trying to nit-pick; I do agree with your sentiment!)

I feel for you on this one.
I spend time replying to comments on civil war you tube videos, and I hear that social justice warrior crap all of the time from people who try to claim that the blacks were better off as slaves.

That and "woke", If woke means opening my mind up to new ideas, and learning the truth through researching all of the facts, then I am guilty as charged.
A closed mind is a terrible thing, and it ultimately leads to complete stupidity.

First you claim it does not exist, then when explicit examples are given of it existing you switch gears into personal attack.
A pattern I have seen you repeatedly do over the past few days with multiple people.

If being nice to them and wanting they have a better life is SJW elf liberation shit to you

1. you are mixing up different posters. I am the one who replied to you when you feigned utter and total ignorance about the existence of elf liberation in your game.
Not the initial posters who told you they are tired of it. I actually never specified that I am tired of it, just that there was a tonal shift.

2. You are literally the only one who said "SJW elf liberation shit".

That being said, i am a bit sad about the trajectory of the plot lately. The whole freeing the elves stuff does nothing for me.

And all the storylines seem to converge into the elf liberation movement

neither of us said "elf liberation shit", you did. This is called a strawman
You are blatantly lying about what my post said to paint me into some sort of "enemy".
While combining multiple logical fallacies of strawman, ad hominem, appeal to absurdity, virtue signaling, appeal to ridicule, no true scotsman, and probably several more. I am genuinely impressed at just how many logical fallacies you can cram together in a singular post.

Why are you so thin skinned about it?
What compels you to pick fights with multiple different posters every day and try to twist their words into some sort of villainy?
What compels you to try and hide the contents of your creation?

Holy shit, wtf. Dude has lost it

Let's try to get things back on track and enjoyable...

Question
What would you guys like to see focused on in v0.16?

 

[nijam66]

I don't understand what you mean when you say "freeing the elves stuff". Do you mean Nia's storyline? She doesn't free slaves, she gives them to better masters. Or are you talking about Lin's storyline? No elves have been freed there either. It's actually not very possible with how the systems work.

In any case, those are just 2 out of the 18 characters with storylines.

First off: sorry for spawning this overblown controversy in the comments, still love the game and appreciate all your hard work.

Yes i was referring to those two storylines. Lins story kind of feels like the "main" story at least for me. And with this little resistance outpost in the back, the main character kind of acts the opposite of what i would have done in that setting.

But i think my question about player choice was implicitly answered.

And guys let's chill out.

Question
What would you guys like to see focused on in v0.16?

Yes, let's.

Anywho, what would we like to see focused on in V.16?
I think off the top of my head and in no certain order:
- More Jia, Ann and Peni, while I know they'll never be on par with the main girls in terms of content, drips and drabs of content for them almost feels like that scene from the Simpsons where Homer is taunting the dolphin with the hot dog. Even just something in other parts of the hotel like the hot spring or the bathroom during the evening.
- The Elves and their extinction storyline is important, especially with the revelation in V.15, but it's also reaching a point where its going to overwhelm the secondary plots and they'll potentially get lost in revolution and change. Maybe continue a couple of secondary story threads, such as Ashley's search for her nanny, or the twins' father being a tweaker (or whatever the term is, I'm not down with the kids' terminology these days).
- While Maria learning to become more assertive and looking to defend herself, it also feels like it some near point in the story, she's going to need that quiet moment to process everything, even just the MC spooning her and talking to her.
- More Moon. Always more Moon. Even a story full of Moon. (hehe)

Probably more, but that's just off the top of my head for the moment.

 

[Rutonat]

Alright. Finally finished v0.14.1 and now I notice there's already an update.
So first off, fuck.

Second. Holy crap, Runey, stop playing with our feels so much, some people will end up vomiting with that rollercoaster.

Aside from Autumn, I don't think there's a single character (in the main + side girls) I don't like. And for her, it's just because I've never been too fond of heavy religious undertones, and with how much she talks about her religion, I can't help but roll my eyes.
But that's just me. It doesn't mean it's badly written or anything.
Ashley's still my favorite though.

And holy bejeebus, Hana's god damn adorable. I'm gonna regret she's not a main girl, I think.

Thank you for this gem. I had tried it some years back when it was still quite young, stumbled upon it here, and I don't regret for a second downloading it again.
Also there's a few character I wouldn't hate to see ran over by a bus. And a lot of the society burned to the ground.
And for some reason I kinda saw Maria's plot twist coming when she started wanting to look for her parents, but it didn't make it hurt less.

spoon talking. I'd like that. def more with our elves.
I'd like to see Nia take Maria out on a low risk trial run to see if she'll work out or not.
I'd like to see more of ashleys story, see if her old caretaker (her name skips my mind at the moment) is ok or not. i'm still betting on that she is the head hancho of the whole operation now.
more of our android, curious to see where that is going, as well as our pseudo child together.
more of the clones daddy issues. im a sucker for that...
im happy with jins content we got a lot last patch.
more god lore with autumn would be cool. I like the mythology.
and i feel like we missed out on something without one big story plot to really get into. it was more dished out in 15 then 14.

Hana is adorable. fills that shy girl niche. not as well as Juliet could but still.

I want some Juliet runey...
