This game definitly needs a machete xD Theres no weapon more appropiate for somebody who returned from the dead.

And painbringer, assrammer, rectumskewer… they all have a name.

Guys, please stop with those names :stuck_out_tongue:

@Cecilia_Rosewood & @UmbraLamia
Well, I just did the basics like everyone else has in their games (from what I saw, at least.
I don’t necessarily need it, just saying. If you guys prefer to play the game without Orientation, then I can do that as well, I don’t mind doing that.

What do the others think ?

No idea, you’d have to ask The Others. :grin:

Me, I’m with @Cecilia_Rosewood and @UmbraLamia, but I am fine with whatever works best for you.

I’m with the other three. Let the ROs flirt with their orientation regardless whether the MC is into them or not. But if it’s easier to do it the other way then that’s your choice.

I prefer to not have an NPC constantly flirting with my character if he is not attracted to them. Its become boring very fast.
I dont think doing orientantion will affect their games, the NPC will continue to flirt with their character, but not having orientantion in my game will be a downside to me.

I’m sure that if you turn them down once they won’t try again, though. But I understand you position too. :relaxed:

Also on the let ā€œlet them flirt as long as they aren’t turned downā€ boat.

Not much difference to a character that may meets the gender requirement but annoys the player nonetheless whith flirting, because the player just doesn’t like the character.

I’d say let the characters flirt with the MC if they’re attracted to their gender.
I’ve always liked the few CoG that have scenes of this type, like in choice of robots, if you marry a character of the same gender, the game tells you that you and your couple are worried because you didn’t come out to all of your relatives, and that some of them didn’t come to the wedding for you being gay, but most of them accepted it.
It’s a nice touch that makes the game feel more realistic.
If it would bother someone just give the option to turn them down, like @Taylor_Enean said.

I wonder, how many woman romance will this game have? I know Vyne is one, but there still 3 guys vs one woman.
And I wonder if the RO will have set sexuality, since Stray appears to be gay. Can you @Nekumura tell us the orientantion of Nero, Troy and Vyne?

There is supposed to be more than Vine. In the next chapter, there will be a new character that will also be able for RO.

Then we would have 2/3 for the Girls, and just one missing. We’ll see if I make it 3/3 or if I will leave it at that.

Troy, Nero and Vine are all for the guys as well as for the Girls.

Awww, thank you very much! :slightly_smiling:
Sadly, I have no idea when it is going to be completed… I had no time to write even one bit last week and this week (cries)
Though I want to finish it this year. No idea if I can make it in that time… but it is my goal ^^

Don’t beat yourself up over not writing anything last week (and in general). :slight_smile:
Just like every author on this site, sometimes stuff happens and you don’t get to write as much as you want to and that’s fine. I think you have written a cool game so far, and I’m looking forward to it but I can wait. Just take the time you need. ^^

Regarding the discussion about NPC flirting. I agree with the people, about letting the RO’s flirt with the MC (if it’s in character for them). And then the MC can flirt back or politely decline etc. It makes the NPC’s more 3D.
It would also take away the whole ā€œthe MC is the only one who can instigate the romanceā€, which sometimes force you to flirt with a RO because if you don’t the romance is locked. :confused: To me it often feels very aggressive and ooc for the MC I’m playing. It’s something that usually makes me really uncomfortable. It’s the same with railroaded romances in RPG.
