VN Ren'Py Light of My Life [Ch. 1-7 v1.0.0] [Naughty Road]

[jamdan]

It's free because it's released for free, you don't have to donate (or pay) to get the game. Anyone that donates do so because they feel like it.

Besides that... I mean yeah. Your comment (and account) came out of the blue to rehash the same old arguments this thread has had for years.

Giving some benefit of a doubt... do some basic research before making ignorant comments (your first one even). The weekly progress reports are always posted on Discord, and sometimes in the thread. The dev literally posted on the previous page too.

Isn't the game already finished?

No.

Could someone please answer these and refrain from petty comments and use logic. The reply I received makes no sense. On one hand it says no one ever pays a penny for the game but then he goes on to talk about what people pay. My question is this game really being developed because it seems to being taking years and years to make it and it is just a porn game. I fail to see any sort of amazing high quality or unique never before done coding. It is just some images and dirty talk to get people off. Why turn this into some sort of life's work.

The reply you received made perfect sense. Your failure to understand it is on you. If you don't think the game is worth donating to, don't donate. No one has to, and the game is free. What others do with their own money is none of your business. If I choose to throw $20 per month in the street, then that is my choice, and affects you not at all (unless you're in the street and have a chance to grab that $20...)

In short, you are making a brainless complaint about things that have no bearing on anything in your life. If you piss into the wind, don't blame others when you get wet.

"Use Logic?" You are a user on a PORN GAME website with the name longandhard arguing and wondering why people donate to creator of a porn game, which is more Visual Novel than most, with great characters and a wonderful story. .WTF are you here for?

 

[naughtyroad]

LOL, some people. "Why should actual work take actual time? Please use logic and make sense."

I mean, it seems an utterly silly question for any who's spent any time living in, well... reality, really. But it's an interesting one if you think about it. Maybe something about the second law of thermodynamics, and how it suggests the arrow of time pointing in one direction? Or about not living in relativistic conditions meaning that time dilatation is never really noticeable enough to have thousands of hours pass by in the blink of an eye for an outside observer?

I watch all YouTube videos at 1.5x and listen to all audiobooks at 2.0x (or faster). Perhaps you should learn how to work at the same speeds. I mean, come on, life is too short and we all need to be entertained now. NOW, dammit.

Shh, don't tell the trolls it's actually a trick. He works so fast, the game is fully complete. Naughtyroad just releases the updates every year or so.

Whoops,. gave the secret away.

As long as you don't reveal that in episode 25 Denise discovers she's a clone of Brooke while Macy finally embraces her true nature as a succubus summoned by the coven, we should be fine.

Hm.
Well don't mind me, I'll just sit in a corner here, listening.

It appears I asked for too much. I only asked because I am very new to this site and even to this type of site in general and found it rather strange after play a number of these games that I cannot understand how it can take so long. As I stated it is a porn game and not a grand thesis on life but it appears that many here cannot handle questions so I will just back to being a viewer.

 

[Shawdawg]

We answered the question as best we could. You just didn't like our answers.

Another good reason the updates take so long, NaughtyRoad doesn't dime bag the game with tiny updates, we get the whole ounce. Lots of other games release an update every month or three and know what happens, at best 20, 30 max minutes of content. So in 12 months, other games release as much content in FOUR updates, and this game needs one.

It's you who cannot handle the answers IMO.

Next time, you might want to read the OP before asking. In this case it says

"Also, time between updates is long, but updates are huge."

The game is also free, so your remark about it being crazy that people pay for it for five years is off the mark, and insinuates that the dev is a "milker" to boot.
If you barge in on a thread uninformed making baseless assumptions, expect some flak.

Again with the condescending tone dude, what the fuck...

You come here, your first message is basically "why are you all morons and suckers ?" and as soon as people give you answers that reflect the tone and content of your message while still answering your original questions, you act like a karen.

So I'll sum everything up for you in a few bullet points, as nice as I can so we can all move on:

1 - This isn't gonzo porn, it's an AVN. We come for the fucking, we stay for the story and characters (and the promise of more fucking ngl).
2 - We all collectively understand that any type of creative work takes time and we are willing to wait as long as we need to get to the end of a story we enjoyed, we consider it being rewarded for our patience. (and holy shit you don't realise how lucky we are that naughtyroad has the weekly updated roadmap on discord).
3 - The "pay what you want" pricing model is not that hard to understand really. Wanna pay nothing ? Here it is for free. Wanna pay something to thank the creator ? Pay what you want. That's all it is.
4 - If people want to support naughtyroad via Patreon, we do not care since it has 0 impact on our life (and 0 impact on yours as well).
5 - You really sound like a condescending judgemental out of touch dick. I don't know if that was your intention but that's how you came off, hence the tone of the overall answers.
6 - If you don't want to wait, I recommend using the search engine on the site and looking for "completed" games. There are plenty.

I hope you find the right games for you, and wish you a good day.

Funny you should mention that moment, because for other people that were also on her path, that moment played out a little differently, as well as the moments with Zarah and Sierra (if on their paths), while not affecting the end outcome.

I definitely recommend for anyone who doesn't actually strongly dislike the side characters to stay on their paths, there's no negative consequences to it, and it adds in quite a bit of content players'd otherwise miss.

Oh. Oops...

 

[SuddenImp]

Oh. Oops...

Well, now you gotta have another playthrough, I'd consider that a positive.

 

[Razeluxe]

Just started chapter 3. Man. This'd be a pretty poignant story if it weren't about fucking your daughters. Nice job.

 

[AssaultGoblin]

No recent Android port with mods? Are the girls too ugly for the modders? Personally I think they look cute and unique

Will try it out

If you are trying it on Pc or mac don't use the mods. They break the game since they havent been updated in a long time. Plus the choices they encourage you to make are not the best. Frankly you don't need mods to play the game. The choices that are keeping you out of a path are clearly labeled and you wont miss a scene unless you try really hard to.

If you are trying it on Android, the port is an official one with a lot of work going in it to make sure the game is as compressed as possible without loss of quality so the compression rate varies across the bord, with it being more compressed when the renders support it more. So while I don't play on Android I bet you will have a great experience.

And the girls are gorgeous.

I'd say it is actually. You just can't show/talk about it to anyone, but it doesn't take away from the writing.
