Help?!

Hello there. I've recently hit a AVN slump, so to speak.

What I mean by this is, I've been trying to play as many AVN as I can, but for one reason or another I end up dropping them (my GSL library is more dropped then played), I'm somewhat picky when it comes to these games, I don't play them for the sake of playing, I want to be emerged and have either the since my choices matter in the game or that the sorry is so good I don't mind being led to wherever.

In conclusion, I want to know if you've experienced anything similar and what can I do to go over it and enjoy these games again.

Betrayal surprised me

I started playing Betrayal expecting just another generic suspense AVN, but the game honestly surprised me a lot, especially considering it’s still early in development.

The atmosphere and immersion are easily some of the strongest parts. The game keeps this constant tension almost all the time, and the music helps a lot with that. The soundtrack fits the heavy tone of the story perfectly, and the sound effects make several scenes feel way more impactful and cinematic.

>!The story hooked me pretty fast too. Vincent, Ashley, and Laura have a really good dynamic filled with distrust, trauma, and hidden secrets. Vincent especially is a very interesting MC because he slowly starts recovering fragmented memories from his childhood, and it heavily feels like his entire life may have been manipulated somehow, with parts of his memories erased or hidden from him. That makes the mystery a lot more engaging because you start realizing alongside him that maybe nothing about his past is actually what he believed it was.!<

>!Another thing I liked is how subtle and natural the romance feels. It doesn’t feel forced at all. And honestly, even though there are still no sex scenes, that really doesn’t feel like a problem. The main characters are literally contract killers living in a world full of paranoia, violence, and emotional baggage, so the bigger focus on suspense, storytelling, and character development works much better.!<

The visuals are also really good for an indie project still in early development. The backgrounds look great, the characters have solid expressions, and some scenes genuinely feel cinematic.

Overall, the game feels way more focused on building an actual story, interesting characters and that ended up pulling me in way more than I expected.

WHAT A GAME!

This is the kind of romance story I’ve been looking for. The writing is so good and all the LIs are top tier, makes it hard af to choose lol.

My top 3 gotta be

Michelle — bro I genuinely love her, every moment with the MC is sweet af

Kimberly — same here, her chemistry with the MC is just too good

Alessa — ngl she’s dangerous 😭 she’s the MC’s ex but their moments together always got me smiling. Problem is she’s Michelle’s sister so messing with both is risky af lol

That’s probably my top 3.

Keyla kinda confused me tho. She said she wanted to stay pure for the MC, then ended up dating the MC’s best friend and even married him while still loving the MC .

And honestly I don’t really like the MC’s best friend either. Bro already had Keyla as his wife and still went after other girls. Man just pisses me off lol.

We seriously gotta support the dev more so he can focus on this game even harder. This game has HUGE potential fr. The LIs are genuinely amazing. Support :https://www.patreon.com/cw/CHAQUINN0

And if anyone knows when the next update is coming… let me know..

Choose my next play

I’m wrapping up my first AVN with Being a DIK. Looking ahead to see what I should jump into next. I have few that I can’t really decide between so I figured I’d let y’all choose for me.

The list I’ve been deciding between:
•Race of Life
•Chasing Sunsets
•Leaving DNA
•STWA: Unbroken
•Law School
•Acting Lessons

Feel free to recommend other titles as well if there’s others I should consider that’s not on the list. Thanks in advance!

I LOVED this game so much!!! Sadie is my fave character in an AVN 💜 | Returning to Mia

I loved Returning to Mia so much - to the point I replayed it multiple times, got all the achievements and unlocked every single scene.

I did a blind playthrough the first time through, as I do with all AVN's I play for the first time, and although I genuinely LOVE Sadie's character and traits, I ended up going with Mia on the first path purely for the reminisce and connections they built over the course of the story which made sense to the MC to rekindle the flame etc.

However, the trauma of seeing what this eventually did to Sadie was so damn heartbroking I honestly felt that it gut punched me into an emotional oblivion.

I've NEVER had that feeling after playing any game or experiencing a movie/TV show, let alone an AVN. I felt like a massive POS for doing that to her given she was always so loyal, supportive, trying to be at her sexiest and pleasing the MC, kind and genuinely caring in every possible way throughout the whole story.

I had to correct it (and undo the genuine emotional trauma!) by doing a purely loyal playthrough to Sadie, and some of the final chapter/epilogue scenes are some of the most emotional and compelling scenes I have ever felt playing an AVN.

Beautiful, touching and a genuine journey from where I was at the beginning of the game to how it ended with her.

Also to the point where I was welling up and felt this was the path that the Devs truly wanted the romance choices to lead, especially given there was so many intricate details that solidified the MC and Sadie in the final scenes of dialogue and life path. Even where it felt like it was a 'learning' to be with Mia until that point and find maturity and true affection within Sadie in the end and settle with eternal happiness.

Anyway, I'm really suffering with post-game depression after this 🤣 it really hit me how powerful some of the writing in these games can be.

Yes we are mostly here for the 'scenes' but the way these characters can come to life from the screen with how good the writing can be is massively underrated, and this is the first time I have felt I got so much emotional investment from a game.

Essay over... I also wanted to share my love for Sadie and share an AI render of her, or at least what AI believes she would look like if she were a real person outside of the RTM World.

Looking forward to the next one the devs will hit out the park (I've heard she may be coming back in the next resort based game coming out this year?! 👀) but I just wanted to share some Sadie love and also how much I loved this game 💜

Did Evelyn cheat on Harry, or is it a misdirection?[Photo Hunt]

&#x200B;

I started playing the game again, and a man named Fred appeared. He is Harry’s father. On Fiona’s path, there’s a scene that feels like a dream sequence involving the MC, where the woman says something like, “What we’re doing right now is wrong.” When the MC sees them, they feel very familiar to him, and Skylar says, “I wonder why?You’re right, the ending should be like this:

Looking for a rich MC

As basic as this concept seems, I am still surprised at how rare it is. An MC who doesn't mind spending thousands of dollars on a day out, barely to impress anyone, just because he has it and it's barely anything to him. It's such a simple concept but there's so much that can be done with this... and yet I just almost never see it, and I find it strange.

New Update Just Dropped… and Things Got Way Too Steamy (Indecent Desires) [Vilelab]

u/Miss-Wonderland — 21 hours ago

Frustrated with the ending of Intertwined's new chapter (obvious spoilers)

I was finally able to catch up my various playthroughs to the new content and for the most part enjoyed the changes but there were two parts that really bother me a lot.

1st of all I found it incredibly strange that the "fantasy" that Melissa has at the end of .14 turns out to be real and the player was never given the chance to opt out of it or not. Just because I flirted occasionally with Melissa or was kind to her doesn't mean I would have chosen to cheat on whoever I was with and mess up the friendship with Erynn. I have plenty of heart points with Emily as well but I'd also never make MC fuck his mom. It just seemed like a weird choice for what was supposed to be innocent flirting with your moms best friend to turn into a real hook up, especially with everything else going on in the story at that time. MC can be dumb sometimes but still would have liked the choice to stop it in its tracks.

2nd, I'm royally pissed off at Nyx for some lazy and rushed writing on the Ethan arc. On more than one occasion Erynn or some one else says something along the lines of "ethan's an ass but he's not stupid" only for him to end up pulling a gun on John and doing something incredibly stupid. I don't know if they had originally planned something else for the arc and wanted to cut it short to free up Erynn for real romancing or something but turn of events seems out of character for Ethan. What could he have possibly seen as a good outcome or getting Erynn to do what he wanted after this? I thought he was going to play the magnanimous card and reunite Erynn with John like he was a hero or something but instead we get a weird violent power trip like that is going to solve all his problems. And yes I know he gets rough with Val if she helped you that one time in the alley and being a cunt isn't out of character for him but if he was able to put together the network he has now he would have been smart enough to know that showing up to the garage to try and intimidate John wouldn't get him anywhere and he would have been better off setting a trap for him instead when he sets up the escorting with Erynn. The whole thing feels incredibly rushed and out of place, especially if you aren't on Vals path and see the other stuff that Ethan does.

I'm also just fed up with cliffhangers inbetween AVN chapters as a whole because they don't always work out well once everything is released and just seem like random extra drama. Like when Erynn doesn't answer her phone and you see the dead body in the dumpster might have been a good cliffhanger at the time but now the very next scene is Melissa calling to tell you she's fine and it feels very forced for the sake of forcing drama. This cliffhanger with the gunshot is causing me zero anxiousness because I know the first few lines of the next update are going to show us everyone is fine. My guess is the shot missed Iris as she charged at Ethan and MC walks in with her smacking him with the wrench or maybe we will get lucky and Zach will be shot and he'll survive but stop being a douchecunt. Anyways if I'm already 15 chapters into a story I don't need ANOTHER cliff hanger to keep me engaged, I'll still read the next chapter even if this one ends with MC snuggled up next to your LI of choice with a contented smile on his face and no extra unnecessary drama.

Anyways TLDR not getting the option to opt out of Melissa is dumb and Ethan's ending feels like a lazy rushed hack job but the rest of the update was great. The end.

edit to add I just wish the Ethan situation was closed up based off something that MC or the group did and not just handed an easy out and while yes MC did get John involved so he escalated it, it would have been better if they recorded him doing something shady to take him down or something.
