discussion adjustable / selectable age

[GockGaming]

Sometimes I cant tell what I should set it too.
Its an annoying workaround so the developers can upload to certain sites

Only works if the artwork and storyline intended adjustment to that certain age range. otherwise pointless as it doesnt make sense story and visual rise. Really see this as a work around to cater for that specific audience.

My vote is when all options are equal and fleshed out properly, more options is the better choice. Even if its things i wont personally use, or need.

I think it is a clever way of getting around censorship, but if the author can just say the character's age I prefer it. It bothers me when I don't know the canon age or put in a value only to find out later in the game it doesn't make any sense.

That really sums it up for me also.

I just leave it at default, if there is no default option I usually go for 35-45 depending on context of game. But honestly I just see it as useless option, unless there are alternative renders for game which I haven's seen yet.

Myth: This is a clever way to getting around censorship.

Fact: Nope. Doing this will jeopardize your game and your dev status. Petal Among Thorns is the perfect example of this.

No, don't blame the dev for doing it. Blame BastardCard and Vishit for that.

Apo****** not that it really mattered as the game isn't finished yet. I do like that as an option though.

its abandoned, or did I miss something?

If you can adjust the age it goes on the list, thx

Agreed 100%

I personally wouldn't be surprised if games WITH adjustable ages start getting in trouble unless ages have to be > 18.

I'm not sure I can't find any information anywhere as the patreon was shut down. It does have an option to adjust ages (indirectly) so depending on MC age.

This is first heard for me about this. I've played the first and second games. 3rd wasn't out yet... but I believe it is now.... just haven't gone back to look. I'll do a search in a moment, but if there is a thread about this, let me know. (Going to check those specific games forums first.) Thanks for your post.

Edit: I've been reading a bunch of his Patreon posts... he's still there... which is weird. I would have thought he would have been booted because of the incest. I know others have been kicked off for the same thing. Anyways, thanks again for bringing this to my attention.

The only game I can think of that let's you choose your age is Hentai High School+. At least I think you can choose your age in that. Been a while since I've played it. Not a very common feature this is though.

I don't know this game, is it any good?

 

[Rad_eater]

More options for customization is usually a good thing. Helps let players shape the world to their liking.

I think it's quite good. It's a sandbox game where you play as the principle of a highschool with the objective of corrupting all of the students. The main drawback is that all of the images used are just random hentai images taken from the internet. None of them are made specifically for the game.

I can't think of any examples that haven't already been said, but I love having this option.

yeah, that kills it for me

I think it's great despite that drawback but you're also not missing out on much. It's one of those 0 structure do whatever you want games. Kind of like Rogue like evolution if you know what I mean.

 

[DNS2022]

Kind of surprised of the amount of people that seem to be negative about it.
I would think a majority would enjoy the entire 'daddy' thing on here as well as the female LI's being rather vocal no matter if they are younger.

Oh well, to each their own I suppose.

Still hope to see more suggestions of games where it's possible or that can be patched to have it in a meaningful way.
