discussion VN Ren'Py DAZ Hard to Love [v0.28 bugfix2] [Qori Gaming]

[hiwanee]

If developer decided to remake I assumed there has to be a reason
I would like to assume that they found a way to make renders faster so will be more fast updates in the future

 

[Jkrollin]

is this harem based VN?...

 

[TChavez01]

The image quality difference is negligible, so what gives?

 

[Redun]

Having played through the current remake, is it worth it to play through the pre remake part?
Enjoyed most things besides the flashbacks which mostly felt like they made it more chaotic, but everything looks great. But mostly wondering if it's just better to wait until theremake catches up or if it's worth it to play the original without feeling left unfullfilled by the point it jump over to the remake?

Overview:
Near-death experience usually forces many people to reminisce about their past, bright and happy memories. So does MC, reliving his most brilliant memory - his first love. And with old wounds still open and new yet to heal, Main Character is forced to go back to his parental house and his old dysfunctional family. Being stuck there, fighting demons of past and present, he wonders about love. Why did the girl he loved abandon him and their love child? Has she ever loved him? Is she alive and still remembers him? Should he move on and try to establish something new with someone else? Maybe with a woman he always looked up to? Or with his partners or friends? Someone else entirely? Or should he focus the rest of his life on raising his daughter right? Follow the MC on his paths of uncovering truths and fixing mistakes as he tries to sort out his love life and protect his daughter in Hard to Love.

Hi,
The term "Season 2" carries significant meaning. It not only marks the one-year anniversary since the release of the 0.01 version but also signifies a transformation in the game's internal structure. In "Season 2", I've overhauled the game's code entirely. This renewed, more systematic arrangement allows me to deliver an even more immersive and rewarding experience.
From version 0.05 onwards, I've introduced a new client. The original client for "Season 1", supporting versions 0.1 to 0.4, will remain available. This will be the case until I've reworked and integrated the episodes from 1 to 4 into what is now known as "Season 2". The new client is designed specifically for version 0.5 and subsequent versions.
As a result of some changes in the game's coding variables, you'll be asked to select your name again in the new client. Also, you'll be given the opportunity to revisit and confirm the key choices you made in the previous chapters. This adjustment is required only once, and I sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this might cause.
Looking back, I've learned so much from "Season 1", but I felt it didn't live up to the quality standards I set for myself. So, I decided to move away from "Season 1". This version, tagged as 0.042, is now considered deprecated due to numerous writing, rendering, and coding errors.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support as I work towards making this game the best it can be.

Due to the changes and updates in Ren'Py, there might be errors when loading savegames.
If that happens, please use the automatic savegames, which seem to be unaffected by this issue.

Gonna be honest. I dont like the remake. I dont like games that are getting reworked/remade when theyre not even finishied (im looking at you Summers Gone) also why they cut the content for the japanese thicc girl. She was the reason i was playing this game

 

[Republican Bear]

is this harem based VN?...

No you will have to pick one girl over the other to see the sex scenes and eventfully probably have to pick.

Right now there isn't to many consequences to sleeping with more then one LI.

 

[Cruddy]

Original progressed much further in the story. Remake only significant difference is that it has a bit of MC's backstory which honestly isn't that impactful.

Definitely agree. Don't forget to mention how stiff the sex scenes are with no animations now.

 

[fightno1]

Daughter so pretty, but why need remake?

 

[magicman9786]

So many remakes this year not complaining tho keep it going devs

 

[pollo250]

remake why ??? just for lurking more money

 

[dustbluemoon]

so are all the characters ridiculously proportioned or are there some real body types?

 

[numpodece]

the visual were good, why remake?

 

[Fecom]

Hmm I guess this is going on the backlog waiting for it to get better/finish

New Update is really good! Nice graphic and story!

 

[minime666]

It's like the film and music industry. Hard to do something inovative nowadays

 

[echilog]

Amber is one of the best models ever made

 

[fker]

Usually don't like the AI models. But this ones seems better. Was de original AI generated too, or was DAZ?

 

[maddenwizard]

Its being remade already?

 

[zark]

Can't get the patch.

 

[lillo]

Ok wait, so basically Season 1 finishes with v0.042 with the phone in dad's office, right? And after that there's Season2 currently at 0.062...Dunno why but for this game versions are a bit messing up with my brain Or maybe it's the heat
