VN Ren'Py Stormside [v0.23.1.4] [Atemsiel]

[sabishiiryuu]

Not a review per se but rather a compliment to Atemsiel for his sex scenes. The majority of games on this site - including the absolute top-rated ones - suffer from average to downright abysmal dialogues during intimate scenes.
I can only count a handful of games that have it down very good and Stormside surprised me quite a lot.

The animations and fetishes aside, it's very important to have the kind of writing that turns the player on as well and you strike a pretty good balance there with the lines from both the female and the male characters. It's not eloquent and it really doesn't need to be. Straight to the point and short bursts of affection and lust are way more impactful and realistic.
I don't usually comment about this stuff but the few lewd scenes I saw so far had much better writing than what I'm used to seeing here on average to the point that it stood out to me and made me want to comment on it.

Anyway! Good luck with your game. You have a new fan.

Yeah the character writing is very good in the sex scenes. They all behave very differently from each other, like how Cassie is just a massive horndog, Riley is more romantic, Hikari is just precious, and Sasha is just a cool sort of FWB. I originally voted for Cassie and Riley on the 'best girl' poll, but I sort of think Sasha might replace them in the future. We'll see how things turn out

 

[ppbeater]

this didnt happen before not sure what caused it, not sure if anyone else has had this happen

 

[ppbeater]

couple more bugs, not sure if theyre limited to the gallery or not, but fucking riley in desperate riley causes an error, & spanking akemi leads to a bug asking for your name in the middle & a dialogue repeat near the end

Is this some kind of mistake, or she lying? BTW, I kinda noticed that this delevoper either has no idea what hymen is or has some kind of allergy, if not disgust, towards this important part of every 100% virgin. If virgins don't have hymen or break or pierce it with dildo, I don't think it's fair to call them 100% virgins, more like half/virgins, but that is just my point of view.

If everything that I can logically reason about (the graphics, the never ending intro, the lack of sex etc) is telling me that this game should suck major ass, then why does it kick the aforementioned ass so much instead?

It is so confusingly awesome.

WTF you talking about? Many girls that play sports lose them and may never have used a Dildo they are still virgins. Your think8ing is so wrong. Those who ride horses often break hymens, those who do acrobatics/gymnastics, those who do any real active sports. Seriously your thinking is so out of there.

As I mentioned before, it's just my point of view, literally, and I don't force my opinion on you. PS: And I mostly talked about those who break their hymens with penetration using a sex toy or something similar; they are half virgins for me; they are still virgins, but not the same as those who you mentioned (who break hymen during sports activities or something), or 100% with hymens. But seriously, that is just my point of view; if you don't like it, I don't give a fuck about it; that's just it. I'm not going to argue with you or anyone else about it, because it is not even the whole purpose of my previous post. I wanted to point out the mistake in the Magistate menu, which you obviously don't care about; your main focus was out of there.

Maybe one is not related to the other? Coinsidense?

All this stuff has been extensively discussed on the discord. Regarding the Magistrate's menu, try the following:

Anyone with a save file where the stats appear to be wiped will just need to go into the rename menu on the phone (Big letter R) and toggle sex stats wiped back to off, and that should fix it. New saves should no longer wipe all the stats, nor should they for some reason display Sasha as not a virgin by default.

As to a hymen being present or not, I believe it is the dev's intention that the virginity stat relate solely to physical penetration of the vagina by a human penis. This is a porn game and dildos, vegetables and other inanimate objects are being given a pass. The girls have not been, and will not be, inspected to ascertain whether their hymens are still intact. I think most of us can live with that compromise. If not just ignore the menu and stats.

Thanks, mate. I will check this out later, I think. Regarding hymens, I can live with that too, even if I disagree with some choices this developer made.

Regarding the hymen thing, I remember Atemsiel mentioning something about fantasy game bullshit and that's how he wants it, which I can respect lmao

Her going super saiyan and the headmaster helicoptering his way in genuinely had me laughing out loud as well. Love the comedy in this game.

I love this game!

wtf lol bro doesn't know how hymens work.

The whole 'breaking the hymen = losing virginity' thing isn't necessarily true. Hymens can vary in size and shape, and if a woman is sufficiently aroused, their hymen can stay intact after penetration. Hymens are not a reliable way to test a woman's virginity for this reason, as they don't always tear from sex, and they can tear from basically any other form of strenuous activity in the area.

The fuck is a half virgin
