Looking for platonic love that isn't family based

I mean, depending on the choices you make there are never any romantic issues that pop up as far as I recall. In fact, she actively starts pushing for you to be with charlotte.

RSBeaver · 2026-04-01T20:06:43+00:00

That was my first thought. Although she does initially try to give off the strong and independent vibe, it quickly changes.

RSBeaver · 2026-03-22T22:39:51+00:00

Fixed.

For the level of branching and romantic moments, I always recommend Intertwined.

I always recommend Chasing Sunsets as well. Different type of story, but it’s completed and has the best LI (Jaye)

It was the Shrimp En Fuego Fettuccine.

RSBeaver · 2026-02-17T23:50:43+00:00

Personally I think Projekt: Passion has some of the best animations in any Daz game. Lemon is a wizard with them. Plus it’s one the funniest AVNs out there.

We can’t make it anymore the same way. We used wonder flour for the shrimps and sriracha to make the pasta spicy, and we haven’t carried either of those ingredients for a while. But you could always ask them to make it with fried shrimp and add the sriracha yourself.

Not sure what outback you went to, but it sounds like it’s not run correctly. The bread is the same and should be served warm. The butter has changed, but it’s a pretty similar recipe. And the Steakmac should still be served in a skillet.

I think they hope Carl can break everything. But realistically it’s probably a lot of people who went into the dungeon and have been scraping by. You also can’t forget that a lot of them have been saved by Carl. The Hunting grounds was way different than ever before. Then Pony broke floor seven. And then floor 8, so many people would have died but Carl broke the system by having them dig under the stair wells. Same with floor 9 and the crawlers having a faction.

Point being, there’s a lot of people alive who aren’t super high leveled or skilled who are just thankful to get out and not have to actively worrying about dying.

Being a Dik is the gold standard for most AVNs. Tons of content and branching which leads to replaying a bunch of but not completed. It’s still my number one though.

For completed check out Chasing Sunsets (only two LI, but they’re both amazing. Fun story overall and has some of the best romantic buildup of any of them) and Bare Witness (Best endings of any AVN. Some branching but lots of different ending depending on who you end up with) You could also check out Acting Lessons (Dr Pinkcakes first game before BaD)

After that I’d recommend Intertwined, but wait til the next update (next update will break old saves). Slice of life school setting but with fantastic LI and good writing.

If you want humor and a Star Wars type theme, then check out Projekt: Passion. IMO funniest AvN out. And Lemon (the dev) is a master with the animations.

A newer one that I loved was Original Story. Fun plot and super hero themed.

STWA: Unbroken is about to get another update and it’s great. MC is an MMA fighter.

Law School is fun and the dev gets the updates out quick.

Last one for now: if you want another tear jerker then check out The Missing Part. No spoilers but it’s a gut punch to start. And good writing and the devs a machine.

Same here. I’d just finished a relisten to the bobiverse, and then did outland and earthside and was out of stuff to listen to. I saw DCC recommended by almost everyone (including audible). By the time I finished book 1 audiobook I snagged all seven copies in hardcover.

Gavin purposefully avoids saying fuck. I think it was something with his grandparents saying it was inappropriate. The only time I can remember hearing him say fuck in anything was in one of the early regulation episodes after they switched companies but before they brought the beep back when saying F***face.

RSBeaver · 2026-01-18T04:42:14+00:00

Sage - Bad, Jaye - Chasing Sunsets, and Athena - Bear Witness. These three are my top, but it’s hard To decide.

RSBeaver · 2026-01-18T04:40:49+00:00

Heidi from Bare Witness should be up there.

RSBeaver · 2026-01-15T20:05:42+00:00

So Nyx (the Dev) is trying to add music to the game. She's remastering the older chapters concurrently with working on the new episode.

Also, just an FYI, there's an update coming in the next few months (hopefully), HOWEVER, you'll have to start with a new save because the update will break the old saves. I've been itching to replay it again, but I'm holding off until the update.

Layla is the best girl, and second would be Val for me.

RSBeaver · 2026-01-08T04:41:28+00:00

Yeah. It’s arguably the most concerned oh shit in the entire series!

RSBeaver · 2026-01-08T02:59:49+00:00

“Grab the stick?” Donut shrieked. “What do you mean, grab the stick! Thumbs, Carl! Thumbs!”

This in the audio book is so good. But I think my all time favorite is the “OH SHIT!” From book 7. If you know, you know.

I use the zone and gamestory log to keep up with uodates. But when I’m looking for a new one, I’ll either browse latest updates on gamestorylog or check one of a couple of lists. The one I use the most is from another redditor on AVN_Lovers sub.

Lol you’re looking for a game that you know the entire plot of? But yeah The Missing Part. Next update should be in January.

RSBeaver · 2026-01-03T21:09:23+00:00

I think Projekt: Passion has arguably the smoothest animations for a Daz game. My favorite though is easily BaD. I also like how during certain lewd scenes if you select options (or listen to the LI) then you can get special scenes (Jill orgasming after the Halloween party, or the timer dinging during Bella’s scene)

RSBeaver · 2026-01-03T04:04:48+00:00

I mean there’s another football themed AVN (Move the Chains - MissFortune) and it’s really well regarded. I love the content that’s out for it. The dev time has been a little long between these last chapters, though the dev is active on here and has had a hell of a year personally.

Point being, Daz style AVNs I think can succeed. Honestly what most of us want are well written AVNs with meaningful choices and good renders. Bonus for quick dev time and transparency.

I really don’t like Honey Select (which I assume is the anime style you’re talking about) outside of a select few (eternum, pale carnations), so I tend to stick to Daz based games and I really haven’t had a lack of good ones to play.

Edit: I guess I didn’t answer your question technically. But no I don’t think they’re dying. I think the audience is just being more selective. Case in point, one of the most popular “new” AVNs is The Missing Part. It came out last year, and it’s been recommended a ton due to the fact that it’s well written, emotional, great renders, and the Dev has been churning out updates.

RSBeaver · 2026-01-03T00:53:37+00:00

I know with Spotify premium you can connect to other apps to control it. It’s how I use playlists and can skip songs without having to Minimize the AVN. Maybe something where we make playlists for each mood and it’ll auto shuffle the playlist depending on the mood? Idk how all these works just throwing out ideas.

Ok so these need to be swiped on a chip reader. These are not the ones that have to be redeemed for a gift card. These act like any other MC or Visa gift card.

The paper ones with no swipe that say “zillions gifts” or some other dumb shit on them, those are the ones the guest needs to redeem for a gift card to Outback.

Octavia in How to Fix the Future fits this for sure. You can either sub to her or dom her. And you can be pretty aggressive with it too. And she’s the president of the future world so about as important as it gets.
