Totally definitive, really absolute, final poll for my new game (public)
Hey guys,
I have received a LOT of messages about the last poll, saying it was either unclear or unfair (or both). I appreciate all the feedback, and want to make sure I do this as fair as possible. So please, put down your pitchforks, and give me one more chance ;)
Just to make it perfectly clear: I was using the working title MotH2, but all the games I proposed are new ideas, with a completely new cast. They just share the same engine and game style. I want to come up with new, interesting stories and characters. My apologies for the confusion. I know I can't please all of you, but whichever game wins, I promise I'll do my best to make it a great game!
So, having said that, one more time...
1. Bodyguard
You are a mature guy (between 30 and 40), working as a bodyguard.
After a wealthy businessman is killed, you are hired by his milf wife and 3/4 young girls to come live with them and keep them safe. Your job will be to drive and escort them to various activities, help them with all kinds of chores, and develop your relationship with them. But of course, there is much more to this story, than meets the eye…
Theme: contemporary
Character development: 5 out of 5
Sexual content: 5 out of 5
Main story: 4/5 out of 5
Gameplay: 1/2 out of 5
- Sandbox / non-linear
- More story-driven (unexpected twists, secrets, etc.)

2. Fantasy kingdom
You are a young/mature guy (between 20-40). After your father dies, you follow in his footsteps as the king of your country. You live with a milf queen and 2/3 young girls.
This will be a (fantasy) kingdom management game, containing diplomacy, exploration, trade and (possibly) turn-based warfare/combat. Appoint advisors, expand your army, and conquer new nations, to unlock new (differently themed) characters and content, each with their own storylines.

I love the idea of a game with more intricate gameplay. there are enough visual novels out there. Plus it make me work for the scenes and give me a sense of accomplishment that I earned it. The fantasy setting is just huge bonus in this case.
I picked the one with young/mature guy. Honestly, I'd prefer to play as a character that has more years ahead of them, lol.
I really care about a well-told story with simpler mechanics.
Maybe do a Fantasy Island like resort, when you have to build up the resort as you play along.

I went with bodyguard for this reason, management game, turn-based warfare/combat. Not saying there bad, just not my thing anymore.
I went with Bodyguard again because I prefer a strong storyline myself. But I could understand the gameplay being a powerful tool for immersion.
I vote gameplay!
Plenty of quality VNs out there, fewer "proper" games with H scenes...
In my defense any game you choose will have the support of the shear majority. But it was a bit of a jumble for me, that was only some constructive feedback for my part.
